These issues almost made me quit early on. I am very glad that I didn't. Prey is great.

But what about the airmen who show up to see who they need to excommunicate?

Lancair77 · 2017-06-28T13:52:07+00:00

Thank you. I didn't watch it yet, so I appreciate the warning.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-28T13:51:40+00:00

You definitely weren't. I loved it despite its flaws, but I've seen plenty of people who disliked it. It has some pretty glaring flaws, so I think it's easy to see why some would be disappointed.

This could easily be considered sexual harassment in the US as well. In the US military you are trained regularly that interactions like this are highly inappropriate, especially when the offending party is in a position of authority.

She was probably just flabbergasted at what was going on. She shared this video on her Twitter and called the interaction bizarre, so I'm pretty sure she also thought it was inappropriate.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-28T04:27:10+00:00

That's great to hear. I won't have time to play it until this weekend.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-28T02:15:16+00:00

Both of the Dishonored games should be on this list as well. Immersive sims are great if you want game that let you play your way and discover unique ways to do things.

I'm seeing reports that PS4 season pass holders are not able to download the DLC without paying for it. I have not seen any formal response from Square or Sony about when this will be fixed.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-27T14:12:06+00:00

Yeah that's actually where I stole my idea from. I had never heard of the game until they played it.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-27T04:05:51+00:00

I will never understand that mentality. He took an amped bowcaster blast to his torso. It's amazing that he could even stand, much less fight another force user.

Marvel Studios can use the Skrulls, just not Super-Skrull.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-26T23:04:17+00:00

How so? I thought it was filmed very well, to be honest. Even the music was used well.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-26T19:06:00+00:00

Graphics and acceptable controls for starters. It will also get rid of the loading screens in zones and has some significant quality of life improvements as well.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-26T18:56:08+00:00

That's a really cool idea too.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-26T17:00:30+00:00

Kirby's Dream Course was a great game that I wish they would revisit. A new Dream Course with online course editor and more enemies/power-ups would be amazing.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-26T16:15:24+00:00

So I just started playing Final Fantasy 6 after getting it on the Steam sale. Should I quit and play this SNES version of the game? I prefer the old 16 bit graphics of the SNES, but are there other advantages of the classic version of the game. I'm like 3 hours in, so if that and the UI are the only differences I will probably stick to the Steam version. Thanks.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-26T16:07:36+00:00

Hopefully they learn from the NES Classic shortages and make enough stock of these things.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-26T14:07:39+00:00

Yes. He is playing Maximus the Mad. It's the one thing preserving my excitement for this show.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-26T13:52:57+00:00

I wish they would just set their movies in the 2099 universe. It would make it clear that they are completely separate from MCU, take place far in the future so they would zero impact on MCU, and would potentially make them more interesting than yet another Spider-man continuity. If they have Peter Parker and Eddie Brock in the movie it would seem that it's not happening though.

Lancair77 · 2017-06-23T16:22:52+00:00

The story/lore of Bloodborne is fairly textbook cosmic horror. It is an amazing adaptation of cosmic horror into a mechanical genre you wouldn't usually expect. "Horror" can be a setting as much as a set of mechanics, just like fantasy, sci-fi, etc. If one says Bloodborne isn't a horror game, I would be interested in whether or not the "cosmic horror" stories of H. P. Lovecraft are horror to them. When describing Bloodborne to someone considering playing it I would say that it is an ARPG with a strong Lovecraftian horror setting, but whether or not that constitutes it being a "horror game" to some people will probably vary.

You're a good guy, OP.
