I didn't expect a sequel so soon but I guess Aloy going kart racing had to happen at some point
All this reminds me: why the heck did they call it Horizon Zero Dawn. What focus group won out with that beauty.

Im playing Icewind Dale now, and Im a fan.

That just makes me think about how Jeff Gerstmann has said he actually would have rated Twilight Princess lower but Gamespot's rating system had a formula that whrn he plugged in the elements it made it higher than he thought it deserved
They rated Gameplay, Graphics, Sound, Replay Value and Reviewer's Tilt out of 10. Gameplay and Tilt were both 30%, Graphics and Value were both 15% and Sound was 10%. It was bizarre and they stuck with it for a long time.

I thought the music that got taken out of GTA4 was mainly the Russian stuff, not the majority of music
I also thought they replaced it.

I want to say San Andreas had to make changes to it's soundtrack well after the fact...

I feel like DARPA was literally funding research into "gay bombs" to psychologically disrupt enemy positions. Like I think I heard that on This American Life or something
Thats why Revolver Ocelot kills the guy

I wish studios announced what they were doing even if its far off. Having it be this big mystery doesnt really add much, especially when like 95% of the big name studios are working on a sequel to their big property.

Divinity os2 demo on console is hard as heck to see whats going on vs the original on my laptop right in front of my face. Might not be able to play it from this far away, dang
It seems like a terrible fit for consoles in a way that's hard to get around.

Tbh if you took out the weird Jesus nonsense, teaching kids how to react in shooter situations is not the worst idea in the world.
If we're talking real young kids it's a really terrible idea.

there is gameplay in that there is significant branching so watching a playthrough you will not see like fully 50% of the scenes
Couldnt you just watch those scenes on YouTube right after.

Capcom had a good run in the early days of the HD generation when Dead Rising and Lost Planet didn't have a lot of competition, Mega Man 9 doing 8 bit seemed unique and then RE5 and SF4 both sold really well. They tried to branch out by publishing a bunch of Western developed games (Dark Void, Bionic Commando and eventually DmC) which all sucked and lost them a lot of money. They really mismanaged both the Lost Planet and Dead Rising sequels which killed one franchise and has really capped out the other. Dragon's Dogma kicked rear end but IIRC they spent a ton of money making it and it didn't really work out for them. Now on any Capcom game that isn't mainline RE or MH you can realllllllly feel the budget. Street Fighter x Tekken, Street Fighter V and Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite have all been disastrous out of the gate and had huge money grabs in them and it's hard to see where they go from here fighting games wise. I remain hopeful for Devil May Cry 5.

considering capcom hasnt made an in-house fg since 3rd Strike-ish im assuming their future FG plans will continue to be: outsource their brand.

actually wasn MvCI in-house?
I mean maybe but it's 95% reused assets from MvC3, which wasn't.
