I wouldn’t say it’s entirely been a bad thing. Just... mostly, for a while, and now there's no way to go back so we've got to make the most of it.

Dungeons & Dragons is a game that favors specialization, and the bard was meant to be a jack-of-all-trades and master of none. As a result, it was regularly mocked by serious players looking to play mechanically optimized characters. That weakness is a running gag in Rich Burlew’s web comic The Order Of The Stick,…

Just a heads up: If you get shitty or mean in these comments I’ll remove them. Go be an asshole somewhere else. 

I knew him in high school. He was an entitled douche who ran because his father had the position before him. I can still picture the DUNCAN HUNTER signs with the tiniest little “jr” on them. I doubt most of the people in that district even realized who they were voting for. He was always one of those people who was…

Pumped for this! I’m eager to see Osiris being redeemed. Not just in the lore, but his expansions was...well, disappointing, and he wasn’t formed into the most interesting character. I really love the voice actor though, and I’m hoping he’s utilized much better in this expansion. Can’t wait! 

Battleborn was a good game that came out at a bad time and didn’t do enough to set itself apart. I haven’t played it in probably a year and a half, but I wish it would have been more successful. 

I really enjoyed this game. Heck, when they first came out, I preferred it to Overwatch.

Well that’s a bummer...despite 2Ks nonexistent marketing and Pitchford’s inability to keep his mouth shut and sour people on it before it was even out, Battleborn is a pretty damn good game that deserved better than what it got.

RIP Battleborn. RIP Evolve.

As someone who was once part of a similar insurrection against arrogant, incompetent, and condescending management, I want to applaud all of y’all for today’s showing. I’m sure you’re simultaneously enjoying the fun of mutiny while also understanding the risk. Please also know how much it means to us here in the feebl…

Can you let me know when you will be returning to sports coverage so I can go back to checking in once or twice per day? I have a lot to do today at work and all of these posts about non-sports topics are distracting because I Must Read Every Single One of Them. Whereas with the sports stuff I really only care if its…

And despite your corporate overlords telling you to stick to sports, I hope Deadspin never does because

and I can’t emphasize this enough

I come to Deadspin BECAUSE YOU DON’T JUST STICK TO SPORTS

They actually do have a team interally that plays the game to specifically try and find these kinds of things.

It’s almost like—and brace yourself for this—a big new expansion just came out and the game just went free to play, making it one of the top games on Steam right now...

Everything in this graphic.

I think I rode with that Odin on the MARTA...

I’m nowhere near pro when it comes to photos but I still wanted to share some of my favorites from this year.
