Though generally it's just because I think female models look cooler, unless it's a game with boob armour or something. Then I pick male for the cooler looking armour.

I always do both. First playthrough as dude, 2nd as lady.

I'd totally dig Space Marine on PS4, or a new 40K shooter like it. RPG's and strategy titles are cool, but being able to run around as a Space Marine in 3rd person and shoot shit is hella cool, and I'd love to see more of it.

I tend to play females in games when there's customizations options.

For some reason females characters get all the good clothes and accessories. (This is especially egregious in series like Pokémon, where the female characters can have 2x as many clothing options as the male characters)

I liked it too, but it could get a bit repetitive and needs some more polish. Hopefully the second game rectifies that a bit.

Based off of the gameplay video, it looked like it.

So even Riot Games is jumping on this launcher bandwagon. Which is a little odd, cause they have literally one game...

An online store that is openly and publicly reviled by everyone who uses it. No idea why and how as I tend to avoid it because of its reputation.
Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.

Their reputation is mainly due to their aggressive take on exclusivity deals, and it's worst than steam. So basically everyone hates having to use a shoddy game store that may or may not be selling information to the Chinese.

I've seen varying opinions on it from people I follow on YouTube. AlltimeGaming was kinda critical, but PushingUpRoses loved it. Seems like a game dependent on ones general temperament.

Honestly I do not understand how exclusive deals with a single sales venue are legal. Isn't that literally anti competitive behavior that should go against anti trust laws?

I've been meaning to get into Skyream finally. Having skipped the game so far I want to experience it as is with no added content. However I also know that as a Bethesda game it's going to be full of bugs. So are there any must have bug-fix mods for it like there are for Fallout 3?

If you are playing on pc grab the unofficial patch like Barb said, and you should be grand.

I'm going to be picking it up. Returning to The Moon looks like it will be fun, and the new dungeon and Vex Offensive event look awesome.

Funny enough, his has been a damn good week for me in D2 while I just kill time. I got the Pandemic (Warmind/Ikelos themed) skin for Outbreak Perfected as a little birthday gift for myself, and I finally got Skyburner's Oath, which I've been wanting for a while.

I'd actually had no luck at all getting it to drop despite grinding on and off, and I'd finally given up and thought that I just wouldn't be getting it before Shadowkeep launched, but then just yesterday I get it out of the blue from a weekly bounty. Felt good. I even had an ornament for it waiting that I'd gotten from an engram a week earlier.
