I didn't like it at all. Felt generic in the ways the NSMB games do, and limited in scope.

Even Mitch McConnell is done with Trump.

Lindsay and Ted are the two major high-ranking holdouts. Something seriously wrong with both of them - or they're making horribly miscalculated political moves.

Let it go already. I used to LOVE SoA growing up but it's doesn't need a sequel or a revival. Besides I doubt Sega could deliver a quality game based on fan expectation anyway. The regular battle system was a a slightly worse version of Grandia too. Ship battles were cool though.

I would at least like an HD port

The young one is overjoyed. Ratney is happy but occasionally has a "I'm too old for this shit" vibe when Smokey pushes the envelope. Smokey has so much energy and wants to play all the time.

Rest in peace to the wonderful brown rat who sacrificed his own life to save the white one when he was sick.

The white one became depressed so I decided to integrate the 2 month old rat into his cage early, and the white one was immediately overjoyed.

Having a smartphone that legitimately doubles as a full tablet is so useful. while the folding mechanic itself is arguably a gimmick, what it actually allows you to do transforms how to use your phone in ways that makes it significantly more useful.

Atlas weapons in BL1 were awesome, but they were extremely rare.

Jakobs really boils down to what kind of enemy you're facing, because their general lack of weapons with elemental effects makes shielded / armored enemies kind of annoying. Unarmored humanoids/animals are usually one-hit-kills, though.

Maliwan is the opposite - great for breaking shields/barriers/armor but not great on enemies themselves. Having a 1-2 mix of Maliwan / Jakobs is a great way to finish off complex enemies.

Torgue boom explosion lol

Side note - I do genuinely like COV's "no reloading" gimmick

I never understood why people liked 64 so much personally. It was cool messing around in the castle but the actual levels feel so empty and lifeless. Though tbf by the time I played much SM64 I had already played banjo kazooie which imo is much more polished

Banjo-Kazooie was a much better game in nearly every way.

But Mario 64 pretty much set all the rules that BK refined, to be fair.

I passed off the criticisms as being unwarranted back in the early 2000's, but in retrospect it's pretty obvious that the game doesn't have the same kind of polish that Mario 64, Galaxy 1/2 and Odyssey have.

If they ever add SoA Legends to the Switch I would buy one just for that.

I used to own it on Gamecube but sadly got rid of all my Gamecube stuff about 10 years ago. I wish I hadn't.

I briefly played the GameCube version, but most of my experience is from the Dreamcast version. Not sure there's a lot of differences other than the extra "Evil Blue Rogues" stuff.

I even did Pinta Quest on the VMU

Well it runs like total ass on consoles. It's just a poorly optimized game compared to today's standards.

Although for what it's worth, it runs at 120(!) fps on PS5 and Series X

Granted, at 1080p, but that's still pretty great.

People have been calling for an optimization patch for BL3 since day one. They always said "we're working on it."

I'm curious if it ever came.

I realize a laptop GPU, even a high-end one, isn't gonna miraculously run games at 60fps in 4K. But given how relatively non-complex the game looks, it's super weird that I can't get a consistent 60fps even at 1440p.

I felt the same way when I first started playing BL3. It gets old fast trust me.

One thing I noticed is that due to how Mayhem Mode mechanics work, you can set it to Mayhem 10 and then do Arms Race, where the difficulty by design doesn't change, yet the weapons do.

As soon as I beat the game I got a Mayhem 10 Plasma Coil and basically won the game, more or less.

My one major complaint with the game is that it is unusually demanding on PC hardware.

Don't get me wrong - it's a nice-looking game, but I should get more than 70fps at 1080p on a 2080MQ

I can't even hit 60fps at 1440p and 4K is like 30fps

I bought the Ultimate Edition since it has both season passes, and TBH BL3 is much better than I had been led to believe. The shooting / guns in particular are a big step up from BL2.

Tour typical western doctors basically just throw tests and meds at your symptoms and dont offer any sort of constructive feedback or strategies for the underlying causes.

Your typical alternative med doctor has zero knowledge of physiology and wouldn't know an "underlying cause" if it hit them in the face.
