These giant companies always, ALWAYS burden themselves with multiple layers of redundancies, ones that can be avoided but they never do.

Some people see greed as something to be ashamed of, others embrace it, what can you do? I’m glad you reminded me he did that though Its nice to remember not everyone is shady

It sucks the layoffs are here but acti/blizz’s stagnation was always heading in this direction blizzard especially have been riding a dying horse for far too long. Activision themselves just suffer from the same chronic mismanagement that all of the big publishers suffer from.

Remember when Iwata (and the rest of the board) took a 50% cut to his $770.000 salary because Nintendo wasn’t doing as well as expected?.

A shame that the Activision CEO only makes like $30 million and can’t afford it 

No superpower is conquers more surely than a plucky, fresh faced, American, girl next door type, with a healthy glow about her, expressing righteous anger for the plight of the weak and innocent.

I just see it as her screaming back at a skrull who screamed first? Lol reading too much fantasy into what you're seeing.

I’m looking forward to a Big 90's soundtrack.

I’m super excited about this, but I’m hoping much of this film is deeply secret. The trailers are really not giving us much.

One more month. Just one more month. Just the shortest month.

Goddamn, this and Avengers can’t happen soon enough. I swear it feels like the time stone is being used on reality right now, and we’re never going to actually get there.

dawg you want to punch someone in the face for dissing shoe culture. if i ever wrap myself that deep into something so banal and unimportant i’ll pay you to kill me

lol who gives a shit? like, if i’ve already made clear my utter contempt for your bullshit “culture” i don’t know why you think dunking on my hypothetical shoes would be a sick burn. it’s like how those alt-right dipshits keep calling people “cuck” or “soyboy” — it’s only insulting to the people who buy into the…

People will be confused by this because the summary was explicitly worded to make it confusing. By listing “Epic Games” first and not saying the name of the game, you make the reader assume that Epic is the subject. But then you would get less clicks (and maybe less comments because people like me would come to…

So you mean a dev made a mistake, but Gamers will find a way to use this as further evidence to why Epic sucks and a monopolistic Steam store is really actually just a good thing for everyone, guys.

People THINK originality is derived from mass produced goods. But it’s not. Having the only yellow iphone in your group of friends doesn’t make you original. It makes you 1 of 10 people to have an 1 of 10M yellow iphones in the world. Big fucking deal. Same for shoes.

Nothing says original like mass produced shoes sewn by a child in Indonesia.

Upset he hit a little too close for comfort, are we?

all three of those categories are wholly encompassed by a wider circle labelled “unaccountably smug boring people”

But it’s been this way for years. I’m not dragging the author or sneakerheads, but I remember people forming lines out Walter’s when I was a little kid and that was a long time ago. No way all of them were there because they liked sneakers. They knew they could stand in line, cop Jordans for $200, and flip it for…

This. “Sneaker culture” is nothing but commodity fetishism and no one should mourn it.
