I feel like this could be great if the map was populated with bases that had AI guards. Do you go in and shoot the place up for good weapons, but give away your position? Do you try to sneak past so the guards can kill some of your competitors?
And then of course the circle narrows down to a warehouse full of boxes 20 of them have players hiding inside of them.
Really wish people would stop dumping on Abby. This was her first swing at the GOTY thing, against a swath of industry veterans that have been doing this in some capacity for a very long time, and it was a very contentious year with a lot of great games that were also great in very different ways. I think fans can sometimes forget that working at Giant Bomb is still work; it's a job, and a skill. I personally don't think it's necessarily fair to expect someone to come into something as stressful and in-depth as the GOTY discussions, after only months on the job, with the same kind of rhetorical expertise and familiarity with the give-and-take of the deliberations as the crew that have been doing this together for years.
She brought a lot to the discussion, overall. If you take issue with some of the arguments she presented or how she presented them, that's fair. But some of the comments here have a really heavy overtone of "everything is ruined forever" which is super unfair to Abby as an individual and to the team as a whole.
Was super happy Dream Daddy made it on the list. haven't played it, probably will now, but the opinions for it were so strong I really want to try it now.
They've probably been doing this the whole time and I just noticed it but I love how every other commander has calligraphy on parchment and Dan's letter is clearly made by a 6 year old.
I don't know what everyone's arguing about in the comments and I don't care but if you don't think that QL had the freshest ending you can get out of my face
