I was wondering the exact same thing. I understand a ‘casual gamer’ or someone put off by the colourful art style (‘Nintendo makes games for kids’ remark from back in the GameCube days) - but anyone who actually likes playing good games (I hope that would be reviewers) can recognise the quality of the Pikmin series…

Somewhere out there, in the cold, dark woods, there’s a tree crying right now. A weeping willow if you will...

I have that exact same excerpt in my clipboard ready to paste, but you beat me to it.

“It’s Shigeru Miyamoto’s beloved child, and we accept there will have to be more Pikmin if there’s to be more of everything else we would rather he were focusing on at Nintendo.”

HOW DARE YOU

I’ve got a Marc rebillet clip as an alarm waking me up every morning, and I never want to use anything else ever again.

Going by the preponderance of the articles I’ve seen by him recently, it’s unclear to me whether Luke still plays games.

But... video games? Is Billy Mitchell on there or something?

$35 for a game like this, that can potentially offer hundreds of hours of playtime, is a fucking bargain.

I’m generally all for anti-trust laws but in this case you have a company known for a generally respectful workplace and decent pay (relative to the standards of corporate America) taking over an absolute cesspool of a company that has treated their female employees and customers like crap. Seems like the lives of…

Reading the.. case filed. Im not sure the people are in the right head space. most of these are weak arguments. I believe they are filing simply to stop CoD from falling under MS’s control. Which again, weak argument. 

Gotta invent stories somehow when you are a game news site... 

Your comment is just as eloquent and articulate as this whole article by Kotaku.

Agree just like the writings in the article. Eew.

I’m not on the “AI-created art is good” bandwagon, but I’m not convinced it’s bad. I think the ethical question rests largely on how it’s used (like with most technology). Corporations using AI-created art to get around paying artists what they’re worth? Yeah, that’s pretty fucking evil. There’s no getting around…

Fucking ew.
