Eurogamer Q&A: Guilty gaming pleasures
We all have our vices. I once dated a girl who read The Daily Mail on her phone on her commute to work. When I pressed her about why on earth she'd do that to herself, all she could reply with was "it's so bad!". Just like that. Like that awful kid from cult terrible-movie The Wizard, marvelling over the equally-awful Nintendo Power Glove.
Unlike the kid from The Wizard, however, I don't think she was proud that she consumed several pages of unimaginable pap every week-day. But in a certain masochistic way, she enjoyed hate-reading the articles.
I was thinking about this on Monday when Bethesda's Rage 2 was leaked and then eventually revealed for real. Looking back to the original game, I remember two things. The first thing is that it was actually sort of crap. Not terrible, but by no means did it reach the benchmark of quality that 2018's Bethesda seems to regularly hit.
