I'm a gamer, a recluse, an amateur musician, a rare writer of fiction, a left leaning atheist, pro-EU and a conflicted Newcastle United fan. Professional shit-poster. Also, I swear quite a bit.

Well, RIP games journalism. Good luck finding an objective review. It was difficult before, now it'll be near impossible.

Recently, I've been watching small Youtubers video's for reviews. It's hardly reliable, though. It's important to stay small because I'm beginning to think the larger ones aren't exactly being objective either.

I've not seen a single post on Mastodon about this. Nobody cares, and nobody realizes how potentially damaging this could be.

Robin told Batman he was thinking about pre-ordering a game. After slapping Robin across his stupid mouth, Batman explained that he should wait to see if the game is in a tested and working state before he buys it, otherwise the publishers have no reason not to release a broken game since they've already been paid.

I shouldn't snicker at diets and diet fads but I can't help but have a little chuckle at this.

'A new study has debunked the general meal plan behind the Paleo diet, with findings suggesting that some Stone Age people ate a mostly vegan diet.'

The multiverse could have, and perhaps should have, been a great new angle for writers.

Instead, it's become a cop-out for lazy writers and executives alike looking to recycle old franchises.

Use it properly, or don't use it.

You know that episode on Star Trek: TNG when Data & Geordie ask the ship computer to create a unique mystery for Data to solve as Sherlock Holmes?

Well this game aims to replicate that, in a manner of speaking.

It's not Sherlock Holmes. It's set in a fictional New York and all the people in it live their own lives, and every mystery is randomly generated, making each one a new challenge to solve. I've not played it, but it looks great.

are refunding Helldivers 2 even though it's that are being morons.

I know Steam are not without criticism, but can you tell me of one other modern company that would do this for many thousands of its customers?

I'm the first to attack companies for bad practice but I also hand out deserved praise when companies act properly and deserve a lot of credit for how they've handled this.

I only wish there was some other way to reward them as I'm already a regular customer.

I'm not sorry. The next American who tries to tell me that one of the great things about the USA is freedom, I'm going to laugh in their face.

Now, I won't lie and say I was especially interested in this game to begin with but I can tell you what kills my interest pretty quickly.

'Editions'

Yeah, jog on.

Any tips for someone trying to get into ?

I've played a few games and could never get into it. What am I missing. What do you think would help improve my experience?

The work to make this is impressive enough but the imagination, especially to think of that spontaneous track placement, is genius.

I love the little nods to the computer game in Fallout TV show. Like the hacking, amongst other things.

I fear this might mean Miggy is on his bike, which makes me really sad because for all his failings, you always get 100% from Miggs.

Are you a fan of the original Half-life?

You'll probably want to see this.
