My own reaction when I heard the news:

FFVよりもボクの学生時代をリメイクしたい

I really love the mo-cap in this game. Squenix’s animation team is burning the midnight oil.

DMM is a digital merchandise distributor that has been diversifying its services over the years, from online games to, most interestingly, solar panels. With respect to KanColle, it provides the servers and hosts the service. The developer is a different entity: Kadokawa, which is perhaps better known as a publisher…

I thought Bravely Second already came out. Is the English version coming out in 2016, or is an updated version coming out in 2016?

Which Japanese foods are covered in oil? I am genuinely curious.

To be sure, the gameplay deserves a fair assessment, but the subject matter is fair game, too. Games are slammed for their subject matter all the time. That Mass Effect ending debacle is a huge case in point.

That right there is the most heinous crime this game commits: Perpetuating the uneducated belief that nuclear power plants are nuclear bombs.

As a student of computer science, I find character creators as presumptuous of gender as Booleans of truth values. The gender variable must be one or the other, and initializing it as male just happens to be the convention.

She’s got a fistful of broomstick.

It means they’ll end the series at the 255th installment.

You sure that’s Engrish? It reads like perfect Pirate English to me.

NBA 2K15.

Ah, so it’s like Goldeneye. It was novel for its time, but it has aged since then.

Complacency with violence in video games came only after years and years of controversy.

I was just debating to myself about KOTOR. I played the first 10~20 hours of KOTOR and hated it, and I wanted to know what its fans see in it that I don’t.

Hunh. I always thought the creator of FMA is female:

It indicates that the number is a counted quantity. “3 million lights”

It doesn’t pay to confess mental health issues. Depression means lost productivity. In a country with uncertain job security, confessing that you deal with mental health problems means that you’ll lose your job. Or not get hired at all.
