Oh thank god somebody said it.

They can’t. Their entire identity is being an exhaustive twat on the internet.

I picked up Arkham Knights on sale a month or so back. Spent about an hour with it before I tossed it aside in disgust. It’s so miserable, so unpleasant, so full of unremitting hatred of women, absolute contempt for anything other than brutal violence, such a reductive and boring view of Batman.

I did happen, and it was embarrassing to watch so many put so much faith in something that was always going to disappoint for so long.

As a good Patrick O’Brian fan I am an enthusiast of the under-rated xebec.

Murder all synthetic life in galaxy. Mind control all synthetic life in the galaxy. Or synthesis, wherein you... let me just check my notes here... violate the bodily autonomy of all sentient life in the galaxy, rewriting the DNA of every single solitary person based on a three minute conversation with a small ghostly…

The real bafflement is that it spends three games showing that you can find accord with artificial life and then lectures you in the show’s final minutes how it’s been proved by off-screen events millions of years ago that you cannot find accord with artificial life so obviously the only solution is to... periodically…

ME3 assumed you would care about Earth, and it is only one of many reason why it’s a disappointing game.

I’m a huge Liara fan but she doesn’t come into her own until ME2, specifically the Shadow broker DLC.

Of the 156 ships that have been offered in Star Citizen since development began, around 116 are now flyable, with three more coming in the next patch.

Are they fun to fly? From my experience, no. Is it a good game? Again, no. Was it a good investment? Fuck no. But they are, slowly, delivering on those hilariously expens…

I don’t own Star Citizen and never spent a cent on it, but I always like to point out that calling it a ‘scam’ is really disengenuous: they have produced a product. It exists! You can go in play it - in fact, I have!

Was it good?

No. Not even a little bit!

I mean that was 2019, maybe it became amazing (people say it has…

I realized after I posted this that it sounded like I was letting SC off the hook—Sim City is indeed the origin of this problem, I just think it is better at being a game than Cities Skylines.

Well now that I can understand. That’s principle.

Yeah, you probably aren’t a writer because Jesus Christ the amount of work you’ve just suggested games should pivot to is massive. That sounds like a recipe for a game to have five hundred small shit stories because they had to meet a numbers quota so that every single possible pairing combination has a ‘full plot’.

I like how this sits side-by-side with yet another article about what a shithole company Bethesda is to work for. Are we suppose to celebrate this or...?

It’s not just the advisers; Cities has a really toxic approach to civic planning that leaves me cold.

No, actually, I don’t think I should plow a multi-lane road through this quiet residential area to ‘improve traffic’, since widening roads does not ever led to actually improving traffic because that’s not how induced…

Why did I come to this party?

Which I’ve never understood because Cities: Skylines is a glorified traffic simulator and a profoundly shitty Sim City clone that nails nothing that made the best of that series good—which goes to show just how bad the Aways-Online Sim City was that Cities could take its place.

Why yes, we here at EA’s social media teams often play videos game. I myself play the FEETAFA spots game many times a day. I love the risk and reward of its funtainment gamblebox system, and I enjoy using the videoed game controller and online connectivity for lots of engagement.
