Yes. I was in much the same boat, tired of open-world, “stuff on a map” games, and only mildly interested by HZD when it came out. Robot dinosaurs seemed cool, but, you know, meh. Then I received a copy as a gift, gave it a whirl, and... wow. Yes, it’s ‘another open-world game’, but everything’s so well done, it was…

The superlative combat with the robots is worth anything else you don’t like about the game.

If it makes you feel better, it took a lot of learning, then trial and error, then practice before I got to that stage.

I would thoroughly recommend it. There’s filler stuff in the game, but it’s not mandatory, it just means that you won’t get the experience and gear. It also has side quests, but it went more for quality than quantity with those as all of them have clear storylines and characters.

I think you should. The PC version had a pretty rough start in the optimization department but it’s now fully playable assuming you have the minimum hardware for it. What I don’t really like is the controls which feels less intuitive than its PS4/5 counterpart even if you plug in a PS4 controller on your rig. It’s…

This is what the public has the right to know about a celebrity dying:

Will be my first total war game since shogun 2 most likely. But fair play mate

That is a great point. I really wish Nintendo made an effort to make these games available on systems moving forward.

You’re not wrong about some teachers and workers deserving better pay, but pro sports makes billions of dollars. The athletes do all the heavy lifting, but franchise owners take most of the money. The 2021 NFL salary cap is $182.5 million and 95% of it must go to players. I don’t know the logistics of practice squad,…

Voice actors are notoriously underpaid.

Just an FYI, there’s also currently a big negotiation going on right now with the Animation Guild and the AMPTP. Voice actors aren’t part of the Animation Guild BUT more and more folks have been low-key throwing their support behind them. I don’t know if John’s holdout is part of that, but there are other behind the…

Things should be allowed to end.
Futurama had a fine ending.  Time to just let it rest.

I was thinking about it and the Bioshock tv series already kinda exists, and it’s called Snowpiercer.

The fact that they kind of played that off as a joke is high on the long list of things I didn’t like about Cyberpunk 2077.

Reminds me of Konami trying to explain Quiet from MGSV as “a serious story choice but also for cosplay opportunities”

The gameplay doesn’t really matter to me. I’m more interested in this game as a great source of 3D models that I can turn around and print for use in physical Warhammer. Daddy needs himself a Bloodthirster that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.

Wait a minute, wait a minute. You’re saying Indiana Jones: The Video Game: The Movie turned out to be a dud? No way.

*Looks for The Last Duel*
*Remembers The Last Duel didn’t get a single nomination*
*Is sad*

That bad a year for film, I guess.
