But then how are all of the backseat marketing executives around here going to go on about how multi-million dollar corporations owned by and reporting to stockholders, are too stupid to hire analysts that don't know the difference between an unpopular female characters sales, and female action...

If you want something shorter and more complete, check out the Mistborn series. By far the coolest "magic" system, a strong female lead and a well fleshed out world. It's a 3 part "rebellion" story of sorts, in a universe where the hero lost and the villain won. If you want something more...

TV: Breaking Bad, no real competition here. Animated: Full Metal Alchemist (Both versions, but the original had a superior introduction.)

Brandon Sanderson, he can start putting out 50 books a year and they can be ten pages each and i'll still shit myself over every word. My favorite author of this generation.

Fine with "hollywood" torture, aka Jack Bower. Not a big fan of "torture porn", I don't not like it for any ideological reasons, it's just not my kind of genre. I'm not really into horror or gore either, probably similar to abominations views above. If its part of the story that's fine, but if...

I completely agree. The one thing Dying Light also does well is it has little instanced "dungeons" that are basically puzzle areas/combat areas overran with zombies and higher difficulty. The bases themselves are really easy and usually just involve cutting up a few zombies which is sad. Farcry...

I would argue its better than Far Cry 4 if only because of the parkour movement. I've really never seen better movement in a first person game. It's very natural and there were probably only a handful of times it didn't do what I wanted. When I fell off a building it was because I misjudged a...

I got about 80 hours out of the game before I finished it. Was level 24 survivor, 19 agility and 22 combat. Completed every side mission except for a few of the "find junk" missions in the first city area. Completed all the challenges and messed around a lot because the gameplay is just too damn...

I tend to prefer games that I can play on my TV while watching something on my laptop at the same time. Euro Truck Sim and Elite Dangerous are great for this. I even watch stuff during dying light, but only while im exploring in the day. At night or during quests I pause because it does get...

I honestly didn't think I would like Dying Light as much as I do, but I spent the entire weekend glued to the game. It's basically far cry has a baby with mirrors edge who grows up and marries dead island. It's fast paced, it controls well, its beautiful and it actually has a somewhat...

I've been watching it as a lets play on youtube (PHTC) because it's not quite my kind of game. I just barely made it through walking dead, where I actually gave a shit about the story and characters. The game itself is clunky and visually unappealing. The writing is completely underwhelming...

You could say the same about any kind of work that you find "problematic", I think it's more about your comfort level than the concern of what others perceive to be "art". "Gangster rap doesn't help the perception of music as a possible art form!" "Pawnstars doesn't help the perception of...

The right answer. Home theater, with or without friends. I mean, if you have a home theater. There is the entry point. I am "privileged" enough to have a pretty nice home theater. It's not high end by any means, but combined with not having to sit in a theater, deal with people in a theater...

I am personally glad it got the AO rating because maybe this will open up more discussion on the distribution of AO games. There needs to be venues willing to sell AO games if AO is going to be anything more than a "we don't like this game" rating.
