Oh damn, I love this and hadn’t considered it yet

I’ve tried to start people off on War in the Pocket because it’s my favorite and I’m not so sure it’s a good representative of the series. I honestly think it’s the only work in the entire franchise that’s consistently cogent and actually at least addresses Gundam’s elephant in the room: war sure is bad, here are a…

IMO, the coolest thing about 0080 is how it calls out the Gundam franchise for decrying war while still enrapturing kids with violence and explosions to sell toys.

When I saw 08th being touted as one of the best, I was already gearing up for a “And also there’s 0080.”

So to not see it...I’m gonna ask that you let me join you in that “What the Hell?”

Fun fact: the “goth chick from NCIS” is 50 years old. Also, if you type into Google it goes directly to the actress’ wikipedia page.

“I have reservations about the swag-quotient on display by Mr. Sulu!”

Yes absolutely...its just a different kind of level up...

You very rarely have to kill all the enemies when you down maybe one or two enemies. Theres always ashortcut or yu can run past them. All of the soulsboune games work that way.

God damn I love that skill. It made the game so much less grindy. The Rally mechanic is just fantastic and I wish it was just the default. 

...whisper sweet nothings to me about this health-regen skill you speak off.

I just started playing yesterday and while I wasn't doing horribly, I was definitely chewing through my health items a lot quicker than I would in Souls /Bloodborne, so when I saw that skill unveiled down the tree, there was a huge sense of relief.

/Slightly lowers the frames of my google glasses and peers over 

The best feature is all the free personal data collection Google obtains!  All the chat over mics, every game session,  think of how fantastic this will be for Google’s business model of selling our personal data to Russian troll farms and adversaries of democracy!

Or, they’ll introduce a new, different gaming service next year. And then another one a couple of years after that. As is also the Google way.

I just don’t think we’re ready for streaming yet. The home networks aren’t there. The controller looks like it was never prototyped or actually put into a player’s hands. Players *like* the consistency of a home console.

This, along with the absolute shitshow that is trying to stream any game that requires more better reflexes than a drunken slug. I sincerely doubt Google has suddenly solved latency, so the actual number of playable games is going to be a vast disappointment.

Yup, this is Google wave over again

You earned my star, but it was at 69 (nice) so I didn’t want to spoil it.

People are pessimistic for good reason and Google’s history gives them all the reasons to be, to say nothing of the large list of other issues that also are worth keeping in mind.

I give it two years of being basically underused and forgotten before they shut it down unceremoniously, as is the Google way.
