Paradise Killer was probably the most impactful game for my 2020. It devoured my every thought for a good week. I had every relationship mapped out, every motive/suspect/weapon connected in a mental pinup board with string. I had grand theories of how everything fit together, and possible scenarios played in my…

To make matters worse, this is the game that killed Mewgenics.

You absolutely can just jump in without playing the previous games. There are some pre-established relationships between some characters, but I got by just fine with “these two dudes have been best friends for years” without knowing every single one of their adventures together.

I’m a Star Wars fan firmly in the camp of “aside the from the original trilogy, TV shows are where the good Star Wars is.” Clone Wars, Rebels, and The Mandalorian are leaps and bounds better than anything in the prequel/sequel trilogies. I am super excited for ELEVEN new Star Wars TV shows. I was at first a little…

This isn’t an honest proposal, though. Trump is saying this knowing full well his own damn party that he’s the head of won’t do it. He can say, “I wanted to give you more, but the evil government stopped me!” Should we be giving more relief to people? Hell, yes. But let’s not pretend that this isn’t anything more than…

When I made my character, I decided he was going to be straightedge. That went flying out the window the second Jackie offered me a shot for a toast. Now he's suddenly a recovering addict.

I don’t know if resoundingly mediocre is fair. They are by no means “average” games — I’d personally go with “hints of brilliance held back by severe flaws.”

I don’t know the specific mechanics, but over time my missile reversals have gotten stronger. Those bannermen enemies used to take 2 or 3 missile reversals to kill. Now I just need one. I’m at 400 Power and have like 60 mastery points. So I think it’s based at least in some part on your own ranged damage.

The problem here is that we’re assuming the Democratic Party, in terms of its power structure, is NOT a progressive party. The Democrats, by and large, are a conservative party — they don’t want things to change, and if the public makes them, it should be in very small increments. That still puts them leaps and bounds…

Oh man, thanks for this. I had no idea it existed!

I’ve owned (or when I was younger, my family owned) the following: Commodore 64, Atari, SNES, Gamecube, Wii, Wii U, Switch, PS2, PS3, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance, DS, and 3DS. I have fond memories of all of those systems...except the PS3. I honestly cannot remember a single game I played more than a handful of hours.

Default Android Messenger has sucked really bad the last few months. Messages don’t get delivered or received, with no indication of success/failure. Issues with MMS messages not loading properly, or corrupting on send. After 3 straight months of crap like this I switched to Textra and all those problems went away.

Caaaaaliiiiiing

Fuck the Boy Scouts. From my two years in it, it was a cesspit of homophobia, violent hazing, and brainwashing. I cheered when they declared bankruptcy. My only regret is that their victims will be denied any restitution.

My wife, who is a doctor, says that I have plenty of masculine testosterone, unlike the libs, thank you very much.

The in-game store is currently selling a unicorn-rainbow-vomit longship. And if you’re an edge lord, there’s a necromancer set of armor along with a matching horse. Ubisoft is making it really easy in this game to not give a shit about the cosmetics.

The pettable version of the wolf will be another 1,000 Helix, please.

This is a stupid article, and an even worse headline. It betrays a complete lack of understanding of how “calling the election” works. Pop Crave essentially just retweeted Decision Desk HQ’s call. Decision Desk HQ was earlier than major networks because the networks had more stringent requirements for calling. AP, for…

After smashing my face against the brick wall that is Horizon: Zero Dawn, I’m super excited to play this. I want something easy and stupid.

You’re not wrong. But they specified white suburban women. No voting bloc is a monolith.
