    i for one like my idea

    that the last level takes place in a volcano

    and after beating the last boss, you see a finger falling from some cliff higher up

    with your wraith-like speed you grab it out of the air, and realize that around the severed finger

    is a ring

    smash to late title card

    Shadow is like 60 years before lotr tho

    Well, it's one of the lesser rings, it's just that this volcano is like Makeout Point for flinging magical rings into lava.

    Note that 3 out of 4 announced playable characters in Hyrule Warriors are women. I wonder how many unannounced playable characters there are and how they'll affect that ratio.

    there is also art of link and zelda fighting next to a lady with what is probably a spell book. so yeah, there's probably going to be a few original characters and that's probably where they are going to round out the male character numbers.

    Also maybe Ravio?

    I was going to hold off on getting a wii u until black friday, but this $50 wii trade in offer from gamestop is really tempting

    on the other hand, I could probably give my wii to my parents and ask them to just give me $50...

    so in shopping around for video cards there seem to be two promotions running. AMD will give you 1-3 free games including stuff like tomb raider, sleeping dogs, deus ex, etc. nvidia will give you currency in fucking heroes of newerth. gee, thanks.

    there is a whole lot to talk about with how game development is fucked and how normalized crunch time is, but the difficulty of adding in things at this point in the production cycle isn't that relevant because it's not when the decision we're talking about was made

    the decision was made however many years ago that a woman was prototyped early and then sidelined

    Well, the decision that there would be another fully realized player character to choose from, yes. That character also did happen to be a woman.

    Like, again, yes it would have been fantastic if players were able to choose a female protagonist, but it's not like this is the first AC to end up just having one lead character.

    It appears the Mario Kart 8 Wii U bundle is sold out everywhere in my town. Also on Amazon. I wonder if they have already discontinued that model.

    I'm actually kind of bummed now because the nvidia card is the better choice. what a disconnect "hey how about a free game from this great library to test out your new card?" versus "hey here's some vanity stuff for a shitty game that will make you hate yourself"

    I thought heroes of newerth straight up died like a year ago

    not even protagonist, but co-op avatar

    this was decided, at one point early in production, to be a feature not as important as other features and something they might get back to if they have time

    that is not a great attitude to have about being able to have a female avatar in assassin's creed unity cooperative multiplayer

    I guess I'm the only one who's had frequent positive midnight release experiences?

    I've never had issues with the people in line. In general I run into cool, nice people that are excited to be there.

    When I was in line for dark souls for midnight release I struck up a conversation with a pretty fun dude in like next to me.

    Like a year later we ended up in the same Japanese 101 class and became fast friends and after work we would grab some other people we liked from class and drive around and get food and talk and play videogames and stuff.

    It was quite nice.

    the people who made HoN are making a new moba so I guess you could say HoN died
