    Zero Punctuation: Pyre

    Thanks for the tip about turning the difficulty down. I didn't like the gameplay. I did get a rush from it, but it was from stress, rather than enjoyment.

    Poll: Marriage - What is it Good For? (Absolutely Nothing! Huh! Yeah!)

    1. Are you married? If yes, are you keen on it? Do you believe it's the RIGHT THING FOR EVERYONE and apply passive pressure to your unmarried friends to follow your lead, say the arcane words over the magic book, and exchange symbols? Not married. Personally, as a Christian I am keen on it. I...

    Rumor: No Single-Player DLC Coming for Mass Effect: Andromeda

    Andromeda was a fine game. I'd say it was better than Dragon Age 2. +Large open worlds -Filled with a lot of nothing with non-vital side quests that add very little to character growth or story. (DA:I had these, but you could just avoid the blatant completionist filler and still have a fun...

    Why didn't people go see "Fantastic Beasts"?

    Concern it was a shallow cash grab. I had that concern with Rogue One and loved that film. So I am a hypocrite. Still sceptic about seeing the film. I didn't adore the Harry Potter films, to begin with.

    Why is humanity looking for a new home if the Reapers were destroyed?

    For once, we're the alien invaders.

    Good Bad Flicks: Exploring Frozen

    I confess I went out of my way to watch this video immediately as I saw it, to see how starkly it contrasts to the whimsical Disney film of the same name.

    Natural 20: Party's Over - Sesaon Finale

    More! Sharing my affection for this series vocally. Hoping this would help The Escapist fund* the next season. *fund used in a vague sense. I don't know how this series is supported beyond Patron and Escapist platform.

    The whole holding-a-door-thing

    Keep opening doors because that's what you'd do anyway. If someone gets offended by it, it's their problem which they have to address. If you're opening a door because you want the person to owe you, then there's a problem.

    Natural 20: Unnatural 20

    The episodes are very interesting now. You never know what you're going to get. They feel arty, but in the context of DnD. An interesting combination.

    'Refer to the wiki' games.

    A good tutorial mode for a game with depth would be a "hold your hand mode" where it tells you what to do and why. And then you can drop down to the "suggestions mode". And drop down to the "tells you sh*t" mode. Balanced by the hold your hand isn't suggesting the optimum way to play, but a...

    Overwatch open beta - What are your impressions?

    Regarding Blizzard's pricing. I complained on the forums about the price of character transfers on World of Warcraft regarding keeping up with friends who jump servers/factions constantly. You invest a lot of time in these characters and so it sucks when your friends put you in this position...

    Natural 20: Whip And Lash

    That was a journey which I didn't understand, but got off the vehicle feeling nice. I like the reveal at the end.

    Natural 20: Side Quest

    Ah it makes sense now. It was really awkward to watch until the revelation.
