Huh, with both Jim and Bob gone I don't think there's anything left here for me. I stopped enjoying Yatzhee a few years back so there's not even that.

It seems like Blizzard is going more DOTA2 than League in terms of making more unique, free-form heroes. I approve.

Well there's the problem, that line about designers. 5E to me as a whole is incredibly underwhelming, it's just reheated leftovers from 3.5. Mike Mearls, the lead designer behind nearly everything 5E, doesn't really seem to care. Fifth Edition feels like Mearls publishing his homerules for 3rd...

Wow, that Artificer class... That's pretty bad... It's quite a feat to make it until level 14 to let them actually Artifice. It's even worse because they blatantly admit that they're gutting Artificers. Also I like how they apparently didn't get the entire point of Dragonmarks: IE that they...

These are my feelings on the surveys as well. 5E had reams and reams and reams of survey data from over a year of playtesting and still put out something decidedly mediocre and backwards leaning. It was disheartening to see WotC gimp Fighters playtest after playtest because "Tradition", and the...

Well too late for me, I bought a Japanese 3DS over a year or so ago precisely because I wanted to play games like Inazuma Eleven and Super Robot Wars. I'm sad it took this long for someone to crack the region lock.

If the only way forward you can see would "involve higher standards on what constitutes ethical online behavior" then you've got problems. If you can't legally provide a better service than piracy than you've already lost. Get behind legal, fair, streaming services and actually try and appeal to...

I basically gave up on Naruto being good WAAAAAY back at the forest of death, but even plenty of people who were fans will tell you that the series has been in steep decline since the Pein arc. So no, I don't think it's a shame that a bad but overlong series finally concludes.

That actually sounds like it might have been pretty interesting depending on how it was done. I'd have liked to have seen it.

Having played through Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright let me just say this seems incredibly tame for this particular little genre of games.

Well that was only slightly stranger than some of the Tokusatsu shows I've watched.

Try again, Comcast already won the 2014 worst company poll. EA lost in the first round.

That's what jumped out at me also, and why these apologies continue to ring hollow. EA still hasn't owned up to the unrelenting awfulness of Dungeon Keeper, they're still trying to shovel the blame on the consumers for not liking what was basically a medium to sell micro-transactions. Origin has...

In what possible universe could it be said the Ouya succeeded?

Came in here to say that. PDP is free to make his own choices about his own channel, and he is very correct that youtube comments are a toxic waste dump, but it's not exactly as though he himself is a shining example of quality, non-toxic commentary.
