... and you left out the part where it wasn’t at all in a negative way. The actual quote for context:

He said it in a joking manner and it’s also true. I take no issue with being called a freeloader in the context of taking advantage of a great F2P game without spending any money. Many people are taking that particular comment out of context. All the man was trying to say is that they need to charge a premium on…

So while Borderlands was/may be fun, at what point should we (as consumers) start punishing these corporations for their shitty behavior?

“It Looks Just Like a War Zone”

Dear video game industry: I will give you money for things.

Sure you can. Laws have two components, the letter of the law and the intent. It’s the whole point of having a judiciary branch.

Sounds to me like Arch Warhammer is a dick.

It’s a White Wolf property. That they’ll probably trivialize actual struggles that humans are going through while also being deeply culturally appropriative is par for the course. IRL Human suffering is really just cool neat edgy set dressing. Almost all of the World of Darkness property lines are problematic,…

As an MMA fan, I’d say you’re right on calling Rousey out on the Sandy Hook garbage (though understand MMA is a wasteland of fringe libertarian politics ... kinda comes with the territory). However, while her remarks on Fox competing were worded tastelessly -- a fair point -- on the substance she’s not wrong. That is,…

Players who do this are robbing themselves of practice time that might make all the difference when they find themselves on the verge of losing against a future opponent. cheating not only the game but themselves. They don’t grow. They don’t improve. They take a shortcut and gain nothing. Nothing was risked and…

Okay, this is my favorite story so I have to tell it at least briefly. I was on a map that had a super evil biome. Specifically, anything dead would reanimate within moments, and begin trying to murder any living thing it saw. By doing some experiments, I was able to roughly map its dimensions. Dwarves generally were…

Sekiro a shortened form of “sekiwan no rō” meaning “one-armed wolf”, which is also a nickname and just as valid of a name as any and hey, look, it is the title of the game so please shut up.

Doesn it seem like this is largely affecting games with clearly sexualized underage characters often being put in nonconsensual situations?

I think they are mainly trying to insulate themselves from the “She is really 1000 year old demon she only LOOKS 14" and to a lesser extent “Strange power dynamic bordering on rapey” type of games, but are approaching it in very broad strokes.

My dude, if it’s good enough for ISSHIN FUCKIN’ ASHINA, it’s good enough for me.

It’s pretty clear that you are talking about an entirely different aspect of controlling Alucard than we are. Yes, Alucard’s attacks and movements have a physicality to them. But he’s animated in such a way that he still feels detached from the world around him. His footsteps slide across the ground, he leaves a…

Disagree on every front. He lacks momentum to a huge degree, nigh upon moonwalks all the time, has big ol turn around animations while moving, changes speeds far more quickly than I’d expect, can cancel stuff all the time, and overall had no weight whatsoever.

It didn’t. I distinctly remember most weapons just sliced through with minimal oompf.

In terms of the combat, I’ve never really felt like SotN’s had much weight to it either, so if it’s like that (where you don’t get much response when you hit the enemy), I’m fine with it.

for people trying to visualize why anyone would run a 4:3 res on a 16:9 display, this image sums it up pretty well, they’re trying to account for the vertical space that’s important in building.
