I agree with you on most parts, although I think a lot of it has to do with how balanced they wanted to make the game. There are no clear cut "best" weapons (I heard a lot of people saying the carbine was OP, but if you're not out in the open a lot, close range weapons will win every time), the maps don't have many…

Agreed. It didn't feel like they gave a crap about their mom at that moment; a throwaway line about missing their mom but knowing their dad needed to move on would've helped. Or...pretty much ANYTHING besides how it was handled.

Yeah, I was telling my girlfriend last night that I figured they'd have been better off doing a couple hour episodes (or at least one more 30 minute one).

I think the only thing that takes it too far at times is the health penalty when you die as a hollow. To penalize someone more and more the more they die...That's a little bit much. I guess the thing is, I'm approaching this as someone who beat the first DS game a couple times (played through the game twice, and then…

I personally just thought the way the episode handled it was weird. To have the kids instantly offer up, "hey, this isn't about Mom, it's about Aunt Robin. And we like her, so go get her!" was a little off-putting to me. Mom just didn't get her fair due, I didn't feel. Aside from that, I have no issues with the…

I agree with you (although I didn't follow much of the Barney-Robin arc, so there are obviously gaps in my knowledge). I didn't think the finale was bad per se, but I do think it felt rushed.

I was gonna say this. I think with JRPGs (as with most other things), as the install base of consoles has grown, and as gaming has become more mainstream, more people are being introduced to JRPGs, and consequently, more people are buying JRPGS.

For the record, I'm not trying to convince you to like Titanfall, nor do I object to your preferring a Battlefield-type game; liking what you like is cool. I'm simply telling you what Titanfall is and isn't.

Any game can be described as "_______ with _______." If you haven't played it (clearly you haven't), that's cool, but reducing games to a formula almost never tells the full story. After all, Mass Effect is just Gears of War with RPG elements.

You're pretty much 100% wrong about everything you just said about Titanfall (you also misspelled it, putting an 'i' where the first 'l' should be). The reason that Titanfall is so fun is precisely because Titans are just as useful as pilots. Whether you're holding a hardpoint in your Titan, putting it on auto to…

It doesn't, but you felt the need to explain why you wanted things for free, so I felt the need to explain what I felt Blizzard DID do for free, and why they don't owe anyone a free expansion. Now, do I think $40 is steep for the expansion? Yes, definitely. But I don't think it necessarily needed to be free.

Their attempt at making things right was getting rid of the auction house, and instituting loot 2.0, which I've read from a good amount of people does indeed fix much of the problem with D3. I don't think they owe anything more, especially giving that the game was never "bad" to begin with (it functioned properly, but…

Even so, I would've liked more. And if he "invokes" these terrors, it would've been nice to give that some type of representation in the game (maybe the environment looks like it's dangerous/has enemies, but doesn't?).

I didn't mind Diablo's female form, although I would've liked him/her to be a little more terrifying. I thought both Azmodan and Belial (especially Belial) were well done, and while Diablo was easily the coolest looking of the 3, wasn't necessarily the most intimidating one. And...he's the Lord of Terror.

I skipped AC3 because I had a friend who was a big fan of the series, and didn't like AC3. Actually, that only made me decide to put off purchasing the game. I ended up putting it off until AC4 came out, at which point #1 I had an XB1, so I wanted something new and shiny for it (and that would be AC4) and #2 people…

That's how you know it's the future!

That would certainly be nice.

I skipped AC3 after I felt disappointed by how half-assed Revelations felt. AC4 is definitely an improvement, although how much you like it will depend on how much you enjoy the ship-sailing aspect. It's probably worth a try though, for sure.

Yeah, this is how I feel too. AC4 felt like a pirate game to me, which happened to have an AC-related storyline. You wanna do pirates, go all-out.

I honestly didn't pay attention to what people labeled each gen, because I didn't (and still don't) care. I personally think that the attitude towards the PS4 and XB1 is still that the consoles are "next gen," so I'm fine with referring to it as such. But given that there are people like you out there that AREN'T fine…
