Yet that's how I found it. Given how it did not exceed the size limits of this forum, I decided to use the webcomic.

Also it should be known that [quote=https://www.gamespot.com/articles/ea-struggles-with-perception-that-were-just-a-bunc/1100-6468234/]EA's feelings are hurt[/quote], which is really sad.

Stradavar Prime is way better than I expected already.

Three Madurai polarity slots right out of the box, and a pretty good crit chance and magazine size. I actually might sell Tiberon Prime because I like Stradavar more.

Decided to download D*troit: Become Human on whim to try it because it was free game of the month on PlayStation store and I already feel glad I didn't have to pay a dime for it. Or at least full price.

I personally enjoyed it quite a bit, but it is very heavy handed and clunky with its symbolism. And there are a few gameplay segments that are just fucking tedious.


Conor is best character by the way.

Oh fuck, it’s free on PS? I want to try it out just to see how bad it is- I mean play an intense interactive story by the absolute genius David Cage to learn how racism is, in fact, bad.

I forgot what an embarrassing and god awful dumpster fire Halo 5 was. Not only does the story feel like 343 just found some persons badly written fanfiction online and made it into a game, but the last level is one of the most poorly made, blatant, and obvious artificially difficult end games ever programmed by someone. All it is is the most bullet sponge enemies thrown at you all at once like turrets, elites in ghosts, those awful Forerunner construct things, and snipers in order to throw in some nonsense super damage enemies as well.

Multiplayer is a lot of fun, big improvement over halo 4 imo though i dont like the req system. Campaign is a mess bar a few good levels.

The campaign is not to my liking. Even in Halo 4 I didn't really enjoy the story, and Halo 5's is even worse in my eyes. And I never played Halo online, not a fan of that sort of thing, only couch co-op, which Halo 5 lacked. That alone killed any interest I had in buying it, really, a bit like Battlefront not having galactic conquest. The req system was icing on the cake. And not the good kind of frosting, the kind that tastes like someone poured sugar on a napkin.

Clearly best reason to invade someone in BB is because they left beckoning bell on and went AFK, and you got summoned by them 3-4 times in a row while they were AFK.
