Aw man. I agree they needed to do something to shake things up - I haven’t even finished Kiwami 2, because after already playing through a bunch of these games (I missed the first couple so I’ve sort of jumped around order-wise a bit), I was mostly in it for the story but eventually grew tired of the sameness - but…

If Rockstar made this it would take 100 people 18 months. Considering it’s taken them several months to figure out how to effectively add already-existing single player mechanics to the online game. (The bounty hunter/collector/trader “roles” in the summer update, for those unfamiliar.) And even that hasn’t been…

Not sure yet how into it I am, but I will say, if I do end up playing this it looks like it’ll be Cap & Black Widow for me. Definitely.

Oh gotcha. Yeah, I wouldn’t either. I am curious to see how the character editor turns out though. Hopefully we can edit what we have and it’s not a full appearance reset. I like the way my dude is now, but I wouldn’t mind making some small tweaks to his eyes and nose. When he’s tired, he looks a lot like Arthur…

haha, yeah that’s true. You end up doing an impression of yourself (although I wouldn’t go as far to say THS is at the point of self-parody, there’s too much good stuff in there, especially in the singles, to say that).

Sure thing. I mean, I do hope you enjoy the whole thing (I never hope someone has a bad experience with something), I just think I was a little bummed leaving these comments because I’m a big fan of THS and this always happens when your favorite band releases a record you’re not big on. It’s not that I despise it, or…

Well hopefully the summer update is coming sooner rather than later. I think they did a nice set up with the getting out of jail, restarting your life aspect, I just wish there was more going on with that besides the missions. We really have to create our own head canon, which is cool and all, but so far I’m just a…

Yeah, fingers crossed for tomorrow but who the hell knows at this point.

Yeah, Online isn’t usually my thing either, but after so, so many hours in single player - once through the whole game, and however many hours playing a second time through till Chapter 3 (but not doing the first Dutch mission, so I can still use guns in Rhodes) and then sticking to free-roam, I decided to make the…

I consider more and more going that route. I bought a MicroSD card but it still got filled up damn quick.

I somehow got sucked back into Red Dead Online. Like, it’s not even that great, it’s just okay (online, that is; I think single player is incredible). But I kind of love it anyway. I think it’s just the world itself, riding around on a horse, having only rudimentary weapons (compared modern shooters, at least), having…

I have the same issue. Toughest part is, if a game is huge, I don’t want to delete it because that means redownloading that massive file later (also, my most-played games tend to have the biggest download sizes). On the flip side, if a game has a small file size, I’m like “why delete it, that barely makes a dent in…

Denver Haircut and Entitlement Crew are definitely two of the best songs on the album. Confusion in the Marketplace is also great, but I’m not big on the rest. I’d recommend looking into their singles that don’t appear on the record (over the past year or so they’ve released 9, 5 of which make up the last 5 songs of…

Stay Positive is a weird one for me - the best songs on that record are among THS’s best, but the worst songs on that record are among their worst. Although I do love that they went deeper into Sapphire and the clairvoyance angle here.

I’ve only listened to the new tracks once, but I think this is more like a C- for me. Out of the 9 singles they released previously (5 of which make up the last half of the album), 3 of the ones that made the record were my least favorite of the bunch, and the the 4 that they left off I think are better than any of…

90 minutes! Are there breaks in there? Because I pity poor bastard who gets a Delta error 85 minutes in. Roosevelt Island didn’t even take me that long to solo.

My issue wasn’t the repetitiveness of the gameplay, but the stiffness of it. The animations of the characters and the responsiveness of the controls are at weird odds with each other. The fastness of what happens on screen make it seem like button prompts should have one type of timing (swift and smooth), but then the…

How far away was your medium sized TV? The Switch screen might be small, but that’s offset by the fact that it’s right there in front of you.

‘Inscrutable’ is definitely a good descriptor for that trailer. Sheesh. I loved the graphic novel and for all its flaws, still really enjoyed the Watchmen movie (if they had taken the movie and just made a mini-series or a show out of that, I think it’d have gone a lot better - the casting and aesthetics were…

It’s definitely my favorite console. It doesn’t have the power to run some bigger AAA titles (I have a PS4 for those), but it scratches a gaming itch/idea that I haven’t had since I was a kid - video games are toys that are meant to be played with. I got away from that concept as I got older, but now as I get even…
