Most would consider Egypt in the Middle East and Origins came out in 2017. Though I guess you could argue semantics about time periods. Like is Hellenistic Egypt considering Middle Eastern to people or is Middle Eastern a more modern and/or Arab concept?

Kiku was a revelation in this sense. not quite sure about Yamato, Oda has been a bit inconsistent with ‘em, but I love Yamato all the same. Yamato for Nakama! 

Cause I’m not referring to Haurchefant dying seven years ago, I’m talking about the raid bringing him back now. That's the part that was spoiled.

It’s literally just a limited, two-hour trial of a full game. Like, you download said game, start playing, and two hours later are cut off. If developers want to offer a more crafted demo, they’re apparently welcome to, but this feature is being implemented on a system level. Consequently, it doesn’t impact…

I’ve found the range to be quite good actually. It’s gotten me through plenty of boss fights.

Has it really only been 37 minutes since Elden Ring launched?

Sounds like you haven’t played it and have no idea what you’re talking about from a writing perspective. At all.

*spends 15 seconds navigating to Cyberpunk 2077 in my library and clicking an install button* 

One thing that has to be kept in mind regarding FFXIV is that it’s fairly easy and convenient to swap outfit appearances on your gear.

What is the general opinion of FFXIV clothes? It’s been a few years since I played it (always tempted to go back, considering the constant praise it gets) and I seem to recall thinking that there was a lot of stuff that looked like straight up fetish-wear, and generally the human-proportioned characters all has a bit…

I appreciate Kotaku’s reporting of the Activision-Blizzard fiasco, and the generally quality journalism that comes from the site. I hope that everyone on staff continues to deliver great content that keeps me coming back.

Don’t you mean “shocked yellow lightning mouse face”? You trying to get us all sued?

It’s not really region locking. All carts work on all consoles and all consoles can set up all online stores. It’s just that each store is locked to local payment services and currencies and also some publishers, mostly in Japan, don’t localize their games and don’t bother uploading them to the foreign storefronts for…

Sometimes it loads, albeit slowly

I recently started Kingmaker and I’m love/hating it. I really like all the ways it lets you tweak things, from all the difficulty options to the character creation. Really enjoying the story so far. But it makes me feel incredibly stupid. There are so many systems to understand. I never played Pathfinder pen & paper…

Remnant’s on the game pass....not the same thing as owning it, but not a bad runner up option.

I liked FFX-2 *runs away*

I mean I completely would expect something like this, but also this is so dumb. Not a show for kids that are too young to know what brothels are. This show has a lot of extreme violence and death children that are so young they can’t know what a brothel is should not be watching it anyway for that reason.
