No you don’t murder someone for breaking your things. The price of a car is not even in the same category as the price of a life.

Out of my family growing up, I think our dad was the only one who *didn’t* play video games, and still doesn’t. My mom was always playing monopoly on Gameboy or SNES, and my sister and I (female) were always fighting over the console RPGs.

This is the sort of thing I’ve been wondering about for a long time. The APIs that these third-party apps use are just, effectively, Web interfaces (usually something like SOAP or REST). So any time you open a forum in an app, you’re hitting up the site with dozens, if not hundreds, of Web requests.

It’s one of the few times it actually makes canonical sense. The story mode from the last game was all about time travel shenanigans so resetting the timeline is perfect. 

To be fair, it’s “Mortal Kombat 1" and not just “Mortal Kombat”. They somewhat learned from God of War’s folly.

This is something I respect about Japanese culture, the idea that “fairness” is important and not all about making money hand over fist. Like how electronics stores use a lottery system for high-demand products that gives normal people a fighting chance instead of everything going to whoever can click the buy button…

I feel like you completely missed the point of that video. On that note, I hope you didn’t watch this Indie World Showcase. The Saudi Arabian government has an 8% stake in Nintendo so any support you give to Nintendo (e.g. Youtube revenue) also helps fund the persecution of various minorities in Saudi Arabia.

Is it exhausting going through life perpetually trying to find things to be upset about?

Because it seems exhausting. Get off the internet and touch some grass.

Exactly. The video in question is literally shorter than a game trailer and can (more reasonably) be summed up as: “There’s no ethical consumption under Capitalism and also don’t form parasocial relationships with big names/companies.” It’s not whataboutism because it’s not part of any actual debate, plus it’s not…

This comment really makes you feel like someone who doesn’t get the point being made in the video.

This isn’t a “friendly reminder,” it’s stretching yourself into a pretzel to try and smear someone as a bigot.

Yeah, not quite. It’s a god damn comedy video. He’s not making a political statement or taking a stance on anything. It’s not like he went and tweeted “JK Rowling is the shit and only speaks the truth.” He’s making a funny video where he starts to play a game, then finds out it is linked to something controversial and…

I’ll take “ Missing the Joke “ for 200. 

Take a breath bud.

Way to misinterpret the message of the video (there is no ethical consumption in a capitalism society) while also dismissing the sexual and physical abusers Dunkey highlighted in said video.

I could have linked the Forbes article itself, but here is the information more succintly while also a link to the interview where Tony Khan made that statement:

I don’t wish any disaster for the game, even I’m not personally interested in it, but man has this development been funny from a pro wrestling perspective.
