Between spoiling major plot points in titles and setting up strawmans in articles, seems to be a free-for-all. Do better Kotaku. 

Fr! I was ready to write this off as another weird kotaku opinion piece but wtf that comment about it being homophobic is not cool at all! Does Kotaku not have editors who check these before they go out cause fucking hell this article has no chill...

Wait, people actually like Akechi? He’s as interesting as a bottle of water.

He’s dead.  Also, fuck off with calling this homophobia... they have no reason to bring Akechi back just because he was your favorite character.  There is no reason to equate that to the hatred and violence people have against homosexuals...

Actually to add on to this, you know who REALLY need more time for character development than shit head cop? Fucking Haru.

Akechi is a genuinely awful person. Having a bad childhood doesn’t excuse becoming a monster when you get older, and he is very clearly smart enough to know everything he did was horribly wrong. 

Akechi was the most predictable character in the game and had a shit tier excuse for who he was, one that we’ve seen millions of times and, I would be okay with him being in the next Persona game just so I could beat his ass again. And no, Royal did nothing for him as someone who only played Royal and not the…

Akechi is a cop that murdered Futabas mother, which in turn made Sad Coffee Dad Sojiro a bachelor for life. There is nothing to like with this kid. I’m glad he died and I hope he is revived to die again. Fight me.

Season 1 is part 1. Season 2 & 3 are going to be Part 2. Druckman and Mazin have literally said this.

I know a few people who havent seen star wars but they for sure know it exists. 

This is the “I don’t even own a TV” of video game boasts

I get what you’re saying, but this is more along the lines of not knowing what Survivor is/was. I also avoid reality shows like the plague, but I’m still aware of it.

Oddity to the gamer generation? More like an oddity to everyone born in the 80s onward.

Isn’t it sort of...i dunno, *implied* that anything from 2006 is going to be “of it’s time?” I’m not excusing the content of what’s said but like, gaming in the early 00' ain’t exactly the most inclusive hobby.

“I think it caused trouble for my friends [at Valve], and made their lives harder.”

Yeah this. It seems like they decided to focus on gaming because it feels like a much softer target. But there have been so many other much worse acquisitions than stuff in the video game market. 

yep, it’s because people look at the whole of Microsoft vs the whole of Sony and say “Microsoft is the bigger player in the market!” ignoring that microsoft OS revenue has nothing to do with their gaming market share. Sony is the bigger fish in this scenario.

While personally I hope this merger does not go through it’s a little strange to me why this merger has gotten so much scrutiny while others haven’t.

I find it ridiculous that the CMA can argue that this deal would hurt competition while continuing to allow Sony, the market leader to practive anti-consumer anti-competition practices. If they don’t want to approve the merger, fine. But go after the market leader and their practices of making third-party games and…

The Rock has done 41 films since Be Cool, maybe we should think of that one as an outlier. I thought he was pretty great in Moana, though, so he’s 2-40 in his last 42 movies.
