Thing is, most of us who love Bethesda’s worlds are thrilled just get another world to play around in. All that other stuff is just more yummy icing. Few of us were saying, “this better be a way better than that POS Fallout 3”

I’m still playing the heck out of Skyrim, some 4-ass years later. Whatever their shortcomings in story/depth/graphics, the games offer up an endless buffet that is immensely and endlessly satisfying to certain palates.

Right - now would be a perfect time to test the hypothesis that porn leads to assault, because porn consumption by men has been spiking over the last 10 years. If there were even a minor uptick in the incidence of assault, it would be worth further study. But there has been no uptick, in fact, more of a minor decline,…

exactly. Though I equate it more to musical tastes. You know what you like, and don’t, when you hear it, but outside influences and exposures help you define it.

I’m not generally attracted to fair-skinned blondes, or east asians (I’m a dark-haired, fair-skinned white guy). It’s just whatever, what I’ve landed on. I don’t read much into it beyond personal preference, kind of like music. Nothing racist about it.

Yes, she also helped orchestrate the robbery, and the perjury was part of it. Pretty serious. She’ll do time.

Perhaps you should as Mr White Folks what he thinks

Yeah, but maybe it was less your uncanny sixth sense, and more the orange fake tan.

Also, there is huge diversity in shape, character, and position of women’s genitals. I actually enjoy doing it, and really want it to be enjoyable for the other. It helps so much much when they are crystal clear in what works and doesn’t. When you have to go on “reaction” alone, it’s tricky. I’ll be like “ooh she…

Not to say I’m dubious, just confused. The console itself was “jailbroken” by software alone, if I’m not mistaken. And cracked OG xboxes were so ubiquitous as to give rise to the whole XBMC phenomenon. And it was essentially a vintage PC. Now I just want to waste my morning searching for “why”. :)

I agree with every word of that. But man, the scrolling levels, yipes.

Oh boy, you are a generous reviewer. I’ll admit that my roommate and I played the heck out of it in college, but what choice did we have? You could only play so much tecmo and mega man.

Just to provide balance... I just read it (thanks Kotaku, I was looking to kill 90 minutes), and I genuinely liked the ending. Made it personal and not just some “unlucky guy stumbles upon an evil thingy” story. YMMV

I feel the “bugginesss”is overstated. Outside of PS4 - which I can imagine was a huge PITA for them to get working properly. I have played the heck out of every Bethesda game since Dagger and includiing Daggerfall and have experienced no crazy bugs (some bugs /glitches, but nothing getting remotely in the way of my…

I might not use quite as strong wording, but I agree. I can fully confirm that a PS4 can be easily matched-if-not-bested by a mid-range sub-$600 PC from 2013 (And $200 of that went to 5TB of storage). Of course my old boat anchor has 100% backwards compatibility with, erm, pretty much every PC game ever, and nearly…

I have some advice for these activists - pick up some cheap twin air mattresses, don’t inflate them, and carry them around in a pouch. Far more practical.

Several years ago, I stayed in the Fudan area of Shanghai. The main thing I remember is the stalls with books with the answers to the LSATs, GMATs, GREs, openly plying their wares on one of the main streets.

A Pac Man RPG where you role-play as one of the dots.

I’m assuming LunSei meant spacey / lasery / aliens scifi (Mass effect / Halo) versus gritty low-tech scifi.

Nah - sales of Skyrim and F/O were off the charts - no need to gauge anything. They know they’ll do well, unless they really botch it.
