It sounds like it was already a controversy within the team and this complaint re-opened the discussion, and they changed their minds.

Also, not remotely sexual? This is the pose my cat makes when she’s in heat.

Now, I’m fine with sex in games, I think more games should deal with adult topics in fact. But in this case

I think sexuality in games is great, if it’s handled correctly. This is simply a case where it was not handled very well. It’s not as bad as, say, the shower scene in Metal Gear: Phantom Pain (or anything else involving Quiet), but it’s dangling somewhere on that same precipice.

Anyway it’s such a minor detail and no

AAA developers are not going to be the ones exploring new markets. They’re already the king of their respective hills and R&D is expensive and risky. They’re not going to spend all their resources doing something new, they’re going to let indie and startup developers figure out all the kinks and then swoop in with

No he could only steal people’s superpowers and then shove them off of cliffs, or fly people out to the desert and deprive them of drinking water, or mock Jimmy Olsen when he gets turned into a donkey, or murder Lois Lane by cutting the oxygen supply to her space suit.

Because it was classic Superman.

This is the bad internets, right here. In this corner we have a guy who makes his whole career off of his hatred for things that no one else cares about and encourages toxic, abusive behavior from his grotesque cabal of followers. In that corner we have a developer who would be completely lost in the sea of shovelware

Donald would win, but it wouldn't be pretty.

“Blizzard intends to tell a somewhat serious story in this universe, and if everybody’s a cartoon character pastiche or reference, it might be a little hard to lose myself in it.”

“So... who’s Jason and why did you keep shouting his name when we were making love?”

If Nintendo did this, everyone would be making fan theories. But since Ubisoft did it, we’re all going to bitch about the price of the game.

Well, project managment tools are a given; without that, your project is a flustercluck right out of the gate. But even with good tools in place you have to deal with the fact that people on your team may not be very good at using them, or were not trained properly how to use them, or think they’re too busy to use

It often involves bad managment but I’d say it’s unfair to pin the blame entirely on that. It’s just frankly super difficult for a large group of people to operate at peak productivity. Things that a small team can sort out in a five minute conversation take weeks of meetings on a large team. A small change in one

Minecraft would certainly be a AAA game under your definition, but I don’t know anyone who would use “AAA” in that way. It’s not always associated with budget but it IS always associated with production value. You may be correct about the original meaning of the term, but it has become divorced from that meaning, and

Over the past decade within the industry I have never, ever heard anyone, even in high-level positions, refer to “AAA” as anything other than “high end production values/user experience”. Maybe that’s not how the term was born, maybe that’s not what it’s supposed to mean, maybe that’s not what it means everywhere

I have a plugin for Chrome that replaces “literally” with “actually factually”. It made the internet about 10% more tolerable.

More Raid mode! Please!

Probably not an intended theft. My guess is that it was placeholder art and whoever made this trailer didn’t know it was a placeholder.

I think they’d have to overhaul the way gun stats work in order for it to work with mouse/keyboard controls. I feel like PC gamers with their 360 midair noscopes and such would get really frustrated with having stats dictate the handling of the guns rather than menu options.

New head-canon: He got this job out in the woods because he’s an unsightly shape-shifting chimera who has been chased away from civilized society by stone-throwers and religious zealots.

Orrrrrrr I’ve been gaming since the 80's and I just like the new Lara Croft better.

Judging by all those loose cables, it’d play a lot like QWOP.
