Same. I'm surprised how little people talk about it considering how much of a splash Sorry to Bother You made.
Not to out just how old I am, but I kind of did this in high school. I was one of the only people in my grade that could type well (about 60 wpm, nothing crazy), so I would type everyone's handwritten essays for quick cash. It did not net me six figures, but maybe that's because I went to high school with a bunch of farmers and paper mill workers' children and not wherever Cuban sends his kids.
I missed this game when it first came out, but my child heard a lot about it at school so we got it for him and I saw it was co-op so I was like, "cool, a game we could play together." Holy shit do I not understand this game at all. I beat all of base Elden Ring solo, no on-line help, but I die within the first ten minutes of being in this game. I'm guessing it's just something you have to be properly wired for or something and I am decidedly not.
On the old Chapo subreddit, the sub was made private for like a day or something as a bit. A very angry person made a lengthy text post that was titled something like "Closing the Sub as a Bit Was NOT Ok"
Happy Father's Day.
Don't know about the source of the tweet, since he took the account down right as discovery began for this case, but here's info about the case and deposition: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/elon-musk-didnt-want-his-latest-deposition-released-here-it-is_n_66133d2ce4b0d81853f9a766
OK, I looked up the Wu thing and now I'm even more confused. Might be officially getting too old to keep up with this type of stuff.
Tough being a RETVRN guy these days if this is the barrel they're scraping the bottom of.
I am a basic RPG nerd, so my favorites were:
- Pathfinder: Wraith of the Righteous
- Baldur's Gate 3
- Super Mario RPG
- Sea of Starts
I also really enjoyed Outlanders as a city builder/strategy game.
I had fun with the gameplay of the base game, but it is boggling they have a cyberpunk game called Cyberpunk and there's almost no cyberpunk in any of the narrative.
The second fake dagger just casually being brought up after Rook escapes the prison screams late addition to the script after game was already in production. Makes me think that a lot of the ending was changed fairly deep into the run of production.
I have no other big thoughts on the ending. The Solas-Mythal stuff didn’t bother me too much, but I agree there was too much tell and not enough show. The memories we play through in the crossroads seem really underutilized as character building moments and then watching the regrets unfold after completing those memories seems odd. Why not have us play through the regrets?
The quasi-retcon of Flemmeth and Morrigan also seemed just kind of tossed in by having it be just a quick convo in the crossroads. Which might explain why so much of the Solas plot feels so disjointed as well. They were likely building the plane while it was in the air.
Overall, I agree but I didn’t make me all that upset. Was honestly just happy to have another DA game after 10 years. I have other quibbles with other parts of the game and the more YA tone of it rather than the bloody dark fantasy of earlier installments bothered me more than some of the bumbling to Solas’s arc.
