He suggests in his AMA that maybe it’s because he started playing around the N64 era when he was really young, and so his hands were too small to hold the controller correctly, spurring a series of habits that led this to feel more natural to him over a decade later. Of course, there were a lot of people who were in a… Read more

I construct all my heds out of Steam tags now Read more

I should add that I know 343 said “no” to the H3 remaster, but, like, maybe they were just being coy? Such a missed opportunity otherwise. Read more

Yea, I think a lot of people are suspect that Microsoft will have much to share at this presser, but at the same time between launching a new console and the lack of first party excitement, it feels like they have some ground to make up. Read more

I doubt it. Potentially at PSX? Or maybe they just go the Nintendo route and do their own sort of “Red Dead Direct” at some point closer to release. Read more

If it was true action, like ps2 and 3 era games, I’d be interested. As long as it’s not awash in waypoints and crafting and collecting tons of game junk like so many open world games are at this point. Not sure why developers became convinced that open world = managing a to-do list. Read more

It’s a real shame, but also funny to see how far we’ve come in recent years from feeling like DLC was sort of corner cutting to something we expect and want from games that require such a long and deep investment. Read more

I was on the fence about seeing them this fall but this album is just too good. Hillside especially is just such a funky and different sound for them and I love it. Read more

Ship lore is one of the most underappreciated lore imo Read more

Agreed! In the end I’m not even sure I think Liquid was the “best” team at this TI, but I think they were undoubtedly one of the most interesting to watch and responsible for some of the best moments of Dota to be watching as a spectator. Read more

Definitely not. Unless you just absolutely gotta have more Pokémon in your life and have already beaten all the other games. I’ll probably just use the release as inspiration for going back and finally completing Moon. I’ve dug the last few releases but just can’t seem to power through to the end. I’m fine with the… Read more

I blame the lack of coffee Read more

I’m in the same boat. I’d love to give it a try on Switch but for the port of Cave Story which comes in a lovely little case with a booklet is currently the same price. Read more

Wow now that’s a lot of comments. And here I thought some late Saturday evening opining on the granular differences between FFXII and the remaster would bore people to tears and be quickly passed over. Read more

You’re not wrong Read more
