Now I want to see a game where npcs can pick up environmental objects and use them as weapons, glitch out and have someone pull out their own skeleton to beat you with.

I've never coined a new username before, thank you! This is a bright spot in a kind of a lousy evening!

I'm looking forward to the Starfield launch, we'll definitely get some good bugs out of that.

I'm assuming the "giants launch you into space for real this time" jokes were played out years ago

NoA's Ken Lobb

And yes, if you're wondering if the Klobb gun is named after him, it was changed very late in development from "Spyder" after Nintendo legal found out there was a paintball gun with that name.

Ken Lobb, quoted on the Goldeneye Wiki posted:

They didn’t want to risk it. It obviously looks nothing like this gun, but it’s a name that’s trademarked, so they wanted to change it, but didn’t have time to do a worldwide search. The name had to be unique. So Martin said, ‘We named it after you!’ The people at Rare called me Klobb. ‘So, we named it after you, is that okay?’ I was honored. And little did I know that the game was going to do great. I had no idea it was going to be what it was. The little letter from legal ended up having a nice impact on me, personally. It was appreciated.

No word about what his reaction was, if any, to it being legendarily lovely. Like, I can't name any other gun from Goldeneye (except the Golden Gun obvs) and even I know the Klobb is lovely.

I think games should have more bugs, but only if they're funny ones. And if you turn on arachnophobia mode it makes all the bugs go away and the game play glitch-free. Just my Two Gamer's Cents.

Arachnophobia mode on Star Control 2 should turn the Ilwrath (horrible vicious spider people) good

(For reference, in-game, another species you can meet tells you that the Ilwrath were once an enlightened and benificent race, until they got just a little too good and stack-overflowed into pure evil, in an obvious reference to the Nuclear Gandhi legend from Civilization)

What do you say for "that's a feature, not a bug" when it is for a bug?

That is what you say when it's for a bug, you just have to smile when you say it
