The original lead developer was a GamerGate chud, and the current developers invented a trans character with a cringey name for the sole purpose of deflecting criticism. Plus there’s the fact that the game is about fighting a race that’s a Jewish stereotype. Many of the devs do share her views.

Yep, as soon as I read that line, I was like, damn Kotaku really thinks all of it’s readership is really into Twitch. I guess that explains why we get so many articles like this.

No my dude. No reasonable person is saying that anyone playing this game is as bad as Hitler. What I’m saying is that if you choose to buy and play the game, you care more about playing the game than you do about JK’s bigotry. And that’s fine if that’s the decision you want to make, but own it.

“You know Sweet Anita. You’ve seen her streams, stumbled across her Twitter account, or watched clips of her on TikTok.”

No, I don’t, and no, I haven’t. I have never heard of this person before now. The whole twitch-streamer sphere really doesn’t grasp how insular it is, does it? If you’re not parts of that ecosystem,…

Something that I learned many years ago and I think some people miss is that the pricing on a product is generally based not on what it cost to produce but instead on what people are willing to pay.

lol Harry Potter lore is so bad. Rowling was really telling who she was all these years ago and since we were teens, well I was, we just couldn’t see it. After watching a few vids especially of the symbols and themes and veiled stereotypes, Rowling is a terrible person.  

Probably. Evangelicals aren’t known for logical consistency.  For example, pro-life/pro-gun/pro-death penalty/anti-universal health care.

Transphobes: Wow, trans people are always so dramatic. MAYBE I’d support them if they didn’t act like victims all the time.

I’m not in it for the titillation, sometimes it bugs me that otherwise realistic games just kinda... pretend this stuff doesn’t exist. People have genitals! All the time! Even when they’re not being used for sexy stuff! Can’t we just accept that?

So much of this is disturbing.

Mistakes like this happen far too often and this is why “$x off” in titles is such click bait. They just just say the dang price flat out, but clicks.

Ha ha yeah I was like, “I don’t need a new Xbox controller but for $5 I can always keep it as a backup.” Never mind!

JPEG stands for Joint Photographics Experts Group, so I assume you pronounce it jay-feg, right? And SCUBA from Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus is skuh-ba with a short U and A?

Beats me. Show me where “the rules” are written and maybe I could answer that. But I’m pretty okay with being “intolerant” of believing that rape isn’t rape if it’s not violent even if so, and whoever “you guys” means exactly, that’s probably true of the rest of them. It’s common in my culture (the United States) to…

Mob was a good watch, sure, but anime of the decade?? In a decade that brought us things like Steins;Gate, Ping Pong, Tatami Galaxy, Kids on the Slope, Ano Hana, No Game No Life, Promised Neverland S1, Shinsekai Yori, Made in Abyss, Hunter x Hunter, Madoka Magica, Saiki K, Grand Blue, SKET Dance...

i feel like everybody should watch more than shonen series

It’s pretty good...for a shonen.

Maybe a computer-knower can tell me if I’m wrong, but does this maybe have something to do with the super fast data transfer from the SSD on the PS5? Like, the PS5 is pulling data straight from the disk at times & can get away with less RAM as a result, but because PC setups vary so wildly they’re suggesting you have…

Sorry, I’ll have to disagree with middle school girls maturing faster than their male peers.

After all, every guy in his twenties at some point sees a girl he has feelings for choose a much older man instead.
