While I don’t disagree with the overall sentiments being expressed in this article. It’s really weird Ethan chose to use Pokemon Scarlett & Violet as his example of a marquee game on a competing platform considering the game was also derided at launch for being incredibly broken.

I’m just sitting here waiting for Sony to release a smaller version of the console.

All good changes, he definitely felt clunky and very underwhelming as a healer.

Reminds me of when Stranger Things season 4 came out, and revealed that Eleven’s stunted grammar wasn’t a result of being raised in captivity since all the other kids spoke normally.

Not sure if every astromech has thrusters, but it seems like the R line of droids does, which kinda of makes sense considering they’re built to operate on the outsides of ships. Though having sustained flight capabilities seems kind of weird. Same goes for the jetpacks being able to fly into low orbit. Yes you could…

I don’t want to tell you or your editor how to do your jobs, but I feel like a better and more accurate title would have been:

Well for starters this character is Thai not Swiss.

It’s a cool project but it’s hardly mind blowing since he’s really just building a new shell for the internals.

The fucking irony of commenting on mainstream publications reporting on a big cultural show on a website that’s run like 5 articles per episode, presumably to meet some corporate editorial demand.

Did this feel a bit rushed to anyone else? It felt like everything after the opening flashback went by super quick. I went and checked the runtime and this was also the shortest episode yet, and about 10 minutes of it was just credits and the Behind the Episode stuff.

I think the bigger deal in acquiring Take2 would be getting the rights to GTA. Though they’d probably keep in multiplatform due to the loss in sales.

The weird cyborg that attacked Mando really gave me Matrix vibes, with the whole insectoid machines and underground city aesthetics.

I’m of the opposite opinion where I feel like David as an antagonist feels out of place in the story because he is portrayed as cartoonishly evil especially in a relatively grounded story like TLOU.

The thing that really gets me about opposition to the Activision MS merger is that Playstation already gets a ton of defacto exclusivity on a lot of Japanese developed games.

I had to cheese it as well. There’s practically no delay between the drop warning indicator appearing and the pod actually landing, and it’s super easy to miss in the middle of a fight as well.

I will always maintain my tinfoil hat conspiracy theory that the plot of this game was massively revamped once Keanu Reeves signed on for this game. Sometimes you can feel the faint pulse of a different plot revolving around the corporations, instead of the very unsatisfying one we ended up getting with this edgelord…

I am absolutely convinced that the setting and Cloudstriders are recycled assets from a cancelled Bungie IP that never made it out of prototype. The aethestics of the Cloudstriders clashes so hard with everything else in the game, and this including all the weird holiday masks and weird cosmetics.

It’s got nothing to do with Unity and everything to do with Bandai Namco half assing yet another rerelease.

I remember when the game was first announced and they teased being able to drive the Batmobile and people were hyped.

I think there’s definitely something to be said about over saturation and burn out. Each new release feels less like a big event and more of a homework assignment you need to complete in order not to fall behind, especially now that the shows are becoming increasingly interconnected to the films.
