This was exactly the issue I had. If there was ever a game that could have benefited from a toggle HUD button…

One of the best decisions I made with The Witcher III was to turn off the HUD. It made me appreciate both the craft and scale of the world more and feel like I wasn't just doing chores of ticking everything off a box.

This is great reporting and all, but what we really want to know is how can it serve as a metaphor for the Trump administration?

I believe its a type of artisanal sea salt.

What can I say, I'm woke as hell.

Honestly, everything I hear about this game sounds so generic, aside from its "wokeness" and cool setting. Setting wise, different window dressing is still just different window dressing. Even the cathartic release of seeing a strong female lead/cast doesn't appear to be part of a more substantial narrative.

I don't think it means that, and the reviewer even calls it "ham-fisted riot grrrl". It does mean though that a game that portrays "almost" all men in the first act as being insecure/weak/etc is cathartic within the context of how most AAA games categorize its male/female npcs. Basically, the game takes into account…

There aren't enough games based on situational set-ups, particularly where you're someone who is unequipped for the situation they are in. Even games where you start out as an average Joe trying to survive invariably end with weapons and skill trees. Indie games have brought the idea of more focused locales and plots,…

I hate this idea that being a dismissive asshole should be graded on a sliding scale of how successful that person is, or that it is a rite of passage for certain industries.

I hope they find a Safe Space from the tyranny of Netflix's voluntary, on-demand options.

I would actually argue the media does have a "liberal bias". Besides Fox, who can you really point to with a heavy conservative bias in the TV news arena? Internet-wise, who can you really point to beyond Breitbart, rando right-wing blogs, and again, Fox News?

So as someone who works in a City Manager's Office, I beg anyone listening not subscribe to the running joke of local government being just silly, goofy decisions. It really isn't like Parks and Recreation.

"We've decided we needed to meet white people who have yet to realize their privilege where they are, where they truly live…and it turns out where they are is on-demand streaming services and hip internet publications like the AV Club!"

Surely, this will be what finally reaches White America.

The flash-bulb memory moment of him standing there so happy and proud with his police man lunchbox…that got to me even worse once the narrator said that Jane would play that memory over and over until it became a memory…

I literally had someone on Facebook delete my comment because I expressed disagreement with an opinion piece calling La La Land's success "troubling" and "….tantamount to stating that people of color are too loud, demanding, complicated”. That's the point we've gotten to.

EDIT: (Woops, I see someone down-thread pointed this out. I'll leave this here for the links if anyone's interested)

The larger scale of 4 is what attracted me to it more than the others, but its sounding like 0 might be better for my time limit anyway and I could always delve deeper with 4 later.

So as someone new to the series I happen to have Yakuza 4, Yakuza 5, and Yakuza 0 in my possession. However, I work long hours and my videogame time is limited.
