Interesting, for me it was exactly the other way around. Really tried hard to like the Witcher series, but to me it just doesn’t click.

Jesus man...that’s intense.

You get my star instead. TLOU still has one of the best stories out of most of the games I’ve played in my lifetime.

“Masterpiece”. Got a hearty chuckle out of that.

Let me give you some perspective then - expect some god awful combat. Especially if you’ve played Bloodborne or the Souls games. The Witcher 3 has amazing writing, mind-blowing environmental design, and fantastic quests (even the side quests are engaging), but the combat will frustrate you beyond measure until you get…

This is so far off the mark that I wonder if you’re just trolling. If you are, then - good job! You got me. “Ignorance and dysentery. It was an objectively shitty period of history.” I mean...yeah, you just described The Witcher books and games pretty well there. Ignorance, dysentery, superstition, starvation,…

Uhhhh, self righteous in what way? What did it preach that made it self-righteous?

“I hated Last of Us. Couldn’t even finish it. Such a self-righteous turd production.”

Yeah, no. Don’t be a hater. I’m guessing you hate the ending.

Maybe I’m just confusing “pointing out the obvious” with “addressing a subject I give a damn about in the first place.”

I accept that for a lot of people, Witcher 3 is the game of the year, and I wish the Fallout franchise had made a stronger showing (which is to say, a…

Man, on one hand I want to star you for praising Witcher 3 and recommending the books, on the other I want to go over to your house and slap you across the face for what you said about tLoU.
Guess I’ll just do none of those things. Carry on.

Hated The Last of Us? I don’t even... Granted, post-apocalypse or sci-fi will always win out over Tolkien knock-off fiction for me. You know what the middle ages had going on? Ignorance and dysentery. It was an objectively shitty period of history. Romanticizing it just glorifies the suppression of human…
