There have been a number of entries in the monster collector/battler genre in recent years, including some that use the -mon suffix. Nexomon and Coromon come to mind, and most recently Cassette Beasts (which you should really check out if you want a different spin on the genre). Palmon is probably in the clear.

As someone who has played Skyrim and Fallout 4, and is also a Trekkie, I’ve had fun with Starfield, flawed as it is. However, I feel like I should add that I never really liked Skyrim or Fallout 4 very much. I’m not sure why, but Starfield clicked for me in a way that those two games never did. I find myself wanting…

“Added the ability to adjust HDR Brightness provided that the system supports it. (Xbox & Windows 11 only).”

God damn finally. Nothing like not being able to see where you’re going because the planet you’re on is apparently made of fucking mirrors. This should’ve been in the game at launch.

The scalping or the van Gogh/Pokemon cross promotion itself? The scalping, I agree. It’s shitty behavior from people looking to make a quick buck, and I hope it blows up in their faces.

Even if they decide to completely scrap this inane idea, they’re screwed. Who would ever trust them after this?

Seriously, this was by far the stupidest decision they made with Starfield. Most planets are procedurally generated, with a set list of pre-made assets to use and re-use (I’ve come across the same abandoned mine on two separate planets). What the hell is there for us to slow down and experience? Give us a damn rover…

I’m sure there’s some tricky territory that Bethesda devs need to navigate, so they don’t get accused of just copying/stealing a modder’s work. But regardless, they really need to start looking at the popular improvements that people are making to their games and learning from them for the future. This is just getting…

Personally, I prefer women protagonists these days. I just find it more interesting, as they’re often given deeper characterization than the dime-a-dozen stoic men protagonists. Plus, I play games to not be me. A woman is about as far from me as I can get.

And why is the carpet all wet, TODD?

I would guess it has less to do with BD-1 and more with ND-5, the commando droid in the trench coat. They might’ve decided that having more than one droid sidekick would be confusing to some people. Or maybe they were trying to make something unique that they could merchandise the hell out of, because I would…

Greez: What would you do if you had a million credits?

Cal: I’ll tell you what I’d do, man: two chicks at the same time, man.

It seems to be the Ross class, from the Legendary Galaxy. It’s definitely not the Venture, the back of the neck would be more filled out and the saucer shuttle bays don’t have the raised bits around them

It was definitely nice to see quite a few STO ships be made officially canon thanks to Picard, especially the Enterprise-F Odyssey class. I know in the show it was decommissioned, but it’s still the flagship and Starfleet’s main capital ship in the game

Woah now, Star Trek Online is hardly on its last legs. Yes, it hasn’t had a huge expansion in a while, and the devs have confirmed that expansions are pretty much off the table at this point. But it’s still getting regular updates that add new story content and gear (though they’re far too infrequent for my tastes).…

It’s from the same woman who did MGDMT? Fucking sold! Every Magikarp I catch in Pokemon is named Mr. Fish because of that comic.

They have, sort of. In space, if you got a high enough wanted level, they’ll spawn a Sentinel capital ship. But until now, all you could do with it was destroy its gun turrets and cargo pods. Then it would just sit there, while more Sentinel fighters spawned in. It looks like you can actually destroy it now. And…

If it’s as mod-friendly as they’re making it out to be, then I would expect someone to make some high-res texture packs to make it look better. But yeah, visually, it doesn’t look great in this trailer

This is a Paradox game, so it’s probably going to have DLC out the wazoo worse than Sims 4 does. Go check out the Steam pages for Cities Skylines, Stellaris, or any of their other games. You’ll find DLC after DLC.

Pretty sure it was an ironic statement in reference to time Rosanne Barr tried to claim her racist behavior was a result of being jacked up on Ambien

Oh damn, Lamplighter’s League looks right up my alley. Can’t wait to get my hands on that one.
