Its 100% disingenuous, Jill is actually great in the game, her being pretty has nothing to do with it, she’s not even dressed in any kind of overtly sexual way that would normally be the case for a female character in these games.

Yikes.

People aren’t “looking for reasons” to be angry. People are rightfully angry over transphobia, and this game is based on the franchise created by one of the world’s most visible transphobes. And fuuuuuuuuuck you and your stance of “ignore it and it’ll go away”. That’s not how social change works. The trans community…

Fuck Made in Abyss and fuck this game. One of the most uncomfortable manga I’ve ever left unfinished. One too many full-page spreads of nude children in bondage for my tastes.  That artist should be on a list.

This is some Qanon level brainworms

I feel you but would ask you to dig deeper my friend. Imagine making something new, original (to you) and a passion project that should be seen in it’s own light and judged on it’s own terms. Now imagine some suits telling you “yeah, that’s great but your ideas don’t matter; brands matter (they kinda do but not really…

One of the things I ended up doing most when I randomly picked up a Vita in 2020 was play Symphony of the Night and War of the Lions.

The smartphone version of FFTWOL is juuuuuuuust annoying and finnicky enough that I found myself desperate for a d-pad after like 10 chapters. I would whole heartedly support a…

Remember when Leigh Alexander posted her great “Gamers are Over” piece all those years ago and a bunch of shitheads lost their mind? I think about that a lot.

Yup.  I don’t identify as a gamer because it’s such a loaded word thanks to toxic nonsense.  I play video games, but I don’t game.

Video games are great. “Gamers” are fucking trash. Makes me embarrassed to admit I love video games sometimes. 

The Deck has rendered my Switch a glorified dust collector.

Pikim 3 came out on the Wii U 9 years ago and it’s still $42. Wild. 

Nintendo’s idea of sales for their triple A titles is 49.99 to 44.99 lol. Ten years later 39.99. They’re the greediest game company on earth. All their first run triple A titles should now be $19.99. Ya greedy bastards!

ngl, whenever you write about difficulty in games it feels like you’re trying to will the “git gud” comments into existence so that you have a villain in the comments to point at, or like you’re trying to whip up an argument.

Which is why D3 is best played on a console with a controller. I know that sounds wrong, but it’s true. The console version is the superior version of that game.

The only thing worth reading here is this comment.

DIII’s always-online requirement was bullshit then and it’s bullshit now.
