They should pay me for playing this game. Sure. Will you pay me for playing the Witcher while at it? That might get me back for a second playthrough, all things considered. Wow, this is the weakest of the weaksauce. You actually consider a second playthrough... If you played it once and hated it, good on ya. Me too. If you would play it again, you like the game. GTFO.

Depends on how much they're paying him for the second playthrough, doesn't it?

Okay, you are salty, we get it. It's dead, Jim. I know you really want to shut me down saying anything that criticizes the gaming media. You have them on such a pedestal, it's pathetic. And, in the same breath, you reserve the right to mercilessly make fun of people who liked this game and mercilessly criticize the developers for making said game. The gaming media generally sensationalizes and frequently misleads and their articles are stuffed full of opinion rather than fact. Many of them are mostly targeted rants designed to make some appearance of being humorous. Just like you claim about developers... If that's all you expect from them (low-quality sensationalism), that's all you're ever going to get from them. It's the same for goose as it is for the gander. Still haven't gotten over how you were wrong I see.

The gaming media is the pillar of all news agencies and can do absolutely no wrong and receive absolutely no criticisms whatsoever from the reading public... yeah, right.

When I get back to Andromeda I won't have to pop the disc in anymore. Yay. I'm playing through DA again right now, among a few other games, then I'll return to the ME trilogy and back to Andromeda. Seriously though the not having to pop the disc in is nice. I have a two year old who hits the button all the time. I just can't go totally digital either so this is nice. Also yeah I subscribe to the vault despite EA being poo poo heads.

I also enjoyed the sequel, even though it was full-on hack-n-slash. Those stories I found compelling, because I was a serious Star Wars nerd. Now, I am resorting to finding a book. My god, what have we come to?

The gaming media is the pillar of all news agencies and can do absolutely no wrong and receive absolutely no criticisms whatsoever from the reading public... yeah, right. You didn't criticise. You lied about a journalist because he was reporting news you didn't want to be true. You questioned his credibility and professionalism. Others were far worse than you, so there is that. I don't recall you saying people 'should go Batman on this shit'. That's my personal favourite.

Where did I say I'm considering a second playthrough? I get the urgent need to projectile vomit whenever I remember my time playing it. But if they were to pay me for it... I might just pull up a vomit bucket, roll up my sleeves and get enough alcohol to forget it afterwards. Depends on how much they're paying him for the second playthrough, doesn't it? Ring-a-ding-ding, we got ourselves a winner!

Others were far worse than you, so there is that. I don't recall you saying people 'should go Batman on this shit'. That's my personal favourite. If you "don't reecall me saying" that... it's probably because I didn't say it. I'm not prone to making Batman references because I've never played the Batman games and I haven't watched a Batman show in years (probably last was when George Clooney played him). Your post makes absolutely no sense. Now, if you think I said that... everything I posts is still in the articles section of this forum... so go back, find that post, and clip it here... and I will acknowledge it. I did question his professionalism and I still contend that he has behaved unprofessionally... his actions subsequent proved it. His credibility?... I clearly said he could be right but that he had done nothing in his story to cause me to believe he was right and that there were ways he could have improved on that - i.e. by actually quoting his source without revealing his identity. I also indicated that he hedged the story such that no matter what happened he could say he was right... because he said clearly that DLC was cancelled... but that management could always change their minds. I said that made the article "none news." I stand by that. There is a preponderance of none news in the gaming news media. Some one else answered that post by saying it was because the developers were so reluctant to release news. I said that overtly criticizing the developers at every turn probably makes them even less forthcoming. I also stand by that notion. There is a lot that can be done to improve the situation... but it's not all on the developer's heads. Some of it goes to the media changing what they do and print and how they print it. Some of it goes to the fans themselves... who are overtly focused on laying blame and mocking rather than discussing means for making said improvements. With that, I will now leave this site for the third and last time. Have fun with your games. Time will tell what happens.

Wrong thread title for old news (MEA included in Origin access). Not much else to see here. And here I thought I could recommend the game for free to friends of mine. Disappointed.

Do.people really need the media to validate their opinions? Why are you so scared from the media then? Insecurity much? No one is talking about the media in particular, but how of a whiny bunch of fools some you looked after Jason was obviously proven right, but hey - let's butthurt over some screenshots, nice shift of focus. You still were painfully wrong.

Yes he wound up being right...kind of...but there was plenty of evidence at the time to suggest he was dead wrong.

He already had legit points you opted to ignore because you're one side only. Turns out, he was right, you were delusional, and it's no shame to admit you were wrong. People took his article at least in consideration because they're reasonable and are aware of his credibility, unlike a small portion of blind BioWare fans that are happy taking fictional paychecks from them while dismissing everyone that don't. That crown is still in the oven, ready to be eaten.

You still were painfully wrong. and that he likely couldn't have had the information that he said he did. Which i still doubt he did. Yes he wound up being right...kind of...but there was plenty of evidence at the time to suggest he was dead wrong. Normally I'd agree with you. Game journalists are often ... well, I think everybody knows the state of gaming journalism. I make an exception for Schreier because, for example, every time he predicted something about Destiny or Destiny 2 he would be proven right. I said it before, but it's obvious Jason has some quality contacts that are willing to talk with him. In June of last year before E3 Kotaku/Schreir said that Destiny's new expansion would be called Taken King and let you fight Crota's dad, Oryx. They also had a ton of other details: kotaku.com/leak-destinys-new-expansion-is-the-taken-king-out-sep-1709972043
In October Kotaku/Schreier said Destiny would be adding cosmetic microtransactions and getting rid of the DLC plan, instead giving out quests/events (NOT DLC) for free. kotaku.com/sources-destiny-will-get-paid-cosmetic-dlc-and-free-ne-1734800399
Kotaku/Schreir also published the long infamous story that we've all read by now, and it explains just about everything behind the making of Destiny: kotaku.com/the-messy-true-story-behind-the-making-of-destiny-1737556731
So when Kotaku/Schreir says Destiny 2 is delayed (http://kotaku.com/the-great-destiny-malaise-of-2016-1754495561), I think it's true. I bet they'll say it tomorrow at the Activision finance call. Just wait and see.

Funny when the skeptical ones were people like you who agrees with anything MEA positive and only that. The game got the reception it deserved. Cut the Illuminati conspiracy bullshit, that's from Deus Ex. You're better of serving likes than spitting nonsense with no basis.
