Honestly, every time I thought of grabbing this game the ever present warchest options poisoned the thought before it got off the ground. I know it could be ignored but every time the difficulty ramped up the nagging thought of whether it was designed to get one to reach for a warchest would be there. Now, I likely…

As you’ve implied with your comment, the overwhelming majority of sales for a game happen at or around launch. The sales curve spikes and then falls pretty dramatically until plateauing with some spikes due to sales.

In this case, I have a feeling a game of the year announcement is around the corner. They are getting…

Well the number is now at least one. I wasn’t going to buy it and I loved the original because I hated how they undermind the system with microtransactions (both stated in many editorials as well as their own PR statement here).

So its removal will finally get me to buy the game I was otherwise giving a hard pass on…

Damn, he finally did it?

I graduated HS in 2006; everyone had a cell phone, but they were all pretty much garbage bricks and almost no one had internet. It actually kinda blows my mind to think about how rapidly cell phone tech has advanced in the last decade.

I have enough trouble as an adult segmenting out my video game time. If I had this as a kid, I would have flunked out, no question

Many parents are idiots. You can’t fix stupid but you can ban students from being able to have cell phones during school.

On the one hand, part of me resents the fact that I grew up in a period before tech like this was available. Adult-me knows just how much kid-me would have taken advantage of this.

“Phones are enough of a neccesity”

that was a funny shot.... :)

I’m not angry, just disappointed. The Force Awakens was disappointing, and The Last Jedi just continued the trend to the point where I’m completely indifferent to the last film. Really don’t care what happens next.

The fact that The Force Awakens seemed to suggest her parents would be someone important and was then teased multiple times in The Last Jedi before the reveal of “Ah fuck it, she’s a nobody” was piss poor misdirection and a missed opportunity to create a memorable moment in cinema history. Instead Johnson’s daring…

i tend to do better than literally like 85% of people in any given match, so i guess most of everyone must suck even worse

Yeah, same here. It’s like a mental block, I can’t make myself figure out building while I’m focused on shooting and trying not to get shot. I watch skilled players get into battles where sprawling structures just unfold around them and I’m mystified. That said, I think it’s pretty easy to rank fairly highly,…

It’s ten points per goal. And as far as magical sporting events goes, I’d argue the Triwizard Tournament makes less sense than Quidditch. At least in Quidditch the spectators can actually see what’s going on.

I’m sorry but I still hate Quidditch to this day. It is the most poorly written sport in fiction IMO. And for me it’s painfully obvious because Rowling’s world building and attention to detail are incredible in all other aspects of the books.

Except quidditch because the rules make no sense. Largley my complaint…

Isn’t Bully set in New England?

I would add that, sure, the writers have explored how the ZA would affect each character but it seems to have affected each character in the same way. Rick, Korl, Jesus, Carol, and Morgan have all gone in cycles between killer and pacifist. We’ve seen time and again the same moral conundrum, “is killing justified or…

I think it’s a bit reductive to say that looking for the “point” of ambiguities / ideological contrasts etc within the show means you don’t understand the show. These things don’t happen in a vacuum, writers aren’t sitting helplessly by while the material writes itself, there are things they’re communicating through…

The new reviewer better not be some sort of fanboy that tries to tell us that there is absolutely nothing wrong with this show and everything is great and makes sense and is totally moving at a reasonable pace.
