The world's #1 source of Freddi Fish related news Currently shouting into the void

"How many genders are there" is a silly question, like "how many polygons are in a video game" The quantity depends on how much time you spend on this. Too many genders will cause lag and performance issues, too few and you can't make much sense of the world.

"This game is the next Spec-Ops: The Line" *looks inside* - Heavy handed anti-war messaging that is not nearly as deft as Spec-ops - No unreliable narrator - literally just an anti-war game which seemingly does none of the things Spec-ops did "Is it though?"

If someone made a game that was just like the scanning mini game in Mass Effect 2, I'd eat that shit up. Reading the little planet codex entries, scanning around, hearing EDI's gentle voice say "probe launched," the jangly sci-fi music. It's so perfect I just want to run a deep space mining probe

I hate when a big company does something shitty and people respond with "time for [competitor] to make a comeback" or "[competitor] is king now" The competitor would be doing the same shit if given the chance. NO corporation is your friend. Don't forget that. How'd that pic of GFWL get there?

I like the idea of gameplay that explores subjective morality. But is Fable the right series for that? The OG was a satire, not an earnest morality system. It's a game about blind idolatry I feel like Playground is missing the point and putting a really cool system in a series not made for it (1/4)

Screenshot from a gameplay showcase of the remake of the game Fable. In the image the protagonist speaks to a man called "Jack the Beggar." The user interface explains that Jack likes the protagonist because the protagonist has a reputation for being virtuous
