Thanks, I’ll check out some of those videos!

Is the original one worth playing first or is it fine to just watch a playthrough?

With how terrible the monetization practices in Destiny already are, I honestly don’t know if Sony taking over would be a bad thing

I would even say NMS is a good example of this sentiment. The game has been good for years now and has had tons of free updates. There’s a lot of people out there who just don’t care and you can see this in forums whenever the game makes news. People still show up to decry the game for how terrible the release was.

Public sentiment on the game and the studio is still pretty mixed

No Man’s Sky had a couple for me. The first time I summoned my freighter from a planet was pretty incredible

I started helping a friend with his first playthrough of Elden Ring and I’ve been completely sucked back in. I’ve got a couple new characters going now

I could see that. I loved playing them as a kid, but I never really enjoyed the tailing missions. I think they could take some inspiration from the Hitman series. I always thought that series had the assassin gameplay nailed better than AC.

That’s a pretty good theory. It still skeeves me out though

In AC: Odyssey it gave you the option to outright skip the modern day sections

Yeah, this is the part I can’t get past. WTF is Edward doing creeping around underage girls all the time?

Most likely, but The Reductress is a satire site so it could be from any time.

I can’t speak to the ripping of content, but you have to scroll pretty far depending on the subject to get a better result.

Searching “Soul of Cinder” on Google is all Fextralife, fandom, YouTube, reddit, ign/Gamespot/etc. Wikidot doesn’t show up until halfway down the first page and it doesn’t show up at all on duckduckgo.

The answer is probably to add specific sites names to my searches but I’m lazy

It’s pretty awful but it’s always the first search result for anything souls related. It’s bearable with an adblocker though

It’s the same with Nord. I have to pause my VPN any time I want to access Fextralife wikis
