the core belief that human life beginning at conception isn’t a nonsensical one.

As a dev who had to slog through mandatory 12-hour crunch six days a week for several months straight working on the Call of Duty franchise, and getting pennies on the dollar in bonuses, I can tell you that your take is incredibly naive and uninformed. No amount of proud feelings can fix the damage that crunch does to…

I’ve been following Hades development since day 1, and the small slice interview is really understating how well the directed the development of the game was. Since the game was in early access since 2018, Supergiant has had a lot of time fixing and creating new updates for the game and it was quite the journey to see…

If you haven’t already, I highly recommend watching the “Developing Hell” series from Noclip on Youtube, which basically follows the development of Hades from the beginning. At no point do any of the developers seem stressed about a release (except maybe the owners). They managed timelines and released features when…

I for one am just shocked to find out that yet another conservative is a sociopathic shit that represents the worst of humanity.

I’m just so extremely surprised. How can this POSSIBLY keep happening? How can we keep getting confirmation of that fact? It’s just boggles the mind I tell you!

Ah yes, conservatives. The folks who champion personal responsibility until that responsibility is “don’t be a prick.” Then it’s everyone else’s fault for being annoyed or upset at their behavior.

Like, imagine the uplift of sales if Polygon and Kotaku took all the Animal Crossing: New Horizons stories and replaced them with reviews of smaller, unknown titles. A good 40 games, per website, could have been highlighted in the last week and a half instead of the same goddamn articles being repacked and sold each…

“The only thing we can do is continue to keep this in mind as purchasers of games...”

Thank you for even attempting to try and turn some minds around. That stuff is extremely frustrating to bother with.

Everything you’re saying is true. But the people who need to hear it just fuuuuuuuuuuuucking refuse. I’ve tried all kinds of approaches to talking w/ other commenters here about gender or race-bias in gaming: listening first; keeping things hyper-rational and citing data; letting things get emotional and appealing to…

*cluck*

the hardest cock you’ll see today:

It doesn’t feel like that shit will work this time. The Ukraine scandal is an avalanche, with no time for distractions in between boulders. And now we know that Giuliani had a whole shadow operation going on over there! End-running around the State Dept & Congress, money being held up by the freakin’ OMB with no…

It’s part and parcel of Trump’s standard strategy.

Obstruction of Justice.

He thinks he’s innocent because in his mind, he never said “investigate Biden’s son or you’re not getting aid.” This is pretty on brand with Trump; he’s never explicit in what he says, but the people around him know exactly what he means. Then they get to go and do the dirty work for him. So if Guiliani or Barr end up…

They have the non-plausible, but still deployable, deniability that because the phone call didn’t mention the military aid, he didn’t use it as leverage. I suspect that the whistleblower report has the connection via communications of others in the administration that the aid was tied to the Biden ratfucking and…

I’m curious about the demographics of these people. Is it the “Harry Potter is satanic!” evangelical crowd who made it hard to get D&D books in my small down in the 80s? Is it bitter Incel/Gamergaters wanting to do anything to make life difficult for women in gaming? Some other group entirely?

I’m already seeing the comments, so let’s be clear about something here:

“Cancel Culture” did not kill Alec Holowka. We don’t yet have the full picture of how he died, but it sounds as if he died by suicide, and had been suffering from a host of psychological and personal difficulties prior to that final, tragic act.

No…

Except the FACTS are that they said, before release, that a lot of the things they said would be in the game would NOT be in the game at launch, and would be added later. So it’s people like YOU that are the problem with this game, because you did not READ.
