Love how Jeff stopped just before saying they should make a new Destroy All Humans. With the rumor of a new one coming out, I’d bet he knows that’s actually true.
Based on this comments section, either half the people here are trolling, or they have no concept of the type of content Giant Bomb sometimes puts out, and the bits and stuff.
While a Civ series would be great and something they should try at some point, this is completely character with GB, what they've been for years and the particular style of fuckery and goofiness that GBeast has had for years now. To come in here and complain about that is ludicrous to me.
I love the Vinny-Abby Dad-Daughter dynamic. It's amazing.
And the "Fuck Dan" dynamic. Giant Bomb East is such a family versus West's cynical gaming knowledge shrine. I love em both. It's nice to see how the Ben and Abby hires have helped properly define the two offices.
I just wish GB West was more creative with their content output. Kingdom Hearts and Dota just doesn't feel super up to snuff compared to Mario Sunshine and XCOM. Maybe it's just my gaming preferences but just doesn't seem like a lot of thought went into it.
Especially since stuff like Ranking of Fighters, Demo Derby and Game Tapes have seemingly been sidelined. Those were the features that worked to West's strengths.
Overall though, this is an amazing era of Giant Bomb. Keep at it!
An official Firaxis Game of Thrones Civ game with mechanics appropriate to the franchise (like House rallying and stuff like that) would be pretty amazing.
Different styles of games depending on which House you are (like Targaryen versus Lannister versus Stark for example) would be sweet
I have not disagreed with someone about The Force Awakens so much as I have with Brad. Besides Starkiller Base, I thought Force Awakens was a Star Wars movie through and through.
I have to say, all the pre-launch hate seems to have been for naught. This looks more than competent, it actually looks like good gameplay. I do think the artstyle is a bit amateurish though. Also not a huge fan of the child-oriented voice overs.
Seems like a fine game though.
Yea that's my thinking too. This seems like a very mediocre game that everyone's blowing up to say is terrible because it isn't what they wanted it to be. Which is fair, sure, but it does not look like the atrocity that you'd think it was from watching the trailers and the fan reaction.
