I wish they'd gone with a less generic story beat (hopefully it grows into one). I mean the story of the game is wild and has a lot to work with too.

They really worked hard to step it all up a notch. I bet they’ve spent a while before this double checking all audio from the runners and getting whatever they can ironed out.

It’ll be interesting to see what the Lockhart is like. Also, if there’s a box does this mean the controller is coming out before the console? Might be nice to play around with on my PC some.

Is this showing a black controller or just using shadow? I'd imagine they chose white for the original reveal to show features off better.

Now I feel pretty lucky I didn’t experience any store issues. The thing that was wild is just how laggy and broken the lobbies are right now.

Microsoft’s method here seems like a no-brainer. Either you keep the AA batteries or you buy one of the many rechargable battery solutions that exist. I went battery only for a while and then eventually bought a play and charge kit and haven’t looked back. But it’s nice to know that if the play and charge ever breaks…

I don't think it can beat The Spirit. Oof that movie. I have vague memories of Sam Jackson dressed as a Nazi dentist.

I noticed this last night. Especially when the ambient sounds are so loud and present. The metal creaking in hangars and stones shifting on a pile kept psyching me out.

I think he means it's not on the PC game pass?

Sad to see you both go. It feels like the DeadSpin issues unclogged a slow drain. I don’t know how I feel supporting Spanfeller but don’t want to drop Kotaku’s writers all together.

Anyone curious for some analysis on why X’s linear design felt better than XIII, this video is a really good reference:

Im glad it is coming later though. The first game had a really neat multiplayer mode.

Yeah, the Cherry one is the only one I've enjoyed enough to buy more. I do applaud them for the top design other than the fine misting it causes to any object behind it.

I would highly recommend making a character on a world that's offering the xp boost. It lasts till 70 and means you only have to do story quests (and only doing these you'll still be 6-9 levels above the content). It lets you do the story without waiting for levels.

Microsoft is behind them now so I don't think that would be why. I'd imagine it's related to a lot of studios trying to be better about crunch and delaying due to it.

Do the clones do damage too if they're leftover? That would be intense to just see someone do like 30 damage to another player.

I feel this but the other way around. I swapped from tanking to healing and it’s crazy. Focusing on a few enemies is fine but when the random dps is dying faster all of a sudden but the tank needs most heals it’s stressful.

Pretty sure they just pushed a music fix for 7 on Switch. For some reason no 9 too and not on Xbox.

The only sucky part is it takes around 60 to 8p punches to get a really good launch. But it's fun.

Id highly recommend this mouse. I've had mine a few years and it's incredible. The mode switch is great too. Fps I'll swap to high polling, otherwise normal mode saves battery.
