I can’t believe a news site would report on the biggest leak of the biggest game of the year that is currently being talked about by the broader gaming community as though it was newsworthy or something!

(breathily) “Be careful Link!”

For you the day Kotaku posted an article about the Lebron James of inceldom losing his cherry it was the worst day of your life. But for the rest of us, it was Wednesday.

“This is why the incel community will never start a movement and bring about change. It only takes one hoe to sacrifice herself and give some crumbs of pussy and the whole movement would collapse due to too many betraying,” another distraught incel wrote.

Sweet baby Jesus, these people are outside their damn minds! No more internet for me today, kthxbai! 

I think preview roundup is a nice feature, but it would be good if Kotaku at some point makes up with Nintendo and gets to preview games themselves. Any chance of that happening?

These people have whole subreddits dedicated to “calling out” examples of “wokeness,” so I’m pretty sure they’re fundamentally incapable of letting anything go. Especially if it’s successful despite their tantrums.

It’s BECAUSE they wrote it off. Review-bombing isn’t based on the players’ experiences with the game, it’s because it’s been identified as a target for culture-warring.

After the same crowd got ultra-triggered by the fact that women can have some peach fuzz on their face and might not look like a barbie doll I’d have figured they already totally wrote this franchise off as woke, especially with Ashley’s involvement and all.

I’m overweight and I found it needlessly offensive.  So that’s 2:1.

I’m fat, and I find it hilarious. Please don’t speak for me.

Please don’t fat shame. No matter how vile Chris Christie is, fat shaming him hurts people reading who have done nothing wrong. 

Those options aren’t mutually exclusive.

Remember kids:

Just wait until a week in when articles about this game are just tweet theories by random people.

Look, Bowser is gonna marry Peach unless Mario and a sentient hat stop him using a hot air balloon powered by stars. That’s like Joseph Campbell 101.

The fact that he won’t say what the “prank” was leads to the possibility that it wasn’t just a simple “prank.”

Look, not to dismiss any of the criticism because honestly from what I’ve read I’ll probably agree with a lot of it, but my expectations are set firmly in the “this looks like a goofy kids movie” territory so as long as my kid enjoys it and I have a perfectly decent 90 minutes watching it with him I think that’s just…
