I'd like to see some of those Elseworlds versions of DC characters, specifically Batman. It'd be cool to see Gotham By Gaslight steampunk Batman or the Cthulhu-hunting Batman from Matt Wagner's story.

This is surprising, considering the number of memes that have appeared since BL2 released last year

That cover art is gorgeous and surprisingly subdued, considering the kind of drek that passes for covers in North America.

I'm talking about the incendiary nature of that statement, as I'm pretty sure he did say "all game designers suck" the first time around. The hostility of that sentiment, regardless of its deeper intent, was blatantly obvious in how reductive it was.

Yes

It wasn't taken out of context, because that's literally what he said. It's the intent of his comment that's been lost in a wave of noise.

Right, but is that an indictment of game developers or the audience? Both sides of the camp know that typically, sequels are better mechanically because they're iterative products that fix what is broken while improving on what works. We keep getting reminded that games are a business first and foremost, and I'm…

I've played lots of games where I was either too lazy to read pop-up dialogs or felt information about certain mechanics was not properly conveyed. I'd be curious to know how many of these review guides try to cover these aspects in order for the reviewer to "play the game as intended". Are these kinds of oversights…

I was thinking the same thing.

Ooh, you good.

I'd also like to see games that remove any mention of racism and class struggle and instead replace them with one big egalitarian fictional construct that doesn't offend my personal narrative.

Huh? What was it about his comment that was misogynistic?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm sick of hearing about someone's "vision" when used to dodge the actual issue at hand. Triple-A studios claim they're a business one second, and suddenly they're auteurs the next.

That's why it's so cool of them to curb their murderous impulses so's they can shoot at these kids when they're of age

Wait, are we taking Metacritic seriously? I thought we all hated Metacritic

This actually looks like a fun throwback. Color me pleasantly-surprised pink

You must be new here

This is some seriously repugnant shit (the comments below, not the article). I'm glad I clicked on this link, but I'm sorry I scrolled down.

The digression on seeing Anya on the image was going somewhere, but you stopped. It felt like you were biting your tongue there.
