Tyler Malka, NeoGAF's owner, has been accused of sexual misconduct.

I like how the headline implies controversy at NeoGAF as if NeoGAF is still rele- oh god don't tell me NeoGAF is still relevant.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance is quite a good game. I am enjoying this Peasant Simulator so far.

Nothing like running down a hill, breaking both my ankles and bleeding out/drowning in a river as I try to go for help.

been playing Witcher 1 myself. I'm starting to think Geralt became a witcher solely so he could sleep with every woman he meets.

[apsham]

There was a whole generation of young gamers very upset when they found out that real women don't give out nude trading cards of themselves after you have sex with them like the women do in the first Witcher game.

[Meacon Keaton]

Well, not all real women.

Not had that yet but I found out the hard way that defending yourself against soldiers is a stupid idea. I do quite like that you have to generally approach things like you would in real life; its usually best to run away. I am going to try to play this as me, not as Hero Ser Mykel of Hackney, and talk my way out of things or bravely legging it.

Also got a nice little achievement for burning to death in a jail cell during the prologue. Nicked an apple, got caught by the guards and sent to nick then the invading Cumans burned down the village. Nice.

me and the hubby played every game in the series and the DLC. we will play this one. just maybe not right away. 

[LUKIE]

Yeah I have played every game too. I just don't know how much I will enjoy it over going back and just playing on of the other ones again.

It sounds like it's just the exact same game with a different story. It's not getting great reviews.

[OctoberRaven]

it's on my list, which is currently between 'List of Jericho' and 'Jericho's list of holds he knows' in length.

[Draevyn]

Fucking Borderlands is messing with my Twitch feed. Why the fuck is everyone playing this?

[apsham]

Meme heavy, co-op shooter that just came out today? Seems like Twitch bait to me.

[OctoberRaven]

This is why I stick to YouTube. Worst I'll get is MatPat trying to assert that Handsome Jack is actually alive and for some reason also a Siren.

Yeeeeeeeessss.

I wanted a Batman Beyond game but I'll gladly take another traditional Batman game based around the Court and the LoA. Please no Joker though. I love Mark Hamill's Joker but not ever Batman story needs Joker.

Spoiler: Joker will be in it somehow.

As far as the Arkham games I concerned, my only wish is that they would cut the open world crap and make something more linear like Arkham Asylum. 

[lanky316]

Asylum was brilliant due to the linearity of it. That's not to say the others weren't good but the focus made for a brilliant story.  I'd be curious how they'd build a story in a confined space like that again as great as it'd have the potential to be I'm not sure how they'd go about it.
