Yep, and it's lazy lines like this that turn people off modern feminism, it's fighting largely a good fight but a lot of its arguments are debatable, and a lot of that debate is not being allowed to happen

The trouble is, any fightback against being judged a mansplainer is further evidence of mansplanation

I'd recommend stopping preordering altogether dude, it's just rewarding unfinished/subpar games

Yeah, the first one was the only one I properly got into. The Mako sections needed lots of improvement but were pretty crucial to making the world feel expansive and real. ME2 was way more polished but it seemed like they sold out half of the concept - it was very evidently a high-budget game made in 2009. I could…

'sandbox adventure' makes them sound more compelling and open-ended than they usually are, though.

'I fucking hate the gaming community as a whole.'

Mass Effect was the best kind of schlock for me - like the original Star Wars, it took itself seriously but not too much so.

You big, stupid jellyfish.

Yep, it's such an interesting premise and an excuse to return to the mood of the first game, which I really loved - curious exploration, rather than space marine-ing your way across the galaxy. They just had to do something interesting! Where are the aliens made of liquid? That speak in colours? Super-intelligent…

Even Phantom Hourglass would be a solid 8/10 title absent of the Zelda IP. It just can't hope to match up with the best of the series, because its best is so very good.

The lead animator from Mass Effect 1 & 2 now works for Naughty Dog.

Yeah I actually really like the story concept. But this being a big EA-published title in 2017, it has to be a good-looking-but-soulless unfinished action game.

Yeah, for all its janky-ness I loved ME1, an atmospheric, story-led RPG with a good balance of cheesiness and sincerity. And Vangelis synths. ME2 was enjoyable and very well made but felt like almost a completely different genre to me, and I couldn't even get into ME3. It seems the series has entirely lost its…

The trouble is - 'Bioware' isn't Bioware. Most of the talent has left since Mass Effect 1, and besides ME:A was made by the B-team in Montreal.

In what sense?

I defo enjoyed BBT at one point. I was into 'Friends' in my early teens so mediocre sitcoms are sort of comfort food for me

I get that reaction when I try to tell people how good Abba is. They're pop geniuses!

'I quit breaking bad when Walt let that girl just die'

Plus the 'coming up!' sections where you see mangled or hyperbolically misleading clips of what's still to come.

Don't forget Momma Cherri from Brighton!
