  • I actually loved parts of the story from 1. Granted, a lot of it was pointless, shallow, needed expansion, better written characters, so on and so forth. But every scene with the dragon was enthralling. A lot of what happened after you beat it was interesting. And idk how to do spoilers here so I’ll be vague, but what happens at the final boss on a second playthrough blew my mind. I had no clue, and it had been hundreds of hours since, so my jaw literally dropped.





  • I watch it annually (for the game reveals and occasional Warframe announcements, and it’s just 1 night a year). It’s just been trailers interspersed with awards, celeb cameos, and the odd live performance for a while now. Not sure why people get upset about it, apart from being mad their game didn’t get X award. It’s never gonna be the Oscar’s, and I don’t want it to be. I want Kojima to come on stage and ramble about his new game for 10 minutes without actually saying shit.

    Edit: I read the article and they make fair points. They’re right that it should give more time to creators to make an acceptance speech. And the Muppets thing is always just odd.

    Every game on display has to have the display copy opened. The game itself is kept behind the counter, the case is put out for display. It’s to prevent theft. You got the last copy of the game in the store. It socks, but that’s why. When I worked there I let people know it was the last copy and that the game had been opened but was still “new”. Gave them a chance to change their mind. Alas, corporate doesn’t offer discounts on display copies, and employees have no power to lower the price.
