Correct.

The sad thing is that I’d actually sign up for Overwatch if there was single-player, offline content. League of Legends has been trying pretty hard to bring that universe to other kinds of players/viewers, and I appreciate that. Arcane and Ruined King have let me play around in that franchise. It’s strange, by…

The Babadook: a movie that’s really good until it’s not anymore.

I thought of this too. You get those girls up to a high enough level, though, and you can go into any given mission and slaughter everything in about 30 seconds. 

I was under the impression that Discovery took place in the past, during the (or replacing) original series. It’s actually set in the future?

For fuckin’ real! How is is Super Mario Land not on NSO yet? I’m also amazed that DK ‘94 isn’t there yet either. Guess I’ll dust off my 3DS to play them...

I’ll likely play the demo, but my love of Vanillaware comes by way of their action games—Odin Sphere, Muramasa, and Dragon’s Crown. I’m a little saddened that 13 Sentinels and now Unicorn Overlord are heading in a different direction.

I remember seeing that original pitch video of the Switch and thinking “oh my god this is what I’ve always wanted” and guess what? It was everything I ever wanted.

This is legit my favorite open-world game. Just a mind-boggling story, incredible robot designs, and delicious combat. I, too, was incentivized to get through every collectable and questline. I think I sank over 120 hours into the original game. I’d logged well over that amount into its sequel because I like upgrading…

In this age of live-service games launching in Early Access form, I’m reluctant to completely dismiss any live-service game from the word go (recent exception: Suicide Squad) but the publisher has to be committed to heavy support. That’s the only reason Sea of Thieves and Destiny 2 became the powerhouses they did.

There’s a reason Ubi kept putting this off.

Weird, a game nobody asked for with a steady drip of troubling news stories about live-service bullshit forced into what might’ve been a fun game by out-of-touch publishers trying to chase Destiny 2 wasn’t massively successful.

NWR’s John Rairdin gives a nice summary of some questionable design decisions in the “remaster” portion of this game:

I just bought the fucking thing, are you kidding me?

I swear to god if the big reveal is a pile of barrels leaking pollutants into the ground water, I will swear off this series entirely. I will refer to it as a one-season show, just like there were only two Alien movies and then they stopped making Alien movies.

Yes, it’s not a JJ show, it’s a Lindelof show, and it was the most frustrating television series I’ve ever seen through to the end.

The Tuttle connection really does seem completely superfluous.

I’ve noticed this too. Ennis seems to be shorthand for the North Slope but without the established infrastructure of the actual North Slope. I’ve been amazed that Ennis has half the things it does. A very modern mining home office, an addiction treatment center (?!?), a shockingly modern-looking police HQ. It’s like…

Oh right, I think that’s it.

I recently rewatched Twister on Prime (?) and was surprised to see how well it held up.
