    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Most single class challenges go like this 1) tedious slog until you get past Piscodemons 2) cruise through rest of game by rushing class change and doing fiends out of order

    I also want to say VT2 had significantly more content at launch for 10 bucks cheaper.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    It feels like im playing a game developed by a studio that is brand new to the genre rather than a studio that has worked exclusively in the genre for the last 8 years. Fatshark has a lot more passion/enthusiasm than they do competence/skill/integrity.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    First impression is pretty mediocre. Like if they had actually done nothing more than just reskinning VT2, it would be an improvement.

    Stellaris

    It frustrates me when devs see the natural optimization of gameplay as an issue. I would say that long range strategies tend to dominate combat in the majority of strategy games, Stellaris actually already did better than most by delaying the range advantage until the late game. Pretty sure...

    It says an Art Director is one of the Co-Founders of Bit Reactor, can't find any information on who the other founder is but in addition to whatever their own plans are, EA immediately tapped them for a Star Wars game so it must have been a pretty major exodus of talent.

    The decision to go forward with this tripe instead of sticking with X-Com is probably what caused the X-Com dev team to quit Firaxis and form their own studio.

    This is the game that most likely cost us X-Com 3. I will never understand what possessed them to try and build a triple A game with a licensed IP and center it around a core game mechanic that thrived in casual/indy games.

    Probably the most bought and paid for that reviews for a Firaxis game have ever been. Gonna pull out all the stops after how much of a disaster this has been.

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    What was the point of Lucas going back and re-editing the entire Young Indiana series and including a direct reference to it in Crystal Skull then?

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    Would be kinda fucked up to pass the hat on to a god-daughter when he snatched it away from his biological son before he could try it on. Also why invent a god-daughter instead of just using one of his canonical descendants?

    Who said anything about a single play? The Falcons playcalling was monumentally terrible the entire second half, and especially the fourth quarter. They got pushed out of field goal range on two separate drives by calling passes when they should have been running the ball, and another drive...

    Well the Falcons had one of the best QBs in the league that season, the Ravens just have Lamarrhea. Not really a good comparison. *edit* also digging into that roster reminds me, the day after the biggest choke in Super Bowl history the fucking 49ers signed one of the architects of that choke...

    So that dude who murdered JuJu ended up with a 6.6k fine. DK Metcalf argues with a ref over what was probably a blown DPI call and gets a 30k fine. I know fines are based (partially? entirely?) on player salary and the dude who killed JuJu is a nobody but it still looks pathetic.

    Box vents don't have flashing. You can either spend a few hundred dollars (possibly more) to have someone replace those shingles and install the box vent correctly (best guess from that one picture @Kithani posted is that the shingles are cut wrong) or you can spend ten bucks on a tube of...

    In fairness it has been just a color by numbers shonen most of the time up til now with the occasional crazy epic moments like All Might vs All for One, Deku vs Overhaul, or Endeavor vs High End. Season 6 has been something else entirely.

    I don't dislike the game, but there's something about the gameplay that I find deeply dissatisfying but not in a way that makes me want to stop playing.
