Let me be very clear: I have no real idea what the hell Amouranth does. She streams a ton, has other businesses on the side, and makes a lot of money. A lot of people talk about the boobs, and sexy girls are indeed sexy, but I can’t imagine that boobs are interesting enough to follow and watch that much of her in a…

So what you are saying is you are incapable of utilizing this very good advice, because you have a very, very narrow point of view: “The real lesson is to find a thing that is nascent enough and perceived to be uncertain and risky enough as to offer you outsized rewards for a modicum of professionalism.”

This is so idiotic. First, you keep making claims throughout that 40% of the audience is under 18. Not only is this wrong (38% of the audience is between 19 or younger), but it’s idiotic. A LOT of those people are watching Fortnight and Minecraft, etc., etc., etc., and are in no way the audience that she is targeting.

Hey bro, you have completely and utterly misunderstood a very simple thing. In this situation, Twitch is the nascent platform, and “legacy media” is the many different forms of television. Right now, nearly the entire whole of Twitch is: Random person tries a thing, and it either works or it does not. This is not, for…

Hello, I’m just here for the “emergence” puns about naked chief. 

It’s worth reading the reviews, with the negative reviews mostly being: combat is clunky, and that kills it, but the writing stuff is great!, and the positive reviews saying: while there is clunky combat, etc., it comes together with great writing, etc. making it fantastic.

Literally all of your concerns boil down to: people take advantage of systems, but with this new system, no one could possibly take advantage of it! This is hilariously false, of course, because loopholes are to be found in every system, and the reason for this is: laws. Stock trading is working, for the most part, as…

For those of you not very familiar with ab rollouts: DON’T try to do them standing until you can do a CRAPLOAD of them from the kneeling position. Even if you’re really strong, and have abs and a great back. Seriously, don’t underestimate how hard this exercise is. Even kneeling ab rollouts are an impressively…

Honestly, that they want another $60 for this is the only thing keeping me from it. When your “game” is basically a bloated DLC, and you don’t even have a discount for owners of the game that didn’t sell enough copies to link this to it, it makes people grumpy.

Honestly, if they had not released it on the last-gen consoles, and made it PS5/XSX/PC exclusive, most of the problems would have been avoided. That said, I still don’t think it’s as good at Wild Hunt, as there are a lot of silly dumb things (the world is beautiful, but dead and unrealistic, a very thin veneer of an op…

I’m gonna be honest, that is absolutely wrong. Witcher 1 was...interesting. It was a solid game with lots of problems that did okay enough. Witcher 2 was a great game that was well reviewed and sold something like 10 million copies (ie: no small thing). Witcher 3 was outstanding. Gwent is very good. Thronebreaker is…

Wait, so, in response to this person making something beautiful that is running well, you want to prove your point by asking me to throw together a ton of foliage, because it will run terribly.

Putting things in perspective is fine. That is not what this post does in any way. That would be: hey, this looks nice, but a lot of that is due to it being an essentially static world. Instead, they wrote this screed: “But it has a very “I just bought these assets on the marketplace and plopped them into a level at…

I don’t remember the hype, but I remember being absolutely BLOWN AWAY that there were actual textures that had blades of grass on them

What an edgelord take. So you watch a video that shows the game running smoothly, both at walking speed and while biking downhill at high speed, and say: this can’t possibly work, the framerate would tank. Not only is this literally proven wrong, but even if you weren’t completely, factually incorrect (you are), it is…

Did you even read what you said? Everything was fine until the end. There is absolutely nothing wrong with people thinking about their partner, but then you end with: “There truly is no difference in intention between Marilyn Manson and men who take dominant positions in those types of relationships- it is all based…

Apropos of nothing in this article, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by Oatly. While it smells VERY much of oats, the taste is very pleasant in a latte. It isn’t whole milk lovely, but it’s pretty nearly as good as milk, and while weirdos that prefer soy, or almond milk exist, it’s the  first milk “substitute” that…

You went through all that trouble of googling a thing, seeing that there is a correlation between lifestyle and bone density (hunter gatherers v farmers) and yet your takeaway is that this is from 1,000 years ago, rather than thinking: HMMMMMMM, if the “sedentary” life of a farmer leads to weaker bones than…

Yup. With these kinds of games, I periodically check the stupid things I need to farm, pop on an audiobook and then spend a few hours listening to that while I take care of upgrades. I actually like it, but it's dumb that it's a weird requirement.

I don’t think anyone is shocked. Most are just tired of it.
