As are several additional hands, by the looks of it. And a few... testicles?

Not gonna lie, a cat taur whose upper torso is just more cat is inspired.

So it's no longer enough to wait for reviews before deciding whether to buy or not, now you have to wait a few months longer to see whether the devs add crappy features they held back to deceive the reviewers. That's just fucking fantastic.

I don't mind the wait, but I do mind the Denuvo DRM.

Sean Murray may be riding that high and lost track of the lesson he should’ve learned

Oh hell no. He learned his lesson very well, that being that you can lie through your teeth, sell unfinished garbage, spend a decade implementing a fraction of what you promised, and become one of the most beloved studios in the business as a result. He's doing the same thing again because it worked like magic the first time.

Looks more like Christopher Lloyd to me.

Well, kinda. Yes in the sense that it makes people's blood boil, no in the sense of being poorly thought out due to being hastily formulated. It's been twenty years, I've had plenty of time to think about it.

You're not wrong, but if you want to use policy to regulate business models that exploit dumb consumer choices, there are way bigger fish to fry than videogames.

Or going further back: Remember Star Wars Galaxies?

The game that was shut down less than a week before Star Wars The Old Republic released? You're not wrong about the other stuff, but this one definitely wasn't just a big patch.

I recently replayed Q2 and I found it... decent. Alright but not amazing in basically all respects. Just like I remembered it. I hate the fact that enemies have collision until their dying animation is finished, that was a constant annoyance. Quake 1 got it right, so I haven't got a clue why they screwed it up in the sequel.

At first I thought, "Oh cool, they're showing what the game used to look like before they reveal the new graphics." But that is what the game looks like...? I mean, the before and after comparison footage looks completely identical, doesn't it? It's October 1st, not April. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
