It would be better if they played no games and just watched videos on YouTube.
Is this your first Dick?
lol
Those two sentences could sum up both every Philip K Dick novel and just about every Philip K Dick adaptation. I think the closest they have got is A Scanner Darkly and I didn't like either the book or the film, so you know they did a good job.
What about if they play through old demo discs

Maybe they'll beat the game in time for the game's anniversary (February 20th)

You may now check the "Jason plays a boring game for way too long" box on your UPF bingo boards.

yeah if you don't want to give a fuck about waypoint it is very easy to
it's not like people constantly talk about it in here or anything
You should hit up the subreddit next on your grand tour, lol.
I'm not the biggest fan of waypoint but it's pretty easy to skip eps you don't like.

Dunno about Jessica, but from what I played of MH it's fun. And by this I mean I spent hundreds of hours playing it somehow... ohmygodwhat. Though seriously, it's a good fit if you like trying different builds--MH is all about collecting and levelling the heroes for various benefits. There's enough gifts and rewards going around that you can get heroes at a steady clip. (Unless something has changed, mind.)
It's not Diablo 2, Path of Exile, or Grim Dawn-tier or anything like that, but it is pleasant and without a crushing feeling that they want you to spend money on something. The only real F2P issue is inventory space, which is really a matter of figuring out what's worth keeping and what's not. Note that if you're really enjoying the game, getting some STASH inventory room is the absolute best investment you can make.
The only thing is there was a big update recently, so it's a little buggy. Folks over in the MH |OT| were suggesting people wait a few weeks before diving in so they can sort things out.

I don't really undertand booting up this game tbh.
I'd put Marvel Heroes around the same level as Diablo 3. Normal playthrough is more fun than the average first playthrough of a game like this, a whole bunch of end game options, skill builds you can adjust on the fly, and largely enjoyable for the "Hey I know that guy!" factor.
Microtransactions aren't terrible, but the game definitely wants to encourage you to buy more inventory space with a ton of bullshit. You can fully level a few characters without needing to spend money on one though (more if you don't care which character you want and are okay using in-game currency on random characters).

Oh right, the random hero box. I completely forgot about that.
As you sink hours into it, suddenly the thought of buying heroes seems like a good deal. It isn't. But the temptation of convenience is hard to overcome (e.g. on Steam where it comes with a hero STASH). Resist!
For ARPGs, I really think Grim Dawn is the best right now. No free-to-play garbage, distilling the best ideas in the genre into a single game. It has an ingenius way of building characters, tying exploration and area progression directly into how a character is built via the constellation system, plus traditional ARPG itemisation and level progression. And items are actually meaningful beyond their default stats. All of this makes every action meaningful in a way that other ARPGs aren't--the closes one is Path of Exile, which fumbles the execution by being free-to-play.
GD is getting an expansion at some point, too.

Not picking Snake Man first is probably the biggest mistake Alex has ever made while playing a video game for the site

I just had the same wish, myself.
Do it, Vinny. Embrace the only open world made for you!
"So is that the same link as in ocarina?"
"Is that a real instrument??"
"Why doesn't he have a tunic?"
"Is Zelda the same Zelda or a new Zelda? Do they do the reincarnation thing?"
"Are hylians - that's how you say that, right? Hylians not hillians? Are they supposed to be elves with the pointy ear things? Is there a difference?"
"So you know how people say every game is connected? Is that a real thing by Nintendo or just a dumb Internet thing?"
*tangent on terminator series/multiple timelines*
"Is time travel actually possible or is it just a cool movie thing?"

we all know that Dan would know that an Ocarina is real because he'd talk about how he saw the ads for buying one in Nintendo Power
Alright, this one got me.
