As a Black guy named Marcus living in the Bay Area, I really wanted to be impressed by Watch Dogs 2. But Jeff hit the nail on the head by saying the tone isn't right at all. Its like somebody took a few hours to look at 4chan, then Lulzsec, then Mr. Robot and wrote some stuff around that.
Also, before somebody brings up the word "triggered", Austin has said he was not offended by SP. He's gone on to say he was just bored by the lazy humor. I'm willing to believe that went for the majority of the staff as well. But I'll be damned if that bit about how even Marvel didn't let a Black guy have a superhero movie the 3rd wave didn't make me laugh.
@counterclockwork87: I love Kendrick, but nope. You can be a fan of hip-hop and still not like Kendrick. Kendrick can come across as extremely polarizing. Some fans of hip-hop, for example, may prefer Freddie Gibbs over Kendrick, two completely different styles, but Freddie is still hip-hop.
What a weird thread. I guess its alright to speculate on pricing of a game, but to outright say how much you are willing to pay for something you haven't touched or heard much about in regards of the final product? The main argument I am hearing is that because it is a puzzle game that it is not worth $60 or even $40. So what about Portal 2 which was a full priced game upon its release?
My point being, why do people hold the notion that the genre of a game should be to deciding factor on the price of a game? It should be the content, or lack thereof, that decides whether this is a rip off or not. To this point, we have no idea what the content really is and the impact it will have on us so it really is impossible to put a price on it.
Calling an editor out by name and having no actual criticism other than claiming the reviewer wanted to be different when a very well and clearly thought out review is written right in front of them is completely unprofessional (not the fun kind) and childish. This is nothing more than an internet commenter's logic blown up because their feelings were hurt and they have their own platform to shout from.
They are only good when you are drunk. So I'm not saying to drive drunk, but when you DO get there, drink an entire handle of JD before you consume them.
