No Rest for the Wicked = sleeper hit. Deeper than any Diablo, it's got all the Souls-like dreary/cozy vibes, extremely rich character cinematics, amazing art style, petting dogs and cats, and the combat is super punchy.

Incredible. I would've looked right over it without the co-op+free weekend.

Real booms don't need artificial adoption to grow. Nobody needed to be forced to start wanting lightbulbs in their homes because they actually solved problems people wanted solved.

This is technically abuse of the bug report system. But you're welcome.

Video Game Websites in the early 00s Do you remember what video game developer websites and gaming websites looked like in the early 00s?

The internet used to be good.

Always good to remind yourself that a government can make anything legal. Asking "was this legal?" is for sure the wrong question.

It does feel like they're just kinda pointing at ARC Raiders going "we're also doing that guys, we swear!"

"in our FANTASY, this location--"
"There's a giant ship looming in the SKYBOX--"
"THE DESIGN TEAM thought we should--"

Come on guys, sell the suspension of disbelief a little? This is like reading a design document. Zzzz

There's some extremely mechanical with how they're all talking about the game. I swear the old Bungie vidocs used to describe things less in terms of "video game mechanics."

Rubs me the wrong way.

Game looks good, though!

Hey, friendly? ...

Oh, nevermind he's out of VOIP range."
