Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is probably the worst offender of this (though it's the least of the game's many faults). by my non-scientific estimation about 90% of its boss battles do this.

I failed that test miserably. In my defense I live in Canada so I'm not used to naming more than 10 places.

Yeah I find "take a break from gaming" just doesn't work for me. What helps is to appreciate different aspect of the game (for example gameplay does next to nothing for me now, so I focus more on sto...

My favourite types of Quick Looks were "first look" type of things where the staff were launching the game for the first time and discovering what it is along with viewers (ie me).Of course the inter...

One of the most disappointing sequel of all time? It's super pretty to look at even today, but the puzzles are just bonkers nonsense. I don't remember the specifics but I remember having to look up so...

Antarctic Adventure probably. Simplistic by today's standards and very much eclipsed by its way-superior sequel Penguin Adventure (the best game Hideo Kojima was ever involved in making if you ask me)

Cocoon falls in the (perhaps lesser) category of more "exploratory" puzzle game than actual puzzle-solving puzzle game. I never got stuck or not know where to go, which is a testament to its design an...

I agree with OP's sentiment that it's pretty dry and lacks any sort of personality - though I must admit that I'm not a car guy. I was hoping they'd finally fix the 3rd person camera or add an option ...

Aren't townhall questions supposed to be about the site? Why did this turn into Voicemail Dumptruck?

Yeah The Dig might be my least favourite LucasArts adventure game.A lot of puzzles in this game are too abstract "puzzley" and don't feel natural or fit into the story (which is weird since other Luc...

Eyesight isn't a problem for me but reaction time absolutely is. 50~100ms slower than the average player if I had to take a wild stab. Some games are just physically impossible (if they require quick ...

The limited inventory thing was really baffling.Not necessarily the stringent number of slots, but rather how useless it made some items and took me out of the experience. Of course I'm always gonna ...

I get what Dan and Jeff are saying about Advance Wars series getting straight to gameplay without all the character fluff in contrast to Fire Emblem... but for me a strategy game (especially single-p...

I'm glad to see they added recipe book.That was one of my complaints in the first game. I didn't remember any of the required ingredients so I just stuck to 1 or 2 dishes I know and random crap that ...

@thebigzed said:R!I also love how we went from Dan being "I think this game is awesome!" to Jeff saying "This game sucks!" in just a few episodes.R . Well, tbf, Bakalar always says "This game sucks...

Listening to Rorie's anecdotes during production of this game instantly made this video one of my favourites in recent years.
