That’s exactly where I’m at with it, and I find it weird that the morality of the Fireflies is apparently just never questioned.

It really is weird how the perception of Joel seems to change entirely on what online space you’re in, and neither type ever seems to get it right. Places like this and r/gamingcirclejerk see Joel as this horrific brutal monster worse than David, while r/gaming and right-wing YouTube chuds think he’s this morally…

It’s...LU BU!!!!

Yeah, I think Inquisition definitely threw the baby out with the bathwater. DA2 had a more stylized design, a focus on interpersonal relationships over time and changing geopolitics, etc., while Inquisition dialed back the stylization, made everyone “realistic” again in terms of appearance, and you were saving the…

For as rushed as the game part of the game was, I think DA2 is still one of the most unconventional games BioWare ever made, partly because of its laser focus on one small area, its history, and stakes that didn’t involve saving the world. The entire point of the game was that there was never a villain. There were a…

That’ll all have to wait for the Punch That Horse Jerk DLC.

“Virulently homophobic region censors lesbian kiss on TV” is so unsurprising that it’s barely news.

God, I had completely forgotten about that - as ridiculous as SF stereotypes still are, they used to be SO MUCH MORE. And he’s still the most Russian life form on the planet.

This doesn’t seem like people getting their hopes up based on a bare minimum of evidence to suit whatever their head canon would be, though, it seems like the writers and director deliberately calling attention to things that will be important next season. It’s a weird place to complain about fans being unreasonable…

That seems unlikely in this case, though. The series has been painstakingly attentive to detail when it comes to adapting the game. Why wouldn’t this specific instance “pan out they way they want it to,” and what else do you think they’re going to do with it? I just don’t see them dropping a major character from the…

I figured it was supposed to be Dina (the only person I still liked by the end of TLOU2), since we got to see Shimmer too. Several nods to the second game/season.

Romance in Persona is and always has been an afterthought at best. It’s optional, has no impact on the story, happens late in the game anyway if it happens at all, and is transactional because of the structure of the social links. I never went for any of them, because the characters all work far better as friends.

I always liked how technically, Law & Order, Homicide, and The X-Files share a continuity thanks to that one episode.

Jeez, even DBD has an evil tech billionaire villain now?

Plus he’s simping hard for Tanith.

Liam gets the stink-eye from me for his snippy attitude toward Vetra, the best spiky girlfriend. And Garrus is definitely in the top spot. I don’t know, maybe I just have a thing for turians.

Which is especially weird because the right used to be the ones freaking out about Harry Potter. I think people forget a couple things about the series. I worked in an Amazon warehouse (back when they were basically all books and a few CDs) when the first book came out, and we’d pick pallets of Philosopher’s…

Plus, Cyberpunk 2077 had them, I guess they’re just not allowed in fantasy medieval Poland?

It’s a literal children’s game, based on a series of children’s books, on Twitch, a platform with a lot of children. Of course it’s “dominating.” I’d be surprised if it weren’t.

Well, not everything can have water physics as good as Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance.
