makes sense considering XVI mostly just pretended to be an RPG.

I mean Black Flag still should have been a new IP pirate game, and not an Assassin’s Creed game.

in fairness, the normal accessories are pretty unremarkable, lol.

I beat the game, but my wife who is occasionally in the room while I’m playing turned at one point and said “Is this game always so....?”
“Dour?” I finished.
“Yeah...”
“Sure seems that way.”

I want to be clear that I had fun, it’s a good game. But it’s not a rpg in any meaninful way, and worse, it borders on being rather…

Exactly. It’s not that it’s not turn-based, it’s that it’s not an RPG at all.

Had no idea this was a prequel, but I loved the demo

I mean you could say the same thing about rail, the point is that it reduces the points of focus to just power generation, rather than millions of smaller points. 

Yeah the need for a third row for less than 3 kids has puzzled me for years. 

I feel like all the electric options are too big, lol. I don’t think anything’s as small as the hatchback I have now. But I’m an American that lives in a city *scary hands*, so I know don’t matter to the industry.

The Bolt’s the closest I think, but even that’s nearly a foot longer. 

Boy if this doesn’t highlight exactly how much more interested I would be in a properly single-player focused Diablo...

There were proposals to build an arena for this in my city at one point XD

I was sure that the fight just before the “Do all the sidequests you want now because the next step is the point of no return” part would at least get rid of the Final Days sky spell so the end/postgame would have go back to pretty and more varied environments, but nope. They stay forever, and it sucks. I’m so sick of…

The Mach 5

And ActivisionBlizzard, while we’re at it. 

Vertical mergers are specifically the thing that drove the trustbusting of the early 1900s....

Who gives a shit how it’s selling (besides Square)? In what way does that have any impact on whether you like the game or don’t?
I guess if you feel really strongly about the game you might personally hope it sells better or worse for the purposes of influencing future games, but how does that enter into arguing with…

At minimum, it needs a PC port. 

Yeah I forgot you that you were forced to buy a copy of every movie you saw before streaming came along

It’s very entertaining to watch the industry that, with the convenience of streaming, effectively beat out piracy only to use that same technology to drive people back to piracy. XD
