I don’t even remember the Choco-Mog festival quest...I think I did it though. Don’t remember the egg. It’s been a while, and I’ve played approximately three or four times more games this year so far than I have the past few years. It’s all starting to blur together.

Right? I hope it’s true just so this might come to light in some last-ditch autobiography.

I both agree and disagree with both you and Cromuliscious.

I’m a little taken aback by how much I’m enjoying the game so far. I’m a fan of the Uncharted series anyway, but I was sure this would feel very spin-off-ish. It’s actually incredibly refreshing not to play as Drake. Glad to be wrong. Sure, it’s a bit more of the same gameplay-wise, but there’s just something about…

Tell me with a straight face that if Robert Lee announced this game, it wouldn’t have made it to Deadspin’s headline. (I mean, even if you do, I won’t believe you, so I’m not even sure what the point of this comment is.)

Subconscious. The only reason that word is correct in this comment is because it auto-corrected. I can never figure out where the S’s and C’s go. Is there an E, or is that the other word? Speaking of the other word, I perpetually mix up conscious and conscience when applying them denotatively, so this isn’ just an…

Maybe if you spent days and days driving a forklift like I did. Otherwise 30 hours is about right. I know it seemed like a lot longer cause I was a kid, too.

I just want to let you know that I didn’t read any of that.

I just think celebrating “exclusivity” is dumb when it’s only console exclusives and doesn’t count PC. I think it’s dumb when Sony does it too, they just have the benefit actually having totally exclusive games, so it seems sillier to me when Microsoft does it.

They might say that in their press releases/advertisements, but Microsoft is pretty liberal with the term “exclusive” otherwise in interviews and at events, even when speaking officially. I can’t tell you how many times I heard how many “exclusives” there were after the Xbox E3 presentation (with no modifier) from…

Two things, which implicitly contradict each other:

The language has always thrown me off. They can make the case that PC should be considered Microsoft, but then to say “This is an Xbox exclusive, but PC doesn’t count because we pretty much own that too” is still not quite right. Like, if I have two brands and they both supply red fidget spinners, can I say “You can…

The Division’s biggest sin is micromanaging the player experience. That’s ultimately what killed it for me. (And I played through the 1.3 patch which basically all but stalled progress.)

I did notice the difference between when I played and the beta (I didn’t play at launch). But yeah I thought helicopters were pretty alright. Not great, but I tend to suck at helicopters regardless of the game.

You’d think in an open world as big as this, they’d give more attention to traversal. Even in cars, one wrong slip means 5 minutes of trying to get your shit together after rolling down a fucking mountain.

You’re a braver person than I.

Would you say it’s more of a “game” game now? (If that makes sense?) It always looked really cool to me, and I love exploration in games, but it always struck me as exploration for the sake of it, with no other elements.

FATAL FRAME OMFG

I’d barely be able to hit a golfball over the fence, let alone a fucking baseball off a fucking bat.
