Niklas Karlsson has joined the fray in calling for the return of @giantbomb.bsky.social mugs! However, they think the mugs should come at the expense of Mike's dignity.

And honestly... they do have a point.

A mock up of the old Giant Bomb ceramic mugs that were sold a while back but this joke design features a photoshoppped picture of staffer Mike Minotti's face with the text "Glizzy Based Economy" below Mike's photo

Can you think of any games where you enjoy the story but hate playing it or even think the overall game isn't that great?

That's the question at the heart of @giantbomb.bsky.social user captainofthestars's latest list

Link: www.giantbomb.com/profile/capt...

#games #gaming #gamelist #giantbomb

A user-created list on Giant Bomb that the user has titled "Good Story, Bad Game" and they have Dragon Age II at #5, Drakengard 3 at #6, and Futurama at #7. They have accompanying text for Dragon II that says:

"At least compared to most of Bioware's pre-Andromeda/Anthem titles, DA II's gameplay trails well behind the rest, involving a lot of busywork, frequently reused assets and locations, fairly uninspired wave upon wave of enemies charging you constantly, etc. But the one area where the game is still up to classic Bioware's usual standards is in the story, which is overall rather bleak but still by far the best part about the game, and the main reason to give it a go."

It just downloaded four years of episodes I don't want.

As a longtime Giantbomb fan, I'm excited that something I wrote made Dan do a double-take.

The debug name for the move is fart bubble, so I can't take credit for the concept.

Game dev is a team sport.
