Tiffany, get me the garlic quick! There's a werewolf loose!

Even if they did release, the way they redid maps like Basra and the proposed Waki rework didn't give me hope that the devs fully understood what made the game fun.

Easy Red 2, Ravenfield, OG Battlefront 2... plenty of games out there!

Bush did 9-11 is dumb, because he would have chose a symbolic NY site instead of an economically critical one: the Statue of Liberty (aka, Deus Ex got it right).

Exactly. It's the difference between "the ring is a great power that corrupts" that the reader can draw parallels to their own experiences with, and "ring = nuclear bomb, Isengard = No Man's Land" like it's a slide puzzle with only one right answer.

A work can be deeply personal and reflect your beliefs without having to be strictly allegorical.

By now, people hopefully understand the difference between trying and failing (PT) and not caring at all (ST). George wasn't perfect, but he cared about his world and even at their worst the prequels only fail in execution.

I've noticed stuttering issues in modded Empire War, but I also run heavily modded Stalker just fine with 60-70 FPS. Wine is a fickle beast.

Ah, I've fallen for the classic blunder :)

It puts all the weight of the game being fun on the gameplay mechanics/loop. For number-crunching genres like roguelikes it works. If a Zelda game did it, it would suck. I put a couple hundred hours in Deep Rock Galactic, so I believe it can work under the right circumstances.

I heard it was because Pacers ownership is cheap :(
