My personal opinion is that DA:O is an average game done very well and DA:II is a brilliant game done awfully. Not sure what I'd say DA:I is, but totally agreed on how DAII's very, very interesting and tried some new things that nobody liked.

Probably Journey since I haven't played it yet and it was one of the PS Plus games (say what you want about PS+, but I have gotten my money's worth).

I doubt Dragon Age will go in that direction - because people hated DAII for precisely those reasons -, but it's such a weird, unpredictable series in general.

Oh, well, I don't care about Power Armor.

Ha, that's just because you don't work for the government in Argentina where new rooms are 'added' at will and with no rhyme nor reason.

Leaving aside the skeletons, I like how sometimes how a place is fortified can also tell you a little story.

I love the FO4 Teddy Bears so so much.

And monetizing those kinds of frequent visitors by advertising is hard (as opposed to a subscription/premium features model, whichrelies on the assumption people will want to pay for your content).

Yes, I do! You should read Mafalda, then. :) There's plenty of Argentinian comics around.

Eh, a lot of people don't like 100 Years of Solitude and García Marquéz, in Latin Americam academia, isn't as well-respected as other authors (because he sells).

Oh, I still don't watch Holocaust movies because I kinda work in the same area as her. I deal all day with human rights violations; if something I watch/read is going to feature them, at least they should be about mages.

Oh, this is a very long-shot in terms of them being available, but if you like children's literature, María Elena Walsh and Javier Villafañe are great classics that influenced several generations of Argentinian children's writers (which in Argentina is Serious Literature).

I'm more surprised by somebody not realizing what García Marquéz is doing with the literary device, really. Uh, magical realism was named by Latin American writers who had very strong reasons to use it, which they have explained at lenght.

Well, it's good to read Borges outside of 'Fictions', like The Aleph, which have his least fantastic work. I'm Argentinian, though, so this is gonna be biased and heavy on canonical works.

The standard comparison to Tolkien - and the association of HP to the YA phenomenon - has really hurt Rowling, because her work stands far more easily alongside Dahl's or Ende's.

Plus, in the literary genre - children's literature! - she's playing in, haphazard worldbuilding predicated on puns is an institution.

Not only that, South American fantasy - which isn't the same as South American magical realism - is incredibly non-bothered by worldbuilding (because it's concerned with how the fantastic invades 'normal' life). It's hard to care about whether or not the magic system makes sense when Borges and Cortazar and Ocampo are…

I'd really like a book about sci-fi archaelogists desperately searching for the famed 'Codec' that'd let their machines understand our media.

the inherently obnoxious masturbatory qualities of magical realism

I honestly just hate the movie because, when it came out, my mother - for professional reasons (memory/history is her academic focus) - was on a roll of renting Holocaust movie after Holocaust movie.
