Completely agree, the amount of content and updates we’ve gotten from them has been worth the asking price by far. Plus, the levels are amazingly designed! It has been worth the wait letting the episodic nature of this game pan out. I think they may have finally surpassed Blood Money.

Yeah, I kind of agree there. There are many different types of fantasy settings, and the barbarian one is pretty much like that. The game really pulls from that setting and it’s artistic direction really channels it well. At a certain point, we are asking the creators to change what they enjoyed making, as well as…

100 levels for 100 loot boxes now costs 200k less, which equals 20 levels. The math evens out here.

could we please shut the fuck about this on a site about video games? like you said Kotaku is doing decent enough job at not bringing it up. keep it to the sites you mentioned, and actually send an e-mail, or a real action item, to the people that can make the changes you so desperately feel are needed. a comment…

I can’t believe their EA overlords are letting them imply such ridiculous notions.

Exactly! Mark Brown actually has a great Gamemaker’s Toolkit episode on this, which explains what an “immersive sim” is and how it works, and how it lets you define your own stories free from scripted tracks. Hitman does an excellent job of this and Deus Ex is also bringing that formula back. Here’s the episode, I…

I definitely agree there. The pink flowers petals and lighter design give off that vibe. Delphox had a seemingly feminine design too, but this is the first water starter with a less masculine design that I’ve seen.

Whoops, my bad haha. I always get Mudkips’s evolutions messed up in my head. Thanks!

Haters gonna hate. I’m loving the new starter designs, and I think it’s awesome that we’re finally getting a more “feminine” Pokemon starter design, since as a water starter they’ve always end up as burly masculine Pokemon.

There’s a lane outside of the bus for vehicles that exceed it’s height limit.

“Update 2/27/2016: Fallout 4 and Dying Light come off the list, while Dark Souls 3 and Rise of the Tomb Raider make it on.”

Skyrim has a lot of VR mods for that sort of thing at least with cosmetic stuff, and there’s 3rd party software for integrating the head motion and look around into games. It’s a brand new hardware launch, so you’ll probably have to wait for bigger budget titles to start coming out that also support those kinds of…

You have to supply one to get one...

It’s mostly in the details. Textures have been waaaay up’d compared to the GC/Wii version, and the amount of polygons is way up as well. The problem with this vs Wind Waker is the art style, as with the Wii U’s graphical abilities, it’s much easier for the stylized approach of Wind Waker to shine over the more…

It’s a card that puts the actual Golden Monkey card in your deck, which when played replaces all cards in your hand/deck with legendaries.

If you’re still in a scary atmosphere kind of mood, definitely play Alien: Isolation! That was my favorite game last year ^.^ Pretty terrifying, but ultimately satisfying.

I’ve only just started the campaign, but so far I’m loving it. It took a while to get over my old man fever of “Halo is different now!”, but the transition has been solid. Also, Warzone is the coolest “big” multiplayer FPS mode to come to console since Battlefield Bad Company brought huge battles to the 360.

As amazing as that sounds, they don’t :( As a drummer, I learned my first Dream Theater song through Rock Band, as that was the easiest way to slow down/follow along with the song before transitioning to the real set. I hope they add that one, although I’d pay for the entire Metropolis Pt 2 album to get added in there.

It’s on the Amazon pre-order I know for sure. The RB site mentions getting 30 songs for pre-ordering.

Pre-ordering ups the song count up to 84 songs, if that helps.
