Well at least it means they’re ACTUALLY working on it. I think that’s probably what they wanted to tell, that development on it has indeed started.

It’s clearly the black marsh.

And then a few years from now an indie studio decides to tackle the genre by basically copying the old C&C games and strikes gold while doing it, while EA are left shaking their heads wondering what went wrong.

As happened with Dungeon Keeper and the eventual revival the genre got with War for the Overworld/Dungeons.

Well, my favorite sims-related activity is talking about how shitty Sims 3 was so you got me here, Gita. You got me good.

The logic for bringing Janine and Emily back is completely incoherent - not only are they confirmed to be dangerous to themselves and others, including any potential babies, they’re now physically dangerous to any child they might conceive after being poisoned by the Colonies.

I think she might actually be self-aware enough for it. Let’s remember Serena is far from a bimbo - she’s pictured in flashbacks as an actually studious, professional woman who more likely than not holds one (or several) third or fourth-level degrees. She’s no stranger to academia, so recognizing she needs an editor…

Inb4 expansion only comes with Winter, Spring, and Summer while if you want Autumn you need to buy a separate game pack that’ll release a month later for $20.

I loved The Regulators, couldn’t stand Desperation and didn’t finish it. But many people seem to like Desperation better :(

I think this depends. I’ve been reading King since the turn of the millenia and, while some of his books (It, Carrie, The Stand, The Eyes of the Dragon, Insomnia, All Dark No Stars, The Talisman) I consider masterpieces or near-masterpieces, there are others that uh... nope, they aren’t good.

As you mention, From a…

That’s a shame. I can confirm Caliban’s War has two amazing female characters among its main cast :(

I really liked this game. It’s precisely my kind of action romp with short-ish, gorgeously designed stages, the storyline was interesting if not ground-breaking and the protagonist was fine.

It was also the first game I played in full 3D when I got my 3D monitor, and one of the (admittedly few) outstanding 3D…

While you raise an interesting point of not using time/value as an indicator since it says nothing of the experience, this only works if you’re looking for games as experiences, and if you see them as art. Which most of the market doesn’t - it sees them as commodities.

It’s why people don’t mind paying the same to…

With SE it’s impossible to know. Yes, none of the KH games are on PC today, but for all we know they might be available next week. I mean, except for FFXV and the DQ games SE has been unceremoniously dropping their back catalog on Steam with no warning or anything.

FFX, FFXII, Chrono Trigger, and others just appeared…

Actually, Rage didn’t come first. Rage came out in... 2011? Borderlands came out in like 2008.

Netflix already has streaming rights for it in other territories (it’s in Latin America, for example,) so perhaps they have an edge if they want to secure US streaming rights or even outright buy the series and continue it.

Well, this is all based on Polish folklore so it’s safe to assume the vast majority of the characters are white, Geralt among them, and even in the books very few characters are explicitly mentioned to be of color. But that’s not an issue, or is it? The writers could choose to make the cast a bit more diverse or not,…

Yeah I find it sad and hilarious that people are being racist against the writing room for a series where one of the main narrative themes is precisely racism (and not precisely from a racist point of view.)

It’s like all these idiots missed the point when reading the books/playing the games.

The Last Wish is probably a must, considering it’s the basis of Geralt’s relationship with Yennefer to the point where even the video games addressed that particular one.

They could have made it a pay-what-you-want with $5 base, like Humble does with bundles (thou their base is $1, but let’s not stiff charities here). They would’ve made A LOT more than selling them at $15/copy, since while many people would’ve paid $5, many would’ve also paid hundreds or even thousands.

They also…

Even powerful computers today can have trouble if you give them Sims 3 + all expansions + a bunch of store content. It was ridiculously resource hungry, Sims 4 is clearly the superior game if only because it’s actually optimized.
