Games are like dogs. There are no bad games, only bad players.

Oh wait, forgot about Sonic.

Uhhhhh

What's the worst game you finished/rolled credits on?

(games media folks, it can't be something you were assigned to review; this has to be something you subjected yourself to of your own free will)

Need a new perspective? Players can select First Person, Third Person Near, or Third Person Far to adjust their camera view in The Outer Worlds 2.

Let’s take a moment to marvel at the haunting details of Huggin’ Molly. 🕷️🕸️

It’s easy to miss the details when you’re in the middle of a fight - but the team poured a lot of love (and a bit of fear) into bringing her to life. 🔍

CDC called me for a survey in respiratory infections (RSV, Flu, Covid) and now my throat is starting to hurt. Coincidence???

I also think Red Candle Game’s Devotion game is pretty gnarly and has some Taiwanese taoist/buddhist story elements

We banned a guy on the Steam forums for repeatedly saying there were “too many women” in our game

So he flipped his positive review to negative

Still totally worth it

Reviewing the modes separately seems fine to me, especially if MP can’t really fully be tested during review period.

Other than the unbelievably stupid Haley Welch / Hawk Tuah cameo / image rehabilitation scene I thought the first two episodes of Chad Powers was pretty funny. Am I a normie

As part of our cover story, we're sharing an exclusive demo of The Outer Worlds 2's first open-world area: Paradise Island. Following the prologue chapter, this is where players become truly acclimated with the new and improved systems.

There is a Moomin puzzle out for people to work on at my work office (fortune 500 type cubicle company), so I believe this based on that circumstantial evidence.

Everywhere I go, I’m searching for the dance of light and shadow. Whether I’m hiking a mountain trail or just walking through my neighborhood, I find myself pausing to watch how sunlight filters through the trees, casting bold shapes and gentle glows. It’s light contrasts that make the best #art

A convenient value add, but makes up maybe 2% of my play time if that.

Vixolus @vixolus.bsky.social · 20d

Memory constraints for the shell probably

Only took them 15 years

Insane to me that in 2025 we still have to see takes that a 5 star or 10/10 or whatever means *literal perfection*. Any complaints or criticism means applying that score invalidates the review I guess
