So people were actually begging for GaMERCaT to be included each week?

There was like a 15 year gap between when I first got a Jokulhaups and when I figured out how to pronounce it

“fancy buzzwords”

I also have it, but there’s a few things going on with it that don’t sit right with me. I appreciate that they remastered the music, but I think it sounds off, like it has very little dynamic range. I would have liked an option to go with the original tracks. And the controls are much stiffer. I’ve heard that this is…

Not really a fan. The existence of the theoretical “god roll” more or less means that, even if you get the weapon you want, you’re getting a junk version that isn’t as viable as it could be. Topped with the fact that you can’t really grind for a specific weapon, the crapshoot becomes exponential

All this Saturn merch has me hopeful for some kind of Saturn Mini in the future. Wanna play NiGHTS til I die

This makes me want to go dig up my old copy of the PS1 ReBoot game

If we’re talking about ReTail, that means we’re talking about New Leaf, and if we’re talking about New Leaf, we’re certainly glossing over the fact that The Roost, the shoe store, the fortune-telling store, the dream suite, and the boutique all require financial investment of some manner, either by spending bells at…

From the looks of it, the charge delay gives the enemy player time to run to the spot the wielder is aiming.

Can’t say the fault lies entirely with Sleeper. Gambit stages have wide open sight lines, very limited cover options, lots of distractions for the home team, and invaders are dropped far away from the action in sniper/sleeper range. Any long range camping friendly option would be dominant, and it just happens that…

I remember way, way back, one of the issues of Nintendo Power around the time of Melee’s release came with an orchestral soundtrack. I loved it, but it was eventually stolen from my car along with the rest of my CDs. Some years after that, I got curious and ended up calling the Nintendo support line asking if there…

Sniping isn’t just viable because of the weapon update, the sightlines on these maps are wide open. After a while, invasion just become a Sleeper check to make sure you have one

Door swings both ways; to me, that just means every version of Truth you get without those perks is a waste. Now instead of hoping you get a good weapon, you have to hope you get a usable version of that weapon

I've been backfilled into Gambit matches, so I'm fairly certain it'll fill a roster, but surely not guaranteed

I finished the quest pretty quickly. I took some issues with it: the wording for the invader portion is confusing, so I thought I needed to do the invading in order to get credit for kills. I didn’t care for the scavenger hunt portion, either, since it gives no clues beyond what planet to travel to.

Why isn’t trash art? Why isn’t replicated trash art? Why was this piece displayed? Why doesn’t explicit merit qualify? If artistic merit is intrinsic, when is a piece finished, and who decides that? There’s hours of discussion in just that one accidentally discard installation if you know how and do more than look…

I think it’s much more likely that you just don’t know how to analyze and discuss art beyond immediate visual appeal

That’s a good and valid reason for the inclusion of the texture, but I think the modern context, as well as the game’s nature as a product for purchase, make it much, much iffier. At some point, the price of realism is going to have to weighed against the cost of association with groups that still use the symbol for…

The first and only message I ever left in a Souls games was Dark Souls 3: “giant horse but whole!”

I wish this article was about how “git gud” is the death knell of meaningful games discussion and not how the floors of Anor Londo look awfully similar to the walls of Pompeii
