- I have some sort of a weird feeling of Purity in a game so let's say I was playing the path finder Adventure game um anytime that I was going to play the game again I'd be very careful to try to weed out anything extra that had get stuck in until certain points
- I love small Skirmish style games so
- I love that open world just getting to explore everything and just doing nonsense things for hours on end have nothing to do with the main quest and thoroughly enjoying it
- I'm so excited to see Spider-Man done by Marvel and not by Sony that I'm I'm just I'm over the moon
- superheroes are weapons of mass destruction yeah right so so some of them having them regulated probably makes sense
