Lol, the cover picture is very fitting!

I’d recommend watching my personal favorite YouTube channel, Metal Jesus, where he and Kelsey discuss fake cartridges:

Hot damn. That is one sexy piece of hardware. 

This is going too far. She perfectly recreated the character. She’s not saying that his skin color is a costume, she is treating the whole character as one. What was she supposed to do, make the character white? Then wouldn’t there be people shitting on her for black erasure? Should males complain because she is… Read more

What absolutely miserable human beings these people reporting her must be

Gamma some Vodka and I Beta I can get drunk!

Fetishization is the process in which an object becomes sexually desirable. Read more

Dj Professor K is spot on!
These are really cool.
Also, I demand a remaster/remake.

They delivered almost exactly what many people speculated they would. Read more

Jesus Christ, it’s for kids. Seriously calm down, the Pro is coming. The rumors that hit was for a Lite and a Pro, here’s the Lite. If you already own a switch whats the problem? If you don’t already have one, you’re clearly not that interested in the system. 

Parents. Parents buy this for kids, just like the 3DS. It’s amazing how many of you still don’t understand Nintendo. 

Essentially admitting that exclusivity deals are due to some pissing match between them and Valve rather than being anywhere near an attempt at being pro-consumer.

Why is it not okay for Steam specifically to have the 30% cut? Its the same cut that iTunes store, Google Play, GoG take. Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony all take approximately 30% on digital as well. Gamestop and other retailers take 20-25% ballpark on physical retail releases, but things get murkier… Read more

Uplay, Origin, and B.net are company stores for Ubisoft, EA, and Activision Blizzard respectively. They bypassed (or in Blizzard’s case, never sold on) Steam to sell directly to customers. Even then, Ubi will sell on Steam, then force you into Uplay as an updater/launcher anyway. GoG Galaxy is a CD Projekt division,… Read more

Valve has to have a ton of overhead with all the servers they run, the constant updates from security threats, the market, VR, the community, and countless other things that Epic store does not have. I find it crazy that it even has to be mentioned. Read more

I mean, there’s a ton of stuff. Account security. More launchers. Existing friend networks. Feature set. Price competition from authorized key resellers.

Every argument I seem to see for EGS either a)says that since that person doesn’t care about those things, no one else does or can; b)has vague promises about… Read more

There is zero benefit to the customer when Epic nabs an exclusive for themselves, and several tangible negatives. It’s pretty straightforward to understand, and so thank you for this breakdown.

The Epic Store isn’t giving more money to developers, as this deal was done with 2k, and not Gearbox. This is just more money to line the pockets of executives, and overall, the EGS tacks on plenty of fees the customer has to pay for. Ultimately games there aren’t going to be cheaper, or earning developers more money.

Apparently Epic doesn’t employ any non-white people, nor have they stolen from anyone but black people. Yeah stealing sucks, but this wasn’t targeted at any particular color of skin, nor was it a result of negligence towards skin color. Read more

I don’t have blind belief in the story. Nor do I have blind rejection of the story. I see a story that might be true, and might not, but is interesting either way. Read more
