“I want a Goomba the size of a cantaloupe”

Disclaimer: In a former life, I was BG3 lead writer Adam Smith’s boss. But he abandoned me to go work for Larian so I hate him.

I picked up DoS2 in the Steam sale to check it out and also to see if BG3 was going to interest me. I haven’t played this type of CRPG since Icewind Dale when it originally came out.
Now I am playing both at the same time, DoS single player, BG3 multiplayer. I am enjoying them but the controller difference for “end…

I am going through with bad choices and all. It’s great! I have a severed hand in my inventory now.

This looks really cool and will check it out, but now I feel a need for a Rock Opera RPG!

Cheers Luke, and good luck! I don’t know how long I have been here but it was definitely in my previous career which ended in 2010. I am amazed at how many other OG Kotaku’s I still follow at other outlets, here’s hoping it continues with you.

I’m actually kind of excited for this, haven’t played any type of these games since Icewind Dale was originally released. Completely ignored the early access as I have no interest in sinking that amount of time in a game. My sweet spot for games is under 15 hours. Started playing Original Sin 2 last week due to the…

The Hydration prime is actually pretty good, especially the ice pop one. I know this because my 13 y/o bugs me incessantly for it and you can buy it by the case at Costco. She is aware of the rules though, only gets to drink it during rugby practices or games. It’s only 5g of carbs so it’s pretty low on our drinks of…

I NEVER buy this shit. But in this case I made an exception. Tetris is my gaming love, right from the NES and Gameboy versions. Tetris Effect is one of the reasons we have an Oculus (SW Squadrons being the other) so of course I would need a Nuggie Tetris.

Fuck, so many, many, many hours of entertainment from the crew. Hoping they can throw a private pod together a la triple click.

It’s an investment of money for something that brings pleasure. No different than saying he invested in the new God of War. Value is subjective and doesn’t need to be monetary.

Canadian pricing. $819 plus taxes (which I gladly pay) baybeeeee!

I have a $900 Steamdeck that mainly plays a sub $10 game....this game is so perfect for it.

People aren’t thinking about it now, but there is an entire generation of kids growing up who are already used to having their music digital and streamed, their shows digital and streamed and now video games digital and streamed.

I am not in danger of commiting suicide. I have had colleagues and family kill themselves, I do not even remotely need to experience what they may have gone through. If you are able to develop a game of this complexity you can easily code in “The following scene has the depiction of player suicide, would you like to…

I totally agree on some of the prices being insane.

@Taku-Man, answering because they seems like genuine, reasonable questions.

Yup, I can fly the 3 vehicles I own. In fact that is the plan once I get home from work tonight. I can play a gameplay loop from start to end. Tonight. Not in another 5 years. Right now.

Nah, I can see and understand the early adopters frustrations, you have legit complaints! Absolutely feature creep has set in and made a mess of what you were promised. I am generally an optimist so I think many things will be in the game eventually, (except the 100 systems, not gonna happen) but yeah, early adopters…
