I don't really give a shit. As long as people aren't constantly laughing and talking over one another they could have 10 folks for all I care.

This is a really insightful and enjoyable post-mortem/interview and I'm only halfway through. Welcome back, Trick!

Nanako is a great character, but Clementine by a mile. I never felt the emotional pull I get from Clementine from Nanako. Having to make lasting decisions that will impact her positively or negatively plays a part in that, where in Persona 4 you're really just going through the story and are going to try to complete her social link no matter what else happens.

Edit: Plus with Clementine it's more of a Father-Daughter relationship than a Brother-Sister one, which is just a stronger setup for me overall.

I really liked the hints they threw into P4A for where things go from here. The next game could easily be separate, but it would be a waste not to capitalize on some of the scenarios and characters they've set up.

When you announce a game (3 games) with just a title screen and a big name movie director it's not a great look from the beginning. Going dark for 2 years doesn't really help build excitement either. Not surprised by the move, and probably smart considering what little financial rope THQ has to work with.

Justifying insensitivity because humanity does bad things that we don't hear about on top of the ones we do is bs. Those people were massacred in their place of worship, likely because of what they worship or even worse, because of what the shooter thought they worshiped. Even if all you feel is "not my problem," at least have some tact.

Great athlete, eye rolling in interviews. Phelps comes across as a much more humble and sincere ambassador of his sport.

It's ads on a website, just like the rest of the internet. The indie dream is over, duders. Makes them actual run-a-business money, and adds more value to premium memberships.

Civilization IV, Portal, Lumines.

but I want to put the pig in the machine naoooowww
