    Poll: Escapist Game of the Year

    The answer is Hollow Knight. How this game isn't on the list when all that other shit is on there baffles me. Botw is my obligatory vote from the list.

    Blade Runner 2049 - A Great Too-Late Sequel?

    I hated the new Blade Runner, which I wasn't really expecting going in. It was amusing though cause I went with the same bunch of friends who I saw Alien: Covenant with and it was a full repeat. They all liked both movies and I hated them both when I thought I'd love them. The movie is...

    What do you think are the most Underrated games of all time?

    My kind of thread. -Odd World: Stranger's Wrath One of the best shooters/western games ever made. Better than RDR which is saying a lot. -Aliens Vs Predators (2010) Genuinely fantastic campaign from 3 different perspectives. Pvp that captured the feeling of Aliens perfectly. Metro...

    How much is your money worth to you?

    If I know I want it I will buy it no matter the price. Otherwise I'll wait years till something is lower than 20 bucks to buy it. Endless Legend was is a recent example, really really interested when I saw it was coming out, but not in the must buy so I waited till yesterday when it was on sale...

    Games for Non-Gamers

    Does he have any predilection for genres, cause if he likes fantasy then I think a obvious choice would be Ocarina of Time. It's a common "first game" for a good reason. It's compelling, simple without being patronizing and it's got all the quality fantasy beats that make a good story. Only...

    How would you make a good Superman game?

    I think personally the best way to make an interesting Superman game would ironically be to address the criticism leveled at the Man of Steel (2013) and have the player be almost uncontrollably powerful and centre all of the design and mechanics on the player having to be careful with their...

    What game do you hate most?

    Well damn... Na buddy I agree with Kina, FF8 has a lot of problems but it has fantastic pacing in the first two disks, oddly fresh feeling versions of cliche characters and the super cliche high school meets fantastic setting. Combat is just as great any classic FF (even if the magic...

    Undertale: A Review in Hindsight

    I've considered Undertale to be one of the most puerile gaming miscarriages of the last few years. There are solid glimpses of a good game parallaxing away in the background but overall it's a self-indulgent mess with to much meta and far to little substance.

    Yooka-Laylee Delayed to Q1 2017, New Trailer Shows Off Gameplay

    Oh my god I want to contain myself but the hype is very palpable right now. It looks gorgeous and has some really interesting mechanics sprinkled amongst some at-least-so-far bland looking ones. No indication that I can see of what the hub world/travel system is so I can't tell whether the...

    Lets talk Dark Souls bosses

    I agree with most of what people are saying so far in this thread. I don't usually level my health up past the starting stats so estus never really felt that broken to me since one estus filled my health bar no matter what. Which meant that it felt more fair to the boss since I was never...

    Undertale, An Analysis. [Spoilers]

    Thanks for actually responding to my post :P I understand your point both in the fact that people play undertale for the meta humour which it does pretty damn well so they should) and can understand why you and other people like Sans/Papyrus but I still can reconcile the weird balance of it...

    Undertale, An Analysis. [Spoilers]

    It's not really a review, more an analysis. Did you want me to change the title to make that clearer?

    Undertale, An Analysis. [Spoilers]

    I haven't frequented the escapist forums in a little while and I'm sure you could create an accurate atomic clock if you timed how many undertale threads you guys have had to deal with lately but here is mine. After watching Yahtzee's top 5 list and reading all the bitching (from both sides)...
