A bit yeah. I just don’t see the value of making depicting cleavage a sin that every developer should avoid. Is that female character incredibly badass and cool? Doesn’t matter, because she’s showing some boobies so everything about her is BAD and I won’t buy the game because of this!

George R.R. Martin reportedly uses an MS-DOS machine to write so that he doesn’t get distracted by modern things like the internet. I can see Alan Wake doing something similar by having a phone that can call and, at most, play Snake.

I could see Alan Wake being that one guy who at most has a flip phone with just call ability.

Not really sure what you mean about sex stuff. But you missed out on a great game.

Would be fuckin siiiiiiiick if the Showcase was just “We can now make more of them and prevent people from scalping”

That’s exactly the fucking point. Borderlands absurdity is completely superficial — some meme guns and enemies that basically work for a one-off visual gag — and outside of that  it’s a dull paint-by-numbers game with terrible writing and awful humor. The stupidity isn’t in service of anything. SR4 was what…

Japan has a genre name - “Search Action.” Wish sites would pick it up.

It’s quite extraordinary that the very many responses explaining this article is wrong are based entirely on their not liking big outlandish games. “But I didn’t like Saints Row 4 for being so silly, so this is a bad take.”

That’s not what he is saying though. He is lumping in the people who make game-level decisions with the people who make major personnel and HR decisions.

It’d kinda suck for the voice actor to lose his job over this, though.

I’m conflicted here from a social awareness and educational aspect. =( First and foremost, this is not the ideal way I want the population to digest this type of information. Ideally, I’d like to see people, as a collective, actively educating themselves, seeking opportunities to raise awareness, and teach others who…

Considering some states in the south are trying to remove the civil rights movement from public school cirriculums, this might be the only way some kids will learn about him.

You put antidotes in the source of toxicity.

Yes this seems weird and yes it can create awkward moments or be mistreated and yes, Epic is suspect.

Let me guess, you have a problem with politics “suddenly” being a part of Star Trek & Watchmen too, right?

You didn’t exactly pay attention to the first one, did you?

Wait to you hear what Rage Against the Machine is all about. 

I take it you haven’t seen the original in a while.

I think the disconnect is borne from most franchise fans(devs) trying to recapture the magic from Aliens. What they’re consistently failing to grasp is the humans were never winning that battle. They then build a game where there’s legit chance of everyone living to the end, and undermine your own goal of celebrating…

What if you had an aisle seat and breathed through a dryer vent snaked out through the emergency exit? Awkwafina would appreciate that.
