That’s a pretty accurate summation of gaming in general in the 80s. The art in the book was nearly always better than the gameplay for lots of games.

If they’d cast Gary Busey as Maul it would be a different story.
The question is whether the dislike of the character was because it was poorly written or poorly acted.
In this case I feel like Charlie was a well-written character who had a good arc (despite a touch of Mary Sue-itis) but Anne Winters’ delivery was absolutely flat.
While I like your analysis, the comment you’re responding to was referring to Pulaski’s arc, not Charlie’s.
don’t think that’s their goal at all.
As mentioned (via Tom Warren) by [Playstation co-CEO Hermen] Hulst in the interview, Sony wants to tempt PC players to purchase and play sequels to single-player narrative games on a PlayStation console.
…huh. TIL.
The last time I had to download the unifying software it was more obvious than that.
And to add insult to injury…

As one of those “older millennials” you referenced… What the fucking shit?
There’s just too much bad rep.
On the one hand, that’s not a bet I’d take since No Man’s Sky exists.
On the other hand, NMS is definitely the exception, not the rule.
Why is Barty Crouch Jr. side-eyeing Lewis Zimmerman?
Like every Conservative, he either knows fuck-all, or only has a surface-level knowledge, about art. It’s why they think a socialist like George Orwell would write books defending their ideals or that songs like “Born in the USA” are patriotic.
Holy shit, what a way to get rid of the evidence!
FTA:
As in the first game, executions are key. When an enemy is staggered, you can run up and trigger a canned death animation—usually tearing them apart with your bare hands, or impaling them on their own claw-limbs—in order to recover your armour bar to block incoming hits.
They started putting games on PC, but their plan is to make sequels console-exclusive.
I provided a screenshot as an example. Obviously I’m not going to link to every fucking bigoted comment. Those were the top three comments; two of which were useful to my point.
Note that zero of these comments are complaining about diversity
Here, let me make one bigger for you:
They “think” adding more diversity in the form of inclusion and LGBT representation would make the game worse, since apparently that point wasn’t as clear as, say, a fucking foghorn.
Do you know what people are referring to when they use that word?
Yes. “Woke” means “anything that threatens my worldview of white masculine superiority and reminding me that non-white, non-straight, non-male people exist and should be represented in art hurts my fee-fees.”
But sure, explain how it’s really about “ethics in gaming journalism”.
It’s a coordinated effort to make those bigoted assholes seem to be a larger number than they actually are. And we can blame Steve Bannon for that.
I edited my comment, but I was wrong in that it’s not the review page that gets swarmed but the comments on announcements that Arrowhead makes. Anyone can comment on an announcement (which makes sense, if [for example] it’s about an upcoming feature that isn’t out yet.)
Sorry, you’re correct- it’s not the reviews, but the comments on any announcement made by the devs that I was remembering.
The lack of mouse icon next to their names means those Steam accounts don’t own the game.
The Helldivers 2 Steam review page (edit: it’s comments on announcements) is covered with reviews from accounts that don’t even own the game begging Arrowhead to “not add WOKENESS!” to the game.
Only if you’re not a Trump supporter.
