On the third play through

Luckily, being in the minority doesn’t make one wrong.

And I would add to my own comment that if you need any tangible data to be convinced that Netflix’s CEO is right, just look at the scores on Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes. It’s really all the numbers you need. We’ll call this the reversed Last Jedi effect.

Netflix Knows what you’ve been watching.

The thing is, he’s right.

$50, I believe. For the Royal Edition including base game, season pass, and royal pack. That’s honestly a helluva deal if you never got the game in the first place.

I’m wrapping my head around the pricing but here’s what I’ve come up with.

It’s $50. Meanwhile it costs $45 for the season pass and Royal Pack upgrade in addition to what you paid for the main game. I guess that’s the cost of not waiting.

For reference, that particular Pepe is a fairly popular emote called EZ, from an extremely popular Twitch browser extension called Better Twitch TV. The poster is a reference to the sort of thing that Twitch chat would spam at the end of a competitive match (EZ because GG EZ, and then a clap emote because, well,…

I realize Pepe got a lot of recognition from the ADL’s classification as a hate symbol, but there’s a clear distinction that should be made between his usage by the alt-right and his relationship to popular media. Even the ADL admits that, “The majority of uses of Pepe the Frog have been, and continue to be,…

Jason, I think you and I have polar opposite tastes when it comes to RPGs that aren’t the Suikoden or Trails series.

I agree that the story didn’t pack the same emotional depth that XC 1 did, but it’s a hell of a lot stronger than XC X. Some characters were enjoyable, but most importantly the game play was streamlined into this buttery smooth amalgamation of auto to arts to special attacks with the ultimate build up to the chain…

Tales of Berseria is the best Tales game since Symphonia, so you might actually want to finish it.

Xenoblade 2 is easily the best JRPG of the year. Without question in my opinion. I loved Tales of Berseria, Persona 5, and Nier:Automata—but Xenoblade stands above them all by quite a large margin. Definitely play it if you haven’t.

I’m amused with how much you hate XC2.

If on the front page of Kotaku, the first blurb of the article stopped after stating it will cover an unresolved plot point, I’d be fine. I’m aware of the criticism of the game, just not the content. But the second sentence of the first paragraph appears when scrolling past it on the front page, so you don’t have to…

Goddamn it Jason, you have a spoiler in the first goddamn paragraph that appears on the front page. Some people have avoided virtually every article why we wait for a PC release

“Hey wait this isn’t Troy! Shit, how long were we in there?”

At the end of the day, this is Gazillion’s fault because it made a mediocre game and was terribly managed. And Disney finally decided they didn’t want to be part of that. I certainly feel bad for the devs involved, but they’re always at the mercy of management. Gazillion should have had other sources of revenue, like…

Not a huge fan of Disney, but before anyone goes off on this - this is Gazillion’s perpetually shitty management, not Disney.
