We have, yes, but with all due respect that's not substantive to the point you're trying to make. Again, see Grand Theft Auto or Final Fantasy, or any of several other long-running series that started back in the days of primitive design. Mainline game series sometimes see their core systems...

Space Marine doesn't claim to be a Dawn of War title, though-- it would be like saying Space Marine was a better Warhammer game, two different titles under the same franchise. Even that isn't a perfect analogy, as they're not mainline titles of the same series; it'd be more like saying that...

Armored Core- God I miss this series. It was From Software's bread and butter before they were contracted for Dark Souls, but between the two one of those is obviously the moneymaker. The contract they signed with Bandai Namco when they took on Souls granted them development of at least two...

America has given the world a lot, in terms of charity, assistance, technology, inspiration, culture, social philosophy. Shout me down if you want, keep your blinders on. But it's true. I'm more leftist-- not liberal, leftist-- than most of my countrymen and well aware of our abuses...

I hope I didn't step on your thunder. I just sort of felt like I needed to contextualize the rest of what I had to say.

I suppose I can understand that, even if I'll never get it. My brother and I grew up with the franchise and have largely shared the same opinions on it since 1997, but he and I are diametrically opposed on our New Vegas takes, my father as well. Some perfectly intelligent longtime fans just...

Possibly unpopular opinion for an old-timer here, but I've honestly always felt like the main faction endings of New Vegas WERE one of the places the game could use a little polish, most especially the Wild Card ones. It would've been hard to account for every single choice and intention of the...

I feel the metaphor may have become a bit mixed here, but then war and film have always both been messy, dirty businesses, so it kind of works.

It's not inherently racist to, for instance, judge gender-discriminatory or religiously biased laws negatively. Leftists and liberals do it all the time, at home AND abroad, and catch no end of shit for the former from the conservative horde. The problem comes in when people are willing to...

Not sure how you guys do it over there, but in America one of the mindsets most often responsible for getting people into the service is "I come from poverty and don't want student loans or the selective mobility barriers baked into our society to ruin my adult life before it has a chance to...

If we're not talking about the quality of the game, but the damage it did to the franchise, I think there's actually a cohesive argument to be made that the real answer is Tactics. I loved it, but taking a step back, look at it-- it's where the stewards of the franchise decided turn based combat...

Barring any spoilers, things do take some radical departures from the originals, so you're not just sitting there watching a warmed-over redux, at least.
