    Bioware's New IP is Shared-World Action-RPG Anthem

    I like the design and effects, but the combat looked unrealistically simple. Since it's OG BioWare working on it, I'll give them the benefit of a somewhat passable story and game world. BioWare isn't exactly known for their innovative combat mechanics, so I'm thinking that it'll be a clone of...

    Destiny 2 to Ditch Grimoire Cards, Keep Lore In-Game

    I don't think they're doing an auto MM system. It sounds like a more manual advertise/invite system. @11 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI3ynsyxYl8

    Destiny 2 to Ditch Grimoire Cards, Keep Lore In-Game

    There is some sort of clan support, as there appears to be clan banners now. There's no matchmaking for raids, but clans can advertise spots in raiding groups for people to join.

    Destiny 2 to Ditch Grimoire Cards, Keep Lore In-Game

    Heh, wouldn't it be funny if their idea of putting the lore "in the game," ends up being the "view lore" button opens an ingame browser window that loads an external website so that you can read lore posted there?

    Rick Explained (in Season 3) (Rick and Morty Spoilers)

    Huh, I've never felt Rick was mysterious or hard to understand at all. He does care, but he's also smart enough to realize the utterly fleeting nature of the people he cares about. He tends to keep them at arms length and acts aloof in an attempt to minimize forming attachments that he already...

    Zero Punctuation: Outlast 2

    Yes, but the point still stands that the school and the backwoods are unconnected. It's not even like he was in Silent Hill, where the childhood trauma would be emerging because it is what defined all his life choices since then. In fact, it flat out stated at the start, that he just suddenly...

    #171: A Flash of Light

    Based on the blue bits floating off Rad and the soldier heads, it looks like she's already pulling all the crystal out of the people, possibly with some sort of restoration spell? That seems rather direct and anti-climactic. Based on the title, I thought they were going to try something like...

    PETA is Angry that Nintendo Turned Cow Milking into a 1-2-Switch Game

    How do I delete a post I posted by accident?

    Destiny 2 Arrives September 8, PC Confirmed

    Hope that they get things right on the first try, this time around. I'll be waiting after release to see if it's worth picking up. Seems like ever since they figured out how to optimally milk the hype machine, dev/publishers have just been half-assing the actual games.

    What's the Quickest You've Ever Given Up on a Game?

    EVE Online. I spent 2 days downloading and installing it. Stared at the character creation menus for 30 mins and then uninstalled the game 5 mins after I started the ship control tutorial.

    UPDATED: An Under the Radar Change to Enemy Scaling Has the WoW Community Up in Arms

    Their real mistake was being honest and trying to explain why they didn't list the change in the patch; should've just lied and said they forgot to mention it.

    Lets talk about Iron Fist! (On Netflix)

    Every time I see the guy who plays Darvos, I think Manmeet! The show is not very good and the portrayal of Rand makes him look more like a bipolar schizophrenic suffering PTSD seizures, than someone who has attained reverse-hulk powers that only work when he doesn't get angry. Given what...

    Ubisoft Drops the Banhammer on For Honor AFK Farmers

    That's why I mentioned "people who were flagged as afk". They seem to be able to identify people who are afk to ban/warn them, so only allow people who have been detected to be afk to be vote kicked.

    Ubisoft Drops the Banhammer on For Honor AFK Farmers

    Yeah, but wouldn't it be more productive to auto-kick or let people vote-kick people who were flagged as afk?

    Ubisoft Drops the Banhammer on For Honor AFK Farmers

    So the punishment for people not playing the game, is to not let them play the game for 3 days?
