I mean, are you really drawing a parallel between the systemic, social justification of sexual assault (towards women) with someone remarking on the irony of a company that glorifies hackers as heroes getting hacked? Ok.

Ghost of Tsushima was mostly a joyless slog

“Everyone in Jin’s world is beautiful, but no one is horny.”

Pretty sure “snuff”, “snuffing”, “sparking”, and “Queen’s wings” or “beans” or whatever are not real UK-isms. They seem to have been made up for this game to avoid the actual cursing that real British people would do.

I’ll start this by saying that anyone is free to feel insulted by whatever they feel insulted by. But I - an Asian-American living in a third world country - really think this criticism is stretching a bit.

Honestly I don’t think there is a lot of overlap between the person who buys the digital only PS5 and the person who buys several hundred dollar collector editions. 

12 hours to write a sentence with 5 commas? What did you do with the time you saved not proofreading?

If you’re using a standalone emulator that can map multiple N64 controllers to one physical controller, wouldn’t it be better to use 2.1 or 2.2 (I can’t remember which one is “Strafe on P1 Stick”)?

Pre coffee so this will be a little rambly i bet

I’m with you. It’s a really good game, but it does feel more like a very polished indie game than a AAA tentpole title, despite SES trying to market it as such. I think it will spike in popularity on the PS Game Pass (I can’t ever remember what it’s called now) specifically because people have probably put off buying…

Ah, Xianxia: every good Xianxia novel is good in its own unique way, and every bad one exists because the writer thinks they weren’t popular in high school because they weren’t powerful enough to ruthlessly murder some bullies.

Capitalist society is hellscape enough for us adults, with every little damn facet of daily existence carrying a price. The commenters arguing that kids can (and should) be expected to learn about debt the hard way lack empathy and understanding that kids lack the developmental capacity to “buyer beware.”

As someone who is indifferent, but leans slightly towards not wanting the souls games to have an easy mode, I’m glad this mod exists. Let people do what they want when the dev doesn’t has to be involved. 

I’m not at that clouds.  Im yelling at the chem trails!

So many businesses struggle to see things from the customer’s viewpoint. Stadia should never have been marketed to the sort of gamer who already owns a library of console and/or PC titles, because there’s no real value for that consumer. It should have been marketed from the beginning to the casual gamer who is…

I haven’t gotten to the point yet where I’m getting death-stares in public, since I just started HRT in the middle of last year, but like, it took me YEARS to get to this point because of the sheer terror of merely existing in a world where a good portion of society would love to see me end up dead in the gutter.

Then…

On PC at least it’s always been a good to great experience so I’m surprised it had bad steam reviews. I’m not going to pretend the console version weren’t a mess but on PC it felt very “par for the course” bugs and stability wise.

Nah, they’re pretty standard corporate bollocks.

This is the take.
