I mean, it really is well earned hate. It kind of reminds me of Ripley in Aliens. “Why the fuck is there an android on board!?!?!?” Like, it makes perfect sense she’d be pissed off. Trust has to be re-earned and it can take some time.

“Free DLC for life”: Microtransaction CAMPs.

Nice try, Todd.

Any time I support an American company, I am in turn supporting a regime that denies climate change, supports capital punishment, and allows its citizens to die en masse to a preventable disease.

Not obsessively following cancel culture demands is not “implicitly approving” of anything. I suppose you live independent of all Chinese trade? If you actually do, that’s impressive.

That is one aspect of cancel culture I particularly loathe. Please do not tell others what they approve of all because they don’t obey…

It’s funnier even when you take in the fact that Amber is also a “Cop”. And the Librarian is a consultant for the “cops”.

And the MC is deputized.

Seems reasonable. They’re a private entity and can make up any rules they want. Kind of like stores with signs No Shoes, No Shirt, No service.

That shouldn’t have anything to do with cops in this fantasy game unless there’s context within the game itself that should compel players to boo the game world’s police. It just seems weird and distracts from the rest of the article.

Boo because all cops are bad everywhere in in fantasy worlds in video games apparently.  Its a moronic thing thats going on right now where Americans want anything that give any police a somewhat positive spin to be banned even if they're not American cops

Booing just because the character is a “cop?” Fuck you Kotaku...

Kaeya, a sword-wielding cop (boo!)

I don’t think any of that matters at all.

hate speech is not an opinion.

If people tune into a twitch show solely due to a PS5 being in the background they deserve to have their time wasted.

The lie is a cake!

Yeah, who on twitch does things only for the views!  This has crushed the integrity that twitch has worked so hard for over the years.........

Is there... some other metric... for a video platform... to care about?

Now doing anything fun is “Being Desperate”... OK

Yes, but Epic’s CEO sided with Blitchung and supported a free Hong Kong during that controversy last year. If China (or a Chinese company) actually had any tangible influence over Epic they would have flipped their shit and did everything they could to destroy Epic. But none of that happened. It’s just the bog…

Ohh shut the fudge up. Tencent owns a stake in a lot of American Companies. not only that but GE appliances is now a chinese owned company. Everything you buy is made in china and get your head out of that fudge stained keister of yours and wake the fudge up.
