Did no one remember this at all? Seriously.

Like Mr. GOH! said, Anders went from one of my favorite characters in DA1/Awakening (dude was hilarious and fun) to just downright abominable (see what I did there) in DA2. Sometimes I wish it was a PnP RPG so I could just instakill/sneak attack him from behind to end the party's misery.

Comes with free pre-order "National Service" DLC if you sign up as a male. Majority of reviews say it's mostly junk/shovelware that ruins the experience of the game since it takes place just as things are opening up, though some seem to enjoy the experience more than others.

The addition of a crouch button that activates a stealth mode. While in stealth mode, Arno will crouch and be harder to detect.

Because Legend of Zelda is a Caucasian/Western IP, amirite?

+1 just for FSN reference.

That was interesting and inspiring as heck. That said, I was mildly disappointed that there wasn't any talk of the gameplay in Black Box. I know, that's not what this is about, but after reading about Train, I wanted to see how the gameplay would deal with the problem of evil and so on.

I don't know if it's sad or not that I can recognize the matches most of the commentary in the video originates from.

I understand what you're saying, though the setting looks Nepalese (Himalayan) to me. The thing is, he doesn't seem vague at all to me in that I don't believe he looks anything like someone from the Indian subcontinent.

I definitely agree with the whitewashing and even the features (the Ghurkas I've met in and out of the army were all dark), though his name is pretty legit. Ajay is an Indian name while Ghale is also the surname of a badass Nepalese Ghurka. Who knows, you might get Ghurka training or something similar as a replacement

But that's only in America, isn't it?

Did you even read the rest of the thread before typing in your comment? Thanks for demonstrating how 'far-sighted' you are. Not every word has the same perjorative power in a different culture.

Interesting. He made his own engine too, in the end. Any names of games/companies that you've worked on/with that you could drop?

You got me until "short haired reverse albino elderly woman." Well played, good sir.

Yes, you make an exceptional point on that. Although it still seems like it's only offensive for Asians in the West, as another commenter has pointed out. I doubt anyone in Hongkong or Singapore would even blink at the term.

Orient is a little more specific and flashy than East Asia, in my opinion, but okay, I guess. Probably because one of the more famous Chinese songs back in the day was "Pearl of the Orient," and that just sounds sweeter than "Pearl of East Asia." Sounds like a bloody bubble tea drink, if you ask me.

See, I would like a

I really need to watch that movie someday.

Oh, now that is a good answer. I can definitely see how that would work, seeing as we Asians (or at least, back home) do the same with nearly everything "Western". In fact, at most Singaporean food centers, the stall that sells stuff like steaks and pork chops as opposed to stuff like fishball noodles or rice dishes
