“Damn, DP2 looks even rougher than the original, which is bad news because shoddy mechanics and terrible performance two of the main selling points were never really part of the charm”

I love that gratuitous leering is built into the infringeable characteristics of Mai Shiranui as a character.
“Others, like myself, or past Kotaku deputy Maddy Myers for Polygon, didn’t find the game’s queer representation to be enough to overcome its brutality and dark worldview.” This sounds like it would come out of the mouth of a right-wing caricature of woke reviewing. Culture has to be diverse, representative, positive,…
Yeah, a slew of mobile games scratch the itch of building things, putting things in order, watching things grow, and customizing them. Play those.
It’s not tough, it’s just - as always with these crappy takes - unclear what this means.
No, that should be up to video game blogs like this one.
A ‘huge’ fuckup is an error rate of 0.5%? Attack the concept of the bailout, not the execution which you are mathematically underequipped to deal with.
“Johnny Cash’s Hurt”. You fucking hack weirdo.
And of course it would be kind of shite to say “Because Brikabrak is dumb and violent and a yucky conservative, our party uses violence to resolve conflict instead of driving long-term structural societal change.” I’m not trolling - I really believe that we shouldn’t play-act violent conflict resolution, and I also…
People say this as if it were a revelation. Companies exist as profit-making structures maximizing the return on their resource investment; if you feel bad but still make money for the company, that’s all fine and dandy for the company. All employees are ‘people that will hurt the bottom line’ - just in different ways.
Meh. Better to just leave that out of it. Good writers can completely disguise themselves in their work or completely reveal themselves; at the end of the day it doesn’t matter. He can’t be trusted to do this work and we can’t be putting him and others in a position to do that work; what he actually wrote is…
“I don’t know about you, but “questionable experiments in the realm of pushing human limits” sounds an awful lot like crunch culture to me”
I mean... it’s just regular Japanese phrasing. Kono Harvey Weinstein isn’t dismissive; it’s just a regular way of speaking.
This is like saying “Eating tide pods shows why tide pods really don’t work” - numerical scores are fine but not if you’re insane enough to look only at the scores or aggregate scores, and not read anything else.
The only one of those I know is Bisquick, and I didn’t even know it was a syrup brand (because you wouldn’t bring in some other type of brand to a discussion on syrup brands, right? You wouldn’t be that desperate to find a known brand, right?)
Still, this is an incredibly strong brand to give up. Everybody knows it, at least vaguely, and most people can’t name a competing brand. Maybe the toxic dead weight of the brand was too much, but there’s no way whatever they come up with will be as well known. There was no reason for a syrup brand to be this well…
This man who only lives for petty squabbles and conflict will really be in hell if we give him exactly what he’s always wanted and always profited from! Good use of your brain there.
Don’t fucking encourage these dirtbag grifters. You want them to make more money telling us things that will surprise nobody and change nothing?
If you don’t fuck around, how will you ever find out?
