I love all the comments from people who clearly have no experience or knowledge of this going “I dunno, looks okay to me.”

I think Majora’s Mask is an Honorable Mention. I remember playing the Snowhead Mountain section for the first time as an 11 year old and being blown away by the snow effects and the footsteps Link leaves in the snow. I know it seems very quaint now, but that memory sticks out to me.

It’s really weird that now, in 2020, this is a legitimately new and impressive facet of an RPG. I say this as the child of two alcoholics who has largely abstained my entire life and don’t see that reality acknowledged in a lot of media.

Personally, I’m just amazed that we can transport spiders to space without killing them in the process. Am I just underestimating the resiliency of spiders’ exoskeletons, or is there a special way they’re carried that protects them?

How to get Apple’s airpods max a month earlier? By buying much higher quality headphones that are currently available and cost half as much?

It’s like the shit cherry on top of the turd sundae that the Battle for Middle-Earth games are essentially abandonware now since EA’s Lord of the Rings license expired. You can’t even purchase and legally play them anymore.

I have an officially refurbished Acer Nitro 5 I bought for $500, and the thing is a champ. It can’t really run the NEWEST games, but it’s handled everything else I’ve thrown at it. And for that price, it’s unbeatable. I love it.

Fucking christ, the comments on this are whiny bullshit. Why do you guys need your opinions on something to be validated by a stranger on the internet?

Steam’s suggestions can be so funny. I’ll be looking at a game and it will tell me it doesn’t look like anything I’ve played before. Meanwhile it’s exactly like a dozen games I’ve put tons of hours into.

Can you please have Ash Parrish write something about this game so the title can be a combination of her Twitter handle and the name of the game: Ad Ashtra Per Aspera

(Which happens to be the official state motto for my home of Kansas.)

For real. The Switch’s handheld mode is the only reason I’ve been able to play so many relatively current games recently. I just don’t have time, especially not in front of our television.

Well, it helps that the SaGa creator, Akitoshi Kawazu, is a pretty high ranking exec at Square-Enix now. Almost seems a little unfair that other old Square games aren’t getting as much love, haha.

Replying 3 years later to say I completely agree.

That’s funny coming from a video game executive, considering game companies (and especially hardware manufacturers) specifically cultivated fanboy tribalism to create demographic groups that were more easily marketed to. This involved the creation of the “gamer” identity that has spawned so many incredibly toxic…

I was listening to Tanis and Black Tapes Podcast for a while, and really enjoying them. But then both went through a long stretch of spinning their wheels and not getting anywhere narratively. It seemed like it was all being made up on the spot, episode by episode, with no overarching narrative. That was around when…

There’s a direct line from Reagan to Trump. He and Nixon set the stage for the disgustingly corrupt entity that is the modern Republican Party. I’m not surprised at all that a Call of Duty game exploits Cold War era jingoism instead of being critical of the time period. The 1980s were when our country’s hell hole was…

I’m actually kind of shocked that Nintendo listened to fans and made some more inclusive hair styles. 

Well isn’t that fantastic. Anyway, where I live we’ve never had enough tests to test anyone without severe symptoms, so this is great to hear. =|

This is honestly the main reason I didn’t share this joke on social media. Today is really just the beginning of something disgusting and terrifying.

Yeah, but I don’t think anyone making the joke is making light of the situation, they’re trying to keep themselves from going insane and melting down with stress and dread.
