I made this one last night as well. Ew. Also, sweet.

Ha, I'd say in this case it was less about being excited to be doing the interview and more about trying to have a coherent conversation over the phone with PR listening in, getting in all your questions, keeping notes, keeping track of the thread, etc. You've only go so much time, have this many questions, and want Read more

I'm inclined to agree, at least that it seems like matchmaking could easily work for the raid and I don't really get why it would be a unique challenge. I should have followed that question up. Though I guess there is room for some sort of technical consideration we haven't taken into account, like making sure Read more

Hah, yeah, I got the speeder the first time through. I love it to death, often literally. Read more

Hah, yeah, I stopped using mine just this past week. I do sort of hate them now. Read more

Here are the drops we got the last time we beat Atheon.

True, true. Though they are NIGH unkillable. I'll change that "immediately" to "almost immediately," since yeah, you can kill them if you react quickly. Read more

I'm guessing I'm not the only one who found the second half of this video to be unexpectedly moving.... Read more

We didn't actually - that was before we started regularly doing tips articles. We should've! It's probably not worth doing one now (there are tons of good tips collections on the internet and too many new games to deal with), but if this game came out today, we'd definitely do one.

It really is good, isn't it? Reading your review made me want to stick with my inertia on PC and replay the entire thing. I'll probably run out of gas at some point, but... yeah, a really cool game that I've only grown fonder of over time. Read more

Thanks, I appreciate that. And I mean, I get it - people casually throw around that kind of language in comments sections all the time. It just irks me, is all. For me to take money in exchange for positive coverage would be a colossal betrayal of everyone who reads and trusts me. It's not something to be taken Read more

Good Lord with the "are they paying you" business. No, "they" are not paying me. Read more

I'll just chime in to say that this show is so, so good. All y'all - watch it. It's bananas.

Ha. Cut me some slack, I traded them after finishing for raid gauntlets and a Light Beyond Nemesis. Read more

My favorite part of last night was right after you and I defeated Diablo. We'd beaten the final boss, "won" the game, and were standing around his corpse checking out all the loot we'd gotten. And then...your nemesis randomly turned up, walked straight through all the celebrating NPCs, and killed you. Hilarious. Read more
