People want the Lara with attitude back, and the classic outfit is a good way to signal that that is what they are going for. I doubt they are going to jettison all the lessons of the Survivor Trilogy because the next game coming out, Catalyst, is explicitly going to try and merge the Classic...

The actual resemblance of Angelina Jolie to Lara Croft was never particularly strong. Did not seem to get in the way of her popularity.

I totally forgot that the irony in my argument is that Barbie and Ken were named after siblings, XD .

You're not just old, you look like the Crypt Keeper.

When I first heard about this it sounded weird to me. It still kinda does. But it makes more sense I think when you stop thinking about Barbie dolls as just dolls and instead as storylines. Autistic Barbie is autistic in the same way that Ken is Barbie's boyfriend and not her brother. There is...

I mean Waller-Bridge being in charge certainly must have produced this look so it is a good first sign.

Seems like a pretty good approximation of Lara Croft. This is the most accurate classic costume we have ever seen I think? And the expression on her face makes it seem like she is ready to bring the classic attitude as well.

The motivation for my question was about energy efficiency. Generating a new, unique result to every query with AI, no matter how simple and straightforward, seems like it could be horrifically energy inefficient.

For those of you who are more informed about the particulars of tech than I: when I Google something and there is an AI overview at the top of the page (a feature I never turned on, but I guess never turned off either?) did it actually generate this result on the spot or does the "Google AI" at...

Personally I loathe absurd difficulty spikes. They ruined Shadowrun: Dragonfall and Yakuza: Like A Dragon for me (weird coincidence that those both had dragon in the name). And also kind of Ori and the Blind Forest.

In the last two weeks I have played 144 hours of Hades II. Unfortunately my controller joysticks are also having problems and I am not entirely sure how much longer it is going to be viable even though I want to get to 100% before I stop.

I was thinking actually that the show that might have given us an idea of what happened in between Blip Out and Blip In was Y: The Last Man. But ironically it had the misfortune of falling apart due to COVID.

The Blip would never fade into history. It is not like the USSR or COVID at all. It is more akin to The Flood, the one attested to by every culture on Earth, that can trace itself back to the end of the Ice Age. People will be talking about The Blip until there are no more people left to talk.

Fallout 5 really needs to feature the annexation of Canada a few years prior to the Great War as a major plot point. Given <redacted world news> I feel like they are just doing the satire aspect of Fallout wrong if they forego that opportunity. I want ghouls who still consider themselves to be...

I have been playing Hollow Knight, and it is a beautiful game and I can see why it is so beloved. But dear God there is just so much backtracking - even for a Metroidvania!
