    Doom Eternal Gameplay

    Sure it was cool, but is Doom really the franchise we want taking cues from Halo? Sure, it has the potential to work, but only if they really solidify that "compromise with sin" dynamic between Samuel Hayden and the Slayer (which was tenuous at best in D16). Sure there's a shitton of Doom...

    Doom Eternal Gameplay

    It's not weird; I'd be shocked if it wasn't deliberate. I'm a bit concerned that Doom, of all things, has picked up the "bunch of grunts stand in awe of the Player Character" trope, and unless they seriously step up the writing all Id will do is make a series in an identity crisis all the more...

    Franchises that would make ideal Telltale episodic adventure game.

    I just want them to hurry up and do another Grickle game. They still haven't topped Puzzle Agent, in my hubristic opinion.

    Square Enix and the Hitman Ripoff

    Not trying to derail this, but I'm complaining >_>. What? I get miffed when a company blatantly offers inoffensive, generic tripe that doesn't have the creativity to actually be about superheroes and then everyone pats it on the back for being "bold" and "revolutionary". Don't judge me...

    FF7 remake most important ever, and that's not a compliment

    FF7 isn't remembered because it's a good game; it's remembered because it was in the right place at the right time and hit all the right notes. At the time, Final Fantasy was a series big enough to be noticed but not big enough that the sudden success wouldn't surprise anyone. It was hyped to...

    That E3 Feeling

    Panel 1 described me before E3. Panel 1 also described me after E3. What'cha gonna do about it?

    Valve Ruined My Joke Art Day

    That really is a pretty picture. I love the angle, perspective, and the way it twists up on the right-hand side. It doesn't even need a naughty word to be worth my time.

    Oh look, a new Telltale series that isn't Puzzle Agent. Pass.

    Mortal Kombat, Postal And The Real Censorship Of Fantasy Violence

    It's interesting to see how many people completely misunderstand [https://youtu.be/8tF8m0q_CQM?t=43s] Thompson's opinions on the subject. Granted he couldn't properly communicate his ideas to save his career, but still.

    Obsidian accused of transmisogyny in Pillars of Eternity

    The world would be a better place if people didn't automatically assume their rustled jimmies were worthy of political outrage. I mean, if anything the poem is saying men that look like women are not a big deal because it's making fun of someone who took it too seriously. I wish I could shoot...

    White male protagonists in video games

    Pretty sure you just described everyone in the "Games & Social Justice" debate/shouting match.

    I've Broken Both My Wrists, What Can I Do For Fun?

    Tape a fleshlight to your forearm? Also to piggyback off of what Frezz said, walking is quite a nice active activity. Doubly so when outside.

    REPORT: Comic Cover Causes Censorship Concerns

    nononononono let's not reignite the shitstorm on a thread making fun of said shitstorm. Let's all take a step back and admire the awesome alliteration from Admiral Taco.

    Avengers: Age of Ultron Concept Art Posters - Final Update

    aaaand Fauxhawk still looks like a chump. Glad the only character in the MCU I care about is also handled the worst.
