Rather than doing something within the scope of the video game, they should do sometihng like the HUman-Turian First Contact war.

Took my 2 year old son to the ER, after he climbed atop his oozy coupe, and launched himself towards the sofa, flipped over the arm, and opened up a big profusely bleeding cut on his chin. No stitches, but needed to get it glued shut.

Don’t check out QAnon message boards.

Red Baron?

Also, I’ve been waiting for a new mainline title suikoden game since 2006, sooooo yeah. 2021/22 doesn’t seem far off after a 15 year wait.

PR dept: It’s pride month, please do something involving LGBTQ characters.

I don’t mind battles taking longer—the easy way to accomplish that without screwing with morale is to have units do less damage.  Which people have done iwth mods.

Heh, I absolutely hated Rome 2, so we can’t be more different in opinion there.  To each their own.

My main objection to more recent TW titles has been the way the morale has been boosted, so you have to kill 70%+ of any army bfeore it breaks and runs. It limits the value of tactical maneuvering and makes many historical tactics worthless.

Rome 2 was around when they jacked up the base morale of troops, where like 70-80% of a force has to die before an army breaks and runs.  A policy they’ve kept since, and is my least favorite thing about recent TW games.

The last historical Total War game i really enjoyed was Shogun 2, which was, jesus, 11 years ago now (I feel ancient).

You realize in a weekly manga, there will be another manga due the week after right?

Osamu tezuka died at only 60, and his last words were (to his nurse) “I’m begging you, please let me work” so I’m not entirely convinced he’s a model of healthy work life balance.

The gap between graphical improvements has vastly slowed in a ten year span, so it’s a lot easier for games to stay relevant.

Just as an FYI, I know the 99% statistic for Japanese prosecutors gets bandied about a lot on the internet, but it’s good to understand American Prosecutors get around 95% conviction rate too.

Because when you see people openly grieving someone they’ve lost, it’s emotionally touching if you feel empathy for people who are sad.

When I saw Aortic dissection, I immediately thought of Mike. It’s heartbreaking to lose Miura, and as a fan, I feel lucky Mike made it through when so few people do.

Its also interesting because theoretically you could train the AI with different art styles. Feed it enough images from Ghibli films and in theory it could make GTA look like a scene from My Neighbor Totoro, unless I misunderstood

It’s (i assume) a joking reference to Konami, which despite being a beloved maker of Japanese games and owner of various IPs like Suikoden and Star Ocean, gave up making games since making Pachinko machines was way more profitable.

That’s dumb.  You also take a mouthful of cash with you.
