In general I also found the game pretty glitchy (and yes, it is literally required for me to ALWAYS have task manager open when playing or I risk having to reboot my computer when my sound card makes a noise like a thousand angry scarab beetles and my entire computer acts like I tore out 90% of...

Die horribly, since I'd be in Team Fortress 2. Most people aren't actually as well trained and equipped as most video games characters start out.

I really hate when people say "OMG YOU SHEEP YOU'RE JUST AGREEING WITH YAHTZEE FORM YOUR OWN OPINION!" Look, I don't have unlimited disposable income, I can't play every game in the world and then judge what's good for myself, I have to take other people's word. That said, Yahtzee says himself...

So... did the game have a plot? Was there any value to collecting anything and upgrading it? Or was it literally just a circle of upgrading to make it easier to collect so you can upgrade more? Also, on the note of visual novels, I've "played" good visual novels and enjoyed them, it's just I...

He lurks in the SA Let's Play subforum. There's a better chance he saw it there.

Woah what Yahtzee's seen the true ending of Illbleed? Maybe he watched that LP... Anyway, I saw all of Drakenguard and played the first "loop", so I was hoping he would talk more about the plot, since it seemed like it might have been spiritual sequel and end up just as insane. Apparently...

I think he must have thought it was a joke or something, and the longer it went on the less and less believable "We'll shoot you!" must have sounded.

You're right, we should listen to you instead! You have a such a sterling reputation for having an eye for quality. Or perhaps I should buy every game that has ever been published and devote 20+ hours to each of them to wait for them to be good before forming any opinions about what I should...

Out of curiosity, Comet, how many hours have you played FF13?

Am I the only one who thinks that "it gets good 20 hours in" is an insult? Seriously, without that I could imagine that it gets good later and Yahtzee was just getting through it really slow because he was distracted or something, but the fact that people who are long time FF players could take...

Final Fantasy X is the best example I can come up with, since the last couple of boss fights it is literally impossible to die no matter how bad you are. But if it had been shorter I would have been okay with it, because as far as I'm concerned, if the second-last boss was hard and then leads...

I'd say Mass Effect was trying to do that, but failed. Sure, attitudes were colour coded and put top or bottom or middle, but it was still a phrase, and half the time he wouldn't even use that specific phrase. The option would be "Yes, that's great" and he'd say "Yes, that's wonderful". That...

Shouldn't this be "average" rather than generic? Generic means belonging to a genre, after all, and since when are there genres of people?

I have a girlfriend, and here's what I've found: think of something YOURSELF. It's always far more sincere and sweet when she knows you thought of something yourself that's something you'd do and something personal to her.
