I tend not to comment on women’s appearances but... do conservatives just have a little tree that cruel-looking blond women bud from?

They are being paid to be offended. It is manufactured outrage. Sane people don’t give a shit about this.

It’s comedic. Get over it.

Yet another “why is this even an article on Kotaku?” moment.

I don’t post notes like this in Soulsborne games, nor do I find them funny... however, getting tilted enough to make a 2 page dissertation on the matter is fucking ludicrous. Go outside. Lighten up. Do literally anything else with your life.

I think they’re funny. Amazing Chest Ahead I think was sort of the classic one after defeating O&S.

I want you to imagine that maybe nothing about what was tweeted by CDPR today was cruel. Now imagine that a type of trans/lgbtq+/wtv person exists that has a sense of humor, and can even *gasp* poke fun at themselves.

Now here’s the bombshell:
Both of those imaginary situations are true.

So, after learning this, what…

Oh no... A subset of a subset of people has been offended but in no real way affected by a joke. My heart goes out to them.
I hope deleting the tweet was enough, and pray they recover swiftly.

No they’re actually right in this case. People are going around trying to be officially recognized as lizards or cats. Look ‘em up they’re out there.

This is how it SHOULD be! Some people take themselves far too seriously. 

It is a stupid joke for sure, but outrage culture is way more annoying.

I always thought that the attack helicopter joke was because people were trying to identify as horses and dragons and other bullshit.

honestly these days you cant say anything without someone thinking your offending someone. usually when the person is calling that out, they arnt part of the community they think someone is offending.

I remember playing Halo 4 around the time it came out. I recall the story feeling soulless to me, moreso then usual. I attribute this to things like the Covenant being a major enemy again for no determinable reason and the Proteans being a bit boring. Forerunner stuff was better mysterious to me and not front and…

yup, the first one is a true classic and the second one is a solid sequel, too bad max payne 3 doesn’t exist

Cool post Ethan. Like the idea of revisiting a game like this. I just played it again myself but didnt enjoy it nearly as much as you.

Halo 5.

I feel like that’s what literally every video game movie does, and it literally never works.

That’s so crazy I have a similar story

For the record, THIS is ethics in games journalism.

There are tons of lost books, movies, and other forms of art that disappeared solely because it was illegal to make copies and the people responsible for them didn’t care and allowed them to be destroyed. It’s a travesty that we continue the trend, and have added video games to the garbage pile.
