Wait, I know I played this. I just don't remember a single part of it. I think the robot had a snarky personality?

I literally can't remember anything about this game, which is odd because I usually remember all kinds of weird poo poo about games I've played. This one is just a blank space. That kind of bland is actually a bit impressive.

I can't fathom why anyone would want to play mostly PvE games like The Division or Anthem, do some people really get that much satisfaction out of killing AI?

Empathy is hard for goons, I know, but consider that some people might want different experiences from their video game time.

pvp means you're forced to deal with every 13 year old with a jordan peterson fetish and a dream to be the next ninja or mute voice and play against something that is essentially pve only with no difficulty control

Some people have friends they like to play chill games with and PvP isn't chill.

Christ Almighty. I've seen the same fake picture of a Nintendo rundown five times now, and each time people have taken it seriously when it features "WarioWare: Shove It Up Your Own rear end" and a Nintendo Switch XL and a New Nintendo Switch.

much like last year, I continued the tradition of skipping just the EA portion of E3 by going out with my wife

by the looks of things, once again I didn't miss out on anything. laughed when I saw people say they'd give EA an F- grade solely due to bringing loving phone games to an E3 conference. Anthem sounds like a fuckup waiting to happen.

Not just that, it was a Command and Conquer phone game which added a bunch of salt to the wound.

Sea of Solitude shows that EA missed the memo that nobody cares about lovely indie platform games about feelings anymore.

That and SPORTS! 2019, knock-off Destiny and phonegame C+C means that they may be the most tone-deaf publisher in the gaming industry.

EA not putting Unravel2 or Sea of Solitude on the Switch, a system where indies make pure gold, is mindboggling

Watched the Anthem video and while it looks gorgeous (most EA poo poo does) I can see this quickly going awry in some kind of Evolve capacity wherein the mechanics and locomotion looks good in demos but then the content is just loving nothing. ME:A had the best combat and this looks like taking it to the next level so I'm hoping maybe they can capitalize on that but at the end of the day, the whole "uh it's meant to be 4player with humans otherwise it'll be tough to play" statement seems worrying. Even Destiny games could be played solo with no detriment.

Yeah, it and Unravel 2 are like the only games that were well received. Plus Sea of Solitude looks like more of a Team Ico game in design and that's a niche than can use some more filling.
