I'm not going to bother reading all these comments, as I assume most of them amount to "Shut your goddamn mouth, Kotick."
@cowboyhugbees: I'm surprised devs have struggled so much with adapting controls to touch screen. So many just do onscreen controls and call it "good". (Which it isn't.)
Can I bypass the larger discussion and point out that this is super ugly?
Third. Always have. First person, ironically, has always seemed like a less realistic viewport. In real life we aren't limited to tunnel vision for our perspective. We are simultaneously aware of most of what is around us, and third person always felt like a better way to portray that. For example I disagreed very…
@AerintheGREAT: Agreed.
Fools and their money are easily parted.
I accepted (and loved) the ending not because I play video games but because I don't need to be spoon fed my entertainment.
Digital copy already downloaded and ready to go. Will purchase as soon as they let me tomorrow.
If nothing else, maybe this will start a real conversation about how 99% of forum/comment-section discourse is inane and mind numbing at best and insensitive, prejudiced, purposely hurtful and cowardly it is at worst. It's why I can't, never have, and probably never will hang out in forums.

Most people live in places in-between giant cities and Podunk, Kansas. My only recommendation is to check your area, and don't listen to…
Overall a good read, but there are a couple of bits of bad advice or incorrect information:
@SigmundTheSeaMonster: Way ahead of you. I'm all Amazon these days. Like most sane people I choose my retailer based on its actual merits, not on the pointless bobbles and shiny trinkets they insist add value.
@Sparx: Also, who says I don't use my iPhone as a phone? The phone part of it is the best phone I've ever had. Don't hate, sir.
@OrionnoirO: I'm not exactly in the Xbox core demographic either. I'm a bit too old.
Wow. What a get, MS! So much crossover appeal with your core demographic!
@kiddicus:
