I just can’t believe we’re still in this ‘gamer-gate’ era of bullshit because of these sad pathetic boys with their chauvanistic, racist ideals that ANGERY because they aren’t 100% being catered to. And their usage of the term ‘woke’ is just as pathetic.

Like...it’s ironic that they’ve co-opted a black term in the…

I mean, you speak the truth.

I will say, however, that after going back and playing FF 1-9 on several occasions, some of them just hit different. Like FFIX is way underrated and FFVIII, in spite of having many excellent traits, just doesn’t stand up as well.

I will forever be too proud to admit that FFVII is better…

I’m enjoying the slow-burn of the grind and this is someone who hates to grind! It was the same when I played Helldivers (1) and I’m getting that sense of enjoyment again. Having JUST enough to scrape by on a mission and figuring out the best strategies with your friends is where the fun comes in. Nothing happens…

This comment is SEVERELY underrated.

I’m confused. I have yet to see more than a handful of truly next gen games. It feels like we barely have enough legitimate next-gen titles to launch a console with. Unless the PS6 comes with something truly unbelievable I’m probably going to hold out until the “pro” variant comes out and stick with PC gaming in the…

It me

There are some seriously heartwarming stories here! Thanks for sharing, y’all!

Greed always has a way of ruining everything it touches. A tale as old as time.

These suits that run companies like this are just so out of touch with reality and only seek to hit arbitrary goals at the cost of humans

For me it seems like a nice combination between Mario World and Mario 3, but with all the quality of life improvements we have with modern video games.

It’s genuinely really fun and there are some challenges to be had if you want to 100% the game. Outside of that, it’s fairly easy, but it’s so entertaining it hardly…

Could there simply be an option to have them activate only once? I’d rather prefer that. I don’t mind the talking flowers, but I don’t need to hear the same line over and over if I happen to backtrack

Wow. What a run. I’ve been here since the Crecente days and I gotta say it’s been a good one here at Kotaku. But I gotta say it’s time for me to leave too. Not to say that this site isn’t in great hands. It’s just not the same as it used to be. I can’t describe it, but here we are anyway. Be well, Luke.

Gamers is synonymous with shitty dudes that never fully matured into men in spite of their age.
And then there’s the rest of us that enjoy video games and have respect for women (and other people in general). I wish there was a convenient word for that

*overgrown boys* react poorly

It’s called being ‘First to market’ and it is a concept that exists along just about any industry or business

We will miss you, Fahey. The world was truly blessed by your presence.

Literally any male dominated industry is going to have the same exact type of story. Your precious games company included.

I’m a cis-het male so take this as you will:
There are a lot of grown ass boys that never grow mature enough to gain the self-awareness that 90% of their brain functions are controlled by their…

to that extent, same goes for the Nightbird.

No. No. No. No. No.

Round Earther????? How about not giving credence to people who reject science and not giving them grounds for a debate. It’s just Earth. It’s not flat. End of story.

Don’t give bad opinions the same weight as actual facts. Period!

“What’s interesting here is seeing an EA executive provide this handy list of things to blame for the game’s busted launch, and none of those things involve EA executives.”

You should have a brain and logic enhancement surgery, because nothing you say makes any damn sense. Go eat your cereal.
