They aren’t taking greater control of this land, overall they’re probably still losing some small degree of the control they had before. And really this is a lesser of two evils situation. In another place or another time this might be deeply concerning. But when the government is fascist? Better to hail corporate…

Yeah he'll probably be replaced with someone who's still shitty. But they might have less backbone.

Cry as they realise they've run out of the most valuable nostalgia to milk.

It’s 21XX. The oceans have boiled dry, sentient crab-sharks rule the world, the last of humanity is mounting a final desperate struggle. Microsoft is still trying to buy Activision.

It’s almost like a lot of fantasy authors just look for obscure names to name their characters rather than just straight up making them all up.

Too many games, and this extends to tabletop games too, neglect existing content in favour of pushing new releases. Even though in a lot of cases just retuning the existing stuff can keep player interest at a much lower cost than creating new assets.

No breakup related ones (my dating history is embarrassingly short and I’m marrying the only person I’ve been in a long term relationship this year) but I have a couple of games I find it tough to revisit because of associations with death. There was some PC tank game that I can’t even remember the name of that,…

He’s definitely not conservative, his books feature positive portrayals of LGBTQIA+ characters.

Except stereotypical ideas of masculinity and femininity are also social constructs. Sex has some influence on the purely physical characteristics but the way people dress? Behave? Talk? Those are all social constructs. Gender and sex are different, you’d have to be an idiot to argue that the “underlying DNA” is why…

How the hell did you get that impression? 

You come off as far more toxic here. And while I agree that good prose and good storytelling aren’t mutually exclusive Rothfuss sucks as a storyteller. Not because his stories are bad, but because he’s utterly incapable of actually writing them. I wouldn’t be surprised if I had two kids before Doors of Stone comes…

He also delivers consistently and tells good stories. The profile focuses too much on prose as if it’s the be all and end all of writing. But at the end of the day I appreciate Sanderson more than say Patrick Rothfuss. To me the better writer isn’t one with the more elegant prose, but the one that can actually finish…

I think boot camp killed some support for gaming on OSX. I imagine a lot of developers just figured that because Macs can install Windows there wasn't any pressing need to support OSX. But Apple as well just has little interest in fostering support for games on Mac as well. One of the reasons I've never had an…

Probably doesn't consider the Wii or Wii U to be proper consoles. Can't say I entirely blame them.

Thing is for some people they can't accept someone being fired (or having their professional ties cut) for anything less than a criminal conviction. Even if he's completely innocent of everything if he's a butthole to work with that's still a good enough reason for people to want to not work with him anymore. This…

It makes me unsure what to think really. But really the fact no outlets are reporting on these should be pause for thought to anyone treating them like a smoking gun. They might be real yes, but there is reason to doubt them as well.

It’s more impatience that’s crippled it more than anything else. They saw what Marvel had built and decided they wanted it now. And so tried to do their first ensemble movie with only three films of set up when Marvel took 5. Oh yeah and they hadn’t even introduced half the ensemble in any significant fashion. They…

Gender has nothing to do with science, it's a social construct.

I’d be surprised if he’s only just now sensing a sinking ship, the DC ship has never really stopped sinking since the Nolan Batman trilogy wrapped up. Sometimes it just hits an air bubble and floats a little but that’s about it. Wouldn’t shock me if most actors just see a DC film as a quick paycheck or two rather…

And Monster Hunter had it before GoW, and it probably wasn’t the first game to have it either. I don’t think the point is about what introduced it but rather what popularised the mechanic.
