CP77 was buggy in a technical way, a way that could be improved (and honestly should not have been released on the PS4 in the first place, but I understand why they did). There are systems for sure that can be overhauled in Starfield, but the core components of a Bethesda game just aren’t there (storytelling and…

Yeah, the first planet I tried to Bethesda-explore (POI to POI) ended up being caves and a mining facility filled with robots... just like all the other mining facilities filled with robots.

This game doesn’t fulfill the promise of a standard Bethesda gameplay loop: Intrigue (quest/thing on map)-> Explore -> Combat/Puzzle -> Loot/Reward -> Sell/Improve. I did replays of FO4, and ES IV and V in the past year where I’d spend hours at a time playing, so I don’t think it’s me. My complaints are that even for…

I will say that it does provide a decent playground for modders.

It’s bittersweet in that NV got its 84 for being buggy, due mostly in part to factions and diverging quest lines not playing well with the engine. Starfield gets its 84 not for bugs, but for a limp storyline and UX hell.

If you’re going to have the RGB lighting in court, either turn it off or commit and go all out.

You might be on to something, she was reportedly objecting to every piece of evidence brought up against Trump.

Should have led with Nahnatchka Khan directing, she rules!

Look, I love Bethesda-ass Bethesda games, but this is just ass that I’m forcing myself to play.

I mean I have done a FO4 replay last year, and just finished replays of Oblivion and Skyrim, where I could go hours and hours playing, in spite of having played all three countless of times before. But in spite of having “new things” to do with outcomes I have no clue about, it’s just utterly boring and the gameplay…

To be fair it took a long while for people to catch on that MacFarlane didn’t do much other than VA for American Dad and they weren’t even hiding that.

There was an article that popped up right after the DV charges came up, where basically he was all but fired after the third season because of just being an immature jackass (at best). With this article, it seems like Harmon is probably the only reason Roiland wasn’t fired outright.

He talks way too much trash for his music to be sounding the way it does.

I was about to wonder why he didn’t sign up with any of the Nashville scene, but since his 15 minutes are nearly up (and to his credit, he doesn’t seem to want to play the right-wing grift), he’s probably going with the offer of the biggest money. Doubt Nashville sees any future for him.

It’s not particularly the algo dying, it’s that Twitter Blue subscribers try to farm engagement (get more views/retweets/quote tweets) by tweeting bad/”controversial” takes. Since engagement is monetized, it just creates a feedback loop of artificial “discourse”. It’s become even more of a hellsite because everyone is…

It’s definitely about cost and branding. Snap has been relatively neutral compared to Twitter as to what it is. Also, nobody really had much a problem with the original Twitter Blue folks that had 10k+ followers subscribing for $3 to edit posts and have better control of their brand. It became an issue when Musk tried…

We can’t be thinking about quality of life, we need to trust the medical expertise of some rando on the internet deeming what’s extreme obesity and what’s not so we can deal with a [checks notes] supply problem.

I know, it’s terrible that people now have the ability to lose weight (and avoid the comorbidities that come with obesity) in a relatively easy fashion.

The first planet I decided to explore without any quest prompting had a mining outfit on it populated by hostile bots. I thought it was kinda cool until the next planet I did that on had the exact same mining outfit populated by hostile bots. Every time I get the feeling like I’m entering the groove of this game,…

Believe it or not, you can have a comedian that doesn’t embellish their child being exposed to anthrax for sympathy AND that comedian also doesn’t rape people. Weird, I know!
