    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    We already had this discussion in the E3 thread, and probably another thread. It's not that Nintendo CAN'T succeed sticking with their own hardware, it's just that consumers (us) and arguably Nintendo themselves would benefit MORE from them abandoning their own hardware sooner rather than later...

    While I hate double standards, bitching about white-washing = bad, diversity = good, is just ignorant of society and history. There's a reason white-washing has a negative connotation right now and I wouldn't be surprised if in 40, 50 years it wasn't anymore. But right now? Fuck yea. Again, I...

    Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV (2016)

    Animated movies have taken to advertising their star voice actors lately in trailers. Even the ones that aren't big movies and have no stars, but they do it anyway. I will totally see this in the theater because goddamn does it look pretty. Also, even though FF7 isn't my favorite game, I...

    It would have made the "Black" in the name even more ridiculous :P Honestly... it's just too impossible to know if throwing non-white actors at a role is pandering, or just that actor is good for the role. I fucking love Idris Elba as Heimdall and I really don't have any person that I...

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    I meant like, are people leaving their screens on, turning them off, putting the phone in their pocket, holding it, strapping it to their bike, etc. to get these eggs going. I've tried a bunch of shit walking 2 or so miles a night with my dog and I'm lucky to get 0.5km

    I'm a little skeptical of the Flash recovery yea but I'm almost positive he'll be in a healthier state now than before. Less obnoxious at mid-long range, Flash -> FtH should almost guaranteed kill flankers now (Genji/Tracer) which is fine. I don't think this is gonna be enough for Pharah to be...

    Well shit, what am I gonna complain about now? That is almost pixel-perfect what I wanted them to do to McCree :P

    I can't read the forum post because work blocks b.net, but recoil really doesn't seem to be a problem McCree needs. Scale down the damage falloff to somewhere in the middle for once, buff FtH SLIGHTLY (they dropped it what, 10 damage per bullet? Tons of room to increase that slightly or increase...

    All this talk of eggs, has anyone figured out the best way to actually make the app track your movement yet? Especially if you're biking it around. The weather is almost tolerable a little bit here some of these days and finally have my bike back so there's potential to put a little more energy...

    So it's going to be an underpowered tablet without the versatility of a tablet or the advantages of a home console. Sounds brilliant.

    Justice League (2017)

    I don't know anything about Mother Boxes and yes that sounds a weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee bit completely derivative. Edit: Maybe they're just going to fuck up all their "group" movies like BvS and JL, but have decent single-star ones like WW and Batfleck. Or they could all just be rubbish.

    I mean, if they didn't address the big issues after they were called out within a couple days, I don't think it sitting on PTR for another week would have mattered. There was clearly something else going on and most of the changes were never going to be re-addressed this patch.

    Overwatch

    But you can see those interactions. Those interactions are clear on paper and in game. I'm mediocre at best on McCree (I canusuallyget a headshot when I flashbang someone... usually) and he still clearly is too strong despite having a skill that should never be used. They specifically called out...

    Overwatch

    There IS a lot of skill that goes into the interaction of units in Starcraft, though. Movespeed, attack speed, damage-per-shot, all matter a lot when you're microing units hither and thither. It's a different KIND of skill than Overwatch, but it still matters. Overwatch has a lot of moving parts...

    I've been trying to still play Pharah and it's just painful, and that's right in the 50ish area. Like, sometimes can still do well on the damage charts, but it's just not fun because of how fast you die every time. I've been switching to McCree myself and with 2 hours played of him (most of that...

    While it's not a pretty graph, nor quite as much data (I think) as the one from a few weeks ago, it sure looks like this past patch actually hurt pick diversity. That's how it felt watching the matches but didn't see everything so thought I might be wrong. From a mechanics standpoint, Mercy...

    Star Trek Beyond (2016)

    As someone who grew up (semi-literally) with Star Trek: TNG and then the others, I found this to be the most solid of the three so far. Still could have been better, but there's not many episodes I ever saw where I didn't say the same thing. The problem here is honestly the same problem the...

    Justice League (2017)

    Maybe I was just disoriented from the effects of watching BvS, but didn't the Flash clip in BvS have a much more Asian person as the Flash? Also the Batman suit looks way worse in the trailer here than it should.

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    I pretty much gave up on this for now due to the egg tracking being useless and no convenient Pokestops for me despite living in a city (there's lots of clusters of them in places I go maybe once every couple weeks). I mean I think it's neat, it's just too unwieldy for how much I care.

    I mostly disagree with this. His range falloff was too short, sure, but now it's too long again, like it used to be. FtH was too strong, but now it's too weak. They really have an issue with smaller changes so far it seems like. The problem with FtH now is that it actually does damage too slowly...

    I Am Setsuna - July 19th PS4/PC

    Sure but it was still DEVELOPED for the Vita, regardless of how many places it was actually localized for. Add to that that Square is pretty consistent in charging a little more than people expect for ports/smaller releases but having lots of sales, compared to Ubi's smaller published games that...

    I Am Setsuna - July 19th PS4/PC

    Child of Light was developed by a small team and published by Ubi. Setsuna is a full SE title I think (not sure) and developed for all 3 platforms (PS4, PC, Vita) simultaneously, which honestly is nice. There's plenty of PS4/Vita games I'd love to have on the PC. I'll pick up this one for sure...

    I don't see how it's natural when you shouldn't even use one of his abilities basically ever (FtH), that seems unnatural to me. Reaper just seemed like a liability in those matches that I saw him in, often even with 2+ tanks on the opposing team the Reaper was just not accomplishing anything...

    Overwatch

    Your feels are appreciated. I had ESL up on and off all day and every match on every map that I saw it was always a McCree on both teams. No Pharahs, no S76, don't think I saw a Hanzo either (although he was super niche before anyway). With the way the meta was shaking out even Reaper was...

    More top-level players saying the McCree buff is OP, and even goes against the character design. Fan the hammer was already almost noob-trap level skill and now it really should almost never ever be used. McCree's midrange damage is just too strong to waste bullets on FtH. I have to agree with...

    I missed that. I did hear him talking about how OP McCree is on the PTR right now though, which supports my opinions so yay :P He said something along the lines of "a short-to-midrange character shouldn't be able to also pressure a Widow from almost across the map like he can right now" Every...

    *shrug* I'm just going off pics that other people were showing of Sombra teases - all looked identical to Ana. Could be they used the wrong pics I guess. Also first I've heard of the Kaplan tweets which I guess means all the other OW communities are useless

    Overwatch

    FYI for everyone talking about Sombra, Ana's outfit is EXACTLY Sombra's without the mask, and some of Ana's skins even have the mask. So it's super unlikely Sombra is another new character down the pipeline.

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    My egg tracking seems mostly useless. I've walked probably 5-6 miles the past two days doing other things, with Pokemon running on my phone, and it's registered maybe 1/3 that, looks like less though. I've tried with screen on, screen off, fucked with power save, nothing seems to help. Just...

    I mean, McCree and Hanzo were both seeing tourney play yesterday and today, but with the McCree buff I see no reason why Hanzo would stick around there. McCree is just back to being the best mid and short range hero against 80% of the roster. Soldier has a little more utility but even then...

    Yea Ana's hitboxes and lack of mobility help enforce the "support" aspect of her since you have a hard time getting good angles on enemies without friendlies eating up your shots as healing instead. On the other hand, you can just fire into a battle and be useful without aiming too hard so...
