I’m always amazed at how much of the corporate life revolves around making the people in charge feel good about themselves (ensuring that they feel in control, validating their decisions...) and how little in comparison about building great products and selling them for a profit.

Right? Anyone who has played Betrayal knows this isn’t a 1 hour game.

Me and my friends once had a round that ended VERY quickly, it was like the first haunt roll that revealed it and no one was prepared so we got dededestroyed

For real!

So I submitted to a weekend binge. Was ok, I was entertained for the most part. Still trying to figure out what’s so special about Sabrina, but I guess I’ll have to wait a few seasons to find out. Also, witches ant shit, I though they’d be more powerful *meh*

Could be worse.  They could have added in a BR mode like everyone else is now.  

Nope, but I’ve also played actual disasters. For example, i love DayZ but the beta right now is worse than the Alpha. FFXIV 1.0 was a disaster. Metal Gear Survive is a disaster.

Also if reviewers hadn’t unduly dogpiled the game for bugs that were later patched out. I’m not saying they shouldn’t dock points for that, it’s literally their job and I want to know if a game’s buggy, but there were so many reviews that followed trend by just complaining about the bugs hyperbolically.

What the fuck is this fucking sentence? Jesus. “Say what you will about this guy who perpetuates ‘no girls allowed’ toxic masculinity in the alt-right redpill breeding ground and drops n-bombs with the weak-ass 90s-era ‘just singin’ along brah!’ excuse, he presses buttons good!” is a fucking idiotic take. A n-bomb is…

I agree I wish gamers would stop falling in love with game companies. They just want you money folks, it’s what fuels the party! Personally I have no romantic attachment to any company, though I will exhibit loyalty from time to time (based on quality of product/service) but that’s as far as it goes.

I’m kind of tired over the pretense in culture that adults are not emotional beings who react emotionally to situations. No, this wasn’t ‘childish’, as in how children particularly act. This is how adults across all cultures behave, given the right circumstances. Understanding that is critical to understanding human…

...Are you just dumb or what? Not to be rude.

I know you’re just trying to get a rise out of me, but here’s a serious response: I try to never publish any unofficial information without hearing it from at least two independent sources, which is why we always tend to be right when we break news. (See: Fallout 76 being an online survival game, Mass Effect Andromeda …

inb4 Gamergaters start complaining about SJWs ruining their games

“The lawsuit also says Negron’s third supervisor had told her that “diversity should not be a focal point of the design of Riot Games’ products because gaming culture is the last remaining safe haven for white teen boys.””

Thanks! It’s certainly ironic that angry Redditors have been dragging me all weekend for being a Blizzard shill because I criticized the petulant red-shirt guy on Twitter while at the same time I was digging into this story that Blizzard certainly didn’t want to come out.

I look forward to any article you write. The insights you provide into the BTS workings of the video game industry are so important. I, and so many others, have little idea how these games are created or promoted when being created. You’re careful, but dedicated to tell the story and clearly have amazing connections…

It’s astounding to me how these nerds are screaming themselves into rage-comas because a phone toy isn’t directly marketed to them.

Holy shit, Gamers are trash.  Just don’t play it if you’re that mad.  Christ...

Nor should they expect it. I agree it’s a bad idea and not what i want. What will i do with this turn of events? Not play it and maybe check out Path of Exile. This Gamers Rise Up bullshit is just embarrassing. They don’t care how angry you rage on reddit. They care if they don’t make money on it. No amount of reddit…
