I only knew to correct you because I spent a good 10 minutes staring at the pair myself before I figured it out. So no worries!

The Director's Cut is the Enhanced Edition for The Witcher 1. The Witcher 1+2 are sold separately.

I don't think the relatively recent military conquests of a defeated country whose invasions included some of history's worst war crimes can really ever be described as 'earned', honestly.

Besides, the spirit of the surrender documents certainly was that they were to give up all imperial ambitions and return to their…

You've made a case - the same case the Japanese have made. But it's not black and white simply because you have a case at all. It would be if you didn't have one. The other side, that the islands are traditionally held to be in the Taiwanese island groupings, that what few settlements have existed over the years have…

Korea was annexed by the Japanese in 1910, so we're not just talking about the connected conflicts of the 1930s. We're talking way back to the Russo-Japanese War and even the period preceding that. The era of Japan's Imperial ambitions.

You seem to not actually know much about the treaties of surrender and…

I listed two good 'uns, so I'm going to assume your request for 'some thing good' is not in good faith, and leave the discussion here.

If you insist! I'm sure your in-depth knowledge on the back of playing dozens of Chinese-made games has brought you to this conclusion.

But seriously, the Chinese games industry has been in a terrible state for years. Consider, however, that this is in a country where a very small percentage have home consoles and…

There're definitely more and more Chinese games catching my eye these days. Hopefully we'll see that turn into an interesting development scene (and hopefully doesn't just turn into an MMO machine like Korea's!), given that China's already the world's biggest games market.

Good job with the guide! I suppose import…

Korea was taken before WW2 as well. As was much of China. Are you suggesting Japan should keep those too?

And it's not really about what you personally think. Your opinions do not make for solid facts that would make any one name usage 'correct'. The Pinnacle Islands occupy a legal grey zone, and countries with stakes…

If there was no argument about them belonging to Japan there wouldn't be an unsolvable island dispute...

Japan conquered a lot of crap in that period - are we to say that Taiwan and most of China and South East Asia are also Japan's belongings? There's a fair argument for all three sides in the dispute. That's why…

Yeah, I didn't mean to point fingers at you or any particular writer - one writer deciding to call them the Pinnacle Islands again wouldn't change much, as they'd have to repeatedly clarify the other names so people knew what they were talking about. I'm more lamenting that the name didn't catch on in general, so that…

"Correct" if you were speaking Japanese, yes. Just like Diaoyu or Diaoyutai would be if you were speaking Chinese. I just feel like to give proper neutral coverage (and avoid having to use both terms at once every time to achieve the same effect), we should use the extant English language name for the islands when…

I wish the English-speaking media would call these the Pinnacle Islands. It's a name in our language for them that means journalists don't have to pick sides by either calling them Diaoyu or Senkaku (or having to say both names every time to avoid doing so). A real pity it hasn't caught on!

That's an extremely flawed understanding of the situation. They grabbed a lot of stuff in their Imperialist expansion phase, while setting up their co-prosperity sphere. They lost WW2 and were made to give them back. There was no mention on whether they should keep or give back those islands, and so they've been…

I get what you mean, and with a lot of shows I do prefer to session them all at once. Downside to that is getting exhausted with too much all at once, and so losing interest through fatigue.

Upside to watching them once a week, of course, is getting to discuss them every week with friends who also watch the show,…

I think I kinda misread your post and confused it with some others I'd read here... my bad for the needlessly aggressive tone. Sorry!

That's something I have to weigh up, but mostly it comes down to how keen I am to play the game in the first place. Honestly, the price isn't much of an issue - if you waited a year for…

Did you not buy WC3 until the BattleChest with The Frozen Throne was out? Would you never buy a WoW expansion until the next expansion is out, because they continually add content to it?

Additional content does not by nature make the original experience 'incomplete'. It's additional on top of the original whole.

Of…

Yeah, agreed. I probably would've rendered it Happy Happy Sheep (and then each of the sheep are called their adjective twice, in a childish repetitive way) and Bad Big Wolf (to play on 'Big Bad Wolf' but make him sound as incompetent and silly as he is in the show). At least, that's off the top of my head at any rate.…

Pssst. The word "misinformed" isn't relevant when the person in question is fully informed, but arrived at a different conclusion to you. May I propose "misguided"?

In all seriousness, I've watched untold hours of that stuff. It's... just not a good show. In any shape or form. I could reel off better kids' shows from…

Yeah, didn't mean to suggest that you'd come up with that translation yourself! Though I suppose it may have seemed that way to people not aware that it's the official name. I probably should've mentioned that...

And yeah, I spent a semester in Beijing with the TV in my apartment permanently tuned to Kaku, so I got a…
