I love that someone just straight up admitted this was the Jesus challenge. Stand in one place with feet together and arms raised? NAILED IT!

Reed! Reed is a person with plans! Reed exists in corporeal, speaking form! I love him! . . . He's going to be voted out next week, isn't he?

I adore the Jeremy and Josh geek-out observation role. ADORE.

Right? The female protagonist of P3 was so delightful. Why must the Persona games continue to deny me the joy of a female protagonist after giving me a taste? It's like an opposite drug dealer!

Wait, tell me more. Is this like the Walking Dead and Wolf Among Us games, only with dinosaurs? Is it awesome?

Exactly. I don't think he's angry that she's with Raphael (well, not just that). Rather, he's angry because Raphael was clearly a factor in their break-up even though she swore he wasn't, making her a liar — the very thing she broke up with him for.

I feel bad for his partner. I wish that relationship were more developed so we'd have more context for this. Does she know what's been going on with Michael (and thus should know full well he's rebounding hard)? Are they close? Has she been into him for awhile, or is this just angry desk sex? Can their partnership

Wait, you know a lot of girls named Patrick?

Hell, I didn't even know "scan" existed until I accidentally depressed my left joystick and thought something was attacking me until I realized that golden circle was coming from me.

I'm playing on the PS3, and I find the teeth really distracting, but other than that it's been just fine for me.

The old couple is at the Bookstore in one of the shopping areas. They are adorable.

I read an article that suggested not getting bogged down in the Hinterlands. There are many other open areas to explore, and you can always go back to the Hinterlands to complete quests later. The game can feel stifling if you stay in the Hinterlands to try to complete every quest before moving on. From my experience

Huh. I'm a female elf, so everyone looks tall to me, but I swear Blackwall is human. I just recruited him, though, and haven't had him in the same party as Varric, so I'll have to double-check. Not that it matters. I actually hope Varric isn't the only dwarf party member as so often happens.

Me too! Wait, that Grey Warden guy is a dwarf?

Yeah, this article made me remember what I had long forgotten: my mom's deep, seething hatred for Hildi.

Did you by any chance play Assassin's Creed: Liberation on the Vita? Because I'm playing that right now, and I'm at the ball maze in the cave, and it's terrible. The mechanics make no sense (not in a "you have to be patient and figure it out" way, but in a "the tilting of the Vita and the tilting of the ball maze

I don't want anything played at my funeral that will ruin a good song for my mourners (well the ones who actually give a shit about me anyway). It's been 12 years since the funeral of a loved one, and I still can't handle "All Things Must Pass," "I'll Follow the Sun," "I'm Only Sleeping," or "Trenchtown Rock" (to be

The opera house bothered me the most, not because of mystical religion whatnot, but because it ended up not meaning anything. The recurring dream of running through the opera house just ended up foretelling running through some ship in the exact same way. It wasn't symbolic, it wasn't meaningful, it wasn't poignant,

I can't really explain it. All I can say is that on paper this show is nothing I would ever enjoy (and indeed I ignored it until the good reviews made me cue up the first three episodes one bored Sunday), but I really like it. It manages to hit all the absurd soap opera beats (in a very self-aware way) while also

I never noticed Richard Madden's eyes being that ridiculously blue on GoT. Are those his real eyes, or did they get Disnefied?
