Except you only have less choice in the vendor you reach out to... and Steam has been operating as a defacto monopoly for longer than some of the people buying games have been alive. You’ve been suffering under lack of choice for over a decade. I guess it’s true, you can’t fight to restore rights to people who don’t…

....That is the hottest, dumbest take possible for this. Why do people like you think that anything pro-developer is by definition anti-consumer? When did every effort in a market have to benefit the consumer or by default become “anti-consumer?” Despite what you think, their are other interests here that do matter…

No, to be clear, they are making fun of outspoken homophobes being caught in situations that question their orientation. As a gay man, I’m down for it.

In response I could counter your joke, but I think removing that terrible pun from play, while just, would not make you resolve to do better.

I’m not in love with the style — the animation and palette are both kind of meh. I also want to point out that their trailer breaks some very simple game marketing rules: Specifically, they revisit the same gameplay multiple times (generic sword combo sequences being a big culprit) and as a result, I feel like they’re…

I have a pair of friends who are both adults with no children who go to Disney World every year for the last 7 and plan to keep it up. They absolutely love it because they were in theatre for a significant part of their adult careers and they love the artistry that goes into every moment of that magic. I think Disney…

Whitewashing is when the -role- is cast as white, erasing the existence of people of color from the setting. A cosplayer dressing up as a black character but being white is *not* whitewashing. The company changing the character to *be* white is whitewashing. The fact that you don’t understand the difference…

It’s fine. I hear she’s making unseasoned, skinless baked chicken in her next restaurant as part of her effort to clean up the darker side of Soul Food. Don’t worry, no chopstick fonts. She found a really cute font instead that looks like rope. You should see what the lowercase b’s look like. It’s a hoot.

Counter argument: most showbiz/nonshow biz relationships don't last because of how demanding the jobs are, how often they are apart and how actors are professional emotional manipulators and even if they want to, it can be nearly impossible to turn it off (or to convince their partners they are being authentic)

According to other news, it looks like this title will be cross-platform coop.

Nah, I’m gonna say it: I’m glad she’s charged. I wish that her being white or black or any other color wasn’t part of the conversation about if she *would* be charged, but you don’t get to do hundreds of dollars of damage “in retaliation” for other people committing crimes. I can completely understand how upset she…

Which is why I prefaced playing Standard, which Arena has all of the card sets from.

I play ranked on Magic the Gathering : Arena, which uses Standard format and most decks don’t even have a Planeswalker. My only deck involving them puts them all in the sideboard and pulls them in using Mastermind’s Acquisition if I need them.

Is the salami bloom is off the whole-grain rose?

Which is why I made sure to tweet as much at his official twitter today. It’ll probably be lost in noise, but yeah.

To be typecast requires that to be a type to begin with. Call me when a second one comes along.

Can you imagine if a TV host was grilling some guy about banging a male co-star?

No, both fit my cost-cutting expectations.

Because at the moment they’re operating as a boutique store and ramping up to full competition... I’d say that’s a smart strategy, but I guess if they aren’t Steam 2.0 out of the gate, some folks are gonna have a problem with them.

This is the kind of stuff that makes me support the Epic Store’s continued existence. steam has been positively glacial about updating or adding value to their platform in any meaningful way for years but now that a real competitor exists on the horizon every announcement by a competitor (wish lists, improved library…
