What?  Japanese devs are concerned with gameplay and systems first?  Have you even played FF13 or FF15?  Hell Tales of Arise got a ton of love and that game is fucking hot garbage (and I say this as someone who used Tales of Besaria to wash the filthy that is FF15 out of my mouth, literally immediately after i…

Come on....since when do we expect billionaires to pay consequences for their actions?  He has lost billions in net worth on paper....how can he borrow against less money?  This is America, we socialize risk for the wealthy, and have rugged brutal capitalism for the poors.  Its just that a whole bunch of americans…

The right hates the left and demonizes them. But the bulk of our economy is college educated professionals, in terms of consumer spending. Those people vote Democratic. Millenials are now the largest demographic and only growing in economic power. Disproportionately democrat compared to prior generations.  The GOP…

Wily Coyote can assemble traps with instructions.  I dont think trump could assemble duplex lego with step by step instructions.

he came out of wealthy apartheid era South Africa...he was always going to align with the conservatives.  

Unless the GOP wins the Govenership in NY, which it might since the DINO mayor of NY has stoked fears of crime.  Then the Govenor can just pardon trump.  If he gets convicted, expect Trump to appeal up to SCOTUS, where they will ignore legal precedent and established law to rule in his favor...they have been ignoring…

......”get a hold on the current issues” Because we wont. Ever. The GOP has decided they only want immigration from white christian countries, of people who will vote for them. Strangely no one on the GOP seems to care about people coming here illegally from Europe...(and they definitely do). The US has the strongest…

You mean the right wing is blatantly hypocritical?  No....the party that claims to support family values...backed Trump?  A man who cheated on his first wife, was accused during the divorce of physical abuse, who brought his mistress to a family vacation in aspen, who during his divorce from his first wife, bragged…

particularly because the report is that subscriber growth for gamespass is slowing.  Reportedly PS5 has still outsold series x to date, despite a few months where Series X dominated, and now PS5 supply is ticking up.

I mean Nintendo is a game company.  Sony’s primary business might be games now...but that has a lot to do with their retreat from most aspects of consumer electronics.  Sony makes TVs, and great headphones and other sound systems, but never really became a serious mobile player and are there just not remotely…

Tencent wasnt ready at the time.  Google or Amazon.  I mean in other timelines, Disney recognizes that they should be controlling their IP in all mediums and properly invested in gaming studios in the 80s and the 90s.  I contiuously find it amazing that companies that owned a bunch of IP, dont have their own game…

I dont know, I think Sony does a fairly decent job when you realize they dont have the spare billions that MS does, that Sony’s biggest profit center is its games division...and that they had a massive commitment to exclusives and single player titles from the ps3 that they kept onto ps4 and now ps5.  Its only now…

I recall reading somewhere that the xbox division was net in the red until like 2011.  Like that is nuts, they made a ten year investment and there is probably a good argument that MS could have been spending that money on a better investment into the mobile market.  Google gives out android for free then harvests…

Im a 41 year old white male, home owner, with a professional degree, making six figures.  The minute he let Kanye back on, I left twitter.  I have no delusion that I will cause anyone else to follow me (i dont know how many followers I had, but a dozen or so...maybe.  Mostly friends and such.  However, I am a prime…

but like a grade inflated C- right?  Like 30 years ago that would have been a D or D - at best.

i dont know, they do a lot of simping for Trump.  The real debate is who is the bigger dbag.  Trump is probably the king, but Musk seems intent on having trump hold his hair plugs.

My cousin makes a solid argument that gamergate was really the coming out party for the alt right.  They figured out how to coalesce their user boards and target things.  They are behind most online down voting of any movie with female or minority lead.  Its how you end up with some marvel movie with a user score of…

Yeah, I know actively root for them to announce movies where they change the gender, or sexual identity, or race of a long running character just to watch grown men melt down about fictional characters.  

Its actually scary to thnk about how much damage the right could be doing if so much of the money that comes there way wasnt just grifted. Im just beyond disgusted with the US right now. How the fuck is the Georgia Senate race remotely close. Walker cant speak at trumps level of incoherence.....but he has an R next to…

Doesnt Tencent or some other chinese dev own a big chunk of Plat now?
