    Not sure how I missed this... from 5 months ago: Some of the stuff I like that they're doing (based on the video): Differing factions in your population over time, resulting in them leaning directions politically that might not always be predictable Independent factions seem more meaningful...

    Ghost Recon: Wildlands

    Will be interested in reviews, how different the terrain gets, and how different the boss fights are. If they're all just 'go to a cabin in the wilderness and have a shootout in the basement' then blah, but I expect them to get more interesting. Especially if later on enemies start using...

    Not sure it's public, but that kind of stuff is being worked on. One of the New Horizons guys I follow tweeted that it was something he was working on a month or two ago IIRC. I'm sure you can expect things like this to bump up in importance, and I think at the presser there was some...

    Marvel's Iron Fist

    Everything with Luke Cage and Cottonmouth was great. Once it moved away from that, blah. Not a big Kung Fu fan, probably the most skeptical for Iron Fist, but none of these characters have been very interesting to me before the Netflix shows and they've all been able to win me over to some degree.

    Episodes feeling a bit less disjointed, really liked #3, but they've all been great. Better looking personality FX post-pilot too.

    Factorio

    So I'd heard of this game, even read a bit of this thread at the time thinking it wasn't for me. Boy was I wrong. Really got the itch now, and we beat it with 6 people in 20 hours at a LAN this weekend. What a game. Just now seeing the Factorissimo mod mentioned in the last page or two...

    Yeah but you can buy Link a shirt w/ a Nintendo logo on it, so they're good. That seems more like something you'd see in the Mario game, rather than Zelda.

    How did the Pixel updates end up going on Verizon? Same day as the Nexus devices? I'm paying $60-90/mo w/ Fi, $80 including the line fee is nice. I'd use bit more data if I knew it was unlimited. Maybe go back to a multi-line account w/ my wife. If updates are no longer shit and they get the...

    I thought this too until I saw a proper comparison at Best Buy once. Not many seem to have them setup, but the extra depth the curve gives you actually looks pretty nice with a direct comparison, and hard to appreciate otherwise. Not that I'd ever recommend anyone get one still, but I see the...

    After the first few months of quality releases, I'd call the Humble Monthly Bundle probably the best deal in gaming, up there with EA Access. I can cancel tomorrow and keep my stuff, so I'd put it above PS+ at any point in it's existence, and higher volume of games.

    Allowing screenshots to be your background is great too. Probably PSN name change away from satisfying most of the complaints w/ the platform at this point. Really nice update.
