All I needed to see to verify I’d actually purchase this game: 60 hours to beat.

Like I said from start, the sfx looks nice, it seems to be shaped for a western mainstream audience, but I’m not really seeing anything that made Ghost in the Shell a classic for me personally... more like just another character centric superhero movie. Like Hollywood is trapped on this style and can’t do anything…

I feel like part of FF7's charm was “bad” graphics and poor translation. By recreating it all super realistic HD it leaves less room for imagination. A lot of older games, I think, were helped by what the player “put into it”. Like Nintendo’s stance on never wanting to give Link a true voice for voice acting, that we…

I’m trying really hard not to get my hopes up for FFVII. It’s an all-time fave, but I feel like whatever magic it had will be diluted by this episodic thing they’re going to try with it.

Thanks for the advice. That was my fear. I heard it was 20 hours or so, on a good run ... so I haven’t picked it up yet. I was aiming to get it on sale in some future millennium.

Coming from an original Baldur’s Gate 1 & 2 player of the 90's, and who considers BG2 one of his favorite single-player games of all time, I thought Pillars of Eternity was extremely overrated. I found the world bland, the combat taxing, the game just overall unsatisfying. I didn’t even finish it.

IDK that title doesn’t seem quite click baity enough... for Kotaku

Haha, that’s friggin great! :D A simple fade-to-black isn’t dramatic enough though, the screen should shudder and scramble/corrupt and then *bloop* gone, like a combination of yanking the cartridge out of an old console, and unplugging a really old CRT. (The really really old ones that had enough juice behind them in…

15 seconds + 15 seconds + 15 seconds + 15 seconds = a lot of loading. You can’t get around the fact that this game requires loading at just about every turn. Even when you are on a map and recall to another spot on the same map, the game has to load. It’s not a good experience for an MMORPG (or any game, for that…

When you play SWTOR it feels so unbelievably old even though the games came out a year apart. When you come back to GW2 from another mmo it’s just like, wow, this is a modern mmo with a lot of the classic mmo problems put away. Also, SWTOR is a really ugly game.

I’d say SWTOR has some of the worst travel, not to mention most tedious map layouts in existence, especially in the early levels. The way they designed the game is that every class has their own room in each questing area, so it just makes for huge, bland, boring maps in which your character has to slowly circumvent.…

Going from Niers very responsive controls to this game forced me to put it down after 10 minutes. It feels so sluggish and unresponsive.

Alas, all good things come to an end. It’s amazing that Asheron’s Call has survived this long. It was always in the shadows of the two pillars: EQ and UO, though AC itself was a great game. I played it here and there during it’s prime, but I was more of a hardcore UO player from 97-2002, dabbling in EQ for fun with…

Just buy it! It’s worth the price of admission. I’m in the minority on this, but the last bit of the game’s story does not undo the fact that it has the best gameplay and missions of the entire Trilogy, with some of the best moments from the amazing cast.

Too bad it’ll still cost you like $200 of Bioware’s funny money for the DLC.

Suicide Squad is possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. Probably. I’m having a hard time thinking of another movie I saw that I disliked that much.

Am I the only one who has been disappointed by all the boss battles so far, in that I’ve done so damn many side quests by the time I got to Aranea, she was barely a challenge at all.

My theory was always that it is Setzer’s lady friend who flew the second airship in FFVI.

Are we still pretending that MOBAs are fun?

I can’t stand character achetypes like Prompto and Ignis. I would have preferred it just be Noctis and Galdio on the road. But maybe that would feel too intimate by some people.
