I agree with most of this list, with two exceptions.

“Endless Layoffs and Studios Closing”

The question is why are KotFM and Napoleon considered successes versus the Marvels. Similar budgets et al.

I see we are to the point now where it’s time to try to rewrite the history of the Xbone and make excuses for why it, once again, was a failure. At this point Microsoft has given up completely on even trying to learn from and correct any past mistakes, they’re not even trying at all anymore to attract new customers…

Only problem with Scarlet/Violet is the performance. If they ever get it running better on future hardware, I’d recommend checking them out wholeheartedly. The performance issues definitely hurt the experience but they are still much much better games structurally than the “baby’s first hallway simulator” that was…

You sound like a monekywhateverhisnicknamewas guy from the Monstrum 2 discussion board.

Sigh. You really need to read the entire thread before responding. This entire thread has revolved around whether or not The Day Before qualifies as a scam. It began when Big Van Vader said “Why would you buy this game knowing it’s a mess, knowing it’s a scam?” I replied by saying that the game isn’t necessarily a…

Seems like you completely missed the point. Calling an unfinished early access game a scam because it’s missing content and/or features is dumb. It’s clearly labeled as unfinished. It’s entirely fair to say the game sucks in its current form and doesn’t live up to the hype. It’s entirely fair to say that the game…

What do you find bad about it?

I’m loving the hell out of the game and the characters are a big reason why.

Describing the giant confusing mess that is Kingdom Hearts as having “pulled off” anything is being incredibly generous.

Honestly, the easiest method is just to ignore it. With it being such a mediocrely reviewed movie, it can just not be part of the KH universe at all. There are still a ton of Disney movies out there that aren’t currently part of the KH setting, so it’s not like they need to get on Wish right away.

Personally I’d love…

Is it true they’re extending the scene where she farts into a microphone??

Really enjoying the walk back from “gamedevs are all fuckin’ uncool dorks” to “it’s all good, be yourself, we’re just havin’ fun here!”

My thinking is, it does not stand on its own, and as the only animated media we have, that sits alone on a streaming service, it should.

That’s....actually a good policy.

Didn’t see complaints about Peter’s “lab” set up from the first game. Gee I wonder why...

It is not inflation though, the pandemic excuse for companies being supply constrained and the shortages has ended a good while ago. Prices should have gone down but greedy companies have kept the prices up anyway as much as possible.

I’m surprised Kotaku didn’t take the chance to (rightfully) cancel Kelce for homophobia in the headline tweet.

SNL made an entire sketch about jokes on the Al-Qaeda name on the first show after 9/11.
