The Ubisoft model. Writing that intentionally says nothing. Hundreds of millions of dollars dedicated to anti-art.

A single day in China is enough to easily disprove this one.

For me it's not even themes. Persona 4 is just the only Hashino era game with compelling antagonists and half-decent dialogue.

A game, that despite its generally conservative outlook, simply has the juice. Too many try to square these facts.

Lol she's probably been called that for half a decade and she only just got around to googling it.

This just made me curious enough to check in on Corey Robin, who curiously remains on Twitter. Apparently, he did give a brief mea culpa at the end of a recent podcast. But I would be interested to hear him try to defend his thinking.

Shame this got associated with so heavily with online posters like McElwee because it really should be a consensus goal for the Democratic party.

The writing was on the wall for non-proliferation the second they blew up the Iran deal.

Super inconsistent, but the highs are as high as anything From has made. Majula remains the GOAT.

I don't have time to shop it, but this would make a perfect Saddam Hussein hiding place meme.

I took one stab at fighting Louis saw how much grinding I had to do and decided I had better things to do with my life. For a game with a job system, the amount of exp it takes to fill them is staggering to me.

Lol this is exactly what I did. Stopped caring about the plot, stopped caring about the gameplay.

I've been making do with a Steam Deck but I think Avowed is what's going to get me to pull the trigger on a desktop again.

It is a remarkably vacuous game. I put fifty hours in and remember nothing about it. It getting rave reviews was the most out of touch I have ever felt.

DDS2 is maybe my favorite game from them, until the final dungeon so I get it.

I'm very curious how well it works for people who are already bought into the setting from Pillars of Eternity. I never got far into those because the colonial aesthetic trappings don't do much for me.

I have had to accept they're simply never making another Nocturne or Digital Devil Saga.

Many such cases. I basically quit visual art after having my color choices made fun of so much as a kid.

Fully understand why you're not naming them, but thanks for pointing out the person who parlayed their journalism career defending gacha into a job promoting them. That remains one of the most contemptible things I've seen from a reporter ever.

A bit more uneven than Bebop, but the highs are even higher. Enjoy the ride.
