Comment In: DPS and the Decline of Complexity in RPGs [Blog - 12/10/2012 - 10:45]

@eric r n r ncorrect ...

@eric r n r ncorrect me if I 'm wrong, but I was pretty sure that DPS numbers in Diablo 3 were not related to the actual damage the skills do. I think this is a common misunderstanding, since most people believe that the damage an ability does in Diablo ...

Comment In: The Inelegance of the Video Game Satire [Blog - 12/08/2012 - 05:09]

I 'm not quite sure ...

I 'm not quite sure what you are saying in the Bayonetta bit. I get the feeling you think the entire game was just a satire of hyper sexual women in games, but I would argue that the game is not satire at all. Is it campy Yes. But Bayonetta ...

Comment In: Bring on the Newbs! [Blog - 12/07/2012 - 11:55]

I agree that a revolution ...

I agree that a revolution in hiring junior talent really needs to happen, and I also think game studios are staffing in the wrong ways. I 'm seeing many high level studios over managing, filling themselves up to the brim with producers, project managers, marketing, and analysts, when some of ...

Comment In: Miyamoto wonders: Is story really necessary when gameplay will do? [News - 11/30/2012 - 09:46]

@anthony r n r nIt ...

@anthony r n r nIt 's rare, but I 've experienced a few. Most notable for me would be the game Tales of Legendia for PS2. One of the worst entries in the Tales of series from a gameplay standpoint. Tons of backtracking, tons of random encounters, a sloppy battle ...

Comment In: JRPGs & Persona 4 [Blog - 11/28/2012 - 01:37]

I love Persona 4, and ...

I love Persona 4, and I adored the opening. However, I can 't argue that it couldn 't be done better, and mostly got through it because I am a huge JRPG fan used to being taken out of the driving seat for awhile to be immersed into the world ...

Comment In: Is Game Music All It Can Be? [Feature - 11/07/2012 - 04:00]

All I 'm going to ...

All I 'm going to say about this is that the Persona 3 and 4 soundtracks are quite possibly my favorite game OSTs as well. Every piece is wonderful, including Heaven. They are different and unique, but catchy and pleasing. r n r nI can agree that the dungeon themes ...

Comment In: How Namco keeps its Tales Of RPG series fresh, 17 years later [News - 11/02/2012 - 03:33]

I 'm a huge fan ...

I 'm a huge fan of this series. It is amazing how much I keep loving each new iteration despite some of the striking reuses of content. I think the only games of the series I disliked was the first one for Nintendo Wii, the Knights of Ratosk I think. ...

Comment In: Best Tips for Building a Freelance Career [Feature - 08/23/2012 - 04:55]

Wow, great article I feel ...

Wow, great article I feel like I 'm reading this at the perfect time too since I am currently 6 months into a one year contract assignment working from home , and this article really resonated with my experience so far. My past experience has been in-house contract , so ...
