    I'll always appreciate Dunkey for going after shitheads like Asmongold, but sucks if there's toxicity around him that I'm not aware of

    Rolled credits on Lies of P this morning. Game is so good. As much as I do enjoy learning little tidbits of lore in Fromsoft fashion, having a souls game where the story is presented a little more straightforwardly I thought was fun and refreshing. Really filled that void Bloodborne left in my heart when I finished it.

    I’m tackling that weird Italian souls game next that I can never remember the name of. Apparently it’s in the top 3 of non-from soulslikes.
    Just needs a little more time in the oven.

    I keep hearing it’s vastly improved from the demo which has me curious

    I didn't dislike the demo or anything, but the central conceit around masks was empty as they barely actually did anything. So hearing that its potentially improved definitely perks my ears up and i'll be curious what anyone thinks if they do play it.

    hm idk just watched some gameplay, maybe not... you just fight like knight looking dudes all the time and their swords and shields are always glowing some color or another. looks gaudy as fuck.

    also the drip is abysmal

    veilguard is only "tutorial writing" in the literal tutorial. content creators and youtubers have a vested interest in sensationalizing everything they think about these games and cherry picking out of context scenes (and in some cases literally tutorial scenes) for clicks. you think its a coincidence skill up's massive take down has millions of views and IGN's positive review has less than a million? cmon now

    ive also seen several die hard dragon age fans on twitter say they arent going to be making any videos about the game because of how toxic youtube comment sections are toward anyone who likes the game right now. even simple guides and class over view videos are getting brigaded and their creators are getting hate and death threats. the discourse is poisoned

    im actually starting to get further in Taash's companion quest line and there's some really touching moments as they well you'll see but spoiler its pretty nicely done and its no wonder the worst people on earth are going insane over it

    I enjoy my content from time to time, I watch some content creators but holy hell I would never be like "I won't play this because content creator x posted a video with no context making jokes about it" and it's embarrassing that people actually take that seriously and let creators make their decisions

    im just venting because this is the one place on the internet where i can actually talk about liking this game without fear of repreucssions. im banned from facebook groups and twitter right now stemming from positive sentiment i had about the game. people reported my posts because they were upset i think the game is good. its insane

    Yeah I'm saying that because I see exactly what y'all are talking about elsewhere and it's embarrassing

    It depends. Ideally, people should find reviewers that have very similar gaming interests as them and then you can get a pretty good idea on which games will be up your alley or not. This is actually much easier because youtubers aren't monoliths like IGN where it's difficult to keep track of who likes what. We only have so much time in our days to spend playing games so it can be useful.

    But ultimately, you'll never actually know if you like a game until you play it.

    The discourse and reaction to Veilguard around most places on the internet is fucking depressing. Of course i'm not talking about people who were turned off by the writing. That's totally valid.

    idk, when i see people complain about the writing and then i see the writing for myself and its just typical bioware fare i tend to get a little skeptical if those same people claim to be huge bioware fans

    A video that's very clearly for the purpose of making jokes (like let's say dunkey's video) is pretty different than a content creator doing a genuine review
