The Limgrave Tree Sentinel being on that list is low key hilarious because the game puts him as the first thing you see when you get started without telling you its better to leave him be for a bit and come back when you’re stronger.

Yesssssss. Rotten Breath. Radahn’s kryptonite.

I am not gonna get caught up in this until the game releases but that quote was limited and the full quote makes a bit more sense

Spider-men? Spiders-man?

To be fair though, the Wheel of Time had the advantage of Robert Jordan having a rough idea on the time he had left, and was able to put together enough notes and spend the time with Brandon Sanderson before his passing to give him as much as he could to end the series successfully. 

I think in a situation like this, where story beats and character ideas have already been at least roughly sketched out, and the same rank and file people are doing so much of the work, it...can’t be as bad as some other attempts.

There’s been a few stories I’ve read and followed that have been unfortunate enough to have their writers die during writing. Most of the time there’s nothing to be done. When they do attempt to finish it, often it doesn’t go well, but the major success (in my opinion) was the Wheel of Time series. Reading this, left…

In defense of Musk (something I’d never thought I’d say...), I work my ass off all day, raise two small kids, and have no one to cook and clean for me, and I still find time to play videgames and comment on Kotaku... 

Having time to play a video game is proof that being a CEO is not a full time job? That’s a bit toxic point of view. I have a full time job and time to play video games such as Elden Ring. 

I understand that hating on Musk is trendy right now... but this is very similar to my build and this article is kind of reaching.

This is a reach, that’s a perfectly OK build. It is actually very cool and fun to run an int/dex build where you adjust towards mageiness or slashiness as necessary.

I just got done ranting to a coworker about the awful job Halo does at connecting their stories and everything interesting happening between games so what’s bitching another few hundred words about another piece of media that the writers had no idea what to do with.

The original PSA doesn’t make the claim, presumably it’s different enough that it’s coincidence. Just a really really bad one. Which makes sense if other reviewers haven’t caught on, it’s not really a widespread thing that was on anyone’s mind.

Hate to put myself near the line here, but I had always thought seizure warnings were the “this coffee is hot” of video games. I think I’ve seen them on nearly every game I’ve ever played, whether they have hard strobing effects or otherwise.

I had thought it was basically: if you’re prone to seizures, all games are…

It’s truly despicable that people are sending Liana seizure-triggering material in retaliation for bringing attention to this issue out of nothing but concern for others’ wellbeing. 😬

So I think I have my wires crossed. People aren’t actually thinking that CDPR intentionally implemented actual seizure inducing light patterns, right? And that in reality it just happens to accidentally mimic the mechanism? They weren’t like “ Yo Dave, let’s give some people epilepsy, that’ll show them.” I’m not a…

Vivi’s story doesn’t really resolve (and in fact just gets more confusing because apparently there are a bunch of Vivis now???) that just left a sour taste in my mouth.

The 57 cops quitting in solidarity was fake news:

Yup. I mentioned elsewhere that these characters aren’t the type who’d quit in the face of the current climate. Amy would run the damn precinct by herself before she’d give up on the community.

Terry Crews has already said the next season will address the current climate.

Satire is a very powerful tool that can affect social change. You can’t satirize the police by having the police in your police show quit the police.  George Carlin’s Cardinal Glick would not have been more effective as a character by…
