    Loot Boxes Are Bad for Publishers, Too

    Oh, hey, I'm logged on for the first time in well over a year. (And it's my first forum post since 2015.) Sweet. I'll just copy-paste my Facebook comment, though: Yeah, personally I love Magic: The Gathering. That's a collectible/trading card game, so it's in the very fabric of its genre...

    Twitter CEO Memo: We Suck At Dealing With Trolls

    The GG Harassment Patrol was really good at finding scapegoats with one hand whilst themselves harassing people or encouraging harassment with the other.

    Spider-Gwen Preview Art Swings Online

    While that one cover that seems to be the only image a fair few people bothered to look at does a poor job at properly representing Gwen's costume, the actual look of it in the comics is pretty great. Personally, I'm at least glad the the cover isn't as sensationally terribad as that one...

    Dan Aykroyd Thinks Female Ghostbusters Are "Magnificent"

    Would be neat if Aykroyd, Murray, Hudson and a few other original cast members got Stan Lee-style cameos in the new movie. Murray could say something snarky. It'd be great.

    BioWare Gives Out Dragon Age: Inquisition's Tavern Songs For Free

    Welp, I just went and downloaded it in French and German too, because why not? Nice.

    3DS's Region Lock Cracked - Works on Latest Firmware, no Flashcard Required

    I found softmodding my Wii to remove the region lock immensely useful back in the pre-Obama days of the super-weak US dollar, but today? Living in Sweden, the cheapest and easiest option for games has for years been importing from the UK, which means the region restrictions don't bother me...

    The Best and Worst of Fate Reforged

    She, actually. May not be as obvious on the regular artwork as the Intro Pack promo, but that's how it is. :D She was my prerelease promo today and I had a lot of fun bolstering my forces with her, even though she never had the chance to go higher than Bolster 3. She was definitely one of my...

    Shadowrun: Hong Kong cRPG Tears Through Kickstarter Goal In Hours

    I thoroughly enjoyed Dead Man's Switch and adorrrrrred Dragonfall, so I'm easily on-board for another campaign. Since the Kickstarter doesn't end for another month+, I've started with a preliminary pledge of $35. (I figure my friends who're more into tabletop roleplaying could benefit from the...

    The Big Picture: Je Suis Charlie

    Yeah, I pretty much share Bob's views on this one. The killings were wrong, as murder tends to be. Full stop. No caveats. With that said, I'm not Charlie and I have no intention to defend the publication. I'll only argue for the right of its employees to live.

    Most Frustrating (Non-Boss) Enemies in games!

    Pretty sure you two need Great Bear pelts if it's for the Dalish camp. You'll occasionally find Great Bears in the northwestern parts of Emprise du Lion, but I've found that the best place to go is the northern half of the river that flows through the Emerald Graves. Run along the river and...

    Nintendo President: Shigeru Miyamoto Was a "Rival"

    Gawd, I remember when I first read about Yokoi's death and how his final years with Nintendo had been. It was so sad, my eyes just teared up. Can't help wondering if Nintendo would have been better of if they'd kept him employed and that traffic accident hadn't happened.

    Poll: Korra is over, time for general retrospect and hindsight

    Book 1 and 2 had their high points, but suffered from the love triangle (and Mako didn't even become particularly likable until Book 3), a rather anticlimactic ending for the first book, and some annoying repetition in Book 2. They also simply weren't as good as The Last AirbenderThis isn't...

    Dragon Age Inquistion players: How do you feel Bioware handled Dorian?s sexual orientation?

    I love Dorian and the additional insight into Tevinter culture he provides, including how his sexuality plays into their tradition of arranged marriage/breeding. MundaneMatt, meanwhile, is best ignored.

    Defective Samus Amiibo Sells on Ebay For $2,500

    Except it's turned the wrong way when compared to the other cannon, right? Probably because the joints are mirrored... assuming there are joints to begin with.

    Broken Age: Act 2 Pushed to 2015

    I don't mind waiting. I have tons of games to play anyway. >_> I am looking forward to the release, though. If for no other reason so certain individuals will stop complaining about the lack of a release and move on to complaining about how long it took and how underwhelming it was. Or...
