I'll be honest: I'm a little surprised that a towel isn't on this list.  It may have started out as a joke in HGttG, but I can see it being very useful under various circumstances on a hike.

To be the “World’s Greatest Games Company,” they must first be a games company.

I would've just given you the mats to craft stuff for leves, myself, as well as a macro or two to raise the quality of your crafts as high as possible.  Did you know that the exp you get from crafting in FFXIV is, in part, directly related to how high you can raise the quality bar?

I main healer in FFXIV, and I view healing as more or less ancillary to the role. The way I see it, if everyone survives without affecting their performance due to fear of death, then I did my job properly. The faster things die, the less I need to heal. The less I need to heal, the more I can concentrate on doing…

The car racing app would crash.  Nice pun.

I just want to be able to join and leave matches at any time, preferably from a match/server list.

I would say I concur, but given Valve’s recent poor quality control, I doubt this will mean anything.

I learned that the entire rule mnemonic goes, “I before E except after C or when sounded like A as in ‘neighbor’ or ‘weigh.’”

I didn’t even get past the intro screen on the playable demo. It told me that A is jump and B is attack. The only time when it is permissible for A to be jump is when X is attack. The only time when it is permissible for B to be attack is when there is no jump.

My friends tried to sell me on this mouse for FFXIV by letting me try theirs at our mutual friend’s house. The buttons bound to key combinations (alt+num, Ctrl+num) worked extremely poorly, often using only the basic num instead of the key combination, and sometimes doing absolutely nothing at all (presumably only…

Even worse on my PC. Also, could this have been just as easily conveyed through text?

“Find the correct inputs, and you can critical path your way to sex.”

Is that video available in a different player?

“Another fun effect of level-scaling is that every enemy aggros now.”

Appropriately enough, the music that plays when you fly the Falcon (and subsequently also pulls a BGM override on the grim, depressing overworld music in WoR) is called “Searching for Friends.”

I think it’s worth note that, since the Changkey Makers have a fire motif, the player may be inspired to use the water weapon against them. Doing so may also give them the idea to use Bubble Lead not just as a weapon to kill fire enemies, but also as a tool to probe the terrain and estimate where edges and walls are,…

Didn’t China already try this, only for Blizzard to sidestep it by making Overwatch’s loot crates only purchasable with in-game currency (which, itself, was only purchasable with real money?)

“Our goal involves creating a compelling progression path for all of our players.” I’ve yet to see a PvP game where people actually WANT this kind of progression!

I think the closest Blizzard ever came to a non-evil loot box scenario was in Heroes of the Storm. Loot boxes in that game cannot be purchased (to my recollection); they are only earned through playing the game and reaching milestones on your account. Actual in-game items can be purchased either through in-game…

Awww, I actually liked that game.
