Remember folks, it's only a crime if you're poor.   Otherwise, this is just smart investment/Capitalism.  

I’m sorry, I know that most gaming outlets have entirely given themselves over to being the cheap marketing arms of the publishers, too terrified to give criticism or less than stellar reviews due to the ever present threat of gasp losing early review copy access, but do we really need to try and keep browbeating…

When it comes to gaming, many accessibility features are pretty low investment.

I played D4 when it released and had terrible issues with it crashing randomly for the first few weeks. Now that BG3 is out, who knows when I go back to D4, if ever. 

i am. up through 39 on the season rewards so i should be on pace to finish up the entire season. i only play an hour or so every other day.

to the far right? Yes to all of those.

I’m still playing most days.  I’ll be switching to Baldur’s Gate 3, and then come back to Diablo from time to time as there’s only so much turn based I can really get into at a time

It is more likely that the original recordings were just not usable for some technical reason or another.

It really isn’t that. No one who has purchased a game will lose access to it through account deletion. So the headline and opening premise is all quite misleading.

But between this hearing and the one in the EU, people are spending a lot of time and money debating whether or not it is a monopoly. And my hesitancy is that right now, Microsoft is really consumer-friendly. But down the…

Don’t worry, the author of this article will sing a different tune when:

I’d imagine the answer should have been obvious.

I miss having a party too. Even if I can’t tinker with their stats I’d at least like to look at the stats and equipment of the guest characters like you can with Torgal.

Sue me, I want at least one female playable party member- not some love interest destined to die, not a sick maiden, but a character that has battle and story functionality. FF is becoming this weird “angsty 19 year old boy hits things” franchise, and it’s upsetting to see other Japanese franchises like Persona, Fire…

One of the things that I’ve sometimes said makes Final Fantasy is The Art of War Quote “Victorious warriors win first and then go to war”: In other words, your party and equipment management must meaningfully change combat. The Job system turned classes into equipment, and I think that idea is something that Final…

I miss the math, I miss the stats and the fact that if I’m not strong enough, I can grind a bit to shift the numbers in my favor.
