So, I’ll admit gently skimmed through most of your review rather than reading it in detail to avoid even the possibility of the most minute of spoilers, but I do have one important question:

That’s a pretty damn short list - as in, none of the 2-dozen or so last second pre-orders I made before the deadline are on it.

That’s a pretty damn short list - as in, none of the 2-dozen or so last second pre-orders I made before the deadline…

That was my first thought, too.

Maybe it’s just me, but my enjoyment of fantasy games doesn’t hinge on whether they are high- or low-fantasy, but rather in whether they are well-written and have solid gameplay.

You’re inferring a lot about the situation that we simply don’t know; depression and weight-gain have high co-morbidity, but from the contents of his letter, we have insufficient information as to which is the root causal factor, or even whether a third factor may be responsible.

That’s how I played it back in the day, and made it just about as far, eventually just giving up.

lmao, when I first read your comment, I thought it was in response to IFTFNS’s “And since it’s electric there’s no need to add a silencer!"

Hey, not all of them used cotton!

Lol, some classic Trabbis (as we Germans lovingly call them) are literally built out of old newspapers; at the DDR (Soviet East-Germany) Museum in Berlin, they have a running exhibition on the history of the famed vehicle, if you're ever in the area.

That is awesome, I had no idea they could be potty-trained (I knew they were smart, just figured they didn't care). But yeah, the short lifespan is definitely a bummer - I'm not sure I could handle that.

Well, probably a very short one. I can't begin to count the number of times I've received dead rats as a 'gift' from our cats. It's not that I don't appreciate the gesture, but...

Rats and mice are cute little critters that I wouldn’t even mind running around free at home, if it weren’t for the poop.

This is why I pre-ordered rechargeable packs (in a set with a charging dock) right alongside my Xone.

You’ve clearly not been playing booby-pinball with the right girls (or sumo-class guys); every cat-girl in my area that enjoys booby-pinball has boobs with very similar functionality.

The Tales franchise does this pretty well, having you continually earn points throughout the game, that you can then turn in at the start of a NG+ in exchange for carrying things over (as well as other bonuses).

The Soulsborne games, off the top of my head. But plenty of other games too, although usually, it’s not that level-1 enemies do godlike damage, but that all enemies get a massive level boost.

Note to self: When juggling elves, for best results, use blades, not axes, or you may go blind.

Since the dawn of time (or the release of Doom II, take your pick), there have been two kinds of gamers: the Super Shotgun lovers, and the Super Shotgun haters - those that love the massively increased damage and are willing to risk the longer reload, and those that like to play it safe, sacrificing powerful burst and…

That seems like a lot of effort for the cash value a single key... Even if you set up a spam-bot to do most of the work for you, I can’t see it making much money compared to the amount of time/effort/potential legal trouble. It’s not like the developers send out 100-packs of keys to each reviewer.

What ever happened to to good old-fashioned piracy? If you want to play without paying, at least have the decency not to bother the developer.
