Good on them for the queer representation! I love that we're seeing more of that (and especially that the indie space is thriving on that front).

I find review bombing abhorrent. I wished people that owned sites, platforms, etc. that allow reviews would come up with ways to silence the practice. I value thoughtful reviews of things to help enable decisions, and it’s been endlessly frustrating ever since primitives figured out they could use them as a way to…

For the people who are super into this, I hope uh... I hope this serves as more of an alternative than an appetizer if you catch my drift.

I was thinking the exact same thing!

Good article, but kindof a weird headline.  I think most people reading this would have known who Sega is without the addition of “Sonic Maker.”

What a dipshit lmao

I saw one reply that referred to him as “A billionaire from the version of Steam you’re forced to use in Hell.”

Being a 53 year old adult who’s still mad about getting picked on in high school is just sad.  

I realize the manufacturers can’t do anything do stop it

I generally agree with you, but what about this system is related to deck building besides the superficial use of “cards” to symbolize what is essentially just a list of collectible perks? The game is an RPG. It feels like you’re dismissing an RPG element just because it communicates the element through cards. 

it’s landlordism for art. the hungry maw of capitalism will not be satiated until everyone is having their value extracted at every given moment and no one owns anything except a handful of people at the very top. They would make you rent your clothes if it was possible.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

“It’s not a gun issue, it’s a mental health issue”

Pull manga, but not the fucking guns.

Toxic Management at Konami??? Noooooooooo, couldn’t be /Sarcasm

Fuck RetroArch and its shitstain Kiwi Farms-loving lead dev, TwinAphex. So much of the emulation community has been harmed by him and/or by RetroArch itself. One of the greatest emu devs ever, near, died by suicide because of KF harassment. Stenzek, the developer of DuckStation and new UI dev of PCSX2, almost left the…

It’s late stage capitalism for sure. But honestly, with our political climate as it is, the last thing I care about is shit like this. Sony is throwing a hissy fit over a more extreme behavior of the trend they have consistently bought into for over a decade now.

“Call of Duty gamers are passionate, knowledgeable, and sophisticated.”

Probably because the scenes weren’t lit to have these features active. The same thing pixel art games went through with scanlines. Some games look pretty great without scanlines, but its a crapshoot and usually games looked better with them, since that’s how the artists designed them to be viewed. These cards are so…

Between none of the reporting describing the “prank” and a cursory view of their channel, in addition to their statement that they’ll continue “pranking”, I’m more than inclined to believe that there was no actual “prank” and it was likely just straight up harassment at the minimum.
