I've avoided it. Except for NieR related content (mostly fanart) that's drizzled through mt Tumbler dashboard.

I would suggest watching the Clemps videos on Drakengard and NieR. You could also watch the Super Best Friends let’s play if you want to hear two “grown” men argue about muffins.
You don’t have to, but I recommend it. NieR has a pretty strange backstory.

Dang. Why didn’t I inherit the 20/20 foresight gene.

Prior to launch people could see the gameplay, but nobody could know exactly how the microtransactions would work.


Are you sure? That makes it sound like EA is an underhanded company.

Well EA does have its problems, but I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here.

Since the dawn of civilization, from the Vasa, to Apollo 1, to Star Wars Episode 1, products have failed expectations upon release.

I wish they'd make a plush jerboa from Ark.

Also, how it feels to play with friends on Battlefield.

Then it takes your entire team being above-competent for at least two minutes to retake it.

It's so funny to me because one of my friends loves to play it with me, but rages so much, and his fits are hilarious.

No wonder I am so put off by modern action games. Many video games nowadays are pay-to-win this and pay-to-win that.

So I got a very weird computer error last night. I was playing the latest update of Grim Dawn (1.3.0) and when I was playing through act 5, my computer screen turned orange and it had black lines going through it. The sound was making a buzzing noise. Have never had this happen before EVER. Restart computer, it was completely fine.
Like I said, never had problems till last night.... :?:
