other journos don't beg either. they get keys and "write" good "reviews" and get rewarded with more keys. it's called conflict of interest.

you can go ahead and do shit like that just like every other gaming website out there.

i'll await the day your ads match the game you're reviewing.

As for my being "fucking stupid," plenty of research has already been done on this phenomenon.

in the tutorial movie, when he scrolls by "thief" class, cartman says "oh ive never seen a white one before".. makes me wonder if you create a dark skinned character what it will say

'Typical'?

Wait, CAN you be dark-skinned? I suppose in the SP world that's like Fallout with 1 INT in terms of NPC responses.

It'd be dedicated if he actually put forth the effort into grooming it instead of letting it run all wild and neckbeardy.

I think this sort of beardbashing the hipster had already happened in another thread.

Also, get a fucking proper mustache fag. Try to eat with a long stash and beard and you'll really feel like a misfit caveman living in the 21st century.

It looks a little low-interactivity, plus I don't like how the "abilities" apparently function without reference to the weapon you're using. It's sort of a Diablo 3-style lameness.
Yeah, my overall impression of the combat is leaving me disappointed, especially considering the fact that Obsidian is behind it. However, if you look at this from Obsidian's point of view, the gameplay only needs to be competent and bug-free to make this a grand-fuck-slam. The game itself looks and sounds like a South Park episode, with Trey and Matt's fingerprints all over the god damned thing. There really is no reason to try and craft a deep and intricate combat mechanic.

Token you're black; you have a bass guitar.
Yeah, but I don't know how to play it.
