yeah, I recently finished the 2011 series after stopping at the end of the greed island arc, the whole chiemra ant arc really dragged and could have been cut in half without losing anything of value, it was a bit difficult to push through. if the story is there and engaging, sure, have a long series, there are plenty…

I guess when a series spans years like HxH or One Piece you appreciate the story in a different way than a more concise series like FMA. You focus more on the world and the large roster of characters and get excited for things like callbacks or minor moments of character growth. It’s like watching a drawn out marathon…

I guess it’s all just a matter of personal taste but I’ve never seen an anime that didn’t overstay it’s welcome after about 60 episodes. The best correlation I can find from that to manga is FMA: Brotherhood to FMA the manga, which is 64 episodes to 27 volumes. And I consider FMA to be a really well paced series, you…

It really depends on the organization and how it approaches internal dynamics and leadership. When functional, senior leadership usually focuses more on strategic goals rather than tactical/day-to-day actions. This can vary pretty widely from looking at new markets to compete in, products/services that serve larger…

It pains me to disagree because Persona 3 is one of my favorite games... but it’s aged terribly and is a pain in the ass to play today. It really, *really* needs a remaster with some of the quality of life stuff from the later games added in. The style, the music, the themes, and the story are all great, but the…

Nothing in the genre tops TDU’s replication of Oahu. Not accurate, but totally committed to making you feel like you’re taking a road trip every time you do something. An hour to loop the entire map at 200mph? Buggy as fuck when it was new, but developers should be able to handle all the online gaming aspect nowadays,…

Agreed on the cringe of the cutscenes, but I put a disgusting number of hours into both TDU games just cruising and enjoying the sights. Went on a number of virtual road trips with people online regularly. I'm hoping this new offering will scratch that itch!

My thoughts exactly. Although hey, credit to Apple for making mobile gaming less of a cesspit.

I love seeing any addition to the more casual golf game genre. Between this, Mario Golf, and the english release of Birdie Crush on my phone it’s a good moment for the genre.

Meanwhile I’ll be waiting for a Kamen Rider or Sentai themed cross-over with Genshin Impact, called Henshin Impact.

Still waiting for the Genshin Impact-connected Boy Band.

I totally misread the headline as PlayStation 5 Shortage Upgrades Coming This Summer

This is it. Really sounds like Nathan is stopping himself just short of saying, “People with lots of money are incapable of knowing what it’s like to have little money or of advocating for change, so I wish Mr. Reddit woulda shut up.”

I mean, must be nice to have $1000 to blow on this.

I mean I can’t explain x axis inversion, but I thought y axis inversion or lack thereof was pretty obvious at least in the first person. If you use standard y axis controls, so that pushing forward on a thumb stick or moving a mouse forward shifts the view up, you perceive that movement as moving your eyes. The…

My brain is mixed on it I think. Inverted makes sense for flight games, but nothing else for me. 

You know it’s only for girls cuz it’s pink.

Damn now that’s a sexist headline right there.

I doubt Apple Arcade directly makes money... it just keeps people locked into the Apple ecosystem, so Apple makes money off of the next device you buy.
