    Black Desert Online

    A truly groundbreaking character creator attached to a bog-standard MMORPG. My understanding is that there's a lot of content that hasn't been released outside of South Korea, so we'll see, but right now it's Grind City.

    Do I deserve to be spat on for saying this to a gay person?

    I see what you're saying but I don't think it applies here. To me at least, the OP reads as pretty homophobic. It's not like he says that he considers himself tolerant and open-minded but PDA in general makes him uncomfortable. He starts out with a variation on the old theme of "I don't mind...

    Do I deserve to be spat on for saying this to a gay person?

    Your disgust at seeing men kiss is homophobia, no other way to look at it (note that you said men specifically, not women or heterosexual couples). As for that slogan, it doesn't mean that people choose to be homophobic to begin with (like most biases, homophobia is a product of societal and...

    Out of Sight Out of Mind (Mass Effect 2)

    She does, but as her loyalty mission shows, she's also an unreliable narrator of her own life. Who knows what actually happened in that facility? It might be that Jack is just naturally a colossal asshole.

    Help!

    Could a human being possibly get any lazier than this? The assignment is apparently to talk about anything you want, and you still need other people to feed you ideas?

    What would you do?

    I'd go to Arkham Asylum and use it to identify smashable walls.

    Out of Sight Out of Mind (Mass Effect 2)

    For the same reason we had never heard of Cloud City or Yoda prior to Empire Strikes Back. They hadn't been written yet. If you want an in-universe explanation, it's because the galaxy is fucking big. Also, Justicars rarely leave Asari territory and the specifics of the Terminus systems...

    What game would you like to see as a movie.

    I would argue Silent Hill was a "serious" attempt, and it was a piece of crap that totally missed the point of the games. The bottom line is that games don't translate well into movies. Movies can occasionally make good games (usually through inspiration rather than direct translation)...

    What game would you like to see as a movie.

    What about Tomb Raider? I think it would really work if it were given a much more unwieldy title and starred a woman who looks incapable of lifting a bag of groceries.

    What game would you like to see as a movie.

    The Road Warrior and Lord of the Rings have already been made. The answer is absolutely none. The two genres don't mix well. No game property has ever been improved by a movie.

    Help?

    If you're looking for a totally average FPS, I suppose you could do worse than Wolfenstein.

    Barbarian

    Be from anywhere other than Greece. ...what? That's what it means.

    My teacher wants us to become social deviants...

    That is a really cool assignment!

    The English Language

    What does this even mean?

    Adaptations of The Divine Comedy

    Why is "read" in quotes? But yeah, it's a poem. Prose translations of poems are almost universally terrible. (See also the works of Homer.) Either read it the way it was intended or don't read it at all.
