If an African games company made 10 AAA games about various African warriors/heroes and then suddenly made a game with a white protagonist to sell copies/”pander”... I dunno.

ACTUALLY Woke: Devs, please be more open and welcoming to marginalized people in places of creative power, so we can actually have more games that accurately represent the lives of those marginalized people.

I imagine the best (perhaps only) way to fix this is to have more diversity in positions of power in game companies.

Everyone knows that it’s technically more difficult to animate non-white non-cis women character models. Programmers have just recently cracked the code for animating female models. Just wait 5-10 more years, the technology just isn’t there yet!

Wow, this is such a lovely note! Thank you so much for the kind words.

I would have turned it down to easy too, to be honest... if there was an easy mode! It’s a one-size-destroys-all in terms of difficulty settings, I’m afraid.

Hey Ari, I’ve been reading Kotaku for longer than I can remember (2006, I think? Jesus...), and it’s been hard to see so many staff writers I’ve come to love and respect move up and/or on. There’s been a certain degree of anxiety on my part as new writers, such as yourself, replace them because I don’t know your…

LeBron James is not responsible for crazy people not knowing the definition of words.

Gettin’ extra racist in the grays today. Do they know that everyone else knows how racist they are as soon as they reference murders in Chicago, or do they actually think they’re making a real and valid point?

“As a man of faith, I can have no hatred toward you that I will publicly admit to.”

So now that we have introduced Madame Hydra to the world are we going to acknowledge that she and Nick Fury have a um history? This was a great episode that piggy backed off the last scene from episode 4. The symbolism of blood dripping off of an American symbol shouldn’t be lost on anyone. I feel nothing for John…

I love how the producers have made sure that Sam and Bucky have grown together, not by fighting, but by creating a mutual organic relationship.
Bucky knew for a long while about a black super solider, but it was only through Sam’s experiences he came to realize that it was more than just a hidden secret. So when he…

Good catch on the Wakanda ownership. To sum up, the banks, the military, and the government couldn’t help Sam. Only his community, family, Bucky, and Wakanda step up when it matters.

I think people overlook the reason why Sam and Steve were drawn to each other in the first place. They are both hopelessly optimistic. They -both - are always looking for a better solution, trying to understand both sides of a problem. That’s the primary reason why Steve felt Sam was the best person for the mantle of…

IMHO, the series was not written primarily for black MCU fans or black vets.

I don’t feel bad for that motherfucker at all. He’s just another killer cop. You can’t handle the stress then the job is not for you. 

i thought it was a surprise that sam, being a black air force vet and a counselor “couldn’t believe that a Black man who served his country could be jailed and disregarded.”

Sam tells Bucky that now that he has full control of himself, it’s up to him to define the kind of man he wants to be. He also tells him that if he truly wants to make amends, he has to be of service to the people who he’s hurt.

If the situation is seemingly calm enough for you to be holding your gun with one hand, while the other is at your side/in your pocket WHILE looking away from the person whom you are pointing your gun at....YOU SHOULDN’T HAVE YOUR FUCKING GUN OUT.

Hey who doesn’t want an AI listening in on everything said in a game lobbied and filtered.... somewhere... to try and understand the context of certain words and phrases where it no doubt gets tripped up by accents...
