Hades gives you many many way to make yourself more powerful, permanently. Give it a chance.

This post is even cringier than the video

Quite. The shame this poor woman’s mother would be feeling were she real, I cannot bare the thought!

To me, the tone is just very off/odd. It sounds sort of like a kid’s show or something. Very quippy, cheesy, etc. It feels very cliché, kinda “wacky”.

Same. The trailer was no more cheesy/silly/bad/whatever than your average game trailer (not that I oppose having a little fun with it!).

Yea I’m not seeing what exactly about the trailer is triggering people to mock....is the protagonist thinking over her situation too meta or something?

Game looks fun and I thought the trailer was fine in that it got me interested in the game. *shrugs*

Why do I get the feeling that nerfs across a long enough timeline makes everyone unhappy? Balance seems to make everything samey. (said as someone who doesn’t play multiplayer, so I honestly only have the reactions to nerfs to go by - which is schadenfreude.)

There’s also a new mysterious NPC who is supposed to help you advance Varre’s questline without wading into multiplayer at all, though in typical FromSoftware fashion no word on where to find this useful fellow.

What the fuck is this website anymore?

First weekday of the month, which is when they always report on gamepass. You new to the site?

Just the daily “Shit on Gamepass because Kotaku must get Sony kick backs” article

They report on Game Pass additions and removals every month when they announce them. You didn’t have to open the article. 

Ghost recon wildlands is a better game than boyfriend dungeon.

It turns out Ethan Gach isn’t either Zack Zwiezen or John Walker and Kotaku isn’t a monolith culture where everyone has the same opinion. Sure, G/O Media may have worn other parts of its businesses down to a nub, but pieces are written by individuals.

Not sure how that really relates, considering this is a piece about the game NOT being fun BECAUSE someone dumped a shit ton of money into it...

“Arguably, we’ve already had the “perfect” D&D movie thanks to Peter Jackson’s adaptations of The Lord Of The Rings in the 2000s—which, if I’m being honest, do chart a bit too close to “action movie” for my taste”

That’s because every major publication is rating the single player design and gameplay, and none are reviewing it from the sole perspective of the extra, completely optional PVP experience and balance

Legit very funny to me that the people yelling about PvP are probably the same ones who lecture others about the difficulty of FS games. 

I’ve got 135 hours in to the game and still haven’t messed with PvP.  I don’t really have any interest to, either.  I finally got to the Land of the Giants at level 107.  I kinda suck at the game, but I love it except for that god damned forsaken lands section....
