    I don't really understand your reply because if there is a bad guy here it's Valve.

    I don't know the specifics of CS2's skin system but I know that high rarity knife skins were absurdly expensive because the only way to get them was to gamble them out of lootboxes. I say were because Valve added a way to trade up 5 of a lower rarity item into a random higher rarity item which...

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    Mustadio is easily the strongest of the "balanced" unique characters if you aren't just steamrolling every mission with the broken uniques/calc spam/god ramza/whatever. I don't remember arm shot (or occasionally leg shot) ever going out of style, aside from the fact that there's no need to CC...

    Yeah except it's Twitch so it's a pretty safe bet that it was done out of petty spite rather than safety concern, especially considering their history with mistreating vtubers. There was clearly some sort of expectation that the gifts would find their way to their intended recipients after...

    MLB 2025: Year of Ohtani, on the doorstep of an Empire

    Ohtani in 0. Basically what I'm hoping is that Toronto gets nuked/destroyed by an asteroid strike before game 1 starts but after the Dodgers have after flown there. Shohei gets held up meeting with his bookie causing him to miss his flight and is credited as the winner as the only surviving...

    XCOM 2

    My only problem with Xenonauts (but its kind of a big one) is that it's like someone said 'hey lets make a very faithful modern remaster of the OG XCom except without any of the cheese the player could use to their advantage'. Solid game but it's very difficult and a bit of a slog.

    Nobody on FiraXcom had anything to do with Phoenix Point, although you might not be far off with the autism comment because it was Julian Gollop.

    XCOM 2

    Basically the entire core of the XCom team left to form another studio during the development of Midnight Suns which is probably the main reason why there were so many problems with the game and almost certainly why Firaxis effectively abandoned the XCom franchise despite Chimera Squad being a...

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    Agrias is fine, she's just a rare example of a well balanced unique character in FFT. Meliadoul is op and Orlandu is so broken that I've done playthroughs where I leave him on the bench just to see what the difficulty is like without him utterly trivializing fights.

    Fall 2025 Anime Thread

    You aren't wrong but people mean two different things when they say filler. The traditional meaning of filler which is shit made up entirely for the anime, like 40% of Naruto/Shippuden, and then stuff that's manga canon but still feels like you're watching filler, like Season 2 of Shield Hero.

    A Better Advent 2 or A Better Advent WotC might be up your alley. Significant overhaul mods that work just fine without dependencies or balancing around any other mod. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=793861140...

    No, her usual security guy got banned during a previous Twitchcon for restraining a stalker until police arrived. Not even Twitch is stupid enough to ban the guy who stopped her from being actively assaulted, probably.

    Implies but doesn't actually come out and say it because A: if substantiated this kind of allegation would likely create the kind of problem that couldnt just be swept under the rug and forgot about and B: if she only implies it and never directly says it, she has deniability. So as scummy as...

    Twitch is also streamed on by idiots and watched by idiots. Also I was gonna make a crack about how she'd be back streaming on Twitch in a week but apparently it took less than a day? Or is that YT?

    Not that some of it doesn't occasionally come from Japan itself (judging from the recent big Nintendo/Game Freak leak the next mainline pokemon game is suddenly cranking it to 11) but the majority of it is dishonest translations from wokealizers who need to be shot in the back of the head and...

    I'm guessing the budget was roughly the same through the 3DS era and for whatever reason they didn't increase it when they moved to the Switch despite the scope of the games increasing massively, which is why Sword/Shield was janky as fuck and Scarlet/Violet was just outright slop. They still...

    XCOM 2

    It's definitely the superior mod. The original Long War fit very naturally into the campaign of X-Com whereas Long War 2 felt a bit more forced, like 'how are we going to fit our ideas and the new X-Com 2 style of gameplay together' because everyone expected them to make a sequel of their own...
