I find it amusing how two “flavors of the week” that Kotoku and the rest of the industry were creaming their pants over (for clicks)—those being Palworld and GranBlue Fantasy Re-Link—aren’t even mentioned.

All I needed to read:

WB seems incompetent at everything they do. They are a media company apparently ran by people who apparently are at terrestrial odds with one another. Any reports over games or movies that I hear from this group are always a whirlwind of reactionary production changes (often post-production) to reshape some IP into…

It’s not just capitalism, it’s humanity. When have you ever seen those few at the top ever held accountable for remotely anything? Rarely. And in history, usually only during periods of great internal strife, such as a revolution.

Yeah, Asian gaming culture in general. And noticeably so w/ Korean MMORPGs. Lots of flash, and for them especially, often little substance.

Then go do it. And when you do it, make a game worth playing.

Articles and attention like this are the reason scams like this bring success to the scammers. Every person on Earth who has followed this game knew it was a disaster. Yet a few hours after release and Steam already has 4,000 verified purchases of folks who have taken the time to write a (negative) review.

Which game is this again?

They don’t remember, that’s the thing, because nobody at current Blizzard had anything to do with what went on 20+ years ago. They should wish they could, because it would help them design better games.

There’s also an uninstall button. And I used my run button to get there.

Trust me. Nobody fell in love with Lara Croft in the 90's because of her “cool” and “edgy” persona. Her physical attributes were the main attraction. And more than anything else, whether you like it or not, those same attributes are the predominant reason for her ultimate success, and the very same reasons that propell…

Not only, but the ship combat is bare bones basic, so that even makes them even more unworthy of your precious life time.

You can see how detrimental the cultural focus on “wealth” has become for the Western world. Anything to make a buck! To get rich! Which includes selling all of your IP and property to Chinese and Saudi Arabian establishments. Same reason US countries unnecessarily outsource engineering jobs to India: to save a few…

No. You don’t fly ships, not really. You fast travel (and I do mean fast travel) everywhere in this game. Here’s the cycle:

What this chart likely fails to take into consideration is multi-classing. Paladin is a popular choice for multi-classing because you only need a couple levels of it to milk its best abilities, which scale on character level (Divine Strike, Lay on Hands). I rolled a Pally as my first 2 levels, rest Sorcerer. By…

I imagine Cleric will be more played in people’s subsequent playthroughs for two lead reasons:

In terms of how they were written and fit into the Forgotten Realms lore?

Three bad Witcher games, three bad Witcher TV seasons.

I think she generally ranks higher because she came about during a time when a whole new era of video game players were entering the market for the first time, and she was their introduction into the world of Final Fantasy. And Square then milked FF13 for years with all the sub-titles.

The look at the article headline, ace:
