That’s not really true, and it matters what it actually says. Especially it’s untrue outside the US, and Sony is very international. In the EU/UK and many other parts of the world, you simply cannot override actual laws/rights with a TOS. Even in the US, it’s questionable, especially as different states are likely to…

Not outside the US they don’t. You can’t dictate people’s legal rights in real countries. Even in the US, attempts to force people to use arbitration haven’t worked out as well as companies have wanted. Especially as a large number of people entering arbitration can be more expensive to a company than a class action…

Put it like this, I played for about 15 hours, and at that point, it was already so repetitive that I was getting seriously bored. Skyrim got to like, I dunno, 60-100 hours before I felt like it was this level of repetition - and even then it was less boring because Skyrim feels pretty handcrafted in a way Starfield…

It’s genuinely quite hard to watch PoI after that revelation, yeah, because it really colours how you see his portrayal of the character. Especially when you find out he was feuding with the dog! It takes a special mind for an adult man to get into a feud with was apparently an exceptionally friendly dog (and got the…

Fuck yes I love this line (FEV = woke mind virus). Ahhh it’s almost too perfect.

Buddy, that’s the joke Squid is making.

I suspect the vault description is more about how the vaults were advertised, which is exactly “a subterranean vault, where every need and want has been satisfied while generations and generations await the day when it is safe to surface”, rather than how the vaults actually were.

Re: logic, the problem is, they could have their cake and eat it. Inhabited areas could look like inhabited areas. Humans just don’t live like that. You can bomb them, chase them, harass them, they still live better than people in FO3/4 do. They tidy, they clean, they make, they repair. They don’t just sit in piles of…

I don’t think Bethesda will let them be remastered, because, frankly, they’d make Bethesda’s Fallouts look bad. Even if the remaster was just updating the visuals and UI, Fallout 1/2 would really highlight how profoundly moronic FO3 and FO4 are.

Fallout 4 absolutely broke me because of shit like this.

I mean, I think what probably helped me with Slay the Spire is that I’m a pen and paper RPG and strategy game guy, and played a ton of CCGs/living card games, and I think if you’re into those you’re less likely to even notice that you don’t get carried over stuff. It didn’t even occur to me until your post that you…

Of deckbuilders? Can you list any deckbuilders actually better than Slay the Spire?

I mean, no insult but you definitely didn’t get Slay the Spire, it’s one of the greatest games made in the last decade, and that’s not overstatement or hyperbole. It’s notable too that a lot of non-gamers or casual gamers got it, whereas a handful of “real gamers” totally did not - not at all saying you’re the latter…

I mean, no-one believes you when you say “I’m not trying to be a jerk”, when you’re being a total wanker over 16 days. Your shitty “no editors lolz” thing really is 100% purified essence du jerk. So if you’re not trying to a jerk, you are just wildly naturally talented at it. It’s amazing.

Yeah it was definitely a cut above a lot of popular anime, possibly including a couple on this list, depending on your perspective, but I can definitely understand not including it.

Yeah that’s my main issue here. I’m definitely excited for a new ME game, but like, 2027 seems really optimistic, given:

“That is most certainly not the game we’re going to get, but it would be bold and ambitious, and would go a long way towards making the original ending(s) more than just a color-coded choice, as they originally were originally boiled down to.”

Is the second half of your post a satire of absolutely awful pedantry? Or are you really just that awful a pedant? Yes, technically Dec 15th 2022 isn’t 2023 but come the fuck on, it’s a close enough.

I feel like it’s rather weaker than the earlier Demon Slayer arcs. Not bad, but not as sharp or entertaining.

Vinland Saga S2 at #1 is 100% spot on.
