This is fine. Very baby faced but it's fine.
I'm still on the fence with Andromeda. I feel like it's going to be a Mirror's Edge: Catalyst situation and it'll drop to $20 - $30 CAD by the end of summer when I'll have more time to play it.

Same here! There is just to much games to play at the moment and Biowares offerings have been kinda bland lately.

I'm going to try and grab a Switch at launch after not being particularly excited just because there are enough games coming through the rest of the year that I'm going to want when they release and I've been picking up freelance work lately
so
fiiiiiine Nintendo

Wait till you get to the cabaret game. It's even better. I've spent this week playing and have barely advanced the story.

The cabaret game has better writing than most games
That's most of Yakuza for ya. Underrated series in the West.
When I finished the cabaret stuff this weekend, I was pretty surprised how deep it goes sidequest wise and how long it is. I'm curious how far in GBeast is going to get into it
Also finished Chapter 13. MAN.
Yes.
What? Sure.playing the game for the numbers to get bigger just seems like something someone would with confidence issues would do

I want the numbers to go bigger so I can see the rest of the game, the story or to unlock new customization options for the city.

Clearly MMO's are not for you.
Goddamn you fucks I just started Chapter 6 and opened the Real Estate game last night before stopping. Now you're just killing me here at work when I just wanna go home and play it
Games are all Skinner Boxes, and clickers where the numbers go up is the purest form of it. Confidence has nothing to do with it

I'm just stunned at how THE SAME everything looks like in Andromeda compared to the original trilogy.
They have a
-Citadel equivalent
-Normandy equivalent
-planet scanning
-The same exact races for party members
-an ancient threat antagonist
-a Prothean equivalent
-same combat UI
-same menus
-same conversation wheel
I guess I was just expecting something more different. Hopefully the jump jets add a lot to the combat.

Windjammers tomorrow??
Admittedly Im less interested in the port after playing Disc Jam

After all these years thus us the best you could do?
It's a similar feeling I got when I started playing the last Deus Ex.
Yeah it's really dissapointing
Yeah, but like Jeff said, it's all a matter of how it's written.
Combat looks much better, much more fluid.
It's Bioware
I remember when saying that was a good thing
_/¯As long as ME:A has multiplayer as good as 3 I'll be there. But I'm skeptical on that too.
Also I got WAY into the cabaret minigame in Y0. I was the lord of the goddamn night for sure. Shame its payout is so much less than real estate (outside of the billions from clearing the questline). It does take a little bit of practice like learning the hand signs so I wonder if Dan will just immediately hate it.
I do hope they go back to slot car racing because some of the sidequests involved in that unreasonably deep nonsense are amazing. Also the over the top animations when you win or your car goes off the track holy shit.

A disparate band or group of people gather together to survive, and then strike back at an ancient evil that threatens to destroy everything they know. A revelation happens along the way, without really affecting things one way or another.
also every other character is constantly in awe of the protagonist who is a sexy cool badass rebel

Yakuza 0 better not get Bloodbourne'd in GOTY talks. I know East will fight for it but we gotta get Jeff and the others on board.
It deserves all the accolades it's getting.

It'll get an honorable mention and you'll like it!
What were your expectations?
It's arguably one of the biggest (maybe the biggest non-sports?) franchises that EA has and it's not going to move away too much from what made the originals so successful.
They gave Bloodborne the exact amount of attention it deserved.
To be fair, I'm sure a good part of what made the originals successful was the novelty of that world, as well as the promise of a grandiose saga that took the players' decisions into account. To me, Andromeda doesn't have that, and that's part of why I'm not planning on getting it.
Jeff seemed pretty into the beginning, he probably fell off but could see where it goes. I have hope though because of Dan. Alex and Vinny don't really put up fights, but Dan will definitely do it, and I think he can stand up to Jeff
Have Jeff and Dan actually argued about anything big on GOTY since he's joined?

With the new hire. East might be able to break through the Brad-Jeff bloc
And you can fuck anyone, because everyone is bisexual.

This isn't true at all. Bioware is actually pretty good at giving people defined sexualities.

Jeff and Rorie are literally talking over the person who played the game the video is previewing. Why.
