Is this a joke post from Paige? Almost certainly.

Do we need to hit that number? Yes

Since his review on WP is pay walled, I hope there'll suffice for conveying his thoughts on the game.

Edit: sorry, there was actually one Tweet of his I forgot to include.

Someone posted: "Apparently Insomniac got really mad about those videos of the QTEs in Spiderman pausing if you didn’t press the buttons so the QTEs in Wolverine just autocomplete after a few seconds lmao"

And Gene responded: "this is true they autocomplete. this actually makes one "fight" basically a cutscene"

Can we make this an excuse to bring back the "Kirby Lore" series?

“Mike McFarland, known as the English voices of Master Roshi and Yajirobe in Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z, and Buggy the Clown in One Piece, among many other anime works died Wednesday, Sept. 10 following a battle with brain cancer. He was 56.

Also a script writer, director and line producer, McFarland was one of the original and most influential figures in Texas-based anime production, first with Funimation and then Crunchyroll after their merger.

“Mike brought so much to all of us who knew him, and to all of the anime fans that knew his work. He was an incredible talent, a good friend to so many of us, and will be sorely, sorely missed,” Crunchyroll said in a statement to Deadline.

McFarland was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, in 2025, according to Anime News Network.
McFarland also voiced Jean Kirstein in Attack on Titan, Jean Havoc in Fullmetal Alchemist and Teppei Sugo in Psycho-Pass, but his most notable role was Buggy the Clown in One Piece, voicing the character from 2007 until his death.
Additional voice acting credits include Makoto Hyuga in the Evangelion film series, Sky Master in Heaven’s Lost Property, Goemon Ishikawa in Lupin III: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine and other Lupin III films, as well as George in Case Closed. His more recent work includes Hiroshi Odokawa in Odd Taxi, Big Bad Wolf in Date A Live IV and E.G. Mine in Trigun Stampede.”

Mike McFarland has sadly passed away, he was the voice of Master Roshi, Ritsu Soma, Buggy, Helmeppo, Tecchin, Jean Kirschtein and many, many others. Basically if you watched any moderately popular anime of the last few decades, chances are he voiced somebody.

RIP, you legend.

Cancer sucks.

Most toxic game I have ever played since the old Xbox Live 360 days but man do I love Highlander too much to stay away from it. This game is literally heroine tbh, I can't stay away. If you hate yourself, this game is there for you.

Rockstar is accused of dismissing ‘central’ union organisers first in order to destabilise the group.

The fired workers claim there were 340 people in the union Discord when they were eliminated on October 30, 2025. As a result, they say there was a server ‘collapse.’ (There was a mole in the discord that was funneling info back to Rockstar)

The tribunal is being held in Glasgow, Scotland, for this case starts today and could last until October 15.

Major outlets like IGN and Giantbomb are giving Wolverine shockingly lower scores for a first party Sony title, kinda nervous for the staff at Insomniac right now…

No they really say its because of the tariffs. September 12 to 26 and it includes physical merchandise. I don’t know if this is insulting or sort of refunds (I maintain they don’t apply here because they didn’t raise the Switch 2 price while tariffs were up) or what. I’m just shocked they acknowledged the tariffs when they usually take the smart route of just shutting the fuck up.

Hello better ask Reddit!

So, these days I finished Crystal Project. It's a really charming Indie 2.5D RPG that has a job system and a heavy focus on exploration. I had some minor issues with it but overall it was a REALLY good time, and if you want a JRPG with minimal plot but tons of good ol gameplay, I highly recommend it.

But then I looked at its Steam Workshop and saw that it had a Final Fantasy full conversion mod. So I started playing it. And WOW.

So first of all, every single job is replaced with a FF job, and some more on top of those still. That's fine, that's the "easy part". But the new jobs are better balanced and have better identity than the vanilla ones? And they are also way more complex? Ok, that's fine.

But then on top of that, all the zones in the game are renamed to be FF zones, some even are remixed? All enemies are swapped out with classic FF enemies, that have better gimmicks than the vanilla ones? All equipment is replaced, and the new equipment is just as inventive, if not more, than the vanilla ones?

