The fact is, the vast majority of people prefer to read instead of watching a cleavage laden woman or some neckbeard take 5 minutes to say what we can read in 30 seconds, but they can sell an additional add for a video. That’s all it is: money. With a video, not only to they get the click to the article, but they get…

Just because you put in a hyperlink does not make it relevant. Mr. Klepek here researched how pirating was possibly hurting a new games sales. In his blurb, he mentioned that there were forums and tech support for these torrents, and a thriving community behind it. And then... he put it in a video. A video which many…

Obviously a gameplay snippet is better on video than described on paper, but something like this has no benefit to being on video. At all.

The thing that really grinds my gears is the main reason videos are done are for additional ad revenue. They get the revenue from your click on the article, then the revenue from you clicking on the video. It’s all money. It’s always money.

Nah. I will never get my news from shittily made YouTube videos and their ilk. Somebody somewhere will always be doing actually journalism rather than playing a character in a video with a terrible voice. And those people are the ones I will seek out to get my news. If Kotaku switches to a majorly video-based news…

Might want to reply this to the OP (Patrick) and not me. Seems relevant to the article itself and not my whining.

As long as we’re in agreement.

So.... you can derogatorally call someone ‘champ’ and it’s ok, but when someone has the audacity to reply back with ‘kid’, that’s too far? For the record, I replied with kid because every time I hear someone say ‘champ’ I’m reminded of a child walking up to his hero and calling him champ, hence the Joe Green…

I did it just for you, kid.

Touché.

Maybe, but more in the sense of a sabretooth tiger evolving into a house cat. Be the fucking tiger.

Because he said to let him know what we thought of his video reporting, which I am doing. You see, you wouldn’t have come off as a dick if you had actually read that part. :/

Maybe I’m old school, but I absolutely detest video journalism. Nothing against your attempt, Mr. Klepek, but I believe it to be an evolution the needs to be un-Darwined. I enjoy Kotaku because it’s one of the few geek sites that still write way more often than they make a video. I would’ve loved to read the article,…

I’m playing a game called “You Have to Be An Adult”. It involves spending 6-8 hours at the dealership picking out a new vehicle because the car you already pair off just blew a transmission and it’s a $5500 repair.

An alternate dystopian timeline where the villains caused the apocalypse, partly because they tricked Logan into killing every single member of the X-Men. Old Man Logan is not Wolverine. The Wolverine that died encased in adamantium is dead, has not been revived, and it doesn’t look like he ever will be revived.

But Wolverine as you’ve known him is dead. He’s been dead for a long time, and judging by the treatment he’s staying dead. This isn’t a Captain America or Superman situation. That Logan is dead.

Doge is dead. It died at the end of 2015. Now it’s time for Dat,Doe to die.

Almost starred you for saying Fringe was a good show, then I took it away for saying it was better than Lost.

After all the reviews calling it terrible and underwhelming, maybe I went in with lowered expectations, but I loved the episode. I always gravitate towards the mythology episodes rather than the monster of the week, and felt like this one game more concrete clues than any single episode in the past. That, and the…

It’s 2016. Can we officially retire “Dat _____, tho?” Please?
