    Incline The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for Wii U and Switch

    Well, you will be able to beat the game without finishing the story. So I certainly hope that this is the case. Gotta love it when games allow oyu to do things out of order.

    Vapourware System Shock 3 by OtherSide Entertainment - taken over by Tencent!

    I am hearing a lot of things. And I like what I hear. Indeed, and it feels far too many game devs (and gamers) get it wrong. Too many AAA games are too restrictive on the player I feel, with the games being too focused on a one path or something. While throwing in the occational bone to...

    Premade vs. generic protagonist

    Self generated protagonist, is my general preference. But a few games pull off the whole premade character so well, I could not imagine playing through them as a character I created myself.

    The Fire Emblem Thread

    Considering how they reverted from some of Brawl's design choices in SSB4, despite the commercial success of the former. I wouldnt rule it out. Conquest outselling Awakening (at this point in time) is great news. But Birthright slightly outselling Conquest is not.

    The Fire Emblem Thread

    The delicious drama. Coming from this game's terrible localization. I hope Nintendo is paying attention, I have never seen it this loud before over censorship. The only good thing to ever come from Treehouse was Kid Icarus: Uprising, but even there, they hired an actual comedian as opposed to...

    Dragon Age producer is polling players on Dragon Age Tactics

    I don't see why not. The Banner Saga was the best BioWare game made in years.

    The Fire Emblem Thread

    Reviews are in. Metascore currently at 89 for Conquest and 87 for Birthright. Lol at Gamespot. Complaining about the lack of grinding in Conquest.

    Incline The Valkyria Chronicles Thread

    Here is a longer video of it, if you are willing to stomach 40 minutes of decline. No commentary though. The AI takes stupidity to a whole new level.

    Systems where attributes are separate from skills and super hard to raise are fucking dumb

    My WoW Mage with 2000 intelligence got duped by the most obvious con ever in one of the quest lines or failed to pick up obvious queues. Despite having an int score 100 times higher than he started with, he seemed to be getting dumber with every new expansion. And this signifies my problem with...

    Capcom Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen

    Hard is terribly balanced. And a lot of things will one shot you (but ONLY you since the companions are unaffected). But on the other hand, you level up twice as fast and you get showered in gold so you will always have the best equipment and plenty of buff consumables to boot. So in the end...

    Capcom Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen

    Seems like the released demo has had quite the impact on the game's sales. I wouldnt say magic attack and strength is particulary important. That stuff comes naturally with gear, and BBI gear has some insane stats on it. What is more imporant is the HP stat.

    Capcom Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen

    I really hope this PC Port sells well and is well recieved by the gaming community. If only to improve the odds of seeing a sequel, http://www.pcgamer.com/dragons-dogma-devs-on-bringing-the-2012-rpg-to-pc/
