Idk if you can ungrey me or pull up my comments here - Adjra has deleted all of mine, having apparently decided that she alone possesses the moral authority to speak on the subject.

I do not want to sanitize the effect that the words of Totalbiscuit, the games critic, had on the internet. I do want to plea for empathy for John Bain, the man. John had strong beliefs about disclosure in the entertainment press formed by his years in law school. This was true long before 2014. He believed that the…

I have watched and listened to Totalbiscuit’s work for a lot of years. He could be brazen and loud, but underneath all of that was someone who believed that there was really something called Truth, which is not created, but uncovered and (mis)represented.

If you are going to read my comment please read to the end because I’m not going to sugar coat this. I hated Total Biscuit. I hated his guts. I hated his holier than thou attitude, his pretentious demeanor, his talking down to game developers, his dismissal of 30fps games as a whole, his shitty tweets and his voice…

can we just go ahead and flag JuniperandSage out of this thread?
thanks.

Agreed. Dwarves are clearly superior in all aspects.

This.

Basically, every ending is a variation of a “fuck you” ending. Don’t want to arrest the crazy cult leader with only a couple other people as back-up, in the middle of his church and surrounded by his cult? Fuck you, no game to play, roll credits.

I’d say if we’re going to keep the nuke ending you could go with a couple of branchs depending on the players choice.

Choice 1: Join Seed and believe. Clearly the dude was right and you’re fighting against the will of God but you’ve seen the light HALLELUJAH!

Choice 2: Join Seed but don’t believe. The dude got lucky,…

She’s a TERRIBLE artist. She should just be a full time activist instead, that’s clearly where her talent lies.

Wiseau serious?

Thank you for your excellent analysis and actual deference toward some the people who slogged to make this happen. THIS is what game journalism could/should be, not a laundry list of graphics/sound/gameplay, but a keen eye to observe even a bad game as an important cultural artifact.

I’m not a believer or the praying kind but God please keep your mouth shut around Oprah. Amen.

No one is truly rational. No one. Emotional arguments are fair when dealing with ongoing injustic or harm. The idea that a diplomatically done debate with rational points is the best way to confront issues of sexism, racism, etc., is a fine one for a debate club or the dorm room.

If this were anything but the Trump Administration, we’d all just say, “Good riddance to bad rubbish.” He’s a terrible Secretary of State.

Quite possibly it is a relieving chamber similar to the four granite chambers placed above the burial chamber and which were intended to reduce the pressure of the overlying masonry on the ceiling. The Grand Gallery is a huge open space that would also be vulnerable to collapse.

Only a fraction of the population voted in that referendum because the Spanish court system had ruled it illegal, and it was the courts that ordered police to stop it. Also, the Catalan police are under investigation for basically having allowed the process to get far enough to have ballot boxes. The independence…

Nope, not in the slightest. I think Trump and the Tea Party are the worst thing to happen to America since the Great Depression. I not only voted against him, I put in real work trying to stop him, both before and after the election.

“But it is transforming into an echo chamber of political correctness and homogenous thought, a shelter for fragile egos.”
