Dragon Age 2 was a helluva game...

This review seemed rushed to me... Am I the only one who thinks this?

Judging the game for its faults solely based on a Beta is putting the cart before the horse. And you, sir, will not be going very far with a cart pushing a horse. Wait till May 15. Play it (or don't, go knit, I don't care), and then rant and rave. Seems so pointless doing it now... But don't...

You, sir, are confusing the word "beta" with "demo."

I think the inherent difference, though, that you are not acknowledging is that a story is a subjective experience. If there is a bug in a game that causes it to be broken, that is a mechanical issue. Everyone who experiences the game will note and dislike this bug. A story, on the other hand...

Well, I think my first question is what you meant by "anti-fan whiners." Do you mean an anti-fan who also whines, or an individual who is against fans who happen to whine? But I digress... The way consumerism (and the overarching framework of capitalism) works is pretty simple. If the fans...

I want to begin by stating that this a brief sketch, written lazily as I fall asleep in my Ikea swivel chair. Over the past few weeks I have followed the outrage, from forum fanaticism to the (rather odd) weird youtube videos...

Your use of a "broken game" here is interesting. Because, it is true, a game can be broken. There can be debilitating bugs, crashes or significant framerate loss. But, how can a game be broken on a story level? You make a leap in your argument to simply prove that your dislike of the game ending...

Yeah that makes total sense. Thanks for the chat Samantha! Badass badguy? Check. Crazy magical owls? Check. Naked lady neck tattoos? Check.

Hey Stu, First of all, I did not explicitly say that Bioware is not a part of this problem. I do, however, believe that the percentage of fans that are outwardly expressing a mode of recourse from Bioware are irrational. Now, your comment about the book fans directly effecting the video...

This whole thing says more about the fans of the series than the company that made it. We saw this occur earlier in the year when the Mass Effect book was released and there was a petition to change various lore issues that were discovered. Contributing to fandom does not inherently provide...

Louis CK. Daniel Tosh. Phil Collins.

You sir, are the master of innuendo.

How do you have genital warts as a virgin? Have you seen a doctor? Are you doing anything about it? These questions need to be resolved before we can figure out if what you did was the right thing.

You answer your own question mitchell. If it's killing you that she is with this other guy, then saying "I hope it works out" is essentially a lie. Your motivation behind said lie is to prove to her that you're better than grovelling for her to go to prom with you instead of him. But that is...
