r/dota 2 is hilarious, you’ll see someone trying to put a pro/streamer on blast for “being toxic” then someone digs into OP’s story and finds out they’ve purposely thrown their last 30 games

Next step is using the Trust Factor system from CS:GO.

The whole game very much had an Evangelion/Nausicaa vibe, wouldn’t surprise me if the dev was a fan.

The giant corpses were one of my favorite parts of Hyper Light Drifter, I absolutely love that aesthetic. Something about it captures my imagination and makes me wonder about the lore behind the creature - was it worshiped as a god, a demon? Did it roam around for centuries, helping to shape the land I’m exploring…

So to be clear, Dota Underlords is getting Underlords but not, you know, Underlord?

In the future there will only be 1 genre of videogame, sci-fi co-op MMOFPS looter shooter with mechs.

Oof, good catch!

I think you misunderstand me. I’m not scared of petty crime, I’m sure the people are lovely - I’ve heard stories from an American friend who worked outside Beijing for a while and it sounds like a beautiful place that I’d very much like to see some day.

The main event is going to be an absolute shitshow, assuming many foreigners even end up going (it was incredibly hard to get tickets, the usual business with scalpers) I can see some really bad shit going down.

As a big Dota fan, this won’t solve anything unless you address the underlying issue of heroes being incredibly one note - the fix is to have fewer heroes but each with more utility. The kits are spread so thin in Overwatch that it literally doesn’t matter how you try to enforce the meta, it’s always going to…

Google is a powerful tool, for better or worse (in this case worse, obviously.) It’s shockingly easy to get someone’s real name by looking up their username and digging through old forum/reddit/etc. posts where they’ve talked about their personal life. Maybe you can see they post in their city’s local subreddit, now…

Walmart doesn’t carry guns here (aside from a few piddly little airsoft guns), but you can absolutely buy guns and ammo at Canadian Tire.

Halo’s Grunt Birthday Party skull will always be a favourite.

Honestly, good for him. Twitch’s business/moderation policies are a goddamned mess — for a number of reasons, some of which have been covered on Kotaku before — and hopefully this gives them a much-needed kick in the ass to start making changes.

Do kids these days even know how to read an analog clock?

GIVE ME BLADES OR GIVE ME DEATH

Fair point, that’s true. I somehow didn’t even notice this was about their League slots despite the title

Overwatch is literally the only game where this happens. In every other esports league, there’s no scarcity to speak of because anyone can make a team with their friends at no cost and work their way up through open qualifiers.

From what I’ve heard (haven’t bought it myself yet) Rift owners can launch it from Oculus Home just fine after the initial launch from EGS. I don’t actually know how WMR is set up but I’d imagine it has a similar feature.
