I’m surprised no one is commenting that the the little piggy pokemon’s name is Lechonk.  I want a Lechonk!

I mean, they basically already did most of the groundwork for that in Revenge of the Sith:

we have decided to respect the right of all eligible employees to vote on this issue

Never takes long for a Musk bro to show up and post something cringy and hilarious.   

It’s very simple: Genshin is a franchise made from scratch to be a gatcha title with all that entails while Ni No Kuni is a beloved singleplayer RPG series that they have then turned into a gatcha in order to cram crypto and NFT bs into it. It is not hard to see why these are not the same.

They cover genshin impact because it’s a popular video game with fans. None of these crypto or p2w games are nearly as mainstream as genshin is. It’s entirely possible to have criticism of a game while giving positive coverage to it. You see a bunch of positive and negative coverage of halo infinite on this site all

First, if you’re going to go after Gacha games, no more positive press about Genshin Impact.

“and our team will do our best to preserve the token values.”

As opposed to the other “gambling aimed at children” systems stretching back across 5+ decades (random collectable figures, ccg packs, baseball card packs, “toy surprise” capsule machines, “collect all X toys” kids meals, “collect all X toys” cereal boxes...)

One of the most frustrating elements of this being a gacha game is there are so many otherwise interesting ideas present in terms of gameplay, characters, story, lore, etc. that it becomes infuriating to see basically all of that brought down by the game’s own insistence on monetizing and exploiting every possible laye

Because I can think critically, I can move beyond the tone of one article, from one writer.

I agree, but talking about “peeling your Ditto” sounds like a euphemism.

You gotta’ wonder how someone can seriously, with a straight face, and complete certainty, say, “I am not your ethnicity, but I’m going to use the derogatory term specifically used to harm your ethnicity, but I’m not being racist. My ignorance, or inability to care, can’t be classified as racism, because I’m not

wake me when something is actually done about these traitors.

As a male victim of abuse, I already know I’m going to have a biased perspective, so I’ve personally done my best to stay out of it. I know that aspects of their relationship (the accusations against Heard specifically) I find that parallels my previous have been triggering. The insulting, the name calling, etc. all

I read get op-ed. It’s the most benign, fluff piece out there. Heard doesn’t even mention him by name, uses generic terms to refer to her past abuse and if you remove the parts about being a movie star pretty much any adult woman on the planet could’ve written it. If Depp had just controlled his massive ego and not

I tried really hard not to feel involved or invested in this trial—I don’t know anything about this relationship and I don’t want to assume innocence or guilt when such horrifying accounts of domestic violence exist on both sides.

Did NHP ever apologize for being an asshole to the better-in-every-way Rachel Bloom?
