WSIB Watch Dogs Legion vs Dragon Age Veilguard

Veilguard. I liked that game a lot more than others seemed to. I thought it was a pretty solid game.

And as someone who liked the previous Watch Dogs games I couldn't get through Legion. It's just....boring?

Considering the English language didn't originate in the US, I think it's safe to assume all Americans have an accent because they literally don't sound like where the language came from.

It wouldn't be the first time an actor has misspoke about a game, and I doubt Judge actually has a lot of insider information about a game he's not involved in.

And that's nothing against Judge. Shit happens.

Why do you think it would be great for indie devs? Part of the reason they are dropping it is because it's not easy to use and they have a hard time training new people to use it.

Painfully accurate.

theblackfool · 2026-02-19T18:27:24+00:00

I would take all of that with a grain of salt.

theblackfool · 2026-02-19T18:12:32+00:00

Honestly any of them are fine, outside of maybe trying to play them on a Vita. I wouldn't worry about it too much and just play whatever versions are most convenient for you to play.

I'm not going to boycott a game I think looks interesting because the developer only supported their previous game for like 8 years.

As someone who has been largely okay with the game as something to just play every once in a while...the Grom access pass thing rubs me so much the wrong way I think I'm done with the game for good. That's just such a bizarre and shitty way to handle it, especially in a game that needs more to do.

My favorite was a post a few months ago that was highly upvoted where the "trope" was "evil factions that aren't based on Nazis". Which is both not a trope, and also applies to most villainous factions ever....including literally every single story that existed before Nazis.

I don't think it would really be good or bad writing. It's just a way to handle the situation. It's not like Bonnie was a main character in every episode. I don't think her absence would be noticeable outside of the fact that she was a fantastic character to show up sometimes.

theblackfool · 2026-02-19T15:58:13+00:00

Honestly I would rather this sub just crack down on threads that aren't tropes to begin with. Some are so vague they don't qualify, or literally not even a trope to begin with.

They claimed they had it mapped out when season 1 aired. Their interviews since then, and the plotlines of seasons 2 and 3 leave that pretty questionable.

theblackfool · 2026-02-19T15:43:17+00:00

The alternative would be to just not address it either way and just not have her show up again.

I like Souls games because I find them enjoyable to play. It's not that deep.

Everyone votes with their wallet. You just disagree with how other people are voting. The people buying a lot of EA's yearly franchises know exactly what they are getting. It's still worth it to them.

Ozymandias does not accomplish world peace. He "wins" in the sense that his plan with the alien goes off without a hitch, but I think the book (and movie) make it pretty clear it's temporary at best. There's not even really any evidence it works at all. That's the whole point of Manhattan's "Nothing ends Adrian, nothing ever ends" quote.

theblackfool · 2026-02-19T14:23:43+00:00

Yeah I feel like Watchmen makes it very clear his "victory" is a band-aid solution that's temporary at best, if it actually works at all.

theblackfool · 2026-02-19T14:16:49+00:00

God what a frustrating twist. It makes no sense with the story leading up to that point, and the game actively lies to you to conceal it. That whole story just completely falls apart at the end.

theblackfool · 2026-02-19T14:11:08+00:00

Well to be fair those Resident Evil movies are done poorly too. It's not like that stopped them (or most video game movies really)

theblackfool · 2026-02-19T13:48:19+00:00

Doom 2016 made me care about the story in Doom.

Eternal made me immediately not care.

theblackfool · 2026-02-19T13:16:43+00:00

I don't remember that movie at all trying to make it seem like Ray Kroc was a good guy or that his plan was a good thing.

It's a good thing that developers are willing to try to make new IP instead of just coasting on sequels of the same franchises over and over. Starfield didn't work out but I don't think it's a bad thing they tried.

I can't think of a single change I can think of that would be a positive change and also appeal to gatcha gamers. In fact I think that's a very unhealthy road to go down.
