the ambient fear of Getting Yelled At

i wasn’t expecting the immediate ramp up to sans level ‘you have to learn every individual attack one at a time because you are going to instantly die otherwise’

also ignoring that, while he's obviously A Main Guy, he's not the sole writer on any of those games

great ace attorney might be the best ace attorney

i like phog just for how much of a random chump he is. why does he ask if we're having a 'bro moment' every ten seconds in combat. the power of winning by default until i get a single more interesting 4th party member

more games should be constantly dictating to the player exactly how much of their monitor they’re allowed to use

honestly i really like Lin so far and she’s funny otherwise, that bit’s just so overplayed
comment in response to post
i did not mean that as a ‘gotcha’ i just found it annoying and don’t have the full context of the game to judge what they’re going for

how tatsu should have clapped back
comment in response to post
this is my first experience with xenoblade X, i dont love Tatsu or anything but it genuinely just feels like Lin being insanely racist towards the first friendly indigenous space person humanity has ever met lmfao

thank you this immediately drove me insane

the character arcs are one thing but i feel like it would be actively suicidal for them not to do anything to the drag show

suikoden devs: hey did you design that chainsmoking duck character we asked for fumi ishikawa: sure did boss, really fucking sexy, just like you wanted suikoden devs: thank you for remembering we wanted him to be real fucking sexy

like the only legit girl-dating game i've played is Magical Diary: Wolf Hall. gotta get past it being a harry potter pastiche but it has genuine stat-raising, weird obscure hidden events, likable characters with decently in-depth romance routes! i. don't know any others. amagami got an english tl?

people often blatantly lie on the internet for comedic effect
comment in response to post
it's indefensible, and it's still amazing how many people are racing to blame the 'cheaper Chinese dev team who will do a worse job' like the core game that people like, wasn't already made by Chinese people inb4 they lay off the core Chinese dev team next week i guess
comment in response to post
the game was made by a group of Chinese developers who are still there. this was an American support team that was fired. this is still inexcusable, to be clear, but the headline is very misleading
comment in response to post
this was an American support branch, the game was primarily made by Chinese developers who are still there. (this is still unjustifiable bullshit, to be clear, but I do not like the way people are blaming 'cheap Chinese labor' when the game they liked, was already made by Chinese people.)
comment in response to post
yeah, laying off an entire support team like this without warning is inexcusable but the core dev team is Chinese and wasn't fired, the headline sucks
comment in response to post
laying people off without warning is inexcusable but this seems like a weird angle to take when the core dev team was literally already Chinese
comment in response to post
fwiw they didn't lay off their core chinese dev team, 'just' an American director and team that was supporting the game's launch. still sucks to lay these people off without warning when they're not needed anymore, obviously!
comment in response to post
yeah, they didn't lay off their core chinese team. this is still awful but they laid off 'a director and his team', (American), not the entire dev team
comment in response to post
i was interested in the first game of that until i realized it’s very, uh, deliberately in that space
comment in response to post
i think resi 4 is riiiiight on the edge, and then 5 and 6 double down even further on its pure action elements and are some of the least-liked games in the franchise
comment in response to post
good clarification ty, the point where i checked out for good was when i saw they fired Varric's writer, so i had those details mixed up
comment in response to post
(not meant as a gotcha) - isn't the firing or departure of basically every remaining original member of the DA creative team dire even by Bioware standards? i wouldnt doubt that Bioware management culture or w/e could be a nightmare on its own, but that seems like something specific to blame EA for

I DIDNT EVEN SEE THIS WAS ANNOUNCED
