Not just is the enemy army just wiped out, and the guy who killed your father and Ana death heard over the radio, the game never even bothers to explain to you who these hordes are.

I mean, the first one is my second favorite, it’s just that the second one is so damn good. To me, the difficulty with Yamatai, and I actually this even more with the most recent playthrough, is that it does like a very intangible location. There are ruins, shantytowns and this falling down hillside buildings, but…

Dragon Age Origins still plays fine, but the mechanics are a bit clunky and now that those certain storyelements are more common, the story isn’t anything flashy. Still an enjoyable experience all-around, but not necessarily the same hype as it used to be.

As a sidenote, related to Tomb Raider there was a minor revelation this week that was really, really weird and just wanted to comment on it despite nobody being interested.

Finished Gear 5 which, while I overall liked the game, was such a bafflingly written game. It felt like it had three or four writers independently working on different sections and then just forced them together as none of the first three Acts felt like they fitted together. Still interested in Gears 6 and loved Kait…

The first Witcher is such an interesting phenomenon as I also tried to replay it a while back and just couldn’t get that far before deciding that it was somehow even worse than I remembered it being. Also it was clearly one of those games where it committed so hard to being grey that even when there were situations…

Even if the apology wasn’t already an apology word salad bingo, the fact that his initial reaction was to call the people making accusations as detractors and also talk about it was about how the strength of convictions was ambitious or something like that.

I don’t mean the next to come across being positive on the dictators Trump listed, horrific men one and all, but I just can’t imagine any one of them boasting this much about acing a baselevel cognitive test.

Young’s response to the article was legitimately one of the most bafflingly bad responses I’ve read, which is even more confusing as there is an existing basic outline for it. To those who did not read the NYT article, his response is below:

...What conspiracy theory? New York Times has apparently never published someone’s home address in the way Tucker Carlson is suggesting. Hence it is reasonable to question why Carlson would make such a claim about a threat here.

For some reason I’ve found thinking about Forcces of Nature several times over the past few months. Not because it is good, it really isn’t, but at the same time it managed to figure out an ending that was ahead of the curve by a couple of decades, which makes it so interesting.

Personally I’d swap Dark Knight and Batman Begins, and even perhaps putting Dark Knight as number one, but can’t really claim the logic for the order is faulty.

Yeah, but while that was a tricky situation, it was including the blogger real name in the post, not any street or personal information aside of that. So unless Tucker Carlson is not the dude’s real name, I don’t know what they would be doxxing about him?

I hadn’t even considered that, but it is absolutely true. Apparently the situation at the Southern border is so bad that they should put the military there, yet at the same time they can just shift hundreds of Border Guard people from there to protect statues in cities.

I was so confused by this as has the New York Times actually ever doxxed someone? I can’t think of a single story they’ve ran where they published a home address for the jollies, not least because they probably realize what a huge legal liability that would be for them.

Something that I continue to struggle with is that there is this part of the Republican base who are all about the Deep State conspiracy and how the individual freedoms need to be protected against these imagined jackboot government forces. Yet when the Border Patrol, seriously the fucking Border Patrol, starts going…

My own favorite part of the Wallace interview was when Wallace challenged Trump on how are schools teaching kids to hate America. Not only was Trump first not able to name any concrete examples, aside from stating that he reads and sees things, but then he pulled out the founding of America date which was genuinely…

I can’t even begin to imagine the grief those two are going through. The judge, knowing that it was because some random case from her past, and the husband who has to go through that he was there with his son and it was him who survived.

Something I really like in this show, and which helped this episode work as well than it did, that despite being beaten down and far from that youthful enthusiasm, there is something righteous in Perry, Della, probably soon to be poor Pete and Paul. That something in them that just can’t let that injustice happen as…

Perry’s visit to his own was so well done and managed to avoid all those general traps stories often fall there as his wife’s family actually seemed really nice and the former wasn’t horrible.
