Akechi is a genuinely awful person. Having a bad childhood doesn’t excuse becoming a monster when you get older, and he is very clearly smart enough to know everything he did was horribly wrong. 

That sounds like a lot more work than these AI people are willing to do though.

Probably. If you look at most blogs like this, they almost never link outside of their own ecosystem unless they are getting some kind of affiliate pay. Nintendo Life is another site that’s really bad about this.

One of these things is not like the others...one of these things just doesn’t belong... *sings*

I know it’s a stereotype but in a lot of Asian fiction, and I mean a lot, that is the ideal women. Women are either perfect porcelain dolls who are well-behaved and quiet no matter how powerful they are, or they’re allowed to have some agency beyond that but typically only for comedic value, or they’re evil.

The issue with doing something with the suburbs to similar effect is that unlike tokyo, or most city areas, the suburbs were never designed for everyday life.

No it’s not. Fortnite made 3000 dollars in the time it took me to write the word ‘dollars.’ If they want to buy the eternal copyright for a piece of art, they can pay at least what they make in, I don’t know, an hour.

Probably because two entire generations of people were raised to believe they could change the world, and now half of them are in their 30s and 40s and discovering every roadblock those same people who told us we could change the world have put up to stop us.

You know what they say. Write what you know.

Oh damn I better see a doctor.

I got the impression he’s not so much migrating as going to do something else.

WHY are we talking LIKE we don’t HAVE CONTROL over our voice?

I expect nothing and I’m still disappointed.

The internet should be a utility.

I’m so jaded about konami at this point that this announcement just makes me nervous instead of happy.

I mean, I didn’t enjoy the game but I know people who love it. I don’t understand why they aren’t trying to put it on PC or console before just killing it...

Because 400 years of puritian repression.
