Bioshock Infinite was about how a self-contained white supremacist quasi-theocracy would inevitably end in tears but then decided to “both-sides” the shit out of the situation and generally sympathize with the white supremacist theocracy (to the point of making the main character be an AU version of the lead theocrat…

And most humans have time for a grand total of 1 or 2 of them

To her credit, uninteresting and banal is leagues ahead of “try too hard, be skin-crawling levels of obnoxious, and show very obviously that you have faced zero consequences in your life,” which most Twitch streamers exhibit.

This person is the poster child of all the inherently uninteresting, banal ‘influencers’ that somehow became mystifyingly famous in the past 10+ years. I’ve heard her talk, watched a stream- and to this day her appeal still escapes me.

Theory channel and Youtube Grandpa MatPat announces that he is stepping down from hosting his numerous theory channels(which started with GAMEtheory) and crickets from this site

Looks like the servers are already back up lol, the point stands but as you posted this article people are on, maybe should’ve posted this hours ago if you were looking for a slam dunk.

I swear someone on the inside is trying to make sure this fails.

I have no sympathy here. If you’re stupid enough to give a company 30 dollars for less than a handful of days, you’re already fleecing yourself, might as well have the company fleece you too with subpar service.

Exactly not all romances need to lead to fucking.  And frankly unless it moves the actual story forward IMO it’s kind of pointless.

I’m not really against romance in my RPGs, but it seems like many times there isn’t a good payoff or add to things. I think Baldur’s Gate 3 does it really well with their various romances and don’t even mind *most* of how thirsty everyone is for my Tav/Durge (Wyll’s dance scene usually irks me because it appears at…

I nearly gave up on the game after about 4 hours because every single companion was trying to screw me. It was extremely off putting. We have tadpoles in our heads that are going to turn us into mind flayers, but sure keep hitting on me. I pushed through and it got better, but that beginning section was rough. 

So you admit to not having actually played the game then, sad for you. Because if you had then you’d know that right before any of these scenes there are good Obvious options to just remain friends with the companions.

I’m fine with this. In fact, I would love to see more rpgs explore relationships that are not romantic. 

My first exposure to DOOM was at my dad’s office. There for a Christmas party, he wanted to show me what one of his co-workers was playing in his office, and it was goddamn DOOM.

Agreed. BG3 is one of my new favorite games, but the overly thirsty companions and jiggle/dangle physics were just too much.

Thank fuck honestly, that’s refreshing. Not every damn rpg needs a dating sim built in.

Lot of fond memories of playing Doom and Wolfenstien that I secretly installed on my dad’s work computer without him knowing. Good times. 

Wow. That explains a lot. Thank you for the info, I had no idea.

Don’t care, not buying a full price game with micro's anymore. Fuck what the industry has become. 

I do love the low commitment aspect. I believe they’ve crafted an experience that will demand pretty much 0 hours of my time. :P
