It was, sadly, pretty bad. To even compare it to Diablo is too much of a compliment. I went into it really wanting to like it, and to its credit it had some really cool on-brand ideas (like randomized spell selection based on a deck of cards you could customize), but the combat just fell really flat. The saddest part…

“Getting paid for a couple years straight” is a pretty good goal for a game programmer/designer/artist...

I think the reason people are supportive of GP, is that it’s the first initiative in gaming in a while (outside of the PC gaming space with things like Humble Bundle) that isn’t trying to fill it’s company’s pockets by screwing the consumer over. Lootboxes, onerous MTXs etc....

Yes this. This whole last generation since I left school (left school in 2013 just before the last gen consoles came out), it’s been a nightmare trying to find friends to play with outside of things like fortnite or Warzone. Until Gamepass came along, and now friends who in the past would have stuck with a small…

If the last 5 years have taught me anything, it’s that people will accept their preferred lie over the truth every single time. It’s easier than introspection.

Somebody owes me a check then because I’ve sold the service to friends for since it came out as one of the best deals in gaming*

*if you play a variety of games.  Shit as this point they’re covering a ton of bases

Honestly is still embarrassing to try and compare the two services, Game Pass is just head and shoulders above and beyond anything right now. 

I work in international logistics, mainly taking things from China to the US. Been doing that for about 4 years now, and this is truly something I’ve never seen before. Prices for sea shipping are about 6 times higher than what we had pre-COVID, and to make things worse, shipping companies know that space is difficult…

I’ve played a lot of board games online over the last year, but they don’t really compare to being able to actually get together and play games together. Plus, while most of the online services are decent, they’re still incredibly clunky compared to being able to actually move pieces around with your hands.

Great, a publisher with no scruples meets a movie with no story

I am excited to climb up towers except I’m blue this time

Yeah this is a joke

I agree. I got to the 2 episode though, really too slow paced. Like they were really stretching the material. Worse than Dragonball Z in my opinion.

If you hit up the Tales subreddit, Abyssal Chronicles fan site or some of the Discord channels, Graces is a favorite of many. I wouldn’t say a majority, but in polls it often gets 15-20% of votes for favorite. It’s usually considered the best of the Team Destiny games and the fans who love it tend to be pretty intense…

You always have to have your underdog who tries the hardest, your feral guy who yells all the time, and your pervy character who is lightly chastized for unacceptable behavior. Shonen is just shovelware at this point. I think the bar is so low now that people just consider these shows good if they don’t charge up an…

Same. I just want the news. I don’t want interviews, commentaries, celebrity cameos, etc. Just news about what new games or consoles are coming.

Tell me what games are being worked on, give me release dates, show me some trailers. I don’t give a shit what 7-8 people I don’t know think about any of it, so leave all that stuff out. I literally couldn’t care less what that one lady is “there for”.

The article tried as hard as it could to imply, allude and insinuate that the departure must be tied to a scandal. In my opinion.
