    XCOM 2 Review - Welcome Back, Commander

    It doesn't really cripple you so much as it just sort of wastes your time. Fortunately, it doesn't really happen all that often, as most missions aren't story missions, and when you fail, you're allowed to move on regardless.

    Dragon Age: Retribution

    Yeah, the "railroading," as you call it, is sort of required to a point. In the context of basic HTML (and paper, for that matter ;-)), you can't really tell it "if node 3 was X, offer options Y and Z on node 150." Instead, if you want a choice from "node 3" to really matter in a big way by...

    Dragon Age: Retribution

    Thanks guys, glad to hear you liked it. It's been pretty interesting reading different takes on the ethically dubious decision you're left with at the end.

    Fallout 4 Teaser Site Welcomes You To The Institute

    Fallout 4 Teaser Sites Broadcasts Ominous New Message

    Clearly this is an official Game of Thrones/Fallout IP medley, a la Aliens vs. Predator. After the nukes dropped during The Winds of Winter (spoiler!) the timeline split into two realities: one is A Dream of Spring, the other is Fallout 4. With the world little more than a Song of Fire and...

    Assassin's Creed: New World

    You're absolutely right. I found the error. This should be working now! Thanks so much for spotting the bug! It was sort of tough to find, because you had to made a very specific chain of decisions to get caught in it. Please try again!

    Assassin's Creed: New World

    Thanks! Actually, it's not a loop. Think about that bit like a point-and-click adventure, where you can talk to the same NPCs more than once. You can enter the Animus to stop asking questions. I also updated some text to hopefully make that more clear. :)
