Cyberpunk 2077.

Would infinitely prefer no voice changer.

Hell, plenty of American women aren’t either.

Well my friend, it’s not that person’s nerdiness that is the unsexy part.

Bridges are so dope.

Well, I can’t speak for everyone’s taste of course, but I’m being quite sincere for my own part.

All nerds are sexy, friend!

It’s genuinely insane and I don’t know how every remotely level headed person in the US isn’t marching on Washington.

Just finished The Lies of Locke Lamora. Then had a quick listen to Restaurant at the End of the Universe. This morning, started Every Time I Go On Vacation, Someone Dies.

Gross.

Great collection.

You aren’t really refuting the conundrum presented by the woman. She is pointing out the same thing you are, but I feel like you’re not getting the point.

Trans women are too strong to be in women’s sports, implying they are stronger than cis women. Yet simultaneously being told they are too weak to be in the army, something that they aren’t even saying of cis women, implying that trans women are weaker than cis women.

The woman in the interview is correctly pointing out the hypocrisy here to highlight that it’s not logical, it’s just bigotry.

Andrew Wake 2: Electric Bugaloo

Where are you from?

Been trying out Manjaro for a few weeks.

I hadn’t read a book in years, probably a decade, when a few weeks ago my partner and I decided to pick up audiobooks during commutes and work hours. Finished a good handful already and have no plans to stop now, it’s been such a delightful addition to my days.

Just finished The Lies of Locke Lamora and highly recommend it.

Nothing I said to you was intended to be antagonistic.

As I said, I do plan to play it! I might be metroidvania’d out at the moment, my partner and I have played a crap ton of Blasphemous 1 & 2 over the past few months. (highly recommend!)

Could you cite any of them?

I think there’s a lot more that goes into a games success or failure than just reviews. I’m not entirely convinced that a wave of good reviews would financially save their studio. I also find it funny that he acknowledges that he doesn’t write reviews for things.

For my case, it’s been on my wish list for a while. I enjoyed Ori, but didn’t love it, and plan on getting around to the second Ori game eventually. But I have a zillion games to play, and right now they’re not that high on my list. But my moods change, and next month I may well be in the mood for something like No Rest for the Wicked, see it on my wish list, and finally pick it up.

But quite frankly, no review is going to sway me. I’ve enjoyed Mixed review games, I’ve loved Mostly Negative games, and I’ve disliked Overwhelmingly Positive games. Fact of the matter is I’m much more likely to look at actual gameplay videos and make a decision rather than read a written review.

But, that’s just my anecdotal experience. I personally find it hard to believe the reviews play that big of a role here. I think that success or failure comes down to a hundred different factors, and the unfortunate reality is that some really awesome gems aren’t successful for no real fair reasons, sometimes.
