    What do people want from MMO's?

    I want them to move outside of the WoW formula. There's no reason for them to be 'grab a quest, do a dungeon'. Take final fantasy 14 as an example. Even if we ignore how the combat is identical to that in wow and guild wars 1, why is there a loot system based on dice rolling? It's an archaic...

    Would You Buy A Console For One Game?

    Depends how badly you want to play the said game. Though, if you buy a ps3, there will be about 8-10 console exclusives which you'd enjoy. I bought a Wii U early so I could play Wonderful 101 and didn't regret it. I also bought a 2ds purely for pokemon. But because there were games like fire...

    Ubisoft Encouraging More Unique Games like Child of Light

    Child of Light really wasn't unique. It was an average platforming game with an annoying "this game is so artsy" theme and an annoying rhyme thing going on.

    Poll: What if "Version Exclusives" were in games other than Pokemon?

    The only reason it works in Pokemon now is because it's a remaining feature from when the games first made their debut. Pokemon games had version exclusives because it made them from single player games into an MMO experience. They were games which encouraged children to go outside and play...

    Why is rape in gaming largely ignored?

    The thing is, regardless of whether or not you say it's being ignored or not, the situations you linked to weren't ignored. They were all hammered by controversy. We're simply beyond their time now.

    Do you think the (online) gaming community is more toxic and hostile now than it was in the past?

    Yeah, it is. That's an indisputable fact. Do you want to know why? Because it didn't exist in the past.

    Why is Being Nuetral in GamerGate a bad thing?

    Because Escapist users like to feel like they're somehow important by raving on about a really unimportant issue.

    Kick it Like It's 1995 With These New Transparent 2DSs

    A really poorly written article, especially the last part. You do realize that they're releasing these for the new Pokemon games, right? And you do also realize yhat the reason they're 2DS exclusive is because there're already new Pokemon editions confirmed for the 3DS. Let's also not...

    Like PC Gaming? Don't buy from Steam.

    Sounds more like a bug. Really, Valve aren't conspiring against you.

    Let's discuss the Smash Bros. demo!

    I had to stop playing it because of the controls. The buttons are too strange for me, I couldn't play the game properly on my 2DS. Visually it's fine, it's easy to see all the characters and the FPS is good, but the controls are just too restrictive. There aren't enough triggers, so only one...

    A gay, bi-racial's take on this whole mess

    How does being gay and bi-racial give you a unique opinion? Some people call this "special snowflake syndrome". You have an opinion, which is fair, but don't imply that your opinion is somehow superior or different because of your sexual preference.

    What do you do to help you relax?

    This is the point when you know you're taking a dumb issue too seriously. You may as well be saying that you're losing sleep over the fact that some people eat cereal with water instead of milk. Or it might all be bullshit, I've lurked for a while and I've noticed a lot of migrating tumblr...
