Well, prior to this, your holo-fairy did all this for you and had all the expositionary dialogue.

There was so much weird defense for this game in the idea that the next game would be good, so this game is thus good even though it’s bad. “Imagine how awesome the sequel will be! So this game is good!”

In older games, especially when 3D was just getting started, many technical ways in which the image (well, more precisely, the world space itself) was being rendered made it very easy to just bulk add onto it. That is to say, mirrors in games don’t reflect light, they are essentially portals that connect to a reversed…

Nice Doom analysis, never thought about some of those points. In fact, seems like Doom could be a much more interesting, nuanced character if removed from the ‘comic’ part of comic books.

Hmm. Maybe toss some shoulder pylons on there...

I’m thinking an FF movie would only work as a light comedy/dramedy where their powers are a background detail, and there are no big set pieces.

I totally agree with you. I was pretty upset when Google was getting thrashed for coincidentally collecting unsecure Wifi info, since I (and you) know that information is rather useless as any sort of life tracking thing but people were too technically ignorant to understand that. I also like targeted ads, although…

More punchable: Assange or Cruz?

Totally agree on femship growly girl voiceover. Bleh. Didn’t like either choice - Monotone Man or Gruff Girl.

Agreed - I thought his wry, detached delivery was really good and fitting. I think the lines were fine too - I mean, this is a fantastical future where technology is so wondrous that it almost is magic, so we’ve come all the way around on the terminology. So archaic terms, like Wizard, are real now - so a wizard that…

“I want to have something that reminds you of ‘soiled’ but also that pop culture gag about space cannibalism. What ya got?”

If this is some shitty stunt by a ‘youtube celeb’... well, fuck him anyway for being a ‘youtube celeb’, but triple fuck him for doing this for clicks

Cartoon Pole Position had it right years ago

“As much as some motorcycle fellas get their panties in a bunch over the Spyder, it’s a motorcycle.”

Cortana syndrome would be more apt, she is the Exposition Fairy of Halo that never stops talking and is always telling you everything to do. Navi just makes noises.

Target fixation is not counter steering. Bicycles or motorcycles cannot be direct steered unless they are traveling about < 1mph, since the camber of the tire prevents this at speeds above that - hence, the absolute need to counter steer. Can-Am Spyders and similar vehicles with car tires are the exception.

You really are just ignorant here, but Austin has you backed into a corner and now you’re just being defensive. Austin is being a jerk about it, but he is not wrong, and you are being needlessly paranoid.

I keep my Steam and Origin installs pointed to a different drive; after I change OSs and reinstall either service, when I point them back to that drive, all my stuff is there (no need for reinstall).

Oh, absolutely. I was mainly relating that in the classifieds, around 2k is where a basic bike that runs and has no immediate issues stands at the moment.

The insane cries for the start menu always baffled me. Geeks hate change sometimes, I suppose.
