Hold on, your entire argument is that the BBC never covers videogames? Because that’s demonstrably false.

There’s nothing toxic about the news, dawg. Blame the toxic people doing newsworthy things. And if you don’t like it DON’T CLICK... dipshit.

It’s not like there’s 3 feet of snow there - it’s in the high 50s in Rome right now. I’d rather not walk around naked at that temp, but it’s not out of the question.

I’m not at all saying this was your fault, but I do think it was kind of predictable. A plain old Yule log doesn’t do anything to reinforce their branding, nor does it help sell toys or DVDs.

Do you think there aren’t that many trans actors? Because there definitely are. Do you think they aren’t wonderful? If so, what’s your evidence to support that?

How many people have you talked to? Because I guarantee that Kotaku hears from a much larger sample size than “a couple of your buddies.”

Keep dreaming, my friend.

Really? The overwhelming opinion I’ve gleaned about this game is that it’s extremely mediocre, lacking a compelling story, with pretty laughable world-building.

You actually think this overwrought penis simulator could be as impactful on the games industry as Blade Runner? Wow... the delusions run deep in those who pre-ordered, apparently. Truly impressive stanning, dawg.

Wow, so this got explained to you in detail and you STILL don’t understand it? How do you tie your shoes in the morning? Chew gum and walk at the same time? Yours is truly a pitiful intellect.

“Kotaku reached out to CD Projekt Red about how it would issue refunds to such SOL gamers. The company declined to comment.” 

They’re “offering refunds” without any specific mechanism. Stop giving them credit for PR statements that they aren’t backing up with action.

Found the CDPR damage-control account!

Moviepass didn’t hurt their business - it increased it. The theater always got full ticket price from any Moviepass users, and Moviepass users on average were going to more movies than they were before it existed.

You don’t want to take 30 seconds to see if you’re wasting your time heading to a theater to see an incredibly popular film? You’d rather get all the way there before finding that out? I mean... cool, if that’s what you’re into. But it seems like a massive self-own.

He’s alleged to have been routinely abusive to people in his employ. There are quite a few stories that have circulated over the years of his mistreatment of actors.

What’s your source that Fisher is an asshole? You just don’t like it when Black people speak up about mistreatment?

Literally every moral code from the last two millennia agrees that we should feel a greater obligation to other people than to ourselves.

Wrong. Intent does not matter - the EFFECT of your language is all that matters. Just because you intend to discuss the n-word, that doesn’t make it okay to spell it out. Because the effect is the same no matter what: causing pain for other people.

If you can have that conversation without engaging in the exact hurtful activity we’re talking about, go for it. But to deadname someone in an article about why you shouldn’t do it is unbelievably petulant, and in no way a genuine bid for understanding or discussion.
