I realize Obsidian isn't known for visual masterpieces, but this looks extremely dated. The original teaser also had a much darker feel to it than this trailer. Seems a lot more colorful than I expected.

It'll be on Game Pass, so I'll probably check it out anyway, but this kind of dampened my expectations by a lot.

Totally agree on Persona 5. Maybe it's just because I don't particularly care about anime, but I just couldn't get into it. It just feels like hours and hours of boring anime filler episodes.

I'm also not a big fan of turn based combat, so that didn't help.

Might be my bubble, but I don't think disliking HZD is a particularly unpopular opinion. Personally, I really enjoyed it, but I can definitely understand why someone wouldn't. Aloy can be both boring and annoying and the story didn't really live up to its potentia. I can see why it would be difficult to get into it.

For me, the gameplay more than makes up for those shortcomings. Fighting robot dinosaurs with bow and arrow is right up my alley. Also the latest DLC for the sequel made Aloy actually interesting for the first time, so I have some hopes for story in the third game.

I basically bought the Steam Deck as a Hades machine and I don't regret it one bit, lol. Such a fantastic game. I've loved everything Supergiant has put out, but the replay value of Hades makes it one of my all-time favourites, and the Steam Deck is just perfect for quick rounds of a rogue-like.

My little conspiracy theory on this: I wouldn't be surprised if every intelligence agency in Europe knew how did it, but no one is going to tell, and we're not going to find out for years.

An attack on critical infrastructure like this is essentially an act of war, and nobody in Europe wants to escalate this conflict any more by admitting they know who's responsible.

If it was Ukraine, it would result in public outcry, and we'd basically be forced to cease any military support. If it was Russia, it's an act of war and there'd be public pressure in the other direction, maybe even enough to make us officially declare war. If it was the US, there'd be pressure for at the very least some pretty severe diplomatic consequences.

Nobody in European governments wants any of those results right now. Everybody is content to just leave it be and an article like this pointing blame at one of the three every couple of months is the only thing we'll hear on it until it gets declassified in 50 years when it doesn't matter anymore.
