Chris Avellone has been involved with writing some of my favorite video game stories (I even have a Planescape: Torment tattoo). It’s really disappointing that he’s a piece of shit.

This is very sweet. What a beautiful dog. I haven’t played Fallout 4, but this almost makes me want to just to hang out with (a fictional version of) River.

Really!? Haley is my favorite by far. I think she’s great.

I read the tone of this article as being somewhat tongue-in-cheek.

Yeah I definitely know a type of person that would fit that and maybe they would not like being called a twink.

Huh, learn something new every day! I didn’t know “twink” was ever considered insulting.

Totally. M4 pt 2 works perfectly in my estimation, for whatever my estimation is worth.

I am glad to read this, I read this article and worried that maybe I was out of step with the rest of the ME community again.

Hah, you know, I love Florence and the Machine, but I was a bit shocked to hear that song when I beat Dragon Age 2. Or I would have been shocked if Origins hadn’t ended with the utterly jarring 30 Seconds to Mars song. That was... weird.

I actually think the song (M4 Part 2 by Faunts, for those curious) works really well. Heck I think it works a lot better than a traditional orchestral song would, considering that the ME soundtrack is less conventional and more electronic so ending on that note would be—in my opinion—far more jarring.

Ooh, yes! This is the kind of content I am here for.

Warlord Okeer (the guy who created Grunt in ME2) is about 1,400 years old, so they are definitely capable of living over a millennium. I believe krogan are potentially the longest lived species in the galaxy, even if on average they probably have shorter lives than the asari.

“For the Legendary Edition, I recreated the first Shepard I played in 2007.”

Is... is this a reference to something specific, or just a “just for fun” kind of article? All the comments seem to be in on the joke and I feel like a fool!

I hope you are right! I would love to have access to more of the older Zelda games on my Switch.

I haven’t played Skyward Sword yet (and I’m not in the habit of getting pissy about others having a good faith opinion), but dang, am I the only one who really loves Zelda 2? I like it better than the first game.

I’m glad that I’ll finally get to play Skyward Sword this summer, in preparation for the sky exploration in BotW 2!

I feel like what they showed was basically nothing at all, but with how long its been since the last trailer, I’m still psyched about it. Really looking forward to playing this game. Really hope that Zelda is playable at least for some portion of it.

That’s not a very good analogy. More accurate to say that some people have more fun hanging out on the sand and collecting seashells--it’s not that they’re scared to enjoy the waves, it’s that the waves aren’t the part they enjoy.

When we were teenagers, that’s how I usually talked to my sisters, when they turned games to the lowest difficulty setting and asked me to beat the really hard bosses for them. I’d do it, but I’d protest every time, explaining that they were having fun wrong and they’d enjoy it more if they challenged themselves.
