Fun trivia: Ben “Yahtzee” Crowshaw actually wrote a script for DNF. 3D Realms apparently liked it, but passed on it.

Saints Row 2 and 4 have some great comedy writing. SR3 is a bit hit or miss, but it’s got some nice beats that play well. The spin-off/reboot Agents of Mayhem had some nice comedy moments mixed into the general Saturday Morning Cartoon flavor. That said, AoM had, probably, the best example of why Volition’s jokes…

Because it’s technically an independent microstate.

Millennium was shockingly good. The first and second season hold up remarkably well, which is pretty impressive because of how tied to pre-millennial anxiety. The third season’s more overt supernatural content turned it into a messier version of The X-Files, but, still, surprisingly good TV.

Could have sworn there were 13 episodes. Though most of those were unaired until SciFi picked up the rights years later.

Yeah, except for the entire tier system, which is a hot mess, and expeditions which were, legitimately, kinda cool.

New Dawn was a pretty serious departure for Far Cry, and not for the better. It introduced an entire weapon tier system that just didn’t work.

Dude was broadcasting in a public stream. He doesn’t know who’s watching. It’s public, not just friends and close acquaintances.

I dug this out a couple months ago on Steam. Still love it, but, man the PC port was a mess. I’d forgotten that I played through most of it on 360 just to avoid the PC port.

So, this snippet system really needs to be reevaluated. When even the short ones cut off in the mi

Soft cap is now 900. Hard cap is, I think 960. So, no, there is progression.

Probably not. If you did the Thunderlord quest, when it was available, you’ve seen the Cosmodrome map.

Forsaken’s story is also gated, not sure exactly how. But, that’s also decent content.
