Johnny Bravo is no twunk. He’s a himbo. Show some respect. 

“ I find it philosophically detestable in its rigid view of its world and unwillingness to interrogate the oppressive systems it has in place for longer than one movie.”

Super enjoying this so far (and for the record, playing on a PC and have had none of the major issues that seem to be afflicting other folks! Even with ray tracing on!)

Before I can muster any strong opinion here, I need some information that is neither in this article or the article it cites as a source.

I think what sets Fallen Order and Survivor apart and makes them more than the sum of their parts is that the games are filled with a lot of character and lived-in details. The Mantis is only just one major example. The Force echoes you encounter flesh out the world. Survivor doubles down and gives you a slew of alien…

Meanwhile, I’ve put in well over 100 hours into a game like Hades and haven’t regretted a single second because it’s an extremely tight, well-crafted game that’s so easy to play for 20-30 mins in a sitting, drop, and then come back to.

I don’t mind Principal and the Pauper either- there are a lot of very solid jokes and at that point Skinner had gone through a more major characterization shift than most of the ensemble (starting out as a stern authority figure whose past in Vietnam weighed heavily and then gradually shifted to a less competent,…

I don’t understand how poor PC ports not only continue to be a thing, but seem to be becoming more regular. What other industry can get away with releasing products in such a state, over and over, with no consequence?

He had hired goons show up at his doorstep for the unforgivable offense of… coming into possession of trading cards a few weeks before their street date. That’s objectively ludicrous. 

It’s cool they did the practical effects, but then they did such heavy-handed post-production editing that it all ended up looking highly Photoshopped anyway. Just add the car in digitally at that point. 

The thing is, this idiot already made his alleged victory over Disney a major part of his pre-campaign book. He’s been triumphantly touting it on his totally-not-a-campaign book tour nationwide. He boxed himself in with this asinine, pointless fight. 

I agree. Though, I wish the game had encouraged more of this strategic battling early on, because such aggressive implementation of it at that point of the game is too much too late. 

The original comic that this is riffing on WAS really dark! Pokémon were depicted being violently killed in battle. 

It is wild that Mistress is only 24. Hopefully her mean streak mellows with age- it really put me off her this season.

I cannot get over the fact that Paz Vizsla shares his name with a breed of dog.

DA2 was my favorite when I played through the series a couple years ago, as well. Yes, it’s clearly a rush job with a lot of cut corners, but I thought the decision to contain the story to one central location and instead track the passage of time there ended up being a stroke of genius. It made for a much more…

It’s especially weird for a season in which the queens have been constantly fighting over who’s been second place in challenges, a largely immaterial distinction.

I would much rather some signposting so I know where to go and what I can interact with than repetitive vocal lines from either NPCs or even the player character telling me “we have to go here! We need to do this! A puzzle- hm why don’t I try this?” every minute when I dare to dawdle a bit. 

I know it’s very popular to ship Akechi and Joker, but… what the fuck. I’m super gay and love reading queer themes into things- and Persona gives me the opportunity in spades- but I absolutely do not see it with Akechi. All I see is a sociopath. His obsession with Joker has no romantic connotations- he’s mentally ill…

While I think Loosey has just been fine (other than her excellent Snatch Game) and a little intense, her treatment at the hands of Mistress and Luxx is getting increasingly uncomfortable to watch. I wish she’d stop engaging, but they are relentless and then attempt to claim it’s all in good fun. It’s plainly not and…
