After watching the Microsoft Live Event I only seen two games that interest me.

Halo Infinite looks pretty impressive and it looks like a game I would enjoy playing!

Avowed looks promising wasn't much from the trailer, so I'll have a to wait until gameplay footage comes out.

Ah yes my fave game from the Sega Pluto: DAyS entering sleep induced hallucination

And it's coming to the Xbox one as well! Great! Now I don't have to buy a Xbox series X and can focus all my money on just getting a PS5.

Also Ubisoft's CEO is a spineless asshole.

God I hate that guy. Like seriously, your links need to come with a warning. Every time I buy it and click only to hear his annoying voice.
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.

Very much so, at least in Gens 1/2, and possibly 3. I haven't played any modern Pokemon games though. Once you reach a certain point, leveling up takes forever because wild Pokemon, at least in Silver, cap off around level 35.

In many of the older games it is very grindy. The newer games introduction of xp share has done away with a lot of the grind and Sword and Shield gave us those xp candy you get from raid battles which can really help level up your Pokemon.

You can find another random event with Klansmen, its a smaller group, three or so i think and they are trying to stand up this cross in a field but they fuck it up and it falls on top of one of them and the rest run away.

People were offended by that? You can go around just killing random innocent people and that is fine, but killing the racists who murder innocents is going to far? People are dumb.

Being able to kill Klan members is a sign that the liberals have... have uh... that games are no longer...

I don’t know. I don’t have the energy to keep up with all the outrage anymore.

I'll be damned, I just found them. This area sure is lousy with these numbnuts. But hey, I'll take comically inept Klan members over those goddamn Lemoyn raiders. Fuckers ambushed me on the road with a damn gatlting gun. Cut me down before I even got a shot off. And killed my favorite horse to boot.

As an aside, I hope this new Fable is closest to Fable 2, which is my favorite of the series.
