Oh shit, I didn’t realize screenwriting was about giving the characters an easy way through the movie. Someone get this guy a job at Disney, he’ll fix *everything*!

I think part of the problem is that Destiny is, at the moment, in a niche of it’s own. No other game is trying to fill a faux-MMO space with a loot shooter.

So for people who like this style of game, they’re stuck with... this mess. And that’s frustrating.

I mean, you have a point, but you have to remember that every…

Yeah, but not everything in gaming has to be for you, you know? I’m not trying to be mean, but there should be rewards for people who put in extra effort. If you can’t, that’s fine, but you shouldn’t tear down the people who can just because you have to take Flawed_Logic Jr to soccer practice or something.

I picked up Hand of Fate 2 on a whim and am really enjoying it. It’s an actin game, but it’s also a card game!

Kind of ruins your rant about how Johnson invented it if, you know, he didn’t.

I saw the headline and thought Valve was taking a stand in favor of players using performance enhancing drugs for their tournaments.

This makes a LOT more sense.

Strong disagree on Poe. One of the very first things we see on him in Force Awakens is a guy who is captured by Kylo Ren and bullshits him with humor right off the bat. Him bullshitting Hux to buy time was perfectly in character.

Don’t forget Rey had that tracking beacon that led her to Leia. She even mentions they’re directly above them, but can’t see them. Then they saw the fox migration and took a gamble it was related.

... *insert I don’t know what I was expecting dead bird gif*

I would settle for a Smash 4 Deluxe in 2018 if Smash 5 is more than two years out.

Marvel vs Street Fighter had an evil Sakura doing Akuma’s muder death kill move, and a Dan Hibiki doing suicide version, the Otoko Michi.

This has been, and continues to be, the epitome of ridiculous gaming salt mines.

I wish Blizzard had just turned their nose at them and sued every private server to the ground.

All this does is fragment their own user base, create impossible design choices like the ones highlighted here, and honestly this sort of…

“are about as good as those of a Charles-and-Di reunion.”

Hah, this didn’t age well. Still apt, however.

I’d be worried that if this is possible with Ingress data, why not Pokemon? They’re built on basically similar systems, and I think the implications of that would be much more chilling.

Man, I really hope you guys turn an eye towards Fortnite sometime. It’s been a *wild* ride. I feel like Fortnite is flying under Kotaku’s radar, and it’s got some *weird shit* going on.

Not a fan of the headline. It may not be intentional but it prematurely excuses his behavior as ‘he was drunk’.

This is a depressing topic. My only consolation is that just *maybe* I’m old enough that I’ll pass before I see it get really bad. On the flip side, if it starts to go south I’ll check out pretty quick because I have kidney disease so when I’m older if basic services start to fail I’ll be on the expendable list in…

Is there anything official about FFXII apeing Star Wars? Because it completely apes Star Wars.

You forgot to mention how the story is basically Star Wars.

Our heroes consist of a plucky hero who wants to escape his life of boredom for action and adventure in the skies, a princess fighting against an evil empire, and a dashing rogue with his own ship and trusty non-human co-pilot.

Baasch is Obi-Wan (in that he…

That’s because Melee looks like ass :D
