Your viewpoint is fascinating! But let me continue debating you, cuz this is great and fun and all I ever want out of a comment section.

I usually go Synthesis, too. I didn’t put in all that work trying to save the Geth and the Quarians only to have it all be for nothing by destroying all synthetic life

... okay, Kotaku fans, let’s get into it.

(having now seen the trailer, this does not seem like a sensitive, non-caricature portrayal of autism)

This is where I’m at as an autistic person. I completely get the argument with race-washing, and casting cis people in trans roles, but with autism I just don’t understand it. As long as it’s sensitive towards the people it’s portraying, and those people are consulted rather than just being a caricature, I have no…

I hear you. Using the Trill like this would have been more clever in the TNG/DS9/Voyager era but not necessarily today.

As a straight white man firmly in his 50's, I don’t feel like I have a lot to say about how non-binary folks should be portrayed. But, that being said, making the non-binary folks Trills seems like a cop-out. I thought it to myself as I was watching the show, and I’m heartened to see that someone else noticed it as…

For the first time ever, an Xbox (Series X) looks more attractive to me than a PS(5), because of that incredible back-catalogue. I’ve never had an Xbox and I’m just eager to get into the “Halo”- and “Gears”-series and I seriously want to play “Lost Odyssey”. But the system sellers are definitely “Flight Simulator” and…

This video was just for BDG to flex his collection of mandolins on us.

Pointing out when the president says an obvious lie is exactly the job of a journalist. What the fuck is wrong with you?

Journalists are SUPPOSED to have an adversarial relationship with the government. It’s literally why you dummies have a fucking first amendment. You want stenographers? Hire fucking stenographers.

Look...Ian...I mean this in the nicest way possible, and I say this as a fellow progressive who has tried to get people to vote for Bernie twice in a row, and this isn’t directed at you specifically but at the group you are currently representing with this article...but please, shut the fuck up.

You know, I would be a lot more on board with Biden skepticism if it was powered by actual concerns and not baldfaced lies like this:

Oh, for... This is a ridiculous article.

The Biden campaign made a cheery and silly Animal Crossing island. It’s neat. It will change few minds (and it shouldn’t) but it’s a nice, silly diversion.

I’m sorry you’re tired (we all are, because Holy Shit this administration) but this whole article is like a festival of…

So please explain what isn’t “vulgar” about portraying transpeople as mentally ill or lending succor to paedophiles and happily becoming the public face of a movement designed to remove rights of transpeople?

So can we all be honest with the fact that a) Beyond Good and Evil, while certainly an interesting game at the time, is overrated and had very little impact on the medium.

That’s what it sounds like to me, to. Or “So long-a Bowser!” 

“I will get this... in about 2 years and when it has dropped to $45.”

Original series was a truly spectacular use of six one-hour episodes to tell a dark and convincing story, one that resonates particularly deeply in 2020.  Not a SECOND of screen time was wasted.

So this remake cuts out the humor and the striking visuals, stretches out the fast pace, and simplifies the heroic but also monstrous and scary Jessica Hyde to a one-note badass.
