Last night I 90%(?) the Corel Region after realizing I couldn’t 100% that area until later in the game after Chapter 12, reached Gongoga and immediately was excited about the maze like open world, the jungle, and the music. Then I saw your headline and read your article and now I’m nervous because I similarly get…

It’s a wide net for sure, but its not as narrow as the healing materia list or grouping all the ones that just give you magic or ATB command attacks.

With a staff, so it hurts more.

Neat. I’ll add this game to my backlog then and pickup the complete edition in 10 years when it’s discounted to $4.99 on some random site like GamesLOAD.com

It doesn’t, really. It’s a problem with U.S. anti-trust law. Rather than go with a structuralist approach, as in, how many major companies are in the specific market, what’s the size of the companies looking to merge, what’s the level of consolidation, etc., and the recognition that, historically, consolidation is not…

oh yeah, I got you covered:

This is explicitly told to you in the game, I’m surprised you missed it!

Starting to think people who hate this show just hate joy.

Don’t you mean it’s rather lockpicky?

I suppose we see what we want to see. I still feel like she was a badass and that what they have been doing is trying to up the level of fear felt for the infected over certain scenes in the show (both Joel and Tess seem MUCH more apprehensive about running into infected than in the game). The way she handled herself…

Where in the PlayStation games she was a confident, dynamic character, HBO makes Tess an example

I liked TLOU1 but was never blown away by the story. But the new show seems even better-- it’s staying true to the source material but also expanding in all the right ways. It literally feels like an upgrade.
