And this is why they don’t care about putting out quality.

And also the fastest and most refunded.

It’s like ransom

Having not bought it, going only off streams and online coverage

I simply did not purchase the bad game, I suppose I am built in a different fashion.

How to convince investors NOT to fund your sequel: publicly tell the fans to stop buying your games.

I’m not saying Frontiers is bad, just that to me Prime’s idea seems more interesting.

Man, this looks pretty great. Would make for a good video game premise, but we got Sonic Frontiers instead.

My condolences to anyone playing Immortal.

Sucks for the Chinese players who will lose access to the games, but otherwise...awesome. Fuck working with the CCP and screw a lot of the behavior and decisions by ATVI. China makes up a tiny part of their overall revenue (3% for the company, and apparently around 10% for Blizzard), but after shit like the…

Ahh, I remember when World of Warcraft launched in China and how a lot of that filtered back into the western client, suddenly Skeletons being removed from the game and replaced with zombies with no bones showing, decorative skulls disappearing, NPC animal Pandas that you could kill removed, blood going from red to…

“As a gamer who spent ten thousand hours in the world of Azeroth, starcraft and overwatch, I feel so heartbroken as I will not longer have the access to my account and memories next year”

I get the game is competitive by nature but that doesn’t mean we have to cater to…

Kotaku: Toxicity in online spaces is bad

Great idea! Forcing people to take a ration of your shit is brilliant. I'll look forward to your book, "Making People Feel Bad for Funsies."

Alow me to provide you a comprehensive list of all the times allowing “good-natured ribbing” did *not* degenerate into “toxic hate speech” in an internet game between anonymous opponents:

Which is what is currently available - emotes and preset text for some good natured ribbing, such as the thumbs up from another when you’ve just done something dumb can be quite effective in that regard (and then have them do it again when you turn what seemed dumb into a genuinely good play, like baiting them into…
