I think the bigger problem is that the adventure seems to be set up so that the characters are mainlanders (ie. whites from fantasy Europe) only in Chult to kill monsters and plunder treasure. You’re essentially reenacting colonialism. There’s very little in the way of content for people who want to play local heroes…

I would like to remind everyone to keep the comment section free from bigots and trolls who will swarm the section. If you spot a troll in the greys, please do not reply to him. That will only ungrey his comment and draw further attention to his bullshit. Instead, copy links to his comments and post them to the kinja…

One must take into consideration that most of nintendo’s big titles are a lot of memory to take on that little hard drive/SD. It’s better to just buy the physical copy.

my 2 cents.. they are the most reasonable priced gamnes on the eshop.. as someone who is skeptical on buying digital, i will always get big nintendo title in physical form so i can transfer /sell, change account name, and still have the game.. if i were to buy a digital game, it would be the last choice, and for most…

This is the kind of hard hitting reporting I look forward to on the weekend. Thanks, Luke! I’m curious what the other flavors are, since it’s hard to read the print on the cans.

We will when Loot Boxes go away. Until then, nope.

The difference between loot boxes and CCGs is that you typically didn’t pay a $60 entry fee (or any entry fee at all) to gain the privilege to buy packs of cards. Oh, and buying cards is understood up-front as a requirement of the CCG format, whereas loot box systems often get dropped into games in ways that aren’t…

Back in 3.5 I turned a Human Fighter into a magical girl character. The DM’s campaigns always started at level 10, so we had a pretty sizable nest egg to spend on equipment. So I had glamoured armor for her that looked like normal clothes until combat, swords that were brooches until they needed to be swords, and a…

Sneering is allowed but anger isn’t?

What part of “things that used to be part of the game have now been locked behind a gambling paywall” is confusing you? It wasn’t originally “extra” content.

god damn it

You’ve never played a Harvest Moon? Oh man, if you happen to have an old PlayStation I highly recommend Harvest Moon: Back to Nature.

Or if you’re cool with using emulators then you should download them when you have free time. Incredibly fun to get lost in and make a a nice quaint farming empire.

The Topside test is presented (in the linked context) as a measurement for trans literature, rather than a recommendation for all media. It’s working from the sad status quo that some college or graduate courses will pretend they’ve fully addressed “trans lit” by including one work with a trans side character who only…

Interesting questions! The answer is heartening: To pass the Bechdel, or any test directly modeled on it, you need a cast of two. Two women of color, especially if they’re queer or trans, could in fact pass most of these tests without a single other cast member. In the first scene.

First of all, that’s a blatant lie: people with gambling addictions are absolutely drawn to this. It’s literally gambling.

Here’s really all you need to know about it:

Probably the forthcoming Totinos Pizza Loot Roll.
