According to the developers the goal for the fungus is to spread, *not* to kill all humans explicitly, that’s more a side effect. They mentioned in a follow-up that this was intended to display a “non-violent” spread. That is, the infected are typically violent because people resist.

From established lore, the “lurker”…

In fairness, Forspoken already runs like dogshit on the PS5, if the demo is anything to go by, and that’s the platform it optimizes for.

Lakeburg Legacy is made by the same people behind the very very different game The Last Spell, and they have been wonderful in supporting and improving the game.

The steam engine is going to steal the work of all these furriers!

(I’m not saying you’re wrong, I’m just saying if you think this fight is winnable you are incorrect)

And what about the people who didn’t get to walk on stage and receive their award and give a speech because of time cuts to account for Judge’s speech?

Every single Pokemon S/V Article in a nutshell.

I think a lot of people were worried, based on early advertising, that this was going to be loaded down with loot boxes and microtransactions. I know I thought it was going to be.

I’m still annoyed that what appears to be primarily a single player game has microtransactions for cosmetics, but that’s gaming in 2022 I…

In fairness, being terrible at League is, in my opinion, more of a compliment.

$1000 bucks an hour for 15 hours is poverty wages?

The card should have been labeled a 4070, because that would have been more accurate. It had a core count significantly less than the other 4080, and the ratio was comparable to the previous 70/80 splits

I have to admit, Kotaku’s comment section being against an *independent developer* because the developer is upset that people are breaking the law to steal from them is a new low.

Because chess.com online tournaments aren’t run by FIDE, and FIDE runs this tournament. It would be like if, back before the NBA/ABA merger, a player was banned/suspended by the NBA, the ABA wouldn’t have to respect that ban.

There’s significant evidence that he’s cheated more recently in online cash prize events. There’s a certain level of expected accuracy at top levels of play, and in recent online events, Niemann was playing consistently in the 90+% range of perfect machine accuracy. Bobby Fischer in his prime was like 75%, Magnus and…

Good vibes only.

If Carlsen had a history of crying wolf re:cheating, that would certainly be the case.

Carlsen loses games all the time (well, not all the time - he’s world champion for a reason). He doesn’t call out people who beat him for cheating every time he loses. Instead, specifically one guy with a history of cheating and an…

> Those were also different times where it was more safe to leave a 10 year old alone or with some friends at the local arcade.

Good lord this may actually be the most historically inaccurate statement of all time.

Yes, there were no problems after the Monarchy was overthrown Please don’t google the Napoleonic Wars. Whole country was on vacation for the early 1800s. Nothing to see here.

This is true *for the most part*. There are a couple of places in the game with run-backs. However, they are rare enough that I assume they are most likely oversights. Most bosses have Sites of Grace right outside their arena. And even the worst runbacks would be a below-average runback in Dark Souls 1, for example.

Now…

That was one positive change of Elden Ring: letting you spawn right next to most bosses.

I have no obligation to defend views I haven’t espoused. The discussion is always about gatekeeping to some people.

That’s not the same as it always being about gatekeeping.
