Pretty sure that is your cat now. Sorry, we don't make the rules, the cats do.

Two weeks? That's got to be a record for the shortest amount of time it took for a live service game to completely crash and burn.

Fable having this realistic art style still feels weird to me, but at least it seems like they're matching the tone of the other games.

Not sure how I feel about the art style. Varric and Harding look decent, but it felt like the longer the trailer went on the more the characters turned into something out of a stylized hero shooter. Honestly, the whole trailer felt more suited to a hero shooter than a single player RPG. Hopefully the gameplay looks better, but this was a very odd way to formally reintroduce your game after ten years of scattered trailers and announcements.

Accidents happen. Your finger slips and suddenly your game is full of Nazi symbols. Happens all the time. Also, I get the gist of Garriss's response, but mentioning that he had men and women at his house and his mother was always present just makes things sound weirder than a simple denial. Sounds like a horrible situation all around.

Hopefully this showcase is successful enough to become a tradition. It would be nice to have an indie-focused showcase that doesn't have to juggle their time between the games, advertisements, and sponsors.

Unsurprisingly the people who have had to deal with Reddit's leadership for years don't trust them. Shocking. That said I could see a lot of Redditors still buying in, just out of fear that they might miss out on the next big "get-rich-quick" opportunity.

What a breathtakingly stupid decision. Can't wait to see how it pans out for them.

Aspyr really keeps stepping on rakes with this one don't they? Rereleasing a classic like this should have been a slam dunk. It's really becoming a trend with Aspyr to have issues with their Star Wars ports, but at the same time I have to wonder if if there was pressure from Embracer to rush this out the door. When you're still desperately axing and selling off studios, rereleasing a fan favorite Star Wars game probably sounds like easy money no matter how much more time the game needs to be finished.

For all we know George Lucas might have written the most brilliant trilogy of films ever but we'll never know because he he had to film around hiring a sociopath who randomly wanted to murder children, talked about how great fascism was at picnics, and ranted about how much he hated sand.

Someone's eager to have another BG3 on their hands. Given Hasbro's recent moves it wouldn't surprise me if half of these ended up being cancelled and other half were trying to squeeze as much money out of players as possible. Hasbro thinks D&D is an "under-monetized" brand after all.

Behind all the flashy corporate speak this just sounds like EA wants a future where gamers pay them to develop content for EA games.
