    A nitpick on Persona 4

    That one's easy. You answer a question correctly in class, people think you're intelligent and the corresponding stat point goes up. You study when you're alone, and your character is able to more easily answer questions and stuff "off-screen". They just give you the points immediately for how...

    Poll: Attacks as minigames in your turn-based JRPGs

    Super Mario RPG had my favorite way of doing it. A simple additional button press at the correct time to boost damage (with a unique animation in most cases, whether it be Mario adding an uppercut to his attack or a quick extra lightning flash from Mallow's "Thunderbolt" skill), as well as being...

    You have just been sent into the world of you favorite game. However,

    Well, I rather like the Hyperdimension Neptunia games, so I suppose that I would alternate between hunting whatever is the safest low-level monsters for enough money to pay the bills, and trying to see if it's possible to tame a Dogoo into a relatively safe housepet. (If so, then I'd probably...

    GTA 5 Liberty City Mod Shut Down by Creators

    So, they were using this project as a sort of test-bed for OpenIV? Like, if they ran into a roadblock where they couldn't do something due to lack of functionality, they knew what feature to add in next to add said functionality? I don't play the Grand Theft Auto games, so I'm going to need a...

    Battleborn Gets New Free Trial that Makes it Basically Free-to-Play

    So, if there's no time limit on how long you can play, and it appears that damn near the whole game is available to you, what is the difference between this "free trial" and just being flat-out free to play?

    The $100 Steam Direct Fee is Bad for Steam, and Bad for Gamers

    I think that one thing that could probably help fix Steam would be a decent blacklist system tied alongside the different tags. For instance, let's say I'm a really squeamish person and I can't stand blood. I can blacklist the "Gore" tag, and now every single game with that tag essentially no...

    Take-Two CEO Says the Company is Under-Monetizing its Users

    Eh. I only have two conditions as far as microtransactions go. 1: Keep the advertising in the store. I already paid for the game, I don't want to see advertisements on all of the loading screens, leaderboards, and gear selection about how I should be paying for more shit. 2: Make sure that...

    So. Dragonball Super's Tournament Arc Twist (Spoilers)

    I kind of agree with the idea of using Perfect Cell instead. His obsession with perfection and being the best would drive him towards doing his best in the tournament instead of constantly looking for a chance to double-cross the team. Also, since he's so much weaker than the current cast now...

    Why are people hyping up The Emoji Movie?

    To be fair towards Foodfight, there's a bit of a story behind production. I don't feel like looking up the details, so I'll give you the general idea. The studio behind it actually thought they had a good idea. They spent TONS of money on producing the movie, licensing deals, etc. Then there...

    Combat in Horror games

    If you can't fight, then you have the comfort of knowing that in order for the game to be possible to win, there will always be a safe place to hide or evade the enemy. At that point, it's not really horror, but more of a creepy-themed puzzle game. If you can fight, and the game makes no...

    Vanquish PC Bug Makes Higher Framerates Equal Higher Damage Taken

    Kind of reminds me of Metal Gear Rising, where a lot of the game is reliant of frame-rate. For instance, if your frame-rate is off during the tutorial level, Sundowner gets stuck in the ground during the chase sequence. You can't do anything to him once you catch up, but you can keep going as...

    Poll: So where have all the VR talk gone?

    To be completely honest, as interested as I am in getting a VR headset, I'm in the same boat as most everybody else where it's the cost that keeps me from getting one. On the bright side, they're about the cost of a rather large television, so when I get to the point where I need a new one of...

    Wonder Woman's Lasso of Truth

    I don't read the comics, but I had to ask... Has there ever been an occasion where the person in the lasso just starts babbling incoherently about all sorts of random personal things in an attempt to get out of revealing important information? Kind of like "Well, I have to speak the truth...

    #171: A Flash of Light

    Also, to clarify to enginieri, Great Gospel is a type of attack called a Limit Break. It just means that it's a special type of attack that usually takes multiple battles to charge a single use. Just wanted to clear it up, in case it sounded too overpowered to make any sort of sense.

    Robot Trained to Shoot Guns is "Not a Terminator," Insists Russia

    "Come on guys, it's totally not a Terminator. We're going for more like Fallout 4's Synths." Don't worry guys, as long as we've got stairs, we should be safe from bi-pedal robots like this, somewhat.
