I'm going to buy a crazy JRPG today. My choices are Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy or Eternal Sonata, both for the PS3, both for the same price.

Which do I choose?

I think it was Corn who said that if you want to listen to Jennifer Hale as not Commander Shepard constantly exclaiming "God is dead" while fighting the last boss (God) then lightning returns is for you.

bioshock 2: misunderstood game that's better than infinite or just straight up bad game?

BioShock 2 is actually the second best Bioshock (best is Minerva's Den). The start is pretty terrible though.

Lurdiak posted:

So apparently an expansion to Baldur's Gate... 1 came out. And it has womz and a trans person in it so big ol' dummies who haven't played it are bombarding metacritic and such sites with negative reviews because the dreaded cultural marxists have gotten to Baldur's gate and ruined it.

Incidentally, on Steam it has a pretty good critical score, because you need to actually play the game to vote on it there.

http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/269735/Opinion_The_Siege_of_Dragonspear_drama_and_the_video_game_community.php

Storms of reactionary rage tend to go through multiple phases that roughly correspond to dawning self-awareness. The first wave is pure emotion and unbridled bigotry, the next is a collective hangover where many of the outraged realize they need something substantial to hang their hatred upon, especially if they are to convince others. Thus, figleaf arguments enter the discussion. In this case, the figleaf is twofold: one, assert angrily that this is actually about ethics in Beamdog covering up the bugs in Dragonspear, and two, assert angrily that this actually about ethics in representing transgender characters sensitively...

...much of this outrage is really just about the same old same old: a particularly complaintive and possessive sect of gaming being confronted with something that makes them uncomfortable. I’ve literally posted the entirety of Mizhena’s “offensive” dialogue in this column, and because of the 30-some-odd seconds it takes to go through it, we’re on another merry-go-round of misery that is sending a clear, unsettling signal to both women and queer people in this industry...

... In a month that has seen trans people’s public presence all but criminalised in North Carolina, a similar law being mooted in Mississippi, and an actual bounty on trans women up for debate in Kansas, we in the gaming world should pay attention to what message we’re sending when we permit this kind of caterwauling in our forums and when we suggest that these people are “valuable customers” whose feedback should be listened to.

When you intimate that people like that fellow who said women like me have an incurable mental disorder are your audience, you’re sending a clear message that bigotry is acceptable “criticism” from “fans” and something that should be taken into consideration. When you align yourself or your company with these whining bigots, with their dissembling excuses and overt hatred alike, you say they matter more than the people harmed by their bigotry...

It's because they dropped the original developers halfway through the series and went with lovely Zeboyd.

It's because the original two games weren't even making their money back and they killed the series for good until Zeboyd showed up and offered to develop the final 2 games for about $113 and some change.

Thanks for the heads up, combat in the first game was terri-bad and they should have never had any to begin with. Side missions?

It's an open-world game now, so it has side missions. And tower climbing.

my favorite gamesite decided to decent into the Moral clickbate bullshit.

because shooting violent criminals/psychopaths/ wannabee fascists in time of "everything is hosed" is bad m'kay. they never did nothing wrong. we are the real badguys.

Honestly I think the game is somewhat tonedef. but acting like its magic murder simulator is bullshit.

Dude, he's talking about a game where a boss straight up goes all #blacklivesmatter on you as you shoot her to death. I think we could use some articles about it without going Raaaargh Morality Police Clickbait Raaaargh

Dapper_Swindler posted:

I said i thought it was tone def. even though i think the boss is just using to justify all the horrors the rikers do. Its more that gamesradar is doing it, I expect it from the verge or polygon/killscreen/vice/gawker. I go to gameradar for bland news and maybe some leaks and reviews. Not wannabee media criticism. The article makes it out that every enemies in the game is some misunderstood innocent that is totaly unarmed and that you then ruthlessly execute. I can easily understand people critisims about the "rioters" but really the rikers. they are all armed and shooting at you or other people.

Everyone should do it. More often.

I mean the only thing that sets The Division apart from a thousand other other coop cover shootmans is the hackneyed and tone deaf ripped from the headlines sociopolitical content. It's good that people are noticing that.

Plus you know they probably didn't get that far in the game before they had to get their original review out, so here it is in a follow up.

New 3ds has 3d that actually works if you tilt it more than a millimeter so it owns.

My son did stumble upon some videos of people opening toy boxes. Not playing with them. Just opening them. These videos get millions of views, they post dozens a week.

That is a weird rabbit hole of internet to go down.

Nah this makes perfect sense given that consumerism is all about the desire and anticipation and acquisition of consumer goods, not the actual use thereof.
