This is an article about video game fans, on a site about video games.

Oh, what? I read the article and thought weirdos were like becoming obsessed with the video game’s version of Mary Jane and stalking her real life physical basis. I thought that was weird but I guess reality was weirder.

I don’t disagree, but that’s endemic of corporate culture in general and not primarily the video game industry. Video game and tech companies are standing out because they swelled their ranks during the pandemic, when everybody and their mother were shoving all their luxury money on stuff that could be used during…

Fucking gamers jesus christ

I wonder if women get briefed by developers/publishers when they’re hired to act or model for a game, if they’re at all made aware of what will happen in social media as a consequence of being hired. I wonder if, whoever will end up being cast as Abby in HBO’s adaptation of The Last of Us, she will be made aware that,…

Who is “everybody”? I’ve yet to see or hear ANY hands on when it comes to this game.

“So what, we just some kind of.... Live-service game?"

Let me describe what she and most squares think...

As a dad of two young boys, this drives me crazy. Just fucking live and don’t hurt anyone. Nothing else. You want to play Tetris? Fucking play it until your fingers bleed. You want to ride your bike? Ride it. I will never understand people’s need to downplay a kid’s (or an adult’s) passions. My parents had me second…

When asked for a response they replied

I got the same vibe. The cyberbullying sucks but you made a bad game and tried to hand wave it away rather than accept that. It's hard for me to feel too much sympathy for the closure when studios that have made great games can't even stay open (RIP Mimimi).

Yeah I still buy Blu Rays from time to time for TV shows that I already love and dont want to pay streaming services for. Bought all of Brooklyn 99 for like 45 bucks on Blu Ray and that was way better than paying for peacock for a few months. As for CDs, Im pretty sure without even trying that there is no device in my…
