Good thing he’s not overprotective or overdefensive about his own work like... I don’t know... Bioware for example. Different thing but... okay, I just felt like slamming Bioware, actually!

Watch out Cassandra. You wanna get fired like that other guy? Yes!? Okay, keep talking then.

I hate cancer. It’s a dark cloud looming in the distance all the time and it makes you feel powerless. I also lost my dad at an early age to it. I’m always glad to see the sense of communion it creates though, like with this. I think I’m donating. Even if his cancer turns out to be incurable this will matter to his…

Glad to see Wind Waker there. It was the most alienating exprience that I loved 100%. There’s something otherworldly about sinking beneath the sea and discovering hyrule stuck in place where the sky is ripples and waves instead of clouds. I swear that game had some true creative genius, and strangely it’s the…

A lot of the music is ambient versions of real compositions. The flagship theme “Castle in the Mist” has 3-4 ambient versions in the soundtrack too, like when you meet Yorda, for example.

I think ICO is something everyone should try at some point. Many developers should take inspiration from its minimalistic design. Actually, I started playing Witcher 3 while removing all HUD but Health and a few equipment things because of this game. Try it. It makes the game more immersive.

Fallout 3, despite being a third in the series really was more of a reboot or spiritual successor that defined last gen. Last gen we saw games move from iconic, video-gamey and cartoony into more serious and “cinematic”. We went from Jak & Daxter to Uncharted and we went from Sly to InFamous and etc.

I know it’s nitpicky, but I hate the title of the game. So many indies like these are too obvious and focused on a single idea... which I suppose isn’t all bad. It’s like short-stories in literature, but when I see the premise, I already feel like I know most conclusions the game is going to arrive at. I’ll probably…

On the subject of localization and writing, I just want to say I hope they get rid of Audrey or whomever was responsible for the incredibly teenage-fanfic writing that plagued the american version of Triforce Heroes. Seriously, NoA. I’m okay with some internet slang but outright memespouting in a Zelda game? Staahp.…

Lipschultz is your average GBATemp-level fan-translator weeaboo who wants translations to be as literal as possible so it doesn’t even sound idiomatically english.

So ironic. Nintendo has ALWAYS done this, so what changed for this guy? In the Japanese version of Earthbound Ness walks naked instead of in a pyjamas for example.

Phoenix Wright!?

I hate this guy. Such an overzealous, fake person.

I tried playing it, and while the prose is quite above your usual video game writing, it’s still SUPER corny and nerdy but I’m sure a lot of people don’t mind that and I could live with it.

Greatly sums up why this game is so good.

I love Spider-Man 2 as well, but watching it recently with a friend he said something that kinda ruins it for me.

Why would you ask two creators of western open-world games how to remake a smaller and tighter yet explorative JRPG remake? They almost have nothing in common.

So basically they lacked the budget to do a proper remake of the complete FFVII adventure... OR, TRANSLATION: Our bosses wouldn’t give us the money to make one proper game when we can milk our trusting consumers’ money-tits for 3.

Ashley, the xenophobic human crew member in Mass Effect was also voiced by a black woman even though she’s white in the game.

Goes to show once again, Sony is all about business and trends now, and they’re not the gamer-oriented people people talked them up to be back with their initial PS4 outing.
