There’s no reason why this wouldn’t be perfectly normal practice in any other market - it’s just that the market here is so wrapped up around a few actors that you could be buying a Google game on a Google platform to play on a Google platform and then show on another Google platform; they’re already making money off…

This is a scathing general dig on Kotaku.

How does this make sense? This alternate reality story about the South winning the Civil War and shaping society for the next 150 years is bad because our reality is pretty racist? Where in the show notes did it say “this is about the moment our country narrowly escaped racism and ended up completely racism free”?…

China: You can’t use this footage of a real tragic massacre, it casts our brutal regime in a negative light and our ideology can’t allow that!

It’s not very convincing to avoid criticism by saying ‘I won’t address any of your points because I know in my heart that my process was great - and you, the lowly reader, don’t have the right to ask about that, no matter how odd my recommendations are... in this comments section that we’ve provided.”

I hope it’s a lot like Kakegurui (even if the source materials are very different) in that it’s a low-budget extravaganza of high school drama club cosplayers chewing the scenery with abandon.

You misstyped skate punk.

Goddamnit, this is what literally nobody wanted. All we wanted was a Pepsi, just a Pepsi! All we asked for was a Pepsi, and they wouldn’t give it to us! It builds up inside.

People who believe in God in front of the extras are truly scum. Cut that shit out. The extras don’t deserve that.

“Anamorphic horses” is so dumb that it makes me happy.

So almost none of that was in the main movies but in ‘canon’ that most people don’t know and that Disney can wipe out whenever they feel like it. So yeah, TLJ brought new viewpoints to where it counts.

In what movie was that the case? The movies were and are perennially stuck up the butthole of the Skywalker lineage.

Like that’s what he wanted. Someone dumped a ton of money on his desk and said ‘Please take a break from real movies and help us with our shitty merchandise vehicle’, and he tried to make the best of it.

“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.
