You listen to Shadowheart’s story in Baldur’s Gate 3 and, since you pass no judgment, fall in love.
Not that different than a lot of the relationships I had when I was young to be honest.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 1 day ago:
Dragon Age 2 got a bad rap when it first came out - because it didn’t meet the expectations set by Dragon Age: Origins and Awakening - but honestly it got reevaluated pretty quick. I don’t think you’d find many people ranking it at the bottom anymore.
Inquisition strayed even further from Origins which led to early fans looking back at Dragon Age 2 as more faithful, while the big influx of fans who started with Inquisition found it much more approachable than the CRPG style of Origins. The repeated environments are also a lot less of a disappointing in retrospect than the hollow, padded MMO style open levels of Inquisition.
I think you’d see tier lists divided in to two camps - with either Veilguard/Inquisition at the bottom for CRPG fans and Origins/Awakening for the latter Mass Effect-style fans. Well, maybe Veilguard at the bottom for the latter camp too.
- Comment on Looking for anime with at least three of the following criteria: short, 80s-90s, cyberpunk, hyperviolent 1 month ago:
Aeon Flux is the only one I can think of not mentioned yet. 90s, Cyberpunk, Hyperviolent - it’s just not Japanese, though it is animated. It’s weird, and the first two seasons are are series of shorts.

The slop ratio hasn’t gotten better from abandoning that format.
