Playing as Emily in 2 is really fun. You have the option to ignore stealth, go all out with your powers, and still not kill anyone.

PlayStation is probably going to still have exclusives, or at least timed exclusives, driving some sales. But this announcement may be the final nail in Xbox’s coffin.


I have carpal tunnel syndrome and mouse heavy games hurt, but playing with a controller is great. If this can easily replace a mouse and keyboard setup then I’ll be playing with it a lot, and those track pads are a big reason why.
They’re also good for emulating certain consoles with quirky controllers, like the N64.


Gameplay-wise, Rogue is even better than Black Flag. Narratively, Rogue is a disaster fueled by Shay being painfully stupid.


The first and third for sure, don’t think the second will be a significant factor.


The 360 had far less RAM than the average PC of 2010, and the engine has had a memory leak since Morrowind. I never finished New Vegas due to that, even on PC. Moving to a 64-bit version of the engine with Fallout 4 helped a lot, just because it took longer to run out of memory.


Fuck yes. A slave that takes on the slave owning Templar? Sign me up all day, I want to run into a confederate camp and crush them.
Freedom Cry, the standalone expansion for Black Flag, was essentially this concept in the Carribean. You play as Adewale, a slave turned pirate turned Assassin, and liberate plantations.


Patients also only get sent to House when nobody else can figure it out.
It’s not a retcon if it’s a different person. Most games introduce a new Link. We’re currently at twelve unique Links.


Lightfall sunsetted everything I was using that wasn’t an exotic. Completely destroyed my build.


Worse. The network went under and they finished up the show with the remaining budget, cramming the front half of what was supposed to be season 5 into season 4. They didn’t get picked up by TNT until after they filmed the series finale. After unexpectedly getting renewed, they filmed a new season 4 finale and pushed the already filmed finale back to the end of season 5. And JMS had to scramble to fill content now that half of it had already been used.


Going to be completely honest, Dexter isn’t worth finishing. The first few seasons are fun, but the show struggles to actually go anywhere until the final season, at which point it goes straight into a ditch. I think I lost any lingering respect for the show around season 6 and kept watching due to sunk cost fallacy and nostalgia for the first couple seasons. I haven’t watched the spinoffs, but the only one that’s finished so far apparently followed the same trajectory over much fewer episodes.


The first Klingon BoP in the movie was originally a stolen Romulan prototype in an earlier draft.


Babylon 5 is literally the only show I can think of with full length seasons and seasons that don’t have episodes wasted on filler, and that really only applies to seasons 3 and 4, when the showrunner personally wrote every single script. He also wrote all of season 5, but there were production issues that messed with the pacing of the front half. The stress of writing 22 cohesive and relevant episodes every year was also getting to him. Somewhere in the 10-14 per year range feels like the sweet spot to me.
That said, a season needs to come out each year, not every other year. When there’s too much time between seasons, the audience and the writers start losing track of how little time has passed in-universe and then characters start getting over things oddly fast.


I love VTMB, but the gameplay was never the highlight, it was always the writing. If the story and characters are well written and it ties into VTMB1 somehow, I’ll consider the title justified. The writing is a pretty high bar, though.


I could be wrong, but doesn’t he own the company?


This is exactly my experience with their dice sets. I got the transister dice, but I think the cat dice use the same box.


You made a comment that is typically meant with complete seriousness without any indication you were joking. PETA, for example, has an entire anti-Pokemon campaign built on the premise that Pokemon is animal cruelty.


Microsoft, Sony, EA, Activision, or Square Enix would be my guess.
It won’t work. LLMs work on probability. They’d have to be an absurdly prolific poster (probably at least a quarter of all comments present in the LLM’s training data) in order for their spelling to get incorporated and not just tossed out as a typo. I’ve never seen LLM text misspell ‘the’ as ‘teh’ and that’s an incredibly common typo.
