I’m the sort of person who hates DLC and spending extra money on games, and I find Overwatch’s loot boxes to be perfect. So far, I’ve obtained everything I ever wanted without spending any real money, mostly because I save my coins for skins I actually want (particularly when I know there’s a holiday coming up). I…

You’re right. Back when I was a little kid, Duck Tales and Chip ‘n Dale were some of the only NES games I ever beat, so they couldn’t have been that hard.

Eh, even an “unearned” loot box is still going to have three sprays and a player icon 9 times out of 10.

The lack of XP kept me from messing around with custom games before the browser, and if they remove it again, my interest would be significantly reduced. Sure, there’s some fun games out there, but I like to feel as if the hours I put into this game get me a little something more than amusement.

Classy stuff. I’d gladly pay for a nice coffee table book full of these pictures.

That Nendoroid whups the crap out of all the Overwatch Pops we’ve got, but I’m still baffled by the lack of more realistic figures. I’d buy those in a heartbeat, no hesitation.

Yeah, it feels like something is up with the special loot boxes. During Year of the Rooster, I got Zarya’s goth legendary twice, and one of the holiday player icons five times. That’s not to say that I didn’t get any cool skins, and I always save up in advance when I know there’s another event coming up, but yeah...…

It’s more complicated than you might realize. It’s easy to think that folks who like that stuff are sadists, but the truth is plenty of people, both men and women, enjoy seeing their favorite characters in a vulnerable state. A certain imbalance of power can be arousing, if enjoyed responsibly and consensually. Pain…

It’s awesome, yes. The way you use the ODM gear is pretty novel and feels good when you’re in the zone, zipping from one titan to the next, though it’s simplified and slowed down a bit out of necessity. Like most of Koei Tecmo’s Warriors games, it does require a lot of grinding, especially if you want to hit the…

Sometimes I just don’t have a proper computer or tablet close at hand and I need to look up how to do something in a game. It’s not ideal, but it works in a pinch.

Since Gamestop’s corporate people saw the last article, I hope to god someone in the higher echelons of the company is reading this right now. Know this, suit: These kind of stories are why I only walk into your store maybe once a year and always leave empty-handed.

Agreed. Never paid attention to the Oscars before. In fact, the number of awards and nominations plastered across the front of a movie is more likely to turn me away than pique my interest, since my tastes lean towards genres that rarely get invited to the party.

I’d pay good money for a D.Va that can get in and out of her mech. I hope Blizzard has something in the works.

One swift and decisive act of violence could have prevented six million deaths back in the 1940s. If the parallels keep adding up and history repeats itself, I hope we’ll have the courage to do what’s necessary.

These Nazis actually control most of our government now. They’re not going to allow criticism, civil discourse and peacefully changing laws. There’s only so much you can do within the system when it’s completely stacked against you.

When it comes to people who like sexy stuff in their entertainment, why exactly do you think of them as strange or inferior?

I interpreted the question “How old are you?” to mean, “If you’re on your deathbed, yeah you probably won’t see this stuff, but if you’re still relatively young, you might just be lucky enough to see these marvels in your lifetime.” I could be wrong, though.

It’s purely there for the challenge. If you’re the sort of completionist that has to do every sidequest before you move on with the main story, you can find yourself pretty overleveled.

That kid is going to be picked on no matter what. Even if he or she has a nice, normal name, children are awful and will always find something to tease the kid about. It’s unavoidable, and because of that, I don’t think parents should shy away from giving their kid a special name that just so happens to come from a…

I’m way more of a D.Va guy myself, but if Blizzard made her gay tomorrow, I’d be overjoyed, not distraught.
