I'm glad this wasn't the last episode because it feels like you guys were checked out for this one. I understand if you want to talk about stuff besides the game during the shooty gameplay, but you guys were barely paying attention the cutscenes and just straight up skipping dialogue. At that point, why even record this video if you don't want to do this feature? And that's putting aside the audio issues when you could have just punted this recording until you have them fixed. I've enjoyed following this series and would have been interested in what the followup would look like, but if this is a preview then just don't bother.
@niko_of_death: why is the creator of the gamergate board on 8chan still allowed on giantbomb? https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/josephbernstein/gamergates-headquarters-has-been-destroyed-by-trolls
@jeff@benpack is this the kind of userbase you want on giantbomb?
The voice actor you guys were talking about is David Lodge. He does indeed appear to play a character called Yarrow in Anthem. I assume that's probably the grizzled veteran that was mentioned.
It was an extemporaneous comment made during a video. Do you really think a G.D. essay is an appropriate level of response? You bring up nuance as if Abby was intending to start a debate rather than pretty much stating a factual point that there's some cleavage in this game.
As someone who loved the original games on the DS, I really dislike the look of this collection. I realize you can't just blow up an old 240 × 160 GBA game to HD, but the highly vectorized look in this collection just doesn't do it for me.
Case 5 of the first game would make a good playdate. It's self-contained enough that it can be played out of context.
They want to be debated, engaging with them like they have a valid point is not the way. The only thing to do is to call out nonsense for what it is and move on.
