The People Speak: Bugs, Bioware and Belgium

This week Destiny 2 Warmind was released, and the gaming world collectively sighed. Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire (review forthcoming) more than made up for the disappointment with Warmind (at least for me) and continues the CRPG renaissance we’ve been having the last few years.

On the GR side of things, we want to remind you that there’s still time to enter our Heart of the Revolution community contest. It’s been on hiatus because of our recent staff expansion and explosion of great games we’ve been covering, but with the lull, before E3 we’re bringing it back with a vengeance. Just check out this post on how to enter, and you can win some free games!

Here are some of our choice comments this week from across GameRevolution:

Article: Players Less Concerned With Bugs Than Bad Game Design, Study Finds

Comment: Bugs and glitches are often the spice of video games. Unless they hinder my progress, I find them quite amusing.
