Full disclosure, I’ve pirated nintendo shit in the past, and am currently an active pirate of most other media, so my true kokoro truth is “fuck em”

That being said, I can see nintendo’s perspective here. Video showcases multiplayer mod that’s really only possible on pirated and emulated copies of the game. Increased…

lol, they actually think they matter:

Fuck ya. I love what they do with their new game plus modes. Guess I’ll be doing another playthrough of this at some point.

And it used to be the basis of English education; Look up the Eleven Plus Exam. Deciding your entire education, and thus prospects at 11 years old. And from there, if you were sorted into Public (really private, elitest) schools you might find further classification into the Houses...

We can’t keep supporting old hardware forever. It’s time to let the PS4 die so that the PS5 can fully shine...by...running remakes of gamecube and PS3 games.

The PS4 is 10 years old and cross-gen games look their age. It’s OK. At this point in a console’s life span, they basically get legacy ports of sports games. Father Time comes for them all. This is the console circle of life.

It’s been out nearly three years.  Time to let last generation die.

The last year or so of PC ports has pushed me fully back to console gaming. More and more, PC gaming seems to be asking you to brute force games with overwhelming GPU power and overkill amounts of VRAM with little to no optimization. Often, the answer to get games to run well is to lower graphics settings to a point…

Yup. There are authors who can pull it off better than others, by making the lore not actually matter than much and avoiding going into Basil Exposition/”As you know Bob...” mode, like Leigh Bardugo, so the world-building isn’t a problem. But Sanderson isn’t one of those, and decreasingly few successful fantasy…

Ah right there are only two choices, write like Sanderson or write like Tolkien.

“I imagine he’s pissed that Sanderson isn’t nearly as good at ’constructing sentences’ as he is ... and yet makes $20M/yr while the Wired editor makes, I dunno, $60k?” Several other people cited Sanderson’s kind personality and financial success as reasons why the profile should never have been published.

The lack of technical knowledge by From Software was perhaps “tolerable” during the Soulsborne days, as it was a niche product and genre. But with the massive success of E.R, there is no excuse anymore. Namco Bandai must have made millions in profits, so they can easily afford to bring external teams to assist From…

Too bad everything but the visuals was basically dog shit for well over a year and reputations linger.

“That’s a fucking good thing!”

Oh you mean the “Stupid YouTube face?” Yeah back in the day it was almost mandatory to have it in order to get more views they had a study done on it and videos without someone’s face got less clicks then those that did. Pretty sure though with how big LTT is they really don’t need to do those anymore.

The whole reaction-face-as-thumbnail really took off a few years ago and I hate it so much. I guess it must help raise # views or something but it is just a constant cringe-fest scrolling through youtube because of it.

This. The only developer that has implemented actual good ray tracing with good performance on consoles is Insomniac with Spider Man and Miles Morales.

Whats with this site and its need to be snarkey about every little thing? Game looks incredible, i’m sure me and other devs and fans will be studying it for many years to come.

I’m glad it went off the rails. It was a story that truly went for it, IMO, and I loved that about it. 

It seems that lately, on Kotaku, any chance to talk badly about Sony and PlayStation is too good to pass...
