    Zero Punctuation: Hitman

    I think they're afraid that a modern gamer would load up the game and then just go "Well what am I supposed to do!?!?!?" and turn the game off in confusion.

    The Problem with Freemium Games

    You aren't doing anything "wrong" by not paying. Go watch the South Park episode "Freemium Isn't Free" They are expecting 95%+ of the players to never pay a dime. You aren't even the target audience. You aren't stealing anything. Not in the slightest. Hearthstone is one of the worst...

    Zero Punctuation: Final Fantasy XV

    This game has pretty much the same strengths and weaknesses as Xenoblade X - they sacrificed a significant amount on the alter of the open world gods. It's tons of fun running all over the place on your chocobo exploring and fighting and doing the bazillion side quests, but it comes at the cost...

    Zero Punctuation: Watch_Dogs 2

    I think it's more like "What old men think Anonymous and 4chan think they are. The Game."

    Dishonored 2 Shouldn't Be Encouraging Comparisons to Thief

    That's why the (first two) Batman games worked so well. The random mooks you could stalk from the shadows would half the time talk about how much they hate Batman, and half the time talk about some pizza place on the corner that they robbed that one time.

    Zero Punctuation: Titanfall 2 vs Call of Duty Infinite Warfare

    Too late, Titanfall 2 has already sold poorly, even EA has admitted it. You know, because it released within a month of THREE other AAA multiplayer focused bro shooters (Gears 4, BF1, COD:Whatever). One of them was even released by EA! Laughably, it's even the best of the rotten bunch...

    Zero Punctuation: Gears of War 4

    You put it in a non-linear action and/or adventure and/or RPG game that focuses on exploration, not just combat.

    Zero Punctuation: Mafia 3

    That's usually a sure formula to: 1. Not make as much money as them 2. Be compared unfavorably to them. 3. Not quite understand why people like those games. 4. Poorly emulate the formula. And people are even sick of open world Ubisoft games.......hence why Ubisoft has slowed their...

    Zero Punctuation: Mafia 3

    It's like we've gotten to the point where people are now badly copying Ubisoft open world games rather than the usual other way around.

    Zero Punctuation: Paper Mario Color Splash

    LordTerminal is in full melt down. It's hilarious to watch but also really sad. Uh, yes it is. Because people have been saying it since Sticker Star came out. Also it's their jobs to find out what people like and don't like about their games. Nintendo now has a long history of ignoring...

    Zero Punctuation: Paper Mario Color Splash

    ...lol. Yeah Sony made the PC version too, right? Arrogance and ignorance.....a combination that ensures no one will ever take anything you say seriously. You might as well just stop posting.

    Zero Punctuation: Paper Mario Color Splash

    lol. Yeah, we're WRONG to agree with him because you said so.

    Zero Punctuation: Paper Mario Color Splash

    All the reviews for this game are hilarious, because they all say "This game is so great! It looks great and it's funny! Ohbutitsjustlikestickerstarandthosepartsarereallyreallyreallybadbutmaybetrytoignorethosepartsyeahweknowyoucantignorethemsojusttrytotolerateit.....did we mention the game...

    This is How You Fix RPG Sidequests

    Variety is a huge part of this. It's fine if you have to clean out someone's basement of rats, but you should only be doing that once in the whole game unless there's a twist on it. (Like the second one you do, it's not rats at all but there's some cave in the basement that leads to an ancient...

    Zero Punctuation: Clustertruck & Lichtspeer

    So the Hotline Miami flavor of difficulty.
