Look, in no way do I want to defend Disney, but you seem to have forgotten that the prequel movies exist, and they are far worse films than the sequels. You also seem to have forgotten Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Have you....read cyberpunk before? Are you not familiar with Snowcrash, one of the more famous ones, whose lead is Hiro Protagonist, a pizza delivery driver who calls himself “The Deliverator” and carries a katana? Who teams up with “Yours Truly” (Y.T.), a skateboard courier who refers to herself exclusively in the…

I mean, you can still hate the game but it is a furious, angst-ridden rejection of a corporate fascism that has taken over the world, from the perspective of a lowlife who is trying to improve their lot and reject that structure; which is very cyber-punk. It’s not bringing anything new to the table, but it’s very…

Agreed. I have no desire to defend Bioshock Infinite, as it was mediocre, but being high while you played it and not remembering things is...that’s not related to the game, it’s the drugs.

Yup, his tattoos ARE still pretty frikin’ rad. Imagine how much cooler it is for him, who chose them? Awesome. 

Not cutscenes, but “cinematic dialog,” which means, here, voiced dialog from NPCs in conversations. So you’ll be making text choices, and then the NPC will respond with a voiced, animated response (literally in every single voiced RPG). So between all possible responses, there are 174 hours of recorded audio in the…

What an absolutely stupid take.

First act is great—it’s been out on Early Access, and I actually love it, unlike D:OS2, which had a tedious as hell first act that I had difficulty getting past

Oh fuck off with your disingenuous nonsense. You’re treating what MS is saying as if you are their lawyer in a perjury trial, so if they didn’t literally say: “Please kill Mr. Starfield,” but instead said, “It would be unfortunate if our starry friend went for a little swim tonight,” then they can’t possibly have…

Hardware Unboxed did a comparison between DLSS and FSR showed that the differences between the two are relatively marginal and that while DLSS is slightly better than FSR, there’s several situations where FSR is better and that it’s hard to tell the difference between the two in motion.

It’s one of those weird things that was both. It was a game that was absolutely broken on last gen consoles, and “failed” to live up to the hype on PC, which had plenty of bugs, but it was also a pretty fun game that I enjoyed at launch. There were certainly some people just piling on with the hate (a game being less…

There is only the context of this whole thing. Perhaps you’ve forgotten, or just don’t pay attention to these things.

You’re so dedicated to your bootlicking that you cannot seem to notice that, as I have pointed out, these are two absolutely contradictory points. If it were a PS5 exclusive, it would only be coming out on one platform, meaning it would save time in that way—so MS has absolutely no claim to speeding up the…

Starfield wouldn’t have even come to Xbox if we didn’t buy Bethesda, MS says, and besides, it saved time in development because when it was going to be for PS and XB, that takes more time.

I imagine that Ms Marvel didn’t have great numbers, and so they’re (at best) waiting for the Marvels movie to do anything, while Loki and WandaVision did well—AND they both star incredible actors that have a solid draw in and of themselves.

Absolutely the truth. 

Let me be extra clear: I like the silly little goals as well as playing paper dolls. Most of the time I just play the game, and so sometimes it’s fun to play the game where I “have” to use X weapon, or do Y actions. I also buy things from time to time, but I definitely buy more battlepasses than I do individual items…

Generally you pay money when the limited time event is going on and that “allows” you to keep playing the game to unlock various “rewards” (skins, emotes, whatever). The result is that it’s cheaper than buying a handful of the cosmetics for the players, but requires them to devote a decent amount of time/effort in…

Or, and I know this is going to blow your mind: why not both? The games I keep playing have amazing mechanics, which is why I play them, but I also really enjoy getting new outfits for my characters and weapons. It’s silly stuff, but fun, and I enjoy it. I like having a “goal” to achieve, and while I would like the…

Ah, gotcha, I see your problem
