Those bastards did it, they really did it.
oooh good point, have we seen his list yet?
Not yet.oooh good point, have we seen his list yet?
But he will back down quick anyway. He will desert bradly :(
Yeah if Hitman 2 makes the list at all 10 makes sense. It being so similar to 1 kinda ruins it's chances though I think.From what others have said I think Hitman 2 could be a solid number 10 so perhaps atleast number 8 or 9 at worst for FighterZ?
Nobody played that game far enough(if any) to say anything meaningful about it lol.I haven't listened to today's podcast but does Alex go on a big rant on how SOTR celebrates colonialism or something to that effect?
So it was one of those instances where they mention a game thats got a bad word of mouth, everyone collectively groans like they can relate only to find out pretty much nobody played it? Would have been better if they just didn't talk about it at all. Maybe that will be what they change for next year, games they didn't play just don't talk about them instead of relying on internet hearsay.Nobody played that game far enough(if any) to say anything meaningful about it lol.
It really wasn't that at all, they are only mentioning games that at least one of them played. Brad finished it from what I remember him saying.So it was one of those instances where they mention a game thats got a bad word of mouth, everyone collectively groans like they can relate only to find out pretty much nobody played it?

Brad was the only one that played it and he was disappointed.So it was one of those instances where they mention a game thats got a bad word of mouth, everyone collectively groans like they can relate only to find out pretty much nobody played it?

Sort of but it was also brought up to see who actually played through it since they're going game by game throughout the year.So it was one of those instances where they mention a game thats got a bad word of mouth, everyone collectively groans like they can relate only to find out pretty much nobody played it?

To reference another recent thread, the engine in Ultima Underworld was groundbreaking for its time and was a direct influence on so many games: https://www.resetera.com/threads/ul...and-why-you-should-still-play-it-today.82943/
Because you're talking about the game addressing Kratos' past as a violent God murderer. But the second an immortal God who's sent to kill Kratos gets the chance to feel again along with his mortality he decides to take on the God killer who already beat killed him.
Your throwing away any commentary on Kratos' history of violence for the sake of having a villain who's psychoanalytically crazy and even using a woman as a prop to justify Kratos killing him.
It's terrible story telling to me and no matter how much of a boner Baldur gets from Kratos beating the shit out of him it's not going to convince me otherwise. Baldur's such a nothing character.
Imagine if Baldur actually killed Faye as the last giant, he comes back for Kratos because he knows his threat, Krato's whole history is revealed to Boy which makes Boy hate him, in the fight where Balur loses his immortality he backs off afraid of Kratos, when Freya has Kratos on the ropes Baldur kills her saying that some people do things that deserve death, as he walks away boy shoots him in the head as opposed to killing a nothing character without motivation.
Freya gets to keep her volition, Kratos has to address his son following his violent past, Kratos literally kills 0 Gods in the game, boy has a genuine incentive to kill a God, Baldur's something other than comic book evil, Faye still just follows the mural/visions that give her no real agency.
Pardon the fanfic.
I'm pretty sure they're hunting him just to kill Freya. They just care about killing the giants.
breezy seems like a soft vinny
but then he'll sneak up on you with a bad take and bite you and not let go
but we love him
Hmm, it's just the time of year for people to go in on Abby huh? It's such a bad look. It's not like the rest of the crew don't interject and have strong opinions they won't back down on... I wonder why people react to Abby is such a bad way...
Oh and if I was a betting man, I'd put my money on GoW for GOTY. My best case would be Tetris!
It's the worst. The most predictable garbage gets thrown at her (and only her) for having the gall to speak.Hmm, it's just the time of year for people to go in on Abby huh? It's such a bad look.

Now that would make me feel good. That thing is high on many lists, staff and guest alike.I could honestly see Return of the Obra Dinn swooping in for #1
I assume that's the idea. Dan is for sure getting RSSeige in the top 3 there.It's a little unclear with the conversation so far, but are they going to go back and include pre-2018 games when they do the "Best Ongoing Game" category?
Very specifically to those throwing shit at herBad look to whom? I think a well spoken Abby hater is in this time of year.
That's what the rest of the year is for. Every other 51 weeks of podcasts are literally that.
Just started the day three podcast and I'm listening to them discuss Spider-man. Can't disagree with much of what's been said thus far about the combat, but does anyone know if the callers to JJJ's podcast varied depending on whether you stopped the dynamic crime events around the city or if you skipped them? I seem to remember ignoring them for a bit and people calling in criticizing me for it.
when the player is set to youtube on the site you have to hit the three dots to switch it back to the sites player.
Brad literally said that he just finished Spider-Man before Day 3 casts so lol.Don't be silly, those podcast are fastfood talk and e-mails about poop.
I think there's plenty of games that barely get covered in their weekly stuff.
No, it's incredibly mean-spirited. There is a complete picture of Arthur that's a total ass, not like it's tacked on. He's just...he can be a mean, cruel fuck if you want to be.What, is it more like if Arthur was a GTA protagonist and the game was less sincere than it is? Just quippy and biting?
Does he then side with Dutch and Micah? Because that would be an interesting twist.No, it's incredibly mean-spirited. There is a complete picture of Arthur that's a total ass, not like it's tacked on. He's just...he can be a mean, cruel fuck if you want to be.
No, absolutely nothing changes. He just talks differently.Does he then side with Dutch and Micah? Because that would be an interesting twist.
There is honestly merit to how more of the same doesn't mean it's still important. Time and place when games release are important. I loved Hitman. I like Hitman 2 a ton. But I've also been there, done that, to a degree that it doesn't make an impact like the first did.If Destiny 1 barely made it to Top 10 once, and Destiny 2 getting on Top 10 last year, I'd be genuinely surprised that Hitman 2 doesn't make it on their Top 10 at all. They all seem to enjoy it to some degree universally.
ah still says processingwhen the player is set to youtube on the site you have to hit the three dots to switch it back to the sites player.
That's pretty dumb then.No, absolutely nothing changes. He just talks differently.
It's terribly implemented.
Nah, but he is a complete dick, and his character is still written as such for the most part. But the big story beats still happen the way they happen. What I do mean is that Dick Arthur is a lot more well thought out than "make him say some shitty stuff that's just insults or ice burns" - he's legitimately a fucking dick to folks. And that works if that's the Arthur you wanna be.Does he then side with Dutch and Micah? Because that would be an interesting twist.
That's not the point though? This is a prequel to RDR1 that showcases the fall of the gang so, I do not know what you are expecting exactly.
This is what I would take as a complaint for people who want to be dick Arthur. I personally couldn't because his broad strokes is clearly not to be a dick but rather a very conflicted individual.Why would a dick Arthur care about John/Abigail/Jack though. That was a pretty important part of the later chapters

They could easily rewrite stuff where a dick Arthur sides with Dutch and Micah in the end and gets betrayed. It's not like he's alive in the original game.That's not the point though? This is a prequel to RDR1 that showcases the fall of the gang so, I do not know what you are expecting exactly.

90 hour workweeks for everyone!They could easily rewrite stuff where a dick Arthur sides with Dutch and Micah in the end and gets betrayed. It's not like he's alive in the original game.
And that's totally not what happened already?
On top of the 100 hour work weeks, or...?
