So basically no reason to play Destiny until Destiny 2 comes out? I mean, this isn’t terrible news but . . . it’s still unsatisfying.

It definitely does look like something out of one of the older Japanese paintings. I know there’s a more technical term for the style that’s eluding me. It is very interesting but it wouldn’t translate into a 3D model well at all and even on paper I have a hard time believing people could honestly call that the “best”…

Yeah . . . I don’t know about that. Witcher 3 is an absolutely massive game but it’s all one game. I’ll wait to get more information but this is not an encouraging sign.

Personally I think that artwork is pretty ugly, but I guess I’m in a minority there?

I’m not Japanese and that first face is ugly, at least, in that screenshot it is, maybe in another shot it wouldn’t be so bad. Something about the eyes is off.

Advent Children is most definitely my favorite. Not just the face but the outfit is better and the sword (OMG, the sword!) is far superior.

I’d include the motorcycle but that’s unfair as not every iteration of Cloud has a physics-ignoring motorcycle (but every iteration needs one!).

Very much a #firstworldproblem, but I totally relate. There are too many video games out there to play.

It’s my understanding that one could easily import the game and be fine. So maybe the game will get a boost in import sales due to this kerfuffle. But your examples demonstrate exactly why a company may decide it’s just not worth the hassle to release a game they know is going to start up the Internet’s Two Minutes…

Because SJWs blow everything completely out of proportion. The world isn’t a perfect place and sometimes people mistreat others and mistreat women specifically. I’m not in support of that and any decent person agrees. The problem is that to hear some people speak, you’d think we still live in the dark ages. Rather…

Talking about hilarious logic, are you telling me there would have been zero feminist outrage if DOAX3 had released in the west? Puh-leez.

I’ll grant you don’t have to be a feminist to participate in outrage culture. Sadly it has become an “everyone is doing it” kind of thing.

They are the ones who started it though and it remains one of their primary tools.

“despite there being no evidence of a deliberate campaign debating the game’s content.”

This is not really relevant. Now, disclaimer, I don’t identify as a “gamergater” but I’m sympathetic to them. Obviously there was no deliberate campaign to keep this game from coming west but the argument is that the SJWs have…

A lot of shows and such have been harping on this whole “heroes cause destruction” thing and I am just having trouble getting on board. Like with people criticizing Man of Steel for the NYC battle against Zod. I mean, there are two alternatives here. One, you can sit around and let the bad guy(s) have his(their) way…

Yeah, let’s not get too into the weeds of philosophy. I will just say that the argument is that atheists don’t act moral because of their beliefs but in spite of them. There’s just no grounds for objective morality under atheism and without objective morality, there’s just no good grounds for morality period. Granted,…

I understand what you’re saying. Again, I’m personally pro-modesty but I’m glad we live in a free country where people can choose to dress modestly or immodestly. My only point is that feminists can’t be “pro-immodesty” (slut walks, etc) and then throw a fit over immodest video game characters, it just doesn’t make…

I was saying that Titanfall and Evolve both underperformed (from the companies’ point of view). Personally, I have to wonder if the lack of single-player had a part in that?

In my own experience, I did not buy Titanfall at first because it lacked single-player. Eventually I got it on sale and I agree with you, it is a…

Now I’m curious to check this game out, if only my PC were up to snuff. I hear it is eventually going to release to console though.

I’m like you though Luke, I play to relax so competitive multiplayer tends to cut against that. Which is why it bugs me that so many shooters are ditching single-player and focusing only…

Titanfall and Evolve don’t seem to agree with you on that. Neither title really had the splash the companies were looking for. They did good, but not great.

We will see, no sales numbers have been released so far as I know and the critical reception has “Good, but not great”. This article is mostly about another topic but the author does question whether or not it’s selling as much as EA wants given the play numbers, time will tell. I hate to say it but I hope it doesn’t…

This, I would already own it if it had a single-player campaign. I really hope people stop cutting those out of games, you’re not helping anything by doing so.
