Is the combat music good, this time?

It’s very impressive! Nice.

It makes you wonder, though... let’s imagine that Overwatch didn’t come out yet, and some other game started the trend, and the controversy happened. If Overwatch was to be released post-loot box controversy, would Blizzard keep the loot box system? Would they change it? If so, for what?

The layout is fairly similar to the apartment I was living in when I stayed in Japan. While small, ours was considerably bigger than this, though (about twice the size, I think).

Interesting fact: scarification only works on black people. If you’re white and you think “hey, this is cool. Can I mark my body this way too?”, forget about it, it doesn’t work.

...and the writing. I mean... it’s absolutely appalling.

OK, I need to bring up the Bayonetta 2 subject.
When the game came out on WiiU, it had incredible reviews on many websites, like it was the most amazing thing since creation itself. So, of course, now that it’s out on a console worth having, I gave it a shot, and... I really don’t see what all the fuss is about?

With a bit of luck, you will end up sniped in mid-air as you fall to your death, like that guy in today’s Highlight Reel.

So.... real-life loot boxes, basically. But it’s OK, because it’s Nintendo themed :-D

I’m the same age ;-)

I’d do this next time I go to Japan if there had a Super Sentai option :-D

I hope they’re not expecting to rely on user reviews to put a bit of order in the eshop where currently everything is being thrown in all together with barely any sorting, classifying or categories. At the rate at which things are being released (well, mostly ported...) on the Switch, this is going to be mega messy

Meeting at Square Enix:

By adding a label to just about everything, it will be completely counter-productive: it will be on every box so nobody’s going to pay attention to it.

They could have have left season passes and additional content out, and just kept the label for things you can buy with real money, loot boxes or not...

I don’t know if I’d call it disappointing, but it’s true that aside from Zelda and Mario which are great (particularly Zelda), I haven’t used the console for much. it currently gets a little bit more use thanks to Bayonetta 2, which is alright, but not particularly memorable so far...

I didn’t get the Starship Troopers thing, here....

It’s completely ridiculous, almost as ridiculous as there being three different pre-order incentives for Steam (a fashion pack), Origin (a decal pack) and Windows 10 (a sword and some potions).

Oh, that picture again...
