I just noticed this too. I can’t put a finger on an immediately obvious nefarious purpose behind making it harder to search related stories, but.... let’s be real, it’s gotta be bad, right? 

You’ve played Destruction AllStars a thousand times. You’ve also never played something like Destruction AllStars.

...which probably gives you a pretty good indication of which console I own :)

Like the Witcher and DA series, the inability to play all the ME games on a single console really bites into my enthusiasm to do a fresh runthrough. Somehow this wasn’t on my radar at ALL, and is exactly what I’ve been pining for whenever I see an article on Mass Effect. Yasssss convenience! 

Yes, because the source material is gospel, and Jezebel authors aren’t permitted to offer their own analysis of Biden’s stated goal to reach compromise. SIGH.

Kind of. 

Joan.

I’m all for seeing a crass commercial justification to this, but as far as statements go, that’s a pretty tough one to disagree with. Modded content that puts real people’s likness into simulated sexual encounters they didn’t sign up for is different in kind than even modding that same likeness into the rest of the…

Not everyone needs to find everything to enjoy a playthrough, and the battle over every player having equal access to in-game items was over long ago. If folks are going to drop money on collectors editions, I’d rather that they find the keys to interesting puzzles hidden within than just get an extra digital bonus or…

I’m not complaining about getting such a critically-acclaimed game as Control with my PS+... but I really don’t understand the reasoning of what games get offered any more. Has there ever been an article getting down into the actual confirmed process or rational that Sony uses for this, or is it all just speculation? 

“Star Wars is a space cartoon for kids and is supposed to be shitty” is probably my least favorite approach some fans take to warding off criticism. Whether or not it was accurate portrayal of Lucas’ intent for the original record-setting blockbuster, it certainly is not how the IP has been viewed for the last 50…

Supposedly his 2019 accident left him.... more introspective? I dunno, his Jumanji costars sure seemed to think he grew up after it, maybe he’s ready to find some gravitas beneath all that slapstick nonsense.

If you’re working anywhere than at home, for any reason... you’re “frontline essential” in my book. The striating of teachers vs. nurses vs. reception staff, over/under 55, etc etc... it’s all ways to rationalize not having enough vaccine. The answer is getting more at any cost as soon as possible, not coming up with…

Memory-wiped Threepio was an exploitive abomination played for a laugh at his expense, rather than to create any drama or self reflection by his organic friends masters. Bad opinion is bad.

Grief is something that I have a really hard time navigating for my own friends and family, let alone for strangers (even notable strangers). This isn’t really a “who cares” comment, more of a... confession that I just really don’t understand the perspective of people that not only meaningfully mourn the passing of…

Setting an entire game in Rivain might require some degree of burning that peace and sanity down for the sake of the plot, that would be a shame. But having it feature more prominently in a narrative before or after the player has to make all sorts of terrible moral compromises for or against mages in Tevinter, in…

Nah.

Not all technology will have a positive net impact on society. Like wtf has bitcoin done other than make same pain in the ass kids rich, ruined the market on graphics cards, and driven up energy waste? Someone send a terminator back and shut that shit down before it starts, plz.

Expecting consent to be a result of saying the right things in the right order is a harmful lesson that a lot of games teach players, yeah I agree.

That kind of narrative RNG is exactly what I’ve been waiting for a game to do for several years now! Some randomizable flags for who is recruitable, romanceable, allied, etc.... I think it’s an award winning idea that I haven’t seen anyone tackle yet.
