I disagree.

 

Not all DLC is planned before a game is being made...or even has time to be made during the game. It's not like, at least in Bethesda's case, the DLC is used to unlock stuff. I do wish it was a bit more hefty, or there was more of it, but Dawnguard/Dragonborn do add a bit to the game, especially the latter. I miss the days of Bloodmoon and Tribunal like extensions but I feel like your view on Bethesda DLC is misguided. 

 

It is however, a bit overpriced (especially if you don't get it in sale.) for what it is.

Dragonborn felt bare. the world was there, but outside of quests, there wasn't a whole lot to do. 3D Dot Heroes had a whole tower defense DLC, and i love me some TowerD

I really wish I could get back into Skyrim, but I've put sooo many hours into it, and I believe I've literally done everything. I haven't found any new quests in ages, and I've been scouring the map like a madman. There no new locations, I already found all of them

Then go somewhere else.

Interesting. How fleshed out is that mod though?

 

I think the problem with most ES modders is they get too ambitious in their work. If they would just focus on making one part of Tamriel awesome, that'd be better than making all of it and it all boring.

I don't know, I haven't looked into it at all. In fact, I didn't notice until just now that it requires all DLCs, so it's out of the question (for Leggy) anyway.

It's out of the question to begin with, since I'm primarily a console gamer.

 

My PC couldn't handle Skyrim on the lowest settings, I'd wager, since it's like a 4-5 year old laptop.

With scars that show that we care a lot
In the sky we dreamt like a juggernaut
Of the things we'd do and what we saught

The universe is a cruel, uncaring void. The key to being happy isn't a search for meaning. It's to just keep yourself busy with unimportant nonsense, and eventually, you'll be dead.

The N64 was, without a doubt, the most totally radical console of all time.

http://www.siliconer...y-nintendo-3ds/

 

So basically:

 

Xseed is releasing the newest Farm Story game (the Japanese name for what we call Harvest Moon here) as Story of Seasons, since it can't release it as Harvest Moon since Natsume owns the rights to that name. Xseed is releasing it here because they're actually owned by the company that makes Farm Story/Harvest Moon.

 

Natsume is now releasing their own Harvest Moon game, called Harvest Moon, but has no relationship to the actual line of Farm Story/Harvest Moon games. Although considering their last game was Hometown Story created by the creator of Harvest Moon, this game could potentially be made by the creator of Harvest Moon...making a non-Harvest Moon Harvest Moon game.

We've made too many compromises already, too many retreats. They invade our space, and we fall back. They assimilate entire worlds, and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far and no further!

It's really hard to say. It doesn't sound fun but it is tons of fun. The story is good and the gameplay is challenging and depressing. Plus its a very unique game with nothing out like it.

The Ratchet & Clank Collection didn't have a booklet either. I think they're just going out of style.

It is the worst trend.

 

Only thing worse is when the only paper in there is like a warning. 

 

I don't think I own one Vita game with an instruction manual. And I'm pretty sure I bought them all new.

That's horrible. They always had fun artwork that let you get into the game before you got it home. Heck, flipping through the manual while your mom drives you home from the mall is like half the fun. Video games, what are you doing?
