I realize I’m firmly in the minority, but GoW didn’t do it for me. I just couldn’t get into it. It was obviously a very high quality game, but for whatever reason I didn’t care for it. That said, I played through almost all of it and I don’t see how it’s better than RDR2. Tighter narrative experience, maybe, but RDR2…

Fair enough, my long-suffering friend. You’re right that the Browns are kind of feisty now. They’ve just been such a punching bag for so long that it’s easy to throw stones at them. My apologies!

I’ve been reading the Jambaroo for many, many years and I think every bit Drew uses is borderline or full-on genius. But I completely skip the Cryptkeeper Al Davis section every week. It’s awful. Bring back nazi shark. Bring back Robert Evans. Make up something about a wallaby who is a part time uber driver. Anything…

OK, somebody walk me through this, because I was actually planning on getting an instant pot for my fiance for Christmas. Isn’t the whole point of an instant pot that it cooks stuff in a ludicrously short amount of time? You shouldn’t need to worry about timing it out during the day like you would a crock pot. I can…

100 mil per year. It’s a 10 year deal. A billion total. 

I’ll admit that old bumper sticker was tasteless as hell, but it seems silly to condemn an entire fan base for one stupid transgression 20 years ago. My understanding was always that Nebraska fans are among the most highly regarded in college football. General respect towards opposing fans, standing ovations for…

the Jonas character ends up being swallowed by the meg, pushing his way through her insides to get to her beating heart which he tugs on and eventually severs from its blood supply with one of her own teeth.

Definitely not bad, but the gameplay and mission structure gets pretty repetitive. But the production values are good and it’s worth spending some time with, especially as a freebie. 

The other night I drank some cheap beer and then took a piss and let it mellow, and when I came back to the toilet in the middle of the night to piss again, the smell nearly gave me a concussion.

I fully admit I’m not well-versed in the esports scene, but can someone who is familiar with it clarify what exactly a coaching role looks like? The article mentions the practice schedule as it pertains to this coach, so are they more like a team manager that sets the schedule and handles logistics? Or are they…

It’s fine, I’m sure anxiety makes your mind go through all kinds of loops. No offense taken to anything. Reading back through the old thread, it was clear we came to a mutual understanding. Thanks for your kind words about Nita. It was sad, but it’s something we kind of accept when we welcome animals into our lives.…

No worries, I was just honestly confused. I barely remembered our conversation until I looked back over the thread. I hope your cats are doing well! I actually had to put down my oldest cat two weeks ago :(

Did...did you just reply to a thread from over a year ago?

I take it you haven’t played it? It definitely is not the typical RPG formula with various towns spread around an overworld map. There are a few hub areas where you can pick up sidequests, but not a lot. Maybe 4 or 5 areas in the whole game? It’s been over a year since I played it so I don’t recall exactly. The…

I’m not sure I’d agree that they are the most inept and shitty major developer working right now, but I understand your point. I still think that as a whole, historically the Final Fantasy franchise has featured a strong narrative tone and delivered good stories, even if somewhat unevenly at times. XV, while I enjoyed…

That’s the best goddamn breakdown of this game’s story issues that I’ve ever seen. That’s exactly how I felt about it. Wasted opportunity, really. There was (and I guess still is?) a lot of potential with the game engine. But the story was a dumpster fire (which is INEXCUSABLE for a game in development this long and…

Yeah, there hasn’t really been a mainstream AAA title that would appeal to a broad audience yet, and a lot of the content is fluff. But the few full-fledged products (like Robo Recall) really give a glimpse of what this type of medium can deliver. I hope you get the chance to try a Vive or Rift at a retail location or…

Cassie, how has a giant gamer like yourself not tried any VR yet? You need to demo this shiz!

Arnheim, you’re one of the few people on Kinja that I follow, because you consistently deliver well-reasoned and thoughtful comments, whether it’s on the subject of the article itself or in response to another commentor. Just wanted to give you that feedback. People like you (and there are a good handful between all…

I’ll still play this, because I enjoyed the first one so much and I’m a sucker for good cloak physics, but this is annoying. And seemingly unneccesary. With the goodwill carried over from the first game, and the marketing power of WB behind them, this game will likely be very successful and sell a lot of copies, not…
