I’m still not 100% sold on Death Stranding and I’ll probably wait for a price drop or birthday to get it, but boy if this doesn’t make it feel more appealing. I used to live in the French Alps and it was really great being able to just take hikes out on the mountain trails or go climbing whenever I wanted. Now I live…

Unless you're a hardcore Pokemaniac, no, it's not worth buying both. Just get whatever version seems cooler. 

Are they? I didn’t see that when I read the article or the Blizzcon coverage. It seems to me you’re more upset that they don’t dislike the bad stuff *enough* while reporting on the stuff they did like, which is coincidentally a big part of the conflicting feelings the author has in the article.

You can like good things while also disliking bad things.

I picked #3, which led to the party realizing that the whole vision quest was built on cliches.

The best thing about Max was taking him and Felix “they make a fish out of saltuna???” Millstone on a drug-induced vision quest.

Its because of the “Omnidirectional” aiming controls. Hitting left turns you to Luigi’s left, so when he’s facing the camera he’s turning to your right. You can change the controls to “Horizontal” so that Luigi faces whatever direction you press on the control stick (like a traditional twin-stick shooter) but be…

Oh man. I loved me some bad-to-average licenced games from back in the day. If you’re looking for an OK retro licenced game for the Halloween season, pick up Disney’s The Haunted Mansion. I picked it up for $2 and it had a coupon for a free ticket to the Eddie Murphy movie (which the game doesn't follow AT ALL).

I thought the Vex’s whole thing was trying to rewrite themselves into all of space and time? Basically to force all of the universe to become themselves? I don’t really know how that works, but I’m pretty sure I read that from the wiki (because trying to gleam information from the actual games is too hard).

I wish I had half the confidence of Fallout 76, misplaced though it may be.

Now that it’s been a few days I’m seeing more escapes. Mostly by people who cheese (Pathfinder zipline hopping, Wattson turtle, etc) and people who cheat (play with a squad in a solo game). And now a lot of people quit when they become a shadow since there isn’t really any reason to play as a shadow once complete the…

This may or may not be be possible in your circumstances, but I’ve been getting into building my own shelves and desks out of pine and steel piping. It takes a little pre-planning and hardware, but you can make some pretty cheap but sturdy furniture out of pretty simple parts. Plus you can always disassemble, add on,…

Well, at least now their terrible and consistent.

It’s pretty fun, but it’s very much a Wraith, Pathfinder, Octane game. Mobility and escape options are more important than anything, at least once you make it to the top 10. But even then it’s REALLY hard to win as a Legend. I don’t really mind (it fits the whole horror aesthetic) but the one time I won it felt mostly…

I think she’s really useful! I’ve used her fences to keep people inside buildings or set massive traps at chokepoints. And her bubble is really great towards the end of the game (especially if you can pop Accelerant so you can move it soon after.) I don't know. She's a fun alternative to Caustic, who was my fave when…

Awesome. I recently got back into the game and one of my biggest problems is keeping all the parts and guns straight. In the heat of the moment I just kind of pick up everything and then get really confused when a gun has burst fire or a hookup I can’t use. It’ll be nice to have an area to reacquaint myself with…

But imagine being the person who doesn’t follow Fortnite news and logged in to play today.

“I want to be clear: our relationships in China had no influence on our decision.We have these rules to keep the focus on the game and on the tournament to the benefit of a global audience, and that was the only consideration in the actions we took. If this had been the opposing viewpoint delivered in the same…

I mean, you don’t HAVE TO play PvP. It’s the same way you don’t HAVE TO do dalies, weeklies, exotic quests, bounties, patrols, or anything else you don’t want to do. But that’s also going to hamstring your progression and/or completely lock you out of other rewards. The game still very much wants you to play PvP even…
