I grew up reading western fantasy, and I absolutely fucking OD’d on it. To a point where I didn’t read *any* fantasy for like 5 years; just read hoighty toighty “real novels” and non-fiction history or science books. Just throwing that out there so that you believe me when I say that The Witcher’s world, and its…

I have never been so upset at myself for becoming so bored, so quickly, with a game than I have with Indivisible. Its odd, cause I found my first actual waifu in in the same game: Razmi. Black marks to the sense of progression, feeling of combat, and the platforming. ... Y’all, if you’re gonna have tight platforming,…

You’re right, but not in the way you’re intending. The problem with blackface, and why its so hard to “pull off” as it were, is that your intentions do not matter. If you’re painting your face black you are inadvertently recreating the old minstrel shows, regardless of your intent. Now, you CAN do it, if you lampshade…

Its that fucking overworld theme. Over and over and over and over. Maybe the battle theme doesn’t grate on me so badly cause I already went and turned the music down to 0 (which sucks, cause certain specific event pieces are still good) and I use spotify to curate my own soundtrack. But by the time I reached the 4th…

Ive tried to get into this game twice now, both on friends and reviewers recommendations. They arent lying when they say it is gorgeous, and the story, even early on, is engaging and a return to 5-10 level of storytelling (i like 12 too, chill). But be very forewarned, no one has accurately described the grind of the…

Nah, you wont see anything on BG&E2 until its release year now. They had trailers, twists, and gameplay to prove it and hype it. Now theyll sit on it until its ready.

First off, the site *totally* knew he was speaking out his ass when he said he was unaware of the “political climate”. I mean, just using that phrase implies that he isnt wrong so much as the group think wont let him express his better opinions without backlash. Anyway, they knew he was lying cause they suspended him…

This is a puff piece and a half. Sorry bud, i know they withold access but i want my games reporting to not be an advertising arm. Thisll be my last click through.

Saw some of the gamergate style folks and outlets blowing up about this this morning and i kinda assumed it was blown out of proportion. I mean, they get triggered about anything they view as an attack on their lifestyle. This is the first good article ive seen, holy shit... like, twitch would ban the channel for this…

That dude is channeling every expression Craig Robinson ever had on the Office.

I’m not going to try any of this until they get it figured out but I’m not sure I want a passive mode or a PvP/PvE division. My immersion actually wants there to be criminals and bounty hunters, and for Rockstar to implement a quest tracker for both. Maybe even a way to become a lawman. What I would want is a griefer…

Fuck, if no one else says it i will. Thanks for an incredibly engaging breakdown.

The entire time I’m thinking, “Oh man, its been in development long enough to get released during its trailer.” “2019" “Fuck.”

Whelp, this is gonna be a shit show. Damn, just cause gamergaters and alt right cant have a nuanced, humanizing view of history doesnt mean the rest of us cant. Be wary of turning into the very folks you hate.

Hey, quickly scrolled through the text to get to the replies. Could you please not spoil stuff from the game in the headers? Yeah yeah, i know ass creed is gonna have alien techy stuff but its how its presented that is always the fun part. Thanks.

First i read the name of the power and its description and kinda rolled my eyes. Last thing folks who scream ”SJW” as some limp insult need is an actual nontroversy. Then i got to the card text and literally laughed out loud. Holy shit, how do you not catch that? I feel bad for whomever came up with that combo, they…

Holy hell, I had no idea this was happening. AND its by the Kong: Skull Island director?! That is seriously one of my fav movies of that year. If you slice out the Vietnam war half of it (and jettison the romance movie half) it becomes one of my top 10 ever.

Eh, she has a very valid point and its one i not only share but one id like to see echoed in our community. She also did exactly what you said and its my biggest (only?) gripe with her editorial. She totally, and intentionally, misrepresented the bad guy/good guy loop to take a swipe at strawmen the game didnt have.…

You’re kind of missing one of the key elements of this story; the dude killed exactly 3712 people with his sword when he was a soldier. The Rape of Nanking happened in December of 1937. The author was pulling one of those annoying hidden messages/imagery things so popular with racist folks: See also 1488 and that…

If you enjoyed all three of those, and the genre subversions they deal in, give abercrombie a try again. I bounced off the first, badly written chapter of the blade itself trilogy quite a few times. Ive had too many folks who know what i like tell me i didnt give it enough of a shot that i forced my way through, read…
