Not sure.

Yup, and I love it! I pre-ordered Total Warhammer 2 because I enjoyed the first one so much—GOTY 2016—and Norsca comes out right before my birthday. It's pretty sweet all around!

I got the impression that they thought that Zecht had been killed by Vayne. The guy who takes part in the shady secret test funded by the guy who assassinates people suddenly goes missing? That whole scene is the Emperor confirming that Vayne funds Draklor and they were involved in Nabudis. Without Zecht, "the truth…

Xenoblade is a shittier version of FFXII.

Wait until one nails you with Choco-Meteor. You'll change your tune then.

A heads up for everyone: PSN is having a pretty good flash sale right now. I picked up Return to Arkham for 15 bucks last night.

A) We don't know what Zecht looked like when he was a Judge, and there's seemingly no photographic technology in Ivalice. We don't know how such an investigation would be delegated.

Judge =/= Judge Magister

I'd be really surprised if it didn't come to PC in a year or so.

I'd say the card game version of Arkham Horror is better. Doesn't take goddamn hours to play, for one thing.

It's still grindy, but you can now set the game to up to 4X speed as you run around, which makes things so much more tolerable.

Your first companion should be available at the town with the rollercoaster, and you can pick up another one at the outpost near there, another in Novac, and a fourth on a rest stop on the main loop heading towards New Vegas.

Yeah, but even by Japanese standards it seems really homo-erotic and decidedly unusual for a mainstream AAA game.

I strongly suspect that one of their problems with Matsuno—the original director of XII as well as FF Tactics and Vagrant Story—is that he's much more interested in having mature (or at least not teenage) characters, with a different approach to storytelling to accompany that interest. He was always a bit of a square…

I'd be very surprised if it didn't wind up on Steam, but probably not for 9 months to a year.

Vaan's flirty pose on the equipment and status screen is gobsmacking. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, but he's literally taking his vest off and there's no other game I've ever encountered that so shamelessly flaunts a hot male body. Maybe DmC. I'd love to hear an explanation of why.

Yeah, the Necromancer seems really powerful. I'm more concerned with some skills being so good that they make others really unattractive, but that's an issue across the game.

I'm at a little over 30 hours and I'm at the back-end of the game (next stop: Giruvegan and the Occuria); the speed-up slashes the length of the game tremendously.

It is very John Williams-y. I swear the Tchita Highlands track pulls directly from Duel of the Fates.

Eh, it hasn't been bad. My boyfriend wound up with an injury from getting sucked into a vortex (long story) while I managed to win the scenario, but it doesn't feel like there's a ton of room for players to have widely divergent experiences unless you're playing with utter contempt for each other.
