there is a fear of change for the sake of change and having something to market

Jesus Christ, remind me never to ask the Kotaku comments section about anything. Buncha fuckin’ malcontents.

Sure. When I noticed it I just assumed it was something that happened recently.

Anyone who stopped playing at any point before the Next update would be well-advised to take another look regardless of what they thought then. Just don’t forget to start a new game from scratch to have the best introduction to the new stuff.

That is a freaking cool mech design. Contrary to popular belief, not all mechs are awesome - but this one is.

I mean, in the long run the sensible answer is that when an article does this, you can assume the person in question has indicated a preference, right? We’re assuming everything else in there is accurate and up-to-date news as of time of writing anyway, so that’s just one extra bit of info (or two bits, 2^2 I suppose).

Most notably the new models feature the upgraded Tegra X1+ processor, so they get Dolby Vision and a new AI-enhanced upscaling system based on GeForce DLSS tech for actually pretty good real time upscaling from not-4K to 4K.

the ending makes it very clear that the project’s director, Tetsuya Nomura, has spent the past two decades as the chief creative behind Kingdom Hearts, the messiest and most complicated story in JRPG history

Mike, we may need that FF7R review ASAP.

The bad thing is that it’s Emma Watson that’s doing it, who is a celebrity and should therefore by default shut up. There seems to be an ugly undertone of ‘stick to your lane’ to Joan’s response, regardless of the validity of Watson’s message.

Fuck, ninja’d.

I dunno. The Valve guys mentioned in a few interviews that internally they went with Portal for their VR project even before Half-life ever came up - but the gravity reorientation when jumping through a portal in VR meant basically instavomiting for their testers. A VR version of Portal would need to be limited in…

Nothing lasts forever, and this won’t either. I do however suspect somewhere close to a year is a realistic estimate. And truthfully, my suspicions on why it won’t last longer than that are unfortunately pretty grim. 

Have we reached the point where dubstep is retro? I hope not, I could swear I was yelling at those damn kids about it just yesterday.

I wasn’t aware that this was something that required an engineering analysis to figure out.

Jake Lunt Davies was right about that - a BB-8 tank is not what anyone needed.
