So your afaid to put mail in your own fucking mailbox? Also you dont need stamps to mail your ballot. It’s prepaid postage, ya dope. Thank god most CA voters aren’t as useless and misinformed as your are.

I know there’s a desire to hype this election like it’s close, but it isn’t. Newsom holds a commanding lead. I just don’t feel comfortable asking California voters who are scared of COVID to risk their health to vote in an election which isn’t close.

Nope. Few, if any, PlayStation games will have two-way save transfers. And even the one-way PS4->PS5 transfers are stupidly involved.

I’ve never understood why Sony and Nintendo are just so anti-consumer friendly, and seem to just make everything more difficult than it needs to be.

Depends on your taste. Nothing that was ever offered on a Sony console came close to Forza Horizon 3 &4 for me.
And yes, those are “Xbox” exclusive, speaking of Xbox as an ecosystem, because on PC you also mostly use their xbox app when you are playing cross-platform purchases (those don’t work on steam where you can…

Yes, white people who want to do harm and see black people as less , they have no right to mandate that. But white people who are running a multi billion dollar company and are trying to stop the spread of a deadly illness and have a full season can do that. Also there are white people too in the NBA, along with…

When you get sick with covid who the fuck do you think you are spreading it to? You think you’re givin’ it to rich white karen? No you’re giving it to your parents, your kids, your neighbors basically you are putting your own people at risk.

I pre-ordered FC6, on the strengths of the past games, all of which I enjoyed for various reasons, some the same, some different. I want my fun shooty sandbox with emergent gameplay, and I also want a narrative experience and thread to enjoy, without time restrictions that forming a “believable” narrative would…

This particular tidbit really made me chuckle:

Most ethical stances today involve a compromise, that’s just the reality of the system we live in. You’ve evidently chosen your compromise as dragging in the thousands of people who work on AAA films and video games as collateral damage so you can try to punish the well-insulated execs that are the actual problem; perh…

Hmm...not too sure how I feel about this article honestly. It feels kinda...tacky? I don’t know. If I want a score for a game, I’m gonna go to IGN or GameSpot, if I want to know anything deeper than that, I’m going to come here to Kotaku where I know you guys will be looking at things in a very different light than…

There’s few things I dislike more than metacriticism on other folks’ criticism,. It’s self-indulgent, preachy, petty and often incredibly hypocritical. Particularly when it comes from Kotaku, a website which couldn’t resist the clickbait that is Cyberpunk 2077 to prop up its (poor) review of The Ascent and indulged in…

Far Cry has always been in the exploitation genre, Kotaku is just waiting to bite down acting like this is a new thing. It’s tiresome really, either consume the product or don’t give them money. Your journalistic integrity is lost when you act like Ubisoft didn’t become a brand using exploitation from Clancy to Creed,…

Well, it seemed like Kotaku was loading up on the rage-bait with the editor change, but this article clinched it for me. I can’t read this site anymore. I mean, I’m a literature nerd who is very interested to see if the game lives up to its promised themes, but for god’s sake, it was a gameplay-oriented preview! Of…

So I do commend you for bringing up Ubisoft’s toxicity, especially as this is the most I’ve seen it brought up in article about their games. But I do have to call out that not too long ago there was an article on here gushing about the new asscreed dlc without any mention of the allegations, iirc. And sometimes when…

Pretty bold to call out other publications and try to tell them how to do their job. It takes you 350 words to get to what I suspect is the reason for this – that during preview phases the press is sometimes only shown part of the game so it’s hard for them to tell at this stage how the narrative will go. Can’t help…

Don’t you think you’re reading a little to much into an open world shoot’em up video game? 

It’s a dumb series built around shooting nameless enemies, hunting animals for their skins, taking down forts, and blowing shit up. Personally, I really don’t need it to be more than that. 

It literally is a white man attacking a black man. The Root didn’t make it that. It is that.
