QA may have caught it, and filed a defect for it.
BUT, since it doesn’t affect the actual functionality of the game, some Dev Manager probably de-prioritized it as a ‘fix if/when we can/want to’.

You grossly overestimate the power of QA, and any potential respect for their work by developers.

Right? I remember the promotional Terminator skin for Gears 5, and how everyone on the Locust side would be using it, turning PvP into COG vs. Terminators because the T-800 skin was just stupidly advantageous. It didn’t have any voice lines and replicated the mechanical step sounds of the COG Deebee, meaning you lose…

It was probably like: “Management wants us to make skins for these esports teams, so put their names and team colors in the game. I don’t care if it looks stupid. This is what the bosses want.”

Thank you for not making this a slideshow - and on an unrelated side note (well, brought on by the reminder from the phrasing), happy Thanksgiving Kotaku.

Most of the articles I’ve seen about this don’t mention that it was suicide.

I’ve tried to kill myself twice and don’t need to be lectured on the complexity of what causes people to do this. I said clearly I didn’t know him or what his personal life was like. When I wrote my comment, there were only three others here, two were jokes and one was an action figure tribute. Having struggled with…

I obviously don’t know the guy at all and have no idea how he was in his personal life but I saw him at a few cons and there was always something kind of sad about him. I can’t imagine it was terribly easy to make a career out of something you did in your early 20s and kept stretching back to. Over. And over. And…

Maybe those other things are also problems then?

Plenty of people don’t want to look into the night sky and see commercialized visual pollution, dipshit

If my time playing Gran Turismo translates to the real world (lmao), cars need to slow down quite a bit to hug the inner lines compared to their max speed. Now normally this is a net gain because there’s no way to turn sharp enough at max speed to stay off the wall regardless of your line, but in this case he’s…

There’s nothing more pathetic than some incel simping for Musk. Seek help.

Welp, now I gotta buy bayonetta 3.

Welp, there goes any sympathy I had.

I’ll have a second comment about this post but since there’s no other good place to talk about this I’ll do it here:

I pirate movies I own copies of because I’m sometimes too lazy to go get the disc. Ease-of-access is definitely not something to underestimate the value of.

Yeah, I’ve definitely bought games I already owned on older hardware simply because it was way easier to spend a few bucks and have it available right away on the hardware I’m already using then digging something out of storage.

Why the hell are you so angry?

It’s mostly fine except for the fact that as a F2P, you can only unlock 3 of the 5 locked mech suits with incredible grind. You don’t get any currency that can be used to unlock mech suits in your challenges (Except for the beginner challenges which are finite in quantity) or by completing matchs.

I played a few matches last night. There’s a premium battle pass and most of the purchasables are cosmetics. But frankly the cosmetics look like ass from what I’ve seen. Most of them are just recolours and textures which make the Mobile suits look worse for the most part.
