It does seem over the top and I’m sure the game would be fine without some of the side content, but I don’t think it’s accurate to say “everyone else” skips it. I do some and skip some. And I’d wager most players are like me in that regard.

I noticed you weren’t getting “helpful answers” besides mine which was lacking in information because the article didn’t provide it. Since Ashcraft hit my post with a like I decided to do the legwork he didn’t and hopefully the article will be updated with this information

If this is anything like when Conan dubbed Ghost in the Shell, this should be funny.

Welp, Aimée Lutkin, thank you for making it clear Kotaku will no longer have my patronage. I’ve never posted a comment in the years I’ve read this site...but I’ve also never seen it publish a ‘How to’ on subverting some our most fundamental laws and, in the cases of repeat illegal reentry offenders, accessories to…

You people (Witcher 3 haters) need to be exiled to an island somewhere. You can’t be trusted. 

Well, they’re not the only ones to use scantily clad women to attract interest.

Hold on, let me find my tiny fiddle to play for the guy that lost $80,000 a month in income for playing games online in front thousands of fans. Oh darn, I don’t have time because I also have a full time job that doesn’t pay nearly as well, requires being at the office for 50-60 hours a week plus an extra 10 or so…

This hot cereal thing just made me sympathize with Trump and his wall for a few seconds...

The Witcher series derives from Polish myths and legends. It is set in a world inspired by old Europe. It is designed and created by Polish people.

Listen, I think your post came off a little sanctimonious. You went out of your way to say you’d never drink and drive, and you’d never break anything while drunk (which is suspect but let’s not even get into that), and that being drunk isn’t an excuse for poor behavior. Any one of those things in a random post on a…

This is what passes for games journalism these days? Do you not shoot enemies in games anymore either because you know people and that NPC could have had friends and family? Can you not separate fantasy from reality?

I know how you feel. Watching hentai just wasn’t the same after I married an octopus.

Or Street Fighter 2. I think it was $80 as well. 15 year old me would have paid twice that though. Oh wait, I did. I bought it over and over and over.

Arc System Works went from amazing sprite work to amazing cel shading work that captures the look and feel of sprites amazingly well. I don’t hate Capcom’s 3D visuals at all, but I’ve always wished they would follow suit. How amazing would it be to see Street Fighter (or perhaps even better visually, Darkstalkers)…

I kind of like it, it references the obvious historical link to the fact that it was an anime/manga and also it help make her a bit “off” but still expressive. just weird enough looking to tell that she is not human.

Planet Terror is a modern classic.

“Steelers fans have to be the least self-aware fans in sports. Yes, the catch was spectacular and the field goal clutch, but they barely get by a team held together with the foam they make cheese heads from and bratwurt skins. NFL fans are lucky their teams aren’t ranked by quality of win or strength of schedule.”

These are the kind of articles that have made Kotaku a laughingstock among gamers. Although I suppose it’s emblematic of most of the websites that were under the Gawker banner. This is such a reach it’s absolutely ridiculous and I think anyone with common sense can see that.

I expected a comment like that. I did read the review. At no point do you mention if you actually liked the game or not. You mentioned finding some parts “fun,” and that the devs played some things conservatively. Considering how much you talked about anticipating the game on the podcast over the past year, guess I…

Some gamers like mean need linear games just to make it to the end of the game. All these open world games you often just get bogged down in all your choices and locations and when you can do literally anything there’s no one particular thing you want to do so you end up doing nothing. Linear games bring a massive…