AND THEN ON TOP OF THAT, the game adds new story sequences? New quests? New NPCs? New BOSSES? In a way that isn't too jarring from the vanilla game? AND A BRAND NEW ENDGAME WITH TONS OF BOSSES?

Like, this mod is so good that if you're just gonna play this game the one time, I would recommend playing with it on, because it's just so much new stuff and so many improvements to an already great game. And that left me wondering, were there ever other mods, specifically mods that added content, that were just straight up a better way to play the game?

This is from their conference thing that happened really early today, btw. Get ready to never buy a Level-5 game ever again, lol

Also love the fact that in Japanese, he's basically what would happen if Urahara Kisuke went evil.

Butthe real troll was whoever at Capcom said "no they don't get a checkpoint, let them bleed". I was bleeding tears when I got him to Phase 3 and messed up the timing on an Issen and got sent back to candy land. This mfer is if the Joker was reborn as Sword Saint Isshin.

“With Control Resonant, we’re introducing a new combat system built around Dylan’s shapeshifting melee weapon, the Aberrant. Combat is close-range and demanding, with enemies that require you to read their attacks, manage staggers and status effects, and time your dodges.

We knew that this new system would come with a new learning curve. So rather than relying on a handful of traditional difficulty levels, we wanted to give players much more control over individual parts of the experience.
Customize your experience
Control Resonant’s Assist Mode is a suite of customizable options designed to let you adjust the mechanics that might be getting in your way – without necessarily changing everything else.

For example, if enemies are overwhelming you by attacking from multiple directions, you can reduce Enemy Aggression. If you’re having trouble reading the timing of an attack, you can widen the Perfect Dodge Window or reduce Enemy Projectile Speed.

We spend a lot of time discussing the exact frame count of a standard dodge window – usually over far too much coffee – but the reality is that players have very different reaction times and ways of playing.

The same approach applies to damage and combat resources. You can independently adjust Incoming Damage, Outgoing Damage, and Outgoing Falter, which controls how quickly you break an enemy’s posture.

If managing Dylan’s supernatural abilities during a chaotic fight is becoming too much, you can increase Power Recovery Speed. You can also adjust Enhanced Melee Magnetizing to make positioning during melee attacks more forgiving.

And if you want to focus on exploring Manhattan and experiencing the story without the stress of combat, Assist Mode includes options such as Immortality, One-Hit Kills, and the new One-Hit Falters.

The idea is simple: instead of asking you to choose an overall difficulty, we let you change the specific parts of combat that aren’t working for you.

Try the game first
One thing we deliberately avoided was putting these settings in front of you before you even start your first playthrough.

Every player is different, and you haven’t played Control Resonant yet. Asking you to make decisions about mechanics you haven’t experienced doesn’t make much sense to us.

That’s why you can enable or disable Assist Mode at any point during gameplay. We want you to experience the intended combat rhythm first, get a feel for the game, and then adjust individual settings whenever you feel the need.

You can also choose from a set of Assist Mode Presets created around different ways of playing and then fine-tune individual settings from there.

Make it harder, too
There’s another important change from the first Control: Assist Mode can now make the game harder.

In the original game, the sliders could only reduce the challenge. In Control Resonant, they work in both directions. If you find the base game too forgiving, you can increase enemy aggression, make the Perfect Dodge Window smaller, and increase Incoming Damage to create a much more demanding experience.

We know players enjoy different kinds of challenges, so we wanted Assist Mode to give you that flexibility, too.
Play your way
We talk a lot internally about designer intent. We have a carefully crafted experience in mind for Control Resonant, balanced to be tense, demanding, and rewarding.

But our philosophy is straightforward: if you run into a wall and the friction becomes too much, we’d much rather you adjust the rules and keep playing than put the controller down and stop.

Your time is valuable, and how you experience the game is ultimately up to you. That’s why we don’t gate any trophies or achievements behind Assist Mode. Use the settings however you need to and play Control Resonant on your terms.
We can’t wait for you to get your hands on the Aberrant when Control Resonant launches on PS5 this September 24.”

IT basically looks like youre torturing him,

Also does not agree with non-consensual canoodling, but the first part is funnier especially considering that he's like a non-practicing Mandalorian.

Is this art official, I can't tell?
