It’s hard for me to believe that you value the lives of Israelis given that you think they should allow Hamas to launch hundred of rockets at Israeli civilian population centers without any response out of fear that Hamas may be using their own civilians as shields for their military targets. Israel is responding…

You continue to reduce the conflict solely down to the number of civilians that die on each side while completely ignoring or minimizing by far the most significant reasons why more Palestinian civilians die:

More Palestinian civilians than Israeli civilians will die because Hamas uses Palestinian civilians as a shield for their military positions and because their attempts to kill as many Israeli civilians as possible are often thwarted by Israeli’s missile defense.

There are so many things wrong with this article that it should be deemed absolute garbage and removed from the site entirely. This is a serious conflict and randomly calling out an Israeli celebrity because you don’t like a word in their altogether well-balanced and considerate message is only telling of the author’s…

“You’re measuring degrees of genocide”

Her “I wish for peace between my country and our neighbors” statement is pretty basic and the disproportionate response to it is more about attacking her as a proxy for the Israeli government due to her visibility. Holding a person accountable in this way for the actions of others due to their sharing the same…

Ahem: I’m not seeing the “recognized terrorist organization” part. Or the “into areas that are not even remotely disputed” part.

It’s not antisemitic to condemn violence perpetrated by the Israeli government.

I don’t know what people expect from her. You really thought she was going to say “Death to Israel” or something? The left has lost the plot on this and is careening toward antisemitism, especially with Gadot since she takes a lot of shit for being the most famous Israeli in the world at the moment.

Are you kidding with this article? Not once do you mention that it’s Hamas, a recognized terrorist organization launching rockets at Israeli civilians (into areas that are not even remotely disputed). Are you implying Israel is somehow wrong because they have the capacity to defend itself against these rockets, taking…

Wow, this is such a lovely note! Thank you so much for the kind words.

Hey Ari, I’ve been reading Kotaku for longer than I can remember (2006, I think? Jesus...), and it’s been hard to see so many staff writers I’ve come to love and respect move up and/or on. There’s been a certain degree of anxiety on my part as new writers, such as yourself, replace them because I don’t know your…

It doesn’t need to be long if the experience is great, right? I paid the equivalent of about 70 dollars in the 90s for my video games, which were rarely longer than 2 to 3 hours. No regrets. And the other day I went out to eat with the missus and paid about 90 dollars for a 2,5 hour dinner and drinks. Totally worth it.

Few other reviews I've seen say that hit end credits in 15-18 hours, but there's a secret ending and some extra stuff to find after. Most rogue like games aren't super long anyway

“The original Dark Forces might be our Best Star Wars Game Ever”

“Why is she like this”

And, like I said, nobody expects critics to design games in their reviews. But there’s a difference between that and not having an informed opinion. If you’re looking at a thing you dislike and you just can’t conceive of a way it could be improved maybe the issue is not with the feature and you just don’t enjoy the…

Wait, what?

Maybe that was too aggressive, but I feel like the entire article was way too dismissive of how beneficial it is. I agree that some of the near-death screens are way too aggressive, like showing the whole screen cracked. A red glow from the outside of the screen is fine.

Strong disagree, I’d hate to see these go. I get that they could be better at not obscuring your vision, but in a tense fight I really don’t have the mental acuity to be monitoring a healthbar. My tiny brain has only one point of focus and that’s usually aimed at the guns/swords/tentacles that are aimed at me. I need…
