Yeah, I wish it were included as part of XBox Live Gold or at least offered at a large discount with Gold ($30/yr like EA Access is what I’m willing to spend). $10/mo would only make sense to me if I weren’t also paying for Gold.

You can already play old XBox 360 games on XBox One. With this you’re paying $10 extra for access to a back catalog of games from XBox One and XBox 360.

No, Games With Gold gets you 4 game per month that you only get if you claim them during the period they are offered. This gives you access to a back catalog of games regardless of when you start paying for access.

The fact that it’s part of GWG means that it is being made backwards-compatible. That is one of the perks of the GWG program, that all “free” titles are playable on XBox One.

Just kill him ahead of time so he won’t need to deal with prison life.

I don’t know why you think that, but using magic in Dark Souls is generally considered to be Easy Mode.

I use the browser on my XBO to watch Giant Bomb’s Unprofessional Fridays videos since they don’t go up on YouTube.

I have definitely not noticed this.

Yeah, what the hell? When did this start?

In regards to the general state of things: Whyyyyyyyyyyyy?

Is this not normal? I got a PS4 Pro in December and it’s always behaved like this. I’ve just assumed everyone who says the PS4 UI is fast and awesome just didn’t know what the hell they were talking about.

Wow, I can’t believe their policies have gotten worse.

It’s a learning experience. If you die, you awaken in the Hunter’s Dream next to an NPC, some tutorial text, and some weapons. If you run away, you encounter the lantern and end up in Hunter’s Dream without needing to die.

You don’t have to die. You can run past the wolf and find the first lantern which will lead you to finding your starting gear. I believe that encounter is there to teach you that there are some things in the world are stronger than you and that you need to know that running away is an option. If you don’t, you will…

Eh, I feel like they’ve reliably had at least 1 good game in there every month for a while now.

There’s nothing wrong with saying you think the game is pathetic and sad. It would be a different story if you’re saying something like “this is filth and people who play it are sex offenders.”

That is not a video game movie.

Play on Iron Man mode. Problem solved!

I wish I remembered this quest as fondly as you do. For me, the long boring slog through the Deep Roads made me stop caring about anything else and only wish to get all the dwarf business over with as quickly as possible.

I work from home pretty often and having a home office and running a business from home seems like two pretty distinct things to me.
