Thanks for the info! I’m likely going to get my ass kicked, but the feeling of beating a really tough enemy was one of the greatest boons to HZD’s gameplay. The machines are tough, but tough in a way that requires some creativity and reflexes to beat, not in a one-shot-kill-throw-your-controller type of manner, and I…

What difficulty level are you doing? I just started the DLC on Hard from a New Game+, currently on level 51 and all this talk of challenge has me excited.

Honestly, the day this show decides to do what you’ve alluded to is the day I check out. They’d be better off ignoring it all together because I have absolutely zero faith that this show (or frankly any show that isn’t centering those stories) could do that justice. Something that big can’t be a little side note in…

Last week I finally beat The Last of US. I’m so happy I miraculously managed to go all these years without having any part of this game revealed to me, because that was beautiful ride. I’m not usually one for intense resource management type of games, but I found that aspect really elevating the experience. Having to…

I beat it on Normal the first time, but I did exactly what you did during the hacking security unit on my second play through. That unit is one of my only complaints about the game. I loathe that last section, and it really halts a lot of momentum the game was building so I understand your frustration. I have to echo…

I love everything about this.

Which is why Bojack Horseman intentionally torching hundreds of thousands of dollars for charity by answering “Who starred in Harry Potter” with “Elijah Wood” is the best.

I find the Death Note intro (What’s Up People) to be delightfully ridiculous, but then, it kinda matches how I approached that show, not taking it too seriously.

I bought every version of Way Down in the Hole that played on The Wire. It’s crazy to think that it evokes hatred. That song brings me nothing but joy (and well, I guess memories of the terrible things that happened in the song’s respective season).

I don’t know anything about this man or what he’s purporting to do, but having a black spouse doesn’t mean you aren’t a racist and refraining from using racial slurs is about the lowest bar possible. Hell, Milo Yiannopoulos married a black man. I have no horse in this race, but racists marry self-hating people of…

My sibling is a costume designer and after she pointed out the bad wigs last season, I cannot unsee it. I was happier being blithely unaware, but now my eyes zero in on it with a quickness.

I went and read the entire article on Uproxx, and I thought the questions were intended to point out how incompetent the storytelling in the TV show is, no? At least, that’s how it came across to me. It would be extremely disappointing to see yet another critic (or man period) engaging in this type of gatekeeping but…

Shots fired!

I literally came here to say this.

This week I’m excited to finally get around to playing The Last of Us. This game has been one I’ve wanted to play for a long time but continuously put off. I started playing it with an ex-partner years ago, but we split when I was only a few hours in. It’s funny how things become associated with specific people…

Ya’ll have summarily convinced me. I’ll shell out the few coins and buy a bundle.

Do I need to play the first Dishonored to appreciate the second? Dishonored 2 is currently on sale, and I’d really like to dig into it. I own the first Dishonored on Steam (playing through the first few missions but neglecting to finishing it after getting sucked into some other games), but my poor little computer is…

While that stinks, I’m also happy for Glover to be working so steadily and receiving so many well-deserved accolades. 

Thank you for reminding me that this happened. When is Atlanta coming back?

As dramatic as it sounds, I literally gasped out loud when the camera panned over to her face for the first time. It was extremely unsettling, and I found myself looking at the screen sideways every time her “face” was visible.
