Because I've never played a beta that capped my level. The only times in the past I have had my level capped were during early access periods before launch. Every other time there's been a limiting factor on a Beta I played, it's been due to locked-off areas, which they already had in place.

As long as Wolvy gets a proper not-just-a-cameo appearance. They're the team that helped get him on his feet after Weapon X, after all! Well, Heather Hudson did at least.

Howard the Duck is a spoiler? Man, now I know everything about... uh...

I'm 33, and was a big comic nerd growing up. Nowadays, I just stick to movies, shows and games. I had never heard of Guardians of the Galaxy until the movie was announced. Rocket Raccoon was only recently introduced to me in the Marvel Heroes MMOARPG, so he was the only "familiar" face in the GoG movie trailers.

Yeah, it was the late beta of the revamped 2.0 version of the game. So they had a lot of bridges to mend.

Because it was capped at Level 8, rather than capped just by content. Not that I was sure either way, but I could certainly see why.

Final Fantasy MMOs have always broken the rules, though. FFXI was the only MMO to exist on 360 because Microsoft let them break the rules to get it past certification so they'd have a strong, known near-launch title. FFXIV originally launched as a barely-polished turd, and lost a lot of goodwill from their fanbase…

Agreed. I don't have a lot of friends I actively game with, but I'm a social gamer. If I have the opportunity to group up with people to do stuff together, I want to. I'm that guy shouting in public chat "Level X Class LFG doing anything."

Many stories are similar if you boil them down to simple tropes. Joseph Campbell's Power of Myth goes into this in detail, discussing the Heroic Journey and how almost any story can be considered "derivative" if you expect something new and fresh every time.

Cross-platform development is much easier these days. There's no reason a new-gen game should be "crippled" by toning down the graphics for old-gen systems. It's like saying PC titles are crippled because your PC exceeds recommended specs; you just turn the graphics higher than Medium and hey, it looks better!

They're publishing this, not developing it. It takes nothing away from their in-house development.

I thought it was an interesting twist on stale mechanics, and the story was compelling. I'm not sure what issues others had with it, but I don't tend to read many reviews. I wouldn't say it was a great game, but it was definitely good.

I think the Grammar Nazis hire the Spelling Police for lesser service.

I enjoy them for some of the actual flubs with props or costuming or incongruous story, but hate all the opinion-based focus on cliches or character development they wished had happened differently.

She starts the game as the spoiled rich girl who loves history, gets put through crap and at the end comes out the grizzled Tomb Raider. The upcoming sequel ought to give us more of that, but you must have noticed as the game progressed she got far less frail.

First you better stop waving it like a feather-duster.

I know, I spend every day cursing my Xbox One purchase because I can't stand outside and play video games. I don't know how much longer I can go on.

You missed the part where I said I haven't played Zelda since Ocarina. Implying I don't scrounge through the lore or read wikis about games I haven't played. Those games never made it clear, and any name differences I attributed to the ghostly form vs physical form.

AC4's sailing and combat was vastly improved. I avoided AC3's naval missions as well. Tripping around the Caribbean taking over naval forts and plundering cargo ships while being chased by bounty hunters is fun, even without the Creed bits.

You're kidding, right? This series hasn't changed? How many have you played?
