Did I figure out how to use it? Not for several hours. And even now it’s so much faster and simpler just to toss new things on the existing pile.”

This is my current issue with Starfield. Everything works. But the interface is awful and it takes about 3x as many steps as you’d want to get there. Using the map to

That is not an acceptable answer. Stop giving bethesda a pass

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:

I love using and fine-tuning a lot of accessibility options. Even if I don’t need them, they still improve the experience as an aging player. The Last of Us 2 is like the high watermark with that, which all AAA studios should try to meet or exceed.

“Premium Edition” 5-day early head start, is tonight/tomorrow (depending on time zone).  Regular release date is the 6th.

That and being able to change the HUD color should be a default 

No no it’s definitely not AI, it’s totally normal for *checks image* trailers to be half embedded in the sidewalk. It also just kind of has that “looks fine in passing but when you focus on any detail it doesn’t look like anything” look that a lot of AI art has.

Their edits are very, very good. I’m fond of this one of Kermit in HL2:

It’s still one of the funniest sitcoms ever, but the show is very much a product of the Obama years. There’s a “yes we can” vibe to it that didn’t feel unusual back then but now feels...I don’t wanna say naive but...aspirational?

eli is a magician, and that is one of his best works of art

You know the old joke about anything is a sex toy if you’re brave enough. Maybe being a Jedi is like that: you just have to be brave enough.

now that’s an audacious claim  ahaha

This all boils down to an argument over the Old and New Testaments of Star Wars lore.

In the original trilogy, the message was clear - the Force flows through all things. Some people have a natural ability to tap into it, but anyone could learn to use the Force in some way, through training.

George Lucas had a massive

I guess it is like Olympic athletes. Sure anyone can be a runner, but not everyone will be Usain Bolt. Even with all the practice in the world.

So interestingly - what does this say about Donnie Yen’s character who was a monk warrior but not specifically shown to be force sensitive? Was he like Sabine with low force aptitude and just never got there or opted to not try altogether?

I’m glad we are getting more force attunement through training/experiences rather than through gifts. we saw it a bit in Rogue One but so far that’s really the only other time we’ve seen it aside from maybe broom boy.

There’s a subplot where Shadowheart experiences intense pain in her right hand. Are you sure that’s not connected?

This did not go unnoticed, it did not go unappreciated. Kudos to them for going the extra mile!

Hey now, Bethesda has surely advanced to, “mine X minerals, take pictures of Y Dinosaurs, and fly these people you don’t know (or care about,) to Z planet.”

BG3 sold multiple millions of copies over the last month. The vast majority of people who were going to buy it at full price on PC have already bought it at this point. Unseating the #1 on steam is not really a significant achievement for any game with a marketing budget, whatever game is actively the next big release
