I had a similar thing happen with Witcher 3. I was trying to play it, in as this article puts it, “Dad Mode” when I was suddenly accosted by several bandits. In retrospect I should have just paused it immediately, but instinct took over I promptly dismembered one and set fire to the others before I thought to pause.…

I’m a grown man, and getting mauled by that legendary bear was nerve-wracking for me as well, so I feel your daughter’s pain. 

Yah, I tried that. I’ve done it in the past with other not-so-kid friendly games, and it’s usually worked out ok.

Actually, you randomly increase your honor level as you “greet” folks around town and on the road, so there is a reward of sorts. You can see the little cowboy hat icon with a + appear on the right side of the screen from time to time. I say “randomly” now because I haven’t been able to determine if there’s a game…

How much extra hp do you get out of a leather hat, googles and a red scarf? 

This is the porpoise of photo mode...

One day, Hamno, you’ll realize that the rich are just the players on our team who’ve spent less time bitching about the rules and rolled up their sleeves and got busy working. A classic case of “don’t hate the player, hate the game.”

The biggest good faith move would be to not fix what wasn’t broken.

Yes I disagree with you. The green Halo edition original Xbox and the N64 color editions were awesome. This PS4 looks particularly well done.

“His dad was the scary old guy in Twin Peaks.”

I’m in, but demand the right to add a PowerPoint slide observing how weird it is that we get misty-eyed over Disqus, of all things.

I didn’t exactly leave, but I did stop commenting, because it became very difficult to have a conversation in the comments. You’d get vague notifications, but there was no way to organically communicate without constant refreshes.

So I still read a ton of the articles, I just don’t comment anymore. Until tonight!

But what about Firefly?

I’ve been hanging around this site for years. Was that the BEST use of my time? Dunno. But it provided an outlet for snarky jokes and pointed me towards some truly amazing shows and movies I never would have watched otherwise, helping me to steer clear of others that weren’t worthy. Like many other long-timers, I was…

I, for one, welcome our Doof Warrior lord and savior.

Maybe the only thing that’s still going full speed in here in Brazil is the meme factory. In this one somebody is trying to sell a Fiat Marea, emphasys on the fact that the fuel tank is totally full of gasoline, maybe the best way to sell this car in the moment, given the relyability myths involving it

Alternately they could have just sent the boys home to reflect on how they could have handled that better, and let Alia Shawkat and Jessica Walter continue the press tour.

Chris is the genuine article, and one of my very favorite videogame critics. Glad you enjoyed this as much as I did.
