That?s unfortunate. Not for the publishers of course, but for society at large. Guaranteed those kids aren?t learning positive social skills fragging and screaming at each other through headsets. Only making it that much more difficult for them to develop into functional human beings...

I think Sony and Microsoft have just accepted that their target demographic is pretty much everyone outside of Nintendo?s, because they realized they?d never capture it anyways. Who the hell can compete with Mario/Zelda/Pok?mon/etc. I mean, they?ve tried but Viva Pi?ata/Spiro/Crash...

Who here agrees? https://psychcentral.com/news/2014/02/02/prosocial-video-games-instill-kindness-helpfulness-in-kids/65302.html

I know many of you will say Nintendo is the Walt Disney of video games but I am thinking of games that are cinematic and character as well as plot driven like Bioware games but are colorful and kid friendly. Perhaps Telltale could fit this but they have shut down. Does the video game industry...

The world is a dark place and perhaps it is time the gaming world give us something of this generation that is optimistic. Games like God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, Red Dead Redemption 2, The Witcher 3, and Marvel's Spider Man are groundbreaking. Do we deserve a space game with the same level of...

I liked Mass Effect but shooting aliens gets boring. How can an space opera game without the typical space marine stuff be successful? A sims type game in a Star Trek or Mass Effect type universe? Animal Crossing in space? A dating sim involving a lovable spaceship crew?

Should we start giving an ultimatum to first offense bullies, saying ?Ok, you did something awful there and we need to figure out why to prevent it from happening again. Otherwise you and most likely your parents or legal guardian will need to be dealt with permanently.? Would that clear...

Kids? How about teens? I had friend in High School who really loved Mass Effect. It was only until after High School I got into that series.

Bioware used to be known to create games with interesting lore and characters. Stuff like the ME3 ending and MEA development have tarnished their name. CD Projekt Red has taken up their mantle as the premiere developer of WRPGs. Should Bioware or some other developer bring an interesting...

Does a video game have to be M rated to have a good story? Should there be games of AAA quality aimed at younger audiences or does the vast majority of parents don?t care? Horizon Zero Dawn and Spider Man were huge successes! Should Disney get back into game development and bring us the...

This is heartbreaking! https://au.news.yahoo.com/mother-finds-heartbreaking-message-daughters-nintendo-game-023316873.html https://www.springfielddailyrecord.com.au/news/home-schooling-on-rise-as-australian-bullies-world/3364756/...

What do you think of Disneyland and Disney World? Are they overpriced? Or are they worth it? Would you recommend a Disney vacation? That Mission Space ride looks cool!

http://www.dailytarheel.com/article/2018/09/viewpoints-video-games-0830 Is there a culture within gaming that aims to keep the gaming community from being inclusive? Do we need a female answer to Zelda? Is Horizon Zero Dawn a good solution to this problem? Is FemShep awesome? It would...

With the failure of Andromeda are Bioware style RPGs dead? Have RPGs including recent Bioware RPGs become too long? A Mass Effect game from the original trilogy lasts 20-40 hours. I hear games like Witcher 3 Dragon Age Inquisition, and Breath of the Wild can take more than 100 hours. Would...

Were things really that bad for DnD players in the 80s and 90s? Did entire schools ban DnD? Would people refuse to associate with you if they found out you played DnD? Were DnD players terrorized by high school and college students back then or are those wild stories?
