Hmm. Cool. Okay I will buy this thing.

So, they only start caring when it affects their money, and not when it affects their workers.

Yeah. Just ignore the texts. Mute the phone.

Yeah. As a cop you can’t even ask for help because then you’re declared “unfit for duty”. The machismo culture doesn’t allow any showing of weakness, which is why cop suicides are up. Any culture like the military, or policing, or MMA, or videogames, where aggression is valorized often results in only anger being the…

It’s not exactly reasonable to expect someone to find this. “I created a 15-step puzzle that no one would — through the course of normal play — ever be expected to find and even though they had 9 freaking years to do so EVERYONE WAS TOO STUPID TO FIGURE IT OUT!!! HAHAHA!!! Losers!”

Hmm. Good to know. Thanks!

Killing her off in a childbirth scene because he was pissed off she got pregnant without asking his permission is very on the nose.

Back in 1987, a little girl named Jessica McClure fell into a tiny well and was stuck there for 3 days while all of America watched. They had to drill a parallel hole to the well, and tunnel over. Two men went down the hole and brought her up. They were heroes and friends and colleagues for a long time. And then…

Oh god that was so pleasing. I love that they found an actual setting that brought back all those memories.

Articles like these is why I keep coming here. Thank you! I can’t keep up with all of the gaming universe’s gems. It’s all I can do to keep up with the AAA titles. This is very helpful.

Good to know. Thanks. It’s funny - I’d been waiting for years for this game. This whole pandemic, I’d been really depressed. Like everyone, I suppose. And one of the hopeful lights for me was this game. Knowing that it was coming out. It kept me alive. But then hearing about the delay, and about how last-gen consoles…

They did this last time too. Crackdown 3 was supposed to be a launch title. I can’t trust them anymore. You buy an Xbox and they will give you something in its final year before the new Xbox comes out. They have that infinite microsoft money and they impoverish their console. Sickens me.

Well shit. I might have to get this now. And just when I thought Ubi was just a sequel studio now.

It’s so weird how we went through the EA era. And then the Activision era. And now it’s the IOI era. It’s like 3 musicians all doing their own covers of the Beatles playlist or something, all trying to play to their own strengths.

007. Year One. I like it.

Do not want. Or rather - want, but do not want to want.

Me too. Everyone talks about the gameplay of the Souls games, but one of the underrated aspects is the worldbuilding and the bonkers aspect of the world they created. You literally cannot predict what’s around the next corner. Sometimes it’s a swamp, and it will have the weirdest enemy types you’ve ever encountered.…

This sounds like the most likely explanation. Maybe in their contracts they have to make a good faith effort to put the con on. It’s difficult to know what the terms are, but they need a public declaration of a pandemic or national emergency or something so they can get their deposit back, or get out without having to…

I’m about five hours in right now. For me, the issue was that TLOU2 patch came out with all the fun cheats, so I replayed the campaign again because the gameplay was so good. Then I finally got started with Tsushima, which was a revelation. Instant classic and the start of a new franchise I am sure. And now I get to…

I think she’ll continue to change the worlds she’s created because she doesn’t see herself as hateful. I read that long essay she wrote a little while ago, and I thought it was quite nuanced and thoughtful, but came to some problematic conclusions. She sees herself as protecting women. She sees herself as a feminist.…
