Terraria was amazing with vanity slots. Exactly how I think more games should support custom appearances. Granted, the entire UI/UX in Terraria was fantastic.

Exactly this. I was rocking the default leather jacket you get from Geralt for the LONGEST time, and then I started doing the School gear treasure quests and those look pretty dope.

That plot is incomprehensible, despite the storyline being because it was written by Final Fantasy VII and Kingdom Hearts writer Kazushige Nojima.

I thought the lack of VA actually helped. It made it funnier that all the characters were miming and communicating via gestures. VA would have made it seem like they were being serious, which they absolutely were not.

Seems like an awesome idea that’s going to be bludgeoned to death after five minutes of gameplay. I’m certainly intrigued by the idea of choosing how to approach situations that don’t just include “stab the thing with the pointy end—hell, that’s most of the appeal of D&D to me—but it seems gimmicky unless it has a lot…

Objection: you are wrong, meatbag.

Yup. I’ve recently devoured the first two books and am waiting for my summer job to kick back in so I can afford the rest of the series, heh. The short story collections are an excellent way to kick off the series and learn a lot about the backstory of the games.

My perception of the Witcher 3 has changed dramatically after reading the first two books. From the game alone, I’m a huge Triss fan and think Yen is a bitch. But after reading just the short stories (and I know the larger novels go MUCH more into the Yen/Geralt/Ciri dynamic), I feel like I made a wrong choice for…

Well this was actually Pathfinder that I was running, which is much heavier with rules. As a new DM, it was a bit too much and it did feel like excess. But the rules were implemented for a situation that I hadn’t thought of at the start, and thus my dilemma.

That is a good wisdom. Although it better applies to veteran DM’s and less to noobies. A few years ago I was just starting out and threw out a few rules that didn’t seem to make sense (I forget what they were, honestly.) A few months into the campaign, I discover there was a legitimately good reason to have that rule…

Huh? Originalism has been around for a while now and is a well respected method of interpreting the Constitution. Also, if can only cite Cosmo to refute several decades of well respected jurisprudence, I think you need a better source.

This makes me so happy for reasons that I absolutely cannot explain.

Yup. Usually more helpful when I’m going downhill, but it works on other roads too.

Is that actually a problem? CAN’T TELL IF YOU’RE JOKING OR SERIOUS BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE BOOBS

Comments like these are why I visit Jezebel. I love you folk.

Gorgeous work! I love the color palette on these maps.

Andromeda sounds like Dragon Age: Inquisition. A lot of shiny features that sound promising, but just don’t deliver. Mediocre writing, mediocre characters, consistent and playable gameplay that just isn’t super engaging... it certainly won’t be a failure from a financial standpoint, but it does make me sad that this…

Booo! X was my first into the series and to this day I think it’s the most consistently good entry in the series. Especially the music, which almost rivals VIII.

I understand. But when you’re talking about Final Fantasy soundtracks, VIII or X are easily more iconic/complex/evocative than VII. I’m not saying the music of VII was bad, but it doesn’t have the same “oomph” as many many other games in the series.

I mean, duh, but when you talk about the VII OST that’s the first (and probably only) song that people are going to talk about, 90% of the time. And my original comment came across more snobbish than I meant it, but VIII deserves much more recognition if we’re talking soundtracks. It has some of the best music in the…
