FF13 was definitely the FF that goes all the way in with “Style over substance”. A golden turd describes it quite well.

No amount of graphical polishing will change the fact that the gameplay, the environmental design, the character development, and the narrative are all fundamentally flawed. You can’t polish a turd, and FFXIII is still a turd underneath all its superficial glamour. Even the soundtrack, one of the better elements of…

I hate the way Nintendo seem to be above criticism in this regard. Anytime comparisons are made to PC/PS/Xbox by a gaming journalist/media person, 95% of the time it’s quickly followed up by “Nintendo are off doing their own thing and therefore we shouldn’t hold them to the same standards”.

We live in a time where this game and Ratchet and Clank a Rift Apart both exist and the console that plays the later is only 100$ more. I’d love to see a Nintendo console with modern graphics sometime in my life.  

Forgetting the fact they are artificial life forms... Her sister Elphelt is white as a sheet. And all the Valentine’s were biological copies of Aria Hale, who is also white. But hey, whatever I guess.

I don’t listen to her bc every time I’ve heard one of her songs, she sounds like a 19 year old Lana del Rey, talking instead of singing. Nope. Nope. Nope.

This. Beard Ryu should honestly be default Ryu.

I dunno. He kinda looks like a Streets of Rage extra to me in that getup, and he’s not at cool as 2015's more rugged and unapologetically manly Ryu:

I think a deeper cut would’ve been Billy, Citan or Fei from Xenogears. Or even Kos-Mos from Xenosaga. But that’s just reaching too far back. But it’s cool. Just remake Xenogears for me and I’ll call it fair.

I agree, she should have 14 belts, a bag strapped to both her legs, green spiky hair and no personality.

It’s interesting! We know a ton of third-party games are coming to PS5—including some that are cross-gen and currently playable, like NBA 2K21—but many publishers still haven’t confirmed that day-one availability. I imagine this will clear up in the coming days and weeks.

I’d say the bigger sin was making Mulan a Jedi.

Same. I strongly suspect the amount of influence the CPC had on this films production and its stars openly anti-democratic views towards Hong Kong likely pushed Disney into punting this to streaming.

You couldn’t pay me to watch it.

How’s her belt stay on?

Nuggets of kosher salt? Kosher salt is flaked 

Shit, this really is the darkest timeline isn’t it? I supposed it’s entirely too much to ask that we, as the audience, actually get to think for even a brief moment that there is the slightest possibility that the main character could maybe actually get hurt? At no point did I ever feel that the main character was in…

I kind of like the idea that Jin is actually just bad at Haiku...
