Do you think that you shouldn’t be able to buy a laptop bag that isn’t made by the laptop maker? A phone case that isn’t made by the phone manufacturer? Should you only be allowed to buy auto parts specifically from the car maker that produced the car? What kind of asinine argument is this?

Except that is absolute dogshit. You are allowed to make and sell tripods that work with canon cameras. You are allowed to make and sell lenses that work with canon cameras. You can make and sell a device that helps you take photos remotely, etc., etc., etc.

It’s worth remembering that the first Hitman reboot game was released one level at a time. So you play the level and then beat it. And then, since there’s nothing else to move on to, you play it again, beating it a different way, etc., etc. Obviously, no one can MAKE you play the game like this, but it is...the right…

Look at any ttk/stk chart for PUBG and Warzone. Warzone has lower damage per bullet for essentially every gun (an easy comparison: it takes 4 shots to kill a lvl 2 enemy with an AK to the chest in PUBG, 5 for a lvl 3 enemy (which you find much less often), and 7 in Warzone—plates being universal), and also lower…

Okay then! Thanks! That is so friggin’ excellent. I have been waiting for headsets to start foveated rendering. Really pixel-dense screens with FR will be an absolute gamechanger.

If it does Foveated Rendering, I will be very happy. It could, however, “just” be doing eye tracking as a kind of controller assist. I’m interested either way. 

Hi there, I stated an opinion that I have for myself about a game and criticized Kaboodle for claiming to know an opinion on behalf of someone else (and this came with a heavy implication that they enjoyed a strange and stupid thing (“scavenging and randomness”) at the cost of good gunplay and movement—Something that…

Hunt is one of my favorite games right now. It’s possible (and fun!) to take on teams of 3 as a solo, you can avoid other hunters if you’re careful and a little lucky, picking your loadout matters, choosing your upgrades matter (each individual starts at lvl 0, and you can get to max lvl in 2-4 matches, depending on…

I know we’re in wildly subjective territory here, but it’s not tough at all to discount him as a writer. He is good at coming up with neat twists, but that is literally as far as I would celebrate his literary merit. Infinite in particular is a badly written game. The dialog is stilted as hell (and that is in the…

No, it was just PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, but that was very quickly known as PUBG, PlayerUnknown left, and they were thinking about how to use the PUBG name, so the original game got changed to PUBG: Battlegrounds, the mobile game is PUBG: Mobile, and further games will be PUBG: Whatever. It’s an understandable…

I love the condescending tone you have for being so wrong. While I’m sure there are definitely a handful people who like the variety of different times, the vast majority of people who prefer PUBG to Warzone are like that because of the shooting mechanics. TTK is lower in games like PUBG, and it doesn’t have the…

Yeah, it was absolutely amazing. What a game. 

Yes, exactly. 

Cracker is not a racial slur. It is a class slur. It is a word that’s entire history is upper class white people attacking lower class white people. It has been adopted by non-white people, but for the same exact reasons, of denigrating a social class. Bougie is also not a racial slur. City Slicker is not a racial…

I read the first two High Republic novels (or at least the first one and the Claudia Gray one) and they are bad. neat idea, I won’t be wasting any more time on it. 

I know reading is hard, but you’ll notice that the DF footage is used to refute a specific point that “Every gaming news site with any legitimacy uses stills and promotional material provided.” DF did not use still or promotional material for their review, but rather footage they recorded themselves from the game as a…

Sigh. Literally every single point you have made is wrong because you fundamentally don’t understand how any of this works. Let’s go through them.

I mean, this is the most obvious meaning, and how we understand literally every other song that references playing games. 

I guess they were grumpy that Activision kept getting all the bad headlines and decided to start waging completely insane legal challenges that will cost tens/hundreds of thousands of dollars, garner bad will, and absolutely go against them because their claims are stupid.
