Thus the hubris of today’s internet aficionado.

I could maybe forgive this, if the game was going to go seriously into the rise of totalitarianism though a Nazi analogue, and in the importance of standing united instead of letting the government divide the common people to crush and resistance.  But then I remember that Far Cry 5 is an "apolictial" game and how…

I like them a lot. So, for me I guess.

Yes.

Also the “why won’t Nintendo support us” crowd finally has the loudest and clearest answer imaginable.

I think where you are missing an important factor is the “value” of rarity. People pay more for things when they know they will be a short list of people of who have it. But yes, I’ve wanted to see someone do a consumer test ever since selling skins at $15-$20 instead of $5 became the norm.

I hope this makes it to Tabletop Simulator as soon as they have some of it translated.  It would be great to be able to mess around with the game in there.

Twitch HQ was ashamed when Marie Kondo visited.

Cards Against Humanity co-founder quits after ______ over _______

According to a interview I just made up, this is ACTUAL No More Heroes 3 gameplay. As in this is how you play — with Suda 51 talking to you like Seaman in the middle of the screen.

This is an emulator (technically, a mod of an emulator), and contains no copyrighted assets from Nintendo. Nintendo has no standing to take it down.

Imagine how sad one’s life must be to review-bomb some game on Metacritic, esp. over some perceived “SJW”-ness or something.

I like to think Miyazaki said, “this Harvey Weinstein,” with a little dismissive question mark at the end.
