Jesus Christ that interview. I realize I keep hitting the same drum on the marketing of this game, but I can’t fathom how it is so bad.

Eh, I think it is easy to forget now that KOTOR was actually ridiculously bugged when it first came out and there was content that you could easily miss out on the game because of those said bugs. In addition the final stretch of the game is... I would say odd, although there are some nice stuff there.

Somehow this feels like a fitting thing for a KOTOR II port. Like it is truly being faithful to the original here.

I’m going to disagree that there is nothing interesting happening in these charts as it is difficult to put into words how absurd the numbers for Top Gun Maverick are.

This was a genuinely delightful and fun read.

If I recall correctly, the reasoning for him leaving the show were a bit more complicated than that as it wasn’t that he thought people were laughing at him, but rather that he thought that in creating those sketches mocking racial stereotypes, what people were still laughing at were those actual stereotypes. So in a…

Continue loving this show, although I did groan a bit how hard they are leaning on the ‘In love with his best friend’ trope, but I guess some things can’t be avoided. Still a ton of fun and brightness, even the mother felt a lot more likable here instead of being a harsh stereotype.

I’m a bit more willing to give this a chance due to King not being the showrunner as I think that original show was a really intriguing example of how to fail at being that in a mystery. Like it was clear that her constant ambition was to beat the audience, even I think admitting that they changed logical solutions to…

By the way, I do genuinely adore how one of the running themes of this show is how ridiculously easy it is to escape the Empire.

Ok, now on third rewatch I saw it. I think it was so close to the wall that I was assuming it was a container or something.

Okay, there’s something I really need explained to me as I watched this particular scene, rewinded it and still could not make sense of it.

While I do fully condone calling out Boebert for being a hypocrite, but before this can really be taken seriously, the PAC in question should actually present some proof. At the moment it is fully leaning on just claiming that they are have seen the evidence, but it is questionable to publish such allegations without…

On that ME2 ammo question, while them bringing ammo was true, describing that way does again miss the reason for the change. The ME1 gear system was utterly and fundamentally broken. Yeah, it had a lot of weapons and armors, but they all felt similar and statswise there were the ones were clearly superior. So the only…

Yeah, and I do think there’s always been this weird retroactive glorification in the fanbase. After ME3, ME2 became just a masterpiece despite the fact that there have always been a lot of valid criticisms about how disjointed it is and how Shepard doesn’t really have a character there. After DA2, and partially ME3,…

Hell, not only didn’t majority of that 30+ hours in DAI nothing of extra value, because they designed the different regions with the idea that you could go there in any order, none of them could truly inform and support the central story. Hence you go around doing sidequests, but they are completely independent of the…

Without EA was a part of the reaction, but I don’t think it was the major thing at that point. Actually there’s been a lot of retroactive justification of what happened and it’s kind of funny as the glamorization of DAO was a weird part of it. Like people would contribute things being in DAO that made it great that…

It’s kind of funny as the more I look back on Dragon Age 2, the more I think its release and the aftermath that followed is one of the more critical points in cRPG history. Before going deeper, I want to be clear that I absolutely love that game, thought it was ahead of its time in so many ways and it warms my heart…

Funnily I was also thinking about Mass Effect Andromeda while watching that trailer. Although my thoughts on it a more complicated than the review and reflect I worry for this game. ME:A actually has a lot of really fun clever stuff, at least for me, and the companion/storyline quests are for the most part great.…

It absolutely is and that’s not a bad thing. Also to give Marshall credit, she had a big part in this modern revisiting of pop culture history moments with her original work on Tonya Harding. There is a massive value in challenging how we remember the past and I do think that there is a lot of positive things from the…

I was generally referring to the research done for Mike’s subjects compared to Sarah’s subjects, especially since I can’t recall them ever discussing their research as something done by other people for them. Also I’m glad that my comments raised such warm emotions in you.
