Probably! The cost of internet access and cellular phone access in the US is absurd. I think both are cheaper in the UK. I think eventually both will be sort of community-run rather than by corporations, like say in 10-20 years...

Looks like Kentucky Route Zero.

Wait. So this is an RTS? Or it's just "like" an RTS because you harvest things?

Isn't that how they still write press releases in England? :P

What the heck is P.T.?

Hey, you've got like 8 years on me (or rather I do on you), so don't feel old!

Hehe... I think those ones are safe.

How sad! So Akroyd isn't even involved.

Best part about this story is the wit injected into it by the writer. LOL'd a few times.

ha. I especially loved the ending. Thanks for posting/translating!

Well how about a no TV day then instead of a no books day? The point was that they're singling out one form of escapism over all others.

How annoying. How about a no television day, or a no fictional books day, or a no computers day, or a no escapism of any sort day? Japan is a nation of escapism. The U.S. probably is, too. Video games are escapism. They're treating a symptom, not the problem, and they're also singling out one form of escapism…

How long ago was your teenagerhood? I know what you mean, though. I'm 33, so 20 or so years ago, I used to fiddle around in an old RPG sort of fake thing in Prodigy Chat (Prodigy was sort of like America On-Line, a thing you dialed into in order to access "the internet" (but mostly just their front end with chat…

How sad. Gaming journalism is practically dead. Other than Kotaku and a few others, I guess we will have to look between cracks in the internet to even find it.

Ha. This kind of made my night.

Winston is the only one in any kind of physical shape in my opinion.

Don't be mean. The best thing about this cast, besides the blond lady from SNL (who is great) is that they have a woman in it who is not stick thin. I was scared it was going to be a Charlie's Angels kind of thing. I'm sick of movies with beautiful people. None of the original Ghostbusters were good looking.

These are all great actresses, actually. I was all set to write some disparaging comment.

Yep! Yeah, Divinity: Original Sin is my favorite by far, with turn-based tactical combat. However, Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity are like really wordy, involved versions of Diablo without any random generators and good, funny writing. Not over the top like Bard's Tale '04 but still pretty good! Just reminded…

Thanks. Yeah, that sounds about right. I still think it sounds more like Dragon Quest than Final Fantasy VII, though!
