A lot of weirdly strong defenses of two insanely large corporate entities merging into a much large corporate entity with very little benefit to actual users in these comments...

FWIW, King makes more money annually than Blizzard. I think core gamers often sleep on the ridiculous mobile money included in this deal. 

That’s some level-A strawman reasoning right there. Of course people gave a crap about developers getting bought out, even if you never noticed. EA in particular since they had such a long string of failed acquisitions in their past history, but Activision hasn’t been without its critics either for sure. Not least…

“Activision Blizzard has proven to be an extremely toxic company that has taken advantage of their employees in disgusting ways”

Praise Beebo, indeed.

Will they be able to discuss the fact the openly trans character in the game is name Man Guyname?

I actually think Gen 5 holds up really well in retrospect. There are some great designs that stand up against any other gen, like Excadrill, Chandelure, Garbodor... And even some of the really mid Pokemon feel like they’d fit into Gen 1 or 2 really nicely. Zebstrika and Galvantula come to mind.

Honest i think the pokemon added in gen 2 are weaker than gen 5 taken as a whole.

some of them are awful (Sawk is just a human man)

She deserved better than to die offscreen.

Pretty sure they killed Abra Kadabra... llllast season? Maybe the one before.

And I think I make it...six times Thawne’s died in the Arrowverse. Three of them were last year alone. I’d be up for them turning it into a Kenny-style joke at this point. Have him guest in every episode just to get bumped off again.

Like my brain won’t let me do it because I’m not a compulsively lying narcissist but now I’m trying to think up stupid lies Santos would tell that makes him look worse.

Well I guess I’m toxic because I use it as a “good game” emote when the game is good.

> wanted us to sign that we could be held liable by Gamestop for the robbery.

He funneled it into woodworking, acting, writing, performing and scotch.  For him, and us, I think it was the right move.

Doubtful. They could just pull TLoU Remastered from the collection if that were the case. Not to mention that it’s not going away until long after the series will have finished airing which is when interest around playing or replaying the game is going to be highest.
