Oh, Bobby. Bobby, Bobby, Bobby. After all you have said and done, the dreams you have destroyed and the wealth you have hoarded and your own history of sexual misconduct, I think I speak for all of us: nobody gives a fuck about what you have to say.

And Soldier doesn’t even get interesting combat powers until 2. Playing a soldier in 1 sounds like a complete bore gameplay-mechanics-wise.

Who plays soldier? That’s like walking into a 5 star restaurant and asking for cornflakes.

The only reason she has a stream is because people want to fuck her, but pointing out that it might have some influence on this article somehow makes you immature.

Same person also did give the same cat alcohol, which as I understand it is one of the most poisonous things to cats (even in tiny amounts).

No that was someone else who grabbed her cat from the desk and dropped it back down to the floor over her head and children raised on anthropomorphic cartoon characters called it abuse.

I never said I had an “issue,” with it. I just find it odd that someone wrote more than 5,500 words about the cultural impact of a sex worker licking a microphone — on a gaming website.

I more noticed how this is the first one of these articles where the header image doesn’t have the sad feel of someone trying to justify why they had 10 tabs of scantily clad women on twitch open...

It’s about ethics in journa.....I’M KIDDING I’M KIDDING.  

Yeah, I hate it when Kotaku or any site really gives puff pieces to assholes like this. It really feels like the article just takes her side that it was meant to be a “joke” and just never comes back to that. Because “ironic” bigotry eventually results in actual bigotry.

For your own sake Nathan, you really need a new beat.

When he's done he'll be roughly the size of 2333 barges

I like Ross, and the wider Grumps crew, but FFIVX has more name recognition amongst the wider gaming audience, with it having a free trial, and includes the entirety of A Realm Reborn AND the award-winning Heavensward expansion up to level 60 with no restrictions on playtime? Sign up, and enjoy Eorzea today!

Yoshi-P addressed this in a post this morning. It came down to that because of the shortage, even throwing more money at this issue isn’t really a possibility because it’s such an issue for everyone. They already did a small upgrade to NA servers earlier in the year, so things could be worse, but it’ll probably be a…

Yeah, as a new player, I’m not really convinced that a whole lot is lost here. It’s actually kind of jarring to see large clusters of characters standing around doing nothing at all. So, really all that’s lost are a few performers who play music (a lot of which is also completely out of place modern pop and rock)…

Well, no, it’s not an impossibility. It would just be more expensive than usual. But they effectively have infinite money to throw around in order to make this game go right, and they’re kind of obligated to do so given it’s by FAR their biggest cash cow. The main difference currently is that they usually plan server…

Yeah, there’s definitely gonna be a falloff period from this when the streamer fans the game isn’t really for them.

Especially when they *know* the heavy congestion won’t last long as most people will binge it for a bit for free and then bail with a predictable percentage sticking around 

> Yeah they do weird, sometimes disruptive shit (like inflate queue times), but if they were gone, your local watering hole (or your MMO) would be lesser for it.

Once you’ve played FFXIV for a while, you find that this is the normal response when a heavy influx of players happens. Usually this happens at the start of an expansion. When it dies down, if post-ARR was the slog it was I’d say that’d be what does it but who knows when it’ll happen since they cut out a lot of it,…
