I remember the day they started censoring those things. I put COK on a DDR 8th mix machine, and it changed it to DDR. Everyone around me was just as disappointed as I was!

It’s crazy to me that anybody would have a deeper reaction than rolling their eyes and ignoring it when coming upon one of these messages. Human nature is and probably always has been, to some degree, finding humor in bawdy and immature things. The writer asserts that graffiti of penises has some darker, misogynist…

Alternatively, these messages are hilarious because they game the messaging system to say things beyond what was clearly intended. One of the biggest chuckles I’ve had in the whole series was an“Amazing Trap Ahead” message parked outside Dark Sun Gwindolyn’s chambers. It’s an amazingly stupid joke which is exactly why…

One of my favorite laugh out loud moments in the original Darksouls was “Try finger, but hole” under a corpse bent over a rail.

Up next, “People are spelling ASS and TIT on high score boards in arcade games! OUTRAGE.”

I am drawn to the sensitive bullshit of Kotaku like a moth to a flame. 

Uh... bit of a stretch don’t you think?

I actually find sleazy messages in soulsbourne games to be quite comforting, they provide comedic relief in an otherwise cruel and unforgiving environment. I could be playing in a particularly difficult section, filled with rage and feel the fun draining away, then suddenly stumble onto some asinine chest joke that…

Yesterday around this time there was an article about being unable to find batteries for an Xbox controller, with everyone responding to ask why the author just hadn’t bought rechargeables by this point.  Just saying.

Never seen these messages, but reading these, they made me chuckle. I’ve been a gamer for ages now, and as a woman you’ll learn to grow a thick skin. It helps it’s humour I enjoy myself, as I do with humour directed at men. Don’t really see a problem with it to be honest, and I view it more as an act of ‘boys will be…

Did the same thing on my calculator at school, guess I’m a sexist twat.

This shit getting so old they already made a statue of it.

“Gaming was a mistake.”

I have no interest in reading this article. I only wanted to say that the thumbnail made me chuckle.

For example, the common title of “knight” would show up as “k***ht”

Slow news day, eh?

The deception is part of the game’s world. The game literally has NPCs who troll you.

Glad we’re tackling the complex issue of sexism in dark souls messages.

I think they’re funny. Amazing Chest Ahead I think was sort of the classic one after defeating O&S.

Who gives a shit? This is like saying “Blocks are great except kids spell BOOBS”.
