Sure, let’s just stop letting women have a chance of competing or winning any sport ever again. Sounds like a great idea...

Even while I was hesitating clicking on the article in the first, I still ended up being utterly baffled by the really twisted logic here. And before anything else, I still have not seen a definite or, to be honest, even indicative research on what is the benefit, if any, of transathletes have in their sports,…

But the first thing people think about with Apu is the over-the-top voice.

*Doesn’t need to check notes*

I think the AC: Revelations trailer may be the best video game trailer ever. The swelling music and beats set to the action, and it banks on the viewer being familiar with/experienced Ezio’s journey up to that point, up to when the hood is pulled back and he is an old, worn soul. Perfect.

If you want to see someone get really upset about having to do their job, ask the person swabbing your hands to change their gloves first.

Just buy them Sekiro. Treat it like a modern day version of Spartan parenting, and if they beat it they’ll end up being a god at games later on.

Yeah I have no idea why it’s so opaque - the process is basically “someone on the staff happens to see your comment and think to un-grey you.” Given that we’re understaffed and reporting/writing/playing games/editing all day, none of us actually have the desire or bandwidth to spend much time looking for commenters to…

I like to think that one of the cool things about Kotaku is that you can come here for more information than you’ll get from a publisher’s press release. This is a good example of that. It’s not necessarily controversial or explosive info — it’s just context that you won’t find anywhere else.

You realize they are 1/8th of an inch thick right? It won’t flutter. 

I think they’ll eventually hammer out the details.

Well, fuck.

The fans discourse triple sucks for me because ultimately I don’t give a fuck about the audience. Most fandoms fucking suck.

i’ve seen far more discussion about how horrible its fans are then actual incidents of fans being horrible

The Expanse should’ve been a slam-dunk inclusion.  

yeah, you’re right, this is definitely not a world in which Gamer Gate is relevant at all anymore, gooooooood catch.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

I’ve been around long enough to know that yelling and generally being a delta bravo to people who are serving you food is a recipe for getting sub-standard or ‘enhanced’ food. The best outcome for you is that the business kicks you out without a crumb for your efforts.

So your incredible hot take is that jobs are a mental illness?

I know lots of people complain about streamers and being old and how stupid this all is, but sometimes it’s nice to tune in to something and just get positivity and enthusiasm for games. I've never seen this dude cynical about anything. And in 2019 that's a pretty rare thing.
