Yeah, it desperately needs a modernized combat system, and the first three chapters have some pacing issues (it takes forever to get out of that damned swamp) but I definitely enjoyed it. One of the first RPGs I can recall that made good and evil more murky, and decisions could have rational but unexpected consequences…

1. Correlation is not causation.

How would you know? You didn’t read it.

Really? I read about Schreier’s reporting on this story here on Kotaku.

You have to consider it in the context of freelance work. Any one job has to pay enough to keep you going for a LONG time

Raises an eyebrow for sure, but I wonder if the issue was more around the concept of a “mandate” such that the people actually running the site were uncomfortable with someone being able to unilaterally make decisions about content without their input.

No, he’s heading for an appeal.  

They offered three times the union rate, and she demanded six figures plus residuals. Platinum were right to say no.

Then go the fuck away.  There are plenty of other places to grind your axe.

Yeah, this is less a disappointment and more a confirmation of a building apprehension.

The Polygon review linked above basically says the boss battles are clearly built for two people, but they can be done solo.

Then don’t read it. Stop blaming other people for you insistence on annoying yourself.

Kotaku rarely gets review copies anymore.  They don’t get their hands on the game until we do, and 24-48 hours is not much time to get a review done.

Story stuff looks cool.  Combat looks completely illegible.  

Morally, I agree.  I’m just wondering what the legal basis is of the lawsuit is.  You can’t legally defame the dead, and you can’t expect to sue someone for hurting your feelings and win, no matter how despicable they are.

I don’t think you can legally commit defamation against the dead, so I’m curious what the basis for the suit is.

Using desperate, disadvantaged people to promote your shitty politics under the guise of helping and clothing them is a level of disgusting that is difficult to comprehend.  

You came back. You didn’t even get a notification, but you couldn’t help yourself.

Jesus, buddy, slow down. Your “indifference” is overwhelming.
