D-Walker also has that silent running mode, and with the Skull machete its absolute hilarity.
I have a feeling that if it came out today it'd be ridiculously hard, filled with overly complex crafting mechanics and probably a roguelike. I generally like those things but it's great to see a game like that where your only punishment is a new face.

Some cool Duck lore discussion on this video. The Disney Ducks were always big here in Finland when I was growing up (I guess they still are). Almost everyone I knew had a subscription to the weekly magazine, the cartoons were bigger than Looney Tunes etc.
Also watching this a million times as a kid is probably why I've never cared about smoking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIdpIPgLcTU
Metal Gear (not Solid) 2. Not even kidding.
No wonder Scrooge had to be given custody. Donald was a fucking maniac. Those kids are getting emphysema.
Dan's fucking nailing the game too. Fucked up that tiger real good.

I'd rather watch more Destiny than Life is Strange. Austin, take over the stream and play Destiny.

The Donald Duck family tree posted in the comments to the bombastica is crazy.

Life is Strange ends in the same bullshit not a real choice videogame choice bullshit and should be immediately disqualified from GOTY for that and that alone.

Oh god, I can't imagine what you think of MGSV...
I take it that Donald Duck comics are not that big in America? Because they are fucking huge here in Finland. Our house started getting them basically since I was born and I've read them as long as I can remember. They have some of the best translators in Finland and I believe some words and phrases from them are in common usage in Finnish language. Also Carl Barks and Don Rosa are like gods here.
This family tree by Don Rosa is what is widely used as "official canon"

The Nordic countries are Duck family central.

Greatest game ever made and ending on a heartfelt thank you to the fans from Kojima tucked into a beautiful in-universe wrapper is an absolute delight after the decades that Metal Gear Solid has been a part of my life.
Blew my mind when I found out they aren't a thing everywhere. Except for a few movies, they are my only connection to Disney, really.

Bless your heart.
MGSV never pretends to give the player agency over the events of the plot. You're just along for the terrible, poorly maintained, badly designed ride. Games like Life is Strange, Walking Dead, and Mass Effect put over a thin layer of the illusion of choice while the same stuff goes on in the background regardless.

I wonder if Jason, Will Smith, Vinny, and Paul Ryckert featuring Baby Dan Wyckert can restart A Bunch of Dads.

Just finished Life is Strange. Amazing ending. I cried a lot.
You have to be some kind of heartless monster to be down on that ending.

Yeah I saw something similar when I worked on DuckTales Remastered. It's... complicated.
Will tackle final episode tonight.
Finished episodes three + four yesterday and
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck mannnnnn....
The Donald Duck pocket books are a series of paperback-sized publications published in various European countries, featuring Disney comics.
Yep.

spoilery stuff I won't put in this thread, sorry.
The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck is one of the greatest comic books of all time.
Absolutely! I have the Volume 2 signed by Don Rosa. Wish I had the first one with me when he was visiting my city
Don Rosa is held in very high regard in Europe. He has his fans here, but I only heard of the comics when the new re-releases started popping up online. If it tells you anything, they're not released by Disney.

Don Rosa's "Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck" is amazing and transcends what you think a Duck comic can be. I highly recommend anyone even remotely interested read that one. It basically paints Scrooge as a tragic hero who slowly alienates everyone around him in his pursuit of wealth. it's really something else.

It seems like he forgot to add "Then spend all of your time telling people you don't understand how they can or can't like it."
