Right, I interpreted that as:

I’m gonna have to disagree. Streets of Rage during its best period was easily confused with a number of Japanese 2D fighters until the characters used 2.5D movement and those animations were fluid enough I had to really study it to realize they weren’t using any 3D. As for the character designs? I mean, SoR’s original…

I hate to break it to ya but SEGA has not worked on a Streets of Rage game or really any 2.5D brawlers of mention, in 26 years. There is not a single employee who worked on any of the Streets of Rage games that I know of who even still works for SEGA. They would not be your saviors in this case.

You do NOT have three or four jobs. Just stop. Working one day somewhere and another place another day is not three/four jobs. It’s gig work, that’s it. Doordash, uber, etc are not Full time jobs.. it would literally be impossible. I am so sick of hearing people lie about their work. I worked fulltime in school an…

The part that puts FF on its own level is when you realize that one of the changes the director made was so horrifically, stunningly misogynistic that it leaves you in breathless wonder for why Sue didn’t just leave them to die:

I’m just glad we live in a world where there’s enough good-will tools out there for this to even be a problem!

That’s incorrect. You’re thinking of Folding@Home. Foldit is a protein folding game requiring players to learn how to plan and recognize a successful folded protein and multiple players have actually received author credits on articles from the results of playing.

It’s also possible that she is an abuser as well. But as bad as that one recording makes her sound, she’s correct about one thing in it....the same actions with the same intensity from each of them would result in far more damage coming from him than from her. Neither partner should use physical violence, but when…

That argument is flawed from the beginning.

I’d really enjoy if you did a weekly series on accessibility in-and-for games. I think there’s a LOT to be said as this article shows and it’s not something the average gamer bumps into unless they’re in the know enough to even see and think about it.

I’d settle for Brutus.

And that would probably count for something if we weren’t talking about a device created over 30 years ago, available only via the consumer phone line with no advertisement and never repeated. There are almost no people working at the modern Nintendo who were there during the release of this controller. Additionally…

The problem is that culturally, the disabled are treated as invisible in Japan. If Nintendo is ever moved to take steps to create products that consider them, it needs to be a strong external pressure.

All of this is sensible, but that title is terrible. Game delays don’t cause more crunch, companies abusing game delays cause more crunch. Context matters, and this way of phrasing it encourages people to think “Damned if you do, damned if you don’t” when the truth is : Game delays are generally a good thing, but…

Real talk: This whole situation has made me like Elizabeth Warren less. I can completely believe that he said it in a private dinner with her as friends. I’ve said as much myself among my friends despite the fact that some of them are women and all of us generally support voting for Elizabeth Warren first, Bernie…

Let’s be real, finding mold in his palettes would be a glow up for the look.

That take is scorching hot -- DLC does not mean a game is unfinished.

Notice he didn’t mention anything about disability. At least he kept it real.

That’s a pretty reaching argument. Gone Home was specifically about an experience that you cannot have as a heterosexual male. Tarkov is not offering anything that, denuded of gender or sexual orientation, immediately loses contextual value. Don’t use crappy examples to defend a crappy position.

I had a... let’s be generous and call it a conversation... with an ADOS trying to school me on why I shouldn’t call myself either African American or Black. I pulled up short with them so fast the blowback would put your hair in corn rows. This is not a plantation and my ancestors worked too hard for self…
