“(of course this isn’t me saying “they have to give in to every fan’s whim and make every character officially and canonically gay” or whatever so don’t start that)”

Sure, imagine all you want, that’s perfectly healthy.

Nope, not what I said. Queer kids are not creepy. Adults who impose their own wishes on someone else’s story are creepy, especially if the author of the story says, “hey, that’s not what I’m writing about” and the person leans on their own intepretation of “the subtext” to continue to hijack the story or the…

The overall style doesn’t feel unique to me. It reminds me of newspaper comic strips, but with more digital coloring.

For me the game feels entirely made for creators, and since I’m not particularly creative that turns me off a lot. It somehow feels like I’d be missing out by buying it to “only” play others’ creations. I suspect there’s a lot of people who feel this way even if it’s not really true at all.

I think the best way to strengthen Dreams as a platform is to make it as widespread and accessible as possible. If it wasn’t PS exclusive, I’d say it was the ideal Game Pass game, but maybe the closest possibility is that it should be added to the PS Plus Collection or preloaded onto PS5s like Astro’s Playroom. That…

I honestly dont get the hype around this game.  Sure it looks interesting but I see nothing about that makes me get hyped for it.

I’ve only recently played the original FF7 for the first time, but I thought it was laid out fairly clearly by the end - Sephiroth wants to cause a global cataclysm to force the world to channel an enormous amount of life energy into the wound to heal it, and by making sure he’s right there where and when all that…

I get the feeling we’re going to get a LOT of impressions like that in the near-future

Agreed. And they didn’t just feel cowardly but also lazy and attention-seeking - it’s like if GRRM put what he thought was crucial info in italics (it’s gonna be a red wedding, wink wink). If Cloud’s cold-blooded instincts are compelling him to kill Reno in order to minimize future threats, that’s a really interesting…

i just can’t see Zach being alive. I think it would change the story to much. Specially when cloud erased his memories and running around with Zach'a.

Exactly - Nomura falls into that same creative trap over and over, he can’t help but compromise the setting and tone to pursue some unnecessary flashy meta wankery. All of his projects for more than ten years now undermine themselves by losing sight of the main plot in favour of chasing some half-baked, ham-handed,…

it was such a whiplash going from a a rescue mission to suddenly fighting against the embodiment of fate to save the world. Maybe it’s just me, but it felt a little too soon for the stakes to be so high.

But the significance of Zack surviving in a new timeline isn’t something that’s going to hit dramatically at the end without prior knowledge.

I’d think better of Trump if he actually knew about Dr. Mario.

Now you don’t even sound fun.

Nemesis is just practicing social distancing guidelines in Corpse Run. He never actually had any intention of getting close to Jill.

Clueless Hero has been pretty good for the past 3 of 4 weeks. I don’t know if they have heard the criticism or not but I like what they’re doing... now. 

He ate Oreos for breakfast! This is basically a Garfield strip but with four times more dialog than necessary.

Did we play the same game? There aren't random battles in P3, your enemies are clearly marked on the minimap and game world...
