Is it, though? It’s down to the side being sleazed upon to put a stop to sleazy practices so that we can properly define said practices as sleazy. So, either the content creators or the consumers have to say “no” with their effort and their dollar. If neither side says “no” then there’s no way to actually dictate that…

If the willing participants manage to create content good enough for the consumer and both sides are happy with the result, then perhaps the creative professionals who got devalued were, instead, overvalued in the first place?

If you don’t want to create music for the chance at a small amount of money, don’t create music for the chance at a small amount of money. The terms are laid out ahead of time, you can only blame yourself if you’re being exploited.

Whatever it is, I hope it ends up being “the winner” because that’s a genius idea.

Because clickbait headlines about clickbait headlines is the ultra-meta-clickbait that you should come to expect from literally all websites.

I wish I could play any Auto-Chess without feeling like the matches are 2-3 times longer than they need to be.

Considering how few lines this Snake has and how few lines Jon Wick has, this is pretty much perfect.

This seems like a problem of perspective, as you’ve made no mention of people using “Igavania” to more accurately describe the SotN side of the genre where very little “Metroid” occurs. I’ve heard plenty of people abandon the Metroidvania term in favor of just Metroid or Vania or Igavania in order to more accurately…

In his statement, Beahm repeatedly spoke of his commitment to “authenticity,”

Dystopia? Sure. Cyberpunk? San Francisco barely has fiber internet, nothing about it is cyberpunk.

It’s too bad you were disappointed in the product when every negative thing you had to say about it is, in my book, a positive for something made by Igarashi. Lots of the silly stuff is just a call back to the bygone era of janky video games. There is no need to hold up every game ever made to the standards of…

I forgot to make the comment when you posted before about Outer Wilds but I wanna say thanks for signal boosting the game. I played through it immediately after release and consider it the purest form of “video games as art.” It’s made by a genius crew of folks with some masterful craftsmanship that I cannot wait to…

Yeah, if Armor 2.0 matches the speculation, I’ll agree. Otherwise, “looking at a long-term solve” isn’t something a game company says without actually solving, which is why I took it as a “promise” which, in this argument, I am defining as “an expectation to execute an action” with the “action” in this case being solvi…

Literally 1 sentence after what you quoted is what I’m referencing:

But at least we get a lyrical “Fly Me To The Moon” song in the end credits to soothe us.

This is awesome and all but they still aren’t addressing the 1 thing they promised at Forsaken’s launch and still haven’t fulfilled: The ability to pull Year 2 items from collection. This is the only reason my stash is full.

Suspending yourself from streaming isn’t the same as being suspended by the service that provides your ability to stream.

After streamers reach a certain level of magnitude on Twitch, suspensions and bans only turn them into bigger stars—a phenomenon Doc himself is already very familiar with.

Now if only the fans could grow and evolve.

Related to the headline but unrelated to this article: I always hate it when my character makes a stupid or illogical plot-related decision just so the storyline can continue how the writers wanted. It’s why I can’t get into any TV show or movie where characters made dumb decisions, typically because they didn’t want…
