Writers really out here writing up moral arguments against playing Shadow of Mordor because of "Orc slavery", like my man have you read LotR

 

lmao what

 

Orc Slavery Made Me Quit ‘Middle-earth: Shadow of War’

enjoy

 

I remember that stuff going around when the first game came out too.

 

it's also been a thing on some podcasts I listen to lmao

 

Definitely not something I’d have a personal issue with, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a valid reason for someone to not enjoy the game.

 

For an individual person it's valid, yes, because you obviously can't pick what triggers you and what doesn't, but not as a subject for multiple articles and podcasts intended to make other people feel bad, because if you look at the source material it's really a nonsense argument. That's just me though.

 

cmon vice you can do better than this. this reeks of clickbait.

 

Just because it’s in the source material, doesn’t mean you have to be comfortable with it. I think it’s an interested and worthwhile point for people to bring up and mention, I haven’t seen anyone go beyond the fact that suggest they aren’t comfortable playing it.

 

See maybe that's it, I have heard stuff that goes beyond that on some podcasts

 

I only heard Brad on GB mention it briefly, and he didn’t seem that worked up about it.

On a different note, it looks like a few Odyssey reviews are trickling out? I saw a 10/10 out there.

Hoping to get my hands on a Switch by tax return time at the latest.

 

It was just revealed today Gen 3 is coming to Pokemon Go this month, so there will be plenty of new shit to catch.

 

My favourite gen. Might be time to get back into Pokemon Go for a month or so

 

Whaaaaaaat. I have legit never heard that one before.

 

Phoenix 2 is one I play a lot of. It’s a top down bullet hell game that moves kinda slowly (only one stage per day) but it keeps me pretty occupied

 

I guess Sonic is collaborating with Hooters?

In Japan yes

 

Thoughts on Ghost Recon Wildlands after about 5hours this weekend:
- Game is beautiful. The world is awesome and interesting.
- Gunplay is fun and varied. I enjoyed how the enemies didn't feel "bullet-spongey"
- Map is way TOO BIG. Navigation is a nightmare. Cars are a pain. Events are too spread out. Takes 10 minutes to get ANYWHERE.
- Feels like Far Cry. Not Ghost Recon. Definitely was not expecting it to be THAT Far Cry, but man it was.
- Menus are so fucking hard to read...like laughably hard to see.
- Upgrade system makes no sense.
- Lots of fun solo. I think they took some good pointers from the issues with the Division and corrected the majority of them.

Will most likely buy the game after I get through a few of my others games. I really liked it.

 

I also, I admit 5 hours in a game this size means almost nothing, but

 

there are some jokes to be made here, but I'll leave them to the imagination.

 

Yeah..... wrong thread bud.

 

Anyone playing Evil Within 2?

I'm on chapter 3 atm.

 

Haha! I always laugh at others for doing this, and now I am guilty myself. Too funny. My bad.

 

How's Shadow of War?
