The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind is a perfect example of what you describe as an ideal, and I’m inclined to agree as a result.

When it comes to the chore that The Witcher inevitably was (for me, anyways), do what I did:

-Watch cutscenes online, or read a synopsis if you can’t even stand that.

It’s horseshit like what you described that ultimately influenced my decision to invest money into a powerful PC that I can incrementally upgrade every so often as opposed to sticking with a console that becomes antiquated in three years. Consoles stopped being good when they started trying to encompass a bunch of…

In the words of Neil deGrasse Tyson’s wife:

“...I have noticed that so many people like him are all alone and unknown, yet when they spill a little blood, the whole world knows who they are...A man who was known by no one, is now known by everyone. His face splashed across every screen, his name across the lips of every person on the planet, all in the course…

I have “struggled” with this a lot in the wake of Steam library inflation and ever-grander games wrenching my attention away with force. There’s a lot of influence and motivation going in various directions for you to play various games. Whether it’s a friend of yours nagging you to play Smite with them, the upcoming,…

Oh thank goodness police departments nationwide are getting $80mil to do a fucking job they should have been doing anyways. I can’t wait for the $30mil police departments will receive for special “don’t shoot unarmed black people” training.

Played more of this than I feel comfortable accepting as a grown man with a full-time job and few hours of the evening to enjoy. For those with more steel to explore this completely, figure out what “wh1teglove” is a password to. It pops up on the TV during the roommate game.

Looking forward to the kind of dreams I’ll…

Oh man, what a cool guy. I don’t have the nerves for the FNAF series, but I respect the hell out of them for their aesthetic (I mean, they could pass as nightmarish easter eggs on a PC Gamer demo disc ca. 1990s) and streamlined gameplay mechanics. Most of all, now, I respect their creator, for being an average guy who…

I want to know who pioneered the now cookie cutter standard for forty-something white bald men who live in the South and like football. I live less than an hour from Atlanta, and I can’t tell you how many thumbs (Thank you, Drew, for what will be a commonly used slur in my home) occupy roles as high school…

Jim Cooke and Sam Woolley are to Gawker what Trent Reznor/Atticus Ross are to David Fincher.

I’m seeing a lot of self-righteousness centered around this topic as a whole, which against some points is rather undeserved. While a lot of the points made painted pirating video games out like it was medicine stolen for a dying mother (which is laughable), there were pretty salient points made in terms of try before…

For some reason, the font used for links in the Trending on Kinja section on each page has the letter “i” looking more like an “l” on my computer, and normally it sort of annoys me any time I notice, but since Bungie shows up as Bungle for me, I’ve grown to be fond of it.

There’s something about people finding a way to pay respect and tribute to someone within a realm that doesn’t explicitly offer a way to do so that hits me so hard. To see people inject the very human act of mourning into a game that has no place for it is just beautiful to me.

I can’t think of too many creative nightmares worse than this, but it sounds like all parties involved are really great people. I echo the sentiments of others in the comments when I say that I’ll be very interested in the development of both games. Zombie games were a niche genre at one time, now two games can have…

I had no idea about Konami shutting down Hudson, so that’s some closure on the weird feelings I’d get any time I’ve played Bomberman or Bloody Roar and wonder “Why haven’t I seen more of these games?” Konami, like a loved one fallen prey to zombification, is not who it used to be and I wish them a swift end.

Okay, I’m hoping someone can weigh in and give me some useful input on what I should do in regards to this game.

I got Wild Hunt for free with a graphics card that I bought, and I’m thrilled because, as most of my library was centered around games that would be playable on my six year old laptop, it’s the only…

I was expecting a sort of metagame that encouraged interacting with the world around you through competition and achievements, and was disappointed to find Instagram with stickers.

While I agree for the most part, the title of the article strikes me as hyperbolic. I would 100% agree that, in the cases of unwarranted violence towards a minority, the officers that perpetrated the act are producing terror as a byproduct when their "justification" is "He was black, so I felt threatened". Saying "The…
