Eh, Avellone’s explanation was that most video game romance is focused on the pay-off in life-threatening situations - the whole Mass Effect-style “romance is fucking before the suicide mission” shebang. He’s said multiple times that he’s less opposed and rather feels that there are more interesting relationships to…

No, it can’t. Nihilism is a ethical/moral relativism philosophy.

I hope a lot more of these jackasses are exposed.  Flush them like the turds they are, and open up some spots for people who deserve the promotion and are, I dunno, DECENT HUMAN BEINGS.

Since when is nihilism a sign of sexual predation? That is a leap.

HR and Cops: the ultimate class traitors. Without irony.

Normally I’m one of those “Lets wait for all the facts” types cause I do believe in “innocent until proven guilty”. That said whenever there is more than one unrelated person corroborating the same series of events... you have to admit that the odds are that he is in fact guilty of the things of which he stands…

Always remember, HR only exists to help the company by dealing with the people that will hurt their bottom line. Sometimes (not nearly enough) this means that they get rid of the harassers, and far too often this means they get rid of the people that report the harassers.

I mean, he’s written some of my favorite games of all time, but this does explain a lot about what’s happened with him professionally recently. Obsidian wanted him out not because he’s not talented, but because he makes it harder for everybody else to do their jobs and no “genius” is worth that. Of late he’s been kind…

If only these men in power were consistently held accountable for their actions. HR Departments will go out of their way to protect "valuable" men in power. It's unfortunate, to put it mildly, but behavior won't change until society starts communicating that behavior won't be tolerated. 

Something I realize that whenever I read something like this about a creator, I start reflecting on what they have done before and if these revelations cast some of those stories/decisions in a more questionable light.

the thing is foreign intelligence’s would immediately conclude Trump doesn’t actually have ‘the Power of Kira’ when they see that his domestic rivals are alive and well and not immediately dropping dead.

The domestic scandal would reveal itself pretty quick... spending 10 trillion on nothing.

The article explicitly says that is PURE CASH only. Combining the amounts in checking accounts and savings ~$80 trillion 

And pays for things!

Death Note takes place in a crazy urban fantasy world where Donald Trump has money.

The Shinigami also don’t understand the concept of “transaction”. Until both parties got what they wanted, the transaction is invalid.

Good for you, now go grab your 50 cents, Wumao.

Trump has a convincing defense: he can neither read nor spell.

The ending didn’t suck, but I really, really hated it for how mean-spirited it was. The guy did everything right, all without using the Death Note itself, for some Death King to pull a hissy fit over being outplayed and retroactively changed the rules, which also happens to still be in effect because the protagonist…

Not naming Xi Jinping might still be risky, risking a lawsuit by Disney for ripping of Winnie the Poo.

If Trump actually had the Death Note, he’d probably write his name on the first page to let everyone know it’s his book.
