I feel the exact same way. I was super into Final Fantasy Brave Exvius for about a year after it launched. I had a ton of fun playing it, and only spent about $20 on it. But I recognized I was developing some problematic behaviors with how much I was playing it. I managed to stop it just about cold turkey. Now, none…

In the past, they kind of treated the name of James Bond itself as a code name and used it as a way to explain why different people played the same character over such a long time. I don't think it was ever confirmed, just treated as a hand waving, enjoy the movie kind of logic. They did the same thing with Ralph…

There is a limit here too, both natural and artificial. Natural, from the match clock, and artificial from the size of the arena.

Professional athletes and coaches are lauded for their ability to manage the clock. Read any Funbag article for prime examples of people blowing it. Spectators don't really suffer as it makes up a very small aspect of the overall match, and is yet another layer of competition.

The point is is that its already done in basketball and football, and it is lauded as good clock management.

For those who rail against turtling, I wonder what their opinion is on running out the clock in football or basketball is.

I ran into this over the weekend, people parroting the phrase “we’ll see what happens”. Its so frustrating. Not only are they using it as a way to shutdown conversations about a variety of topics (we were discussing trees that had been cut down on part of a highway and local development projects), but it also sent the…

People only really want the original PS1 version of Final Fantasy 7 with current gen graphics. Square Enix is not putting that product out, and they are dedicating far too much money and assets to a project that will disappoint consumers, hurt their reputation, and leave them in a precarious financial position.

“If you’ve enjoyed recent episodes of “The President of the United States Being Personally Involved in Negotiating Things Like the Price of New Air Force One Planes, While the World Burns,” you’ll love the way our oafish narcissist-in-chief, lacking all economic perspective but full of unearned confidence, grows…

I at least understood Breath of the Wild for going the route it did. The Zelda games have always acknowledged Link having some kind of input, and BotW had Link pantomime speech and characters responding as if he did speak. 

I agree with you except about Corpse Run. In DQ11, it comes across as everyone talking around and for you. It doesnt make sense and took me out of the flow of the story. They didnt even try to come up with a narrative reason for being silent.

Mixed Up Mother Goose is the game im thinking off.

I hope the goldbergs hang around for a final season.

A lot of this weekend is up in the air. I may be either going out of town or be working on some garden beds for my wife. What I really want to do is to spend it playing video games. I’ve been playing Enter the Gungeon a lot this week. After getting the first shortcut, I can reliably get from the first floor to the…

One more drink to ease the pain.

How dare you. Donj has posted many pictures to Instagram of him picking up heavy objects and then placing them back on the ground. Is the definition of beefy and strength not but ones ability to deny the laws of physics? And I mean real physics, not that fancy nerd math. Donj clearly displays the beefiness, strength,…

We're counting on you, Commander.

If you have amazon prime, you can get a free year sub through twitch.

Is there some announcement about SNES games Ethan? I know that there was the data found for the SNES entries in the switch online menu, but nothing beyond that.
