The StarCraft UMS game “Phantom” was also like this, and was a video game rather than a board game. Everyone starts out building their own base, allied and sharing vision with everyone, one person is secretly the phantom, who has extra income and abilities and has to eliminate everyone else. You can make the decision…

How could they release with no voice acting? Surely they have at least stock voices, the characters were all in shows so they should have access to grunts and yells to choose from. It’s just bizarre to watch characters full of personality be mute.

It is clear that you are not familiar with the music in question, which is fine. The tracks he distributed are not new or synthesized recordings, but include the original orchestra, yes. But, much more obviously, the final track literally has Paul McCartney singing on it. O’Donnell very very very obviously did not…

My main fear here is that more and more ‘physical copies’ require you to download half the game or day 1 DLC to be functional, or you even get boxes that are just a download code. The worst of both worlds. :(

As a Nintendo fan I’m much more likely to try out a fan Metroid game than another random indie Metroidvania, unless maybe it has rave reviews. It sucks, but that brand association works on me.

No mention of Epistle 3? We know what the plot of episode 3 would have been because a writer leaked it after like 10 years or so.

Just a heads up, that is a statue of a Martian tripod, a vehicle, not a martian itself.

They literally are, they are asking why the funds were spent on green planters specifically instead of trying to attract businesses back to the town center.

To me this comparison looks worse. All that green bounce light makes his face and eyes look creepy. It is more physically realistic, but when the character has bright cartoon dot highlights textured onto his eyes, adjusting the realism of the lighting elsewhere doesn’t help.

Honestly, Mighty No 9's gameplay is what lost it, but also they could easily have replaced their explosion particle texture and added bloom to the explosions and addressed their biggest graphical criticism. It would have been fine if the gameplay had been as tight as some other indie retro-style platformer hits. At…

It can relate to Mighty No. 9 - it was also an EXTREMELY successful kickstarter campaign from an old veteran creator of a beloved franchise (both made millions more than their funding goals), only to have a disappointing release. Balan wasn’t crowdfunded as far as I know, but was also initially seen as a spiritual…

I went to their website to check; it’s supposed to be the guy from Shenmue.

“This is the future that liberals want!”

I prefer the ones where he is fasting for ramadan.

As a skinny dude who doesn’t really exercise but walks a lot to get around I feel like running 10km is way more attainable than doing 100 pushups.

Their explanation/caption:
“For those out of the loop, Diablo 2 remaster covered the Sorceress underboob and the Amazon butt in the remaster.

I believe Americans grow up with ketchups that have way more sugar in them, not sure if consumers would accept the difference!

It varies, but it is extremely common. I don’t do it any more, but I grew up that way. My rationale was that we also had a family dog who would go in and out all day, and it’s not like the dog was wiping her feet. So the floor wouldn’t necessarily be that much cleaner if I kept wearing my sandals on it. Of course we…

So DLSS is “Deep Learning Super Sampling,” aka upscaling. It’s awesome that machine learning fed on data sets of low res and higher res game footage has led to better and better upscaling techniques... but it isn’t surprising that people will get much better framerates when they aren’t rendering the game at the full…

I found both BotW and Odyssey odd as they could be ‘beaten’ very quickly, but had dozens more hours of content I never would have seen if I stopped playing when the credits rolled. I thought it was a weird choice, but maybe I am too oldschool for not expecting ‘endgame’ content, and figuring you stop playing at the…
