“But the following two decades were a different story. Anticipated entries like Final Fantasy XIII failed to reach sales expectations with the rise of Western RPGs such as TK (and many felt that train came off the rails starting with 2001’s Final Fantasy X).”

What is TK? I’ve been playing RPGs from both sides of the…

I am hoping the FTC adopts the reversal of fortune doctrine for all mergers.
The doctrine would allow for the breakup of any parties requesting that the government approve a potential merger if a preponderance of stakeholders (i.e. posters) determine that the conversation around the merger has gone on too long and…

“How could this happen?” I thought to myself until I hit the magic words “SAP conversion” and it all made sense.

100%, the kids are not alright

You haven’t heard of them, even if you are using the same platforms because of demographically derived algorithmic bubbles. It’s similar to the way that even people who were terminally hooked in to instgram had no idea who Andrew Tate was, because they were not teenage boys, the platform didn’t serve them that content.

Companies must love it when their Twitter video teaser gets absolutely hobbled by Twitter’s dogshit video compression.

Heartening to see cards from the Magic 30th anniversary edition set in their natural habitat.

Thumbnail made me think this was a ceiling mount for mason jars, but it turns out to be a product I don’t need.

They pay creators for content that is included in their updates, the company exists as it does today because they focused on finding highly talented modders from the community and hiring them.

Someone needs to tell Hollywood that not every foreign property needs a live action, western version.

It’s because he says Kiyru-chan in a very cute way.

While I appreciate that this took a lot of time and hard work, thanks but no thanks. I prefer that the voices in text based games sound like I imagine they do.

I would prefer if my car did not play video games, or display my media preferences in the style of an early 2000's forum signature.

Blizzard pulling the old “New XBOX box, mint condition” eBay scam.

I already bought this because I am a huge Front Mission fan, knowing that there was going to be some clunk to this one.
While I am glad to see anything turn based from this series after Left Alive and Front Mission Evolved. It is bittersweet to see this not get the amount of polish that I’d have liked, while also…

No I mean the plastic bottle itself, there’s very little structure to a kewpie bottle so it feels more like a plastic sack full of mayonnaise than it does a bottle.

I love Kewpie, but I cannot stand how wormlike and squirmy the feel of the bottle is. It doesn’t stop me from using it, but it really really bothers me.

What if instead of crafting a weapon, I was given a quest to collect seventeen bear asses from seventeen different bear caves, and at the end of the quest I was given a pair of ass kicking boots?

I have played since release to the best that my schedule allows, while also finding time to play other games and I do not believe that I will reach 55 before the end of the season at the current rate.
I also am unwilling to pay $10 every season or any amount at all really, ever.

So as a casual, non-paying player I am…

That sucks a lot, and given that the choice is either grinding within a small window or paying money, I think just decided that this game doesn’t make it into my rotation anymore.
