I'm personally fine with this, but I think GW wouldn't dare stir the hornet's nest and the people wanting female SMs and whatever will definitely not shut up about it. I'm not against inclusivity and representation, but at the same time there's a time and place for it. Part of the fun of 40k...

Were the Custodes intended to the be next step of humanity? I think maybe they set a standard to aspire to, but they themselves lacked a lot of things that the Emperor would've wanted. First of all they are still artificial transhumans incapable of sexual reproduction. If they could sexually...

Everytime someone brings gender discussions into 40k transhumans, it tends to stir up a shitstorm. I do wonder if the Custodes thing is testing the waters for future female Space Marines. Personally, even extending to Space Marines - I don't see why not. Fundamentally the base human is more or...

I kinda like that there is a noble faction out there, it provides contrast. Also the noble faction is absolutely tiny and inconsequential and has no hopes of challenging the real galactic main players! What better way to highlight just how grim the galaxy is? Though recent Tau lore has shifted...

There's one really awful part in that act where it's a storybook event - but you get a gameover if you fail the last skill check. Worst shit ever. My Rogue Trader wasn't combat oriented so I thought I was in for a rough time, but I had my Argenta built for heavy weapons which is just about the...

Good time as ever to dig through their archives. I'm just browsing them and the memories are coming back. I enjoyed Uncivil War. There was also a short lived MtG column called Hexproof. I did watch They did open up the general for chatting, but they have muted it again. We'll see what comes...

Yahtzee was basically why the site even continued to exist back when the first exodus happened. I still remember the time when Jim Sterling, Movie Bob, Extra Credits among others. Then it was just Yahtzee. Anyway seems like they started a new venture called The Second Wind with its own discord...

So I just watched Gen V. I kinda found out about it recently and wasn't expecting too much from a The Boys spinoff, but I quite liked it. Some characters were kinda annoying but well, I think it comes with the territory when it's about college kids. Also surprised how it kinda ties into the main...

Doom Eternal. I was playing it because of gamepass, was mostly having fun but then I noticed I was doing a lot of stupid jump/climb puzzles..... and eventually decided I had enough of those. I get that some games wanna offer something different to break up the pace or whatever - but by god do I...

As far as random JRPG stories go, I really liked Radiant Historia. I played the old DS game, but it got a 3Ds makeover.

Been playing Everspace 2. Noticed it was on Gamepass and thought - they this looks like a more fleshed out version of the Starfield spaceship parts! It is in some ways, but in other ways not really. It's kinda like spaceship combat Diablo. Though only in terms of the randomized loot. It's fun...

The only real reason I see you need to build Outposts.... is if you want to build outposts. Generally the amount of resources outposts can amass is beyond any practical in game use. There are some repeating quests you can find where you need to deliver thousands of certain elements, or establish...

Well I finally beat the game. I might have missed some random sidequests and whatnot, but I did all main faction questlines and finished the main story. I had fun but I kinda agree with what some people were saying - that this was the biggest mid thing that Bethesda has done. I played it on...

It's been over a decade since I played FFX but I remember that you could get certain sphere items that allowed you to learn sphere skills regardless of your grid. But the condition was that another character had to learn it first. So I had these Black Magic Spheres which I used to teach Yuna...

Starfield has its issues but you're just doing the whole "I JUST WANT TO BE ANGRY" thing. Slinging powers alongside gunplay is hardly the newest concept. System Shock had Psi powers from way back then, which then developed into Plasmids and Vigors in Bioshock. Dishonored did magic shit...
