“We apologize if we didn’t meet your expectations,” the statement continued. “We did everything within our power, but unfortunately, we miscalculated our capabilities. Creating games is an incredibly challenging endeavor.”

There’s something wrong at the core of Starfield, and it makes me wonder if BGS/Microsoft really understand why people like their games or what gives their games longevity. It’s not the story — most Bethesda games have middling stories that only serve as an excuse to get the player to explore. “Go up the 7000 steps to

  • Now relatively lighter Blades will gain more ‘Guard Regain’, while heavier Blades gain less ‘Guard Regain’.

As a huge Bethesda fan who has put more than 10,000 hours into Skyrim over the years (and even, yes, loved Fallout 76), Starfield at the very least has serious pacing issues that prevent it from reaching the heights of the other goty nominees. This year was absolutely stacked, so I think in other years, it would at

I just know “7 seconds” was a line that translated completely nonsensically, and it made the localization team just throw up their hands, like “fuck if I know, just put something about time or some shit.”

I was really hoping that Ever Crisis was going to be that way to experience the original again, just with updated graphics, but it turned out as some sort of...weird mobile garbage, and that’s super disappointing to me. I’m not keen on the alternate timeline business (or really, Zack as a character), so I’m wary of

Thanks for the reminder about this game. I remember seeing a trailer for it a few years back and being intrigued by it. Glad it’s made it to release and actually turned out pretty good. I’ll have to check it out.

 I also suffer from decision paralysis, and have quit games in the past because it was too stressful. Three bits of advice from me:

Very much the same. I avoid EGS if I am at all able to do so, and while I loved the original Alan Wake and was looking forward to this one, A) it’s not a must-play for me, and B) the menu of games this fall is sufficient enough that I am not even remotely scraping by for something to play. So ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I guess it’s a

It’s only very rarely that I have ever seen a company have so much antipathy for their player base. I don’t know what the fuck Psyonix is thinking. I mean, I do: “Buy your shit from us, not each other. That way we make more money and you make less :)“ but still.

I am looking forward to quite a few of these - Sonic, Mario, Lords of the Fallen, Alan Wake — but the only one I’m truly pumped for is Ghostrunner. I stumbled upon the first one at PAX East and was absolutely blown away by the gameplay and the soundtrack, and the final game once it released was incredible. One of the

Can’t wait. My first experience with Zero Dawn was on PC with KBM, and while I enjoyed Forbidden West, I really detested playing on controller. Excited to actually be able to aim and do inventory management in this game.

You noticed that too, huh?

I’d definitely be on board for an Oblivion remaster, though idk if it would be enough to change my overall opinion of the game unless it changed some of the core mechanics and added variety to the dungeons. There were so many carbon copy dungeons in Oblivion, it kinda made things boring after a while. And the combat

I recently replayed TR 1-3, and TR 1 and 2 have stood the test of time. TR3 has always been a bit of a black sheep, and I legit hated it lmao. I think if you go into the first two games with an open mind and understand that it’s a 25 year old series so it’s NOT going to be a modernized experience, you can have a good

Yeah, you pick him up in Rocket Town after passing through the Nibel Mountains where you fight the Materia Keeper that is in the slideshow. I suspect Cid and Vincent will both be guest characters a la Red XIII in the last game, so that the devs still have some new playable characters to introduce in part 3.

Not sure how Red XIII on a chocobo didn’t make the list, but it might be the single most amazing thing I’ve ever seen.

They optimized it. Just not very well, especially for people using Nvidia GPUs. And the engine is such an overrburdened creaking ship that the game isn’t going to be able to run well without enough resources to brute force it into submission. I’m not someone who needs 120 fps to be happy — I can get by on the ~30 fps

Yep, this is my biggest disappointment with this game. Nintendo just seems not to understand or care how much the fan base likes Kass. Erasing him (and the Divine Beasts) from existence is just baffling. I was really hoping for *something* Kass-related in a DLC, but I guess he’s just kinda...gone. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
