I wouldn't call hand-keyed animation "old-fashioned", that sort of implies it's outdated. It's still the normal way to do animation for most things, mocap is only used in a small group of content production scenarios where realistic movement, instead of artistic, is needed; or where costs are trying to be cut.

Even if stuff was cut, I don't think they've done a good job creating a coherent or enjoyable story. If they added stuff in as expansions, what I've seen of the "story" just isn't good. It feels like all the people that made the Halo campaigns left the building a long time ago.

If only it wasn't for the fact that you have to pay more to get more of the story. If the game had a complete story at launch, I feel like this could be excusable, but right now, no matter what they say, it just feels like they finished the game and cut it up into parts to sell as DLC. I'm so torn on this because I…

There isn't much else to do in the game, everyone is trying to get their 60 bucks worth. I stood at this cave for 30 minutes and retired the game to my bookshelf of other AAA shit-bombs. Next...

Man, my taste in games is just too broad to ever spend this much time with one game...

I think they kinda blew it on the design here. The exterior of the handheld should have looked like the original console: grey bottom half, white upper half with the strip on the side. The interior meanwhile should have looked like the original game pad with red buttons, grey D-Pad, and the rest. Not sure what could…

The ghost of Banjo still haunts my 360 to this day...

Note they're not talking about everyone who plays games, or who self-identifies as a "gamer", as being the worst. It's being used in these cases as short-hand, a catch-all term for the type of reactionary holdouts that feel so threatened by gaming's widening horizons. If you call yourself a "gamer" and are a cool…

Calling the trolls harassing her "rational debate" is indeed insulting to rational debate. But the issue is that the attempts at rational debate also get labeled as harassment/misogyny/trolling by the SJW crowd who apparently can't fathom that anything Anita would say might be factually incorrect or even debatable.

I don't think you can discount the contribution bad writing has to this. A lot of stuff is just because game writers aren't paid as much, don't get as famous, and so, obviously, just aren't as good.

I know, it's terrible. They make great games and like... people ENJOY THEM. EW. What's wrong with them??

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the market that will bring about the demise of dedicated gaming handhelds.

LOL. Well damn looks like it's finally time to get around to playing season 2 Really excited for it,, but had been putting it off until the final episode was released :P

Because people think that everything needs to be tailored to them and make them feel special. Keza says she played every day for 8 years but always felt alienated. Well if she played every day for 8 years then it must not have bothered her cuz she kept playing. You don't do something that upsets you every day for 8…

I used to play them, but a yearly release is really draining on interest.
