...Taiwan, which is considered part of China but has its own elected government...

Can you imagine the explosion of outrage if this game was hit with “Real Censorship" like not letting you pet the heads of 2,000 year old dragon lolis, or adding an undershirt to a character class?  I wouldn't be able to leave my house without tripping over the YouTube videos!  

It’s the zen triangle of clickbait.

It has been a part of journalism since the beginning. Someone made a cave painting depicting Ook getting gored by a mammoth and an editor came and recommended that they add more blood.

Why? Why do you keep writing articles about garbage online personas like this?

Hey look a sensible person on the internet. I wish more were like you!

His brand is worse than just that, it’s an embodiment of that douchebag person of course but it’s also that YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH IT. You can act like a bully, you can act like a prick, and you can insult everyone around you and you’ll go places just like him.

“What does it mean for a game to let you consent?”
I buy the game. Consent applies to actual living things, not fictional things or objects. I do not ask my toilet if I can poop in it. I do not ask a book if I can read it. Your question is clickbait. And before anyone says anything, yes, I read the article. My…

It makes no sense to get upset over imagery in a work of fiction until you know in what context the imagery is being used. Also, a depiction of a fictionalized world is likely to contain portrayals of real bigotry, especially one set in this universe, so it’s not appropriate to assume that just because bigotry is…

Yesterday evening, fans enjoyed seeing her in the spotlight. Some are now drawing art of Nakamura and meme-ing about how “adorable” she is and how she should be “protected at all costs.” While much of the praise she’s received seems rooted in genuine admiration, some have argued that more extreme variations on these…

There’s a reason Valve takes a comparatively larger margin from sales. They didn’t practically set many standards in the gaming industry from nothing. With all those spiffy features we’ve gotten for free from Steam (API’s, cloud saves, etc), on top of managing storefronts in several countries (including taking the…

Says the company that works their employees to death and fires them if they want a weekend off.

If only they cared this much about their own employees.

Essentially admitting that exclusivity deals are due to some pissing match between them and Valve rather than being anywhere near an attempt at being pro-consumer.

1TB is a generous amount? Not in this day and age.

Most studios would just dump the game, and build a new one. Even games successful at launch rarely get the level of updates like this one did.

The article also missed that EGS has been giving away a legitimately good game every two weeks for free. Oxenfree, Edith Finch, The Witness—just three off the top of my head.

No, he didn’t miss it. It’s just convenient not to mention them while defending Epic store

They skipped over just about every point that they couldn’t “disprove.”

Also, Steam doesn’t take 30% and EGS doesn’t take 12%. Both are conniving figures that make the difference between Steam and EGS’ takes look much bigger than the reality of the situation is.
