My parents own so much stuff that they’re convinced are worth a bunch of money that is just someday going to be a burden on me to get rid of.

This is pretty much what has happened with all of their attempts at inserting real people in, just skinning over their default models. I’d guess it’s so they don’t have to worry about resizing hitboxes.

You’ll have settle with being matched up against Gaga playing Bayonetta in Smash.

The Beanie Babies never left... they evolved. 

Nah, it is just a bad game. A lot of us just see that, since we literally suffered through the game.

Turn based isn’t even the problem. The combat is too simplistic and doesn’t feel good. Part of that is animations, items, equipment, skills/spells (or lack thereof).

Imagine if your favorite pizza place that you’ve been going to for decades suddenly changed their menu to sushi.

I don’t know about this. I really doubt intimacy coordinators can really stop a bear from doing what it wants if it decides to go off script.

It's exactly like that from start to finish. Believe me, it does not get better. I love action combat final fantasy. But this is their worst attempt at it full stop. I think people are in genuine denial about this game. I really do. There's no way.

Right, and as we all know, videogames aren’t for girls

The ethos is “Oppenheimer will bring clicks but we’re primarily a gaming culture site. What extremely strained metaphor can we use to farm some search engine optimization, since we probably shouldn't just publish a post that says "Oppenheimer" 500 times in a row?"

Wait, so WHAT exactly makes this film a videogame? Because tickets were scalped, like graphics cards? Because Kojima tweeted about it?

Not entirely though. I am a woman who never played with Barbies and I was there on opening day. It just looked *good*. The story, the actors, the director — I knew as soon as I heard “Closer to fine” in the trailer, it was going to have exactly the right sense of humour about itself. At this point it’s also a word of…

I went and saw Barbie because it looked good 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m at a point in my life where I’d be significantly more interested in this franchise if there were some way to turn the fatalities off entirely. It’s got this great campy 90s flick vibe and some good humor and action scenes sprinkled throughout... and then occasionally we have to watch someone have their face ripped…
