I don't know why, but after a jittery, laggy match in SF5 time feels weird for a bit. I am sadly not good enough to escape lagsville.

Yep. As someone with like 30 TOR characters this is acceptable. Hell, some games just let you keep playing all the characters without even disabling them. This is the most backwards handling of a merge I've ever seen.

It's almost worse that they're telling the players to delete them rather than doing it themselves too. Like, "pick which of your children die".

"PS If you spent money on them thanks! But you're not getting that back."

I have been playing Overwatch just to get the D.Va skin and man is this game not fun unless you're playing D.Va, and even then only somewhat.

If your open world doesn't have fast travel and no fall damage and you jump like 50 feet and run as fast as a car and then eventually gently caress it have a flying mech, then that open world is poo poo.

Speaking of polygon, I'm glad they're valiantly defending overwatch loot boxes, with compelling arguments like "the lovely recolors and charity promotion skin blizzard sold directly were way overpriced and that is literally the only other option and they can't lower the prices." Polygon is very good.

The whole of zoe1 being set in a space station and hopping between mission locations by flying in arcs across it is cool. It would be a great idea for an open world setting where you could seamlessly fly or just leap across it.

I've played a whole bunch of Quick Play for the past week and it's been extremely chill, people are generally pretty nice to one another and there haven't been too many curbstomps in either direction.

I've had some people whining when I picked a character they thought should not have been picked, but mostly people are silent when I don't remember to just mute voice chat anyway.

It's still not very fun to play, though.

Overwatch is pretty okay as far as online goes because it takes a very casual approach to the genre. It's the Smash Bros of shooters with all the items on i.e. the only true way to play smash bros.

I would say it's more the competitive smash of shooters.

My main fighting game stumbling blocks before even getting to mind games are being unable to decide on a character and still having to think about what I'm doing in a combo rather than it just being automatic.

In a scene in the Valkyria Chronicles 4 demo one character calls another a dingus. My immersion was ruined.

chumbler
Mar 28, 2010

Huh apparently dingus goes back to the late 1800s and is Dutch in origin, so anime war is even more historically accurate than previously thought. Seems it was typically used for objects rather than people, so I wonder when that transition in usage occurred.

I got the season pass for Xenoblade 2. It was alright, lot of decent stuff. The Destiny 2 one was the last one I got before that and both DLC sets were extremely light compared to the Destiny 1 DLC so that was a waste.

The Xenoblade 2 pass also gets you basically a full new game, too.
