I think this is pretty disingenuous. There are certainly alt-left groups, but comparing the alt-right to “liberals” is a hugely false dichotomy. Liberal groups generally push for inclusion, sometimes at the expense of existing social structures. Alt-right groups often push for ethno-states and the subjugation or…

Lots of people should realize that these conspiracies are borderlines to domestic terrorism in the name of “National Security”. There isn’t anything secure about shooting up people that want accountability in the police, there isn’t anything secure in kidnapping back foster children because qanon said so. To believe…

Another epic brainwashed fanboy lol.

Uh, no. Epic is the one that dragged them into it.
Epic, the company that is notoriously anti-consumer in terms of their game store and business practices.
Epic, the company that breached their own contract after being told that no, they couldn’t break it.
Epic, the country that is using the very customers it has abused…

Fair is very subjective though. Apple can easily claim 30% is fair considering they produced the hardware, the software, marketed and distributed their product with such success that iOS has a very healthy market share.

So, what does Apple do on it’s phones/tablets that Sony doesn’t do on Playstation? Or Nintendo. Or Xbox.

I spotted the fanboi!

Do I get a prize!?

Part of the problem is that the executives goal isn’t always the long term success of the company or its employees and, sometimes, it never is. Very often executives are compensated for short term changes in stock price or or other maneuvers that allow a handful of people to profit disproportionately. That could…

I wonder how the total salaries of the workers that got laid off compares to the salary+bonuses of the execs that made the order.

“While recognising the need to retain top executives”

This isn’t a need. It’s the biggest lie in the corporate universe, in fact.

The difference between a “top executive” and “other executives” is literally a lottery pull. The vast majority of them are staggeringly incompetent or ineffectual people that just ride…

I mean the fact that Death Stranding, a game that uses the engine and was designed with the same restrictions, came out a month before on PC and runs basically flawless on a toaster makes it a bit surprising this one is so bad in comparison.

You guys and Ars Technica had a very different PC experience.

If you believe the internet, though, this game’s biggest problem isn’t the boring, stale repetitive gameplay or Marvel characters with zero charisma. No, it’s the fact that there is a character exclusive to a console!

Always bugs me when people say it’s been in development for 8 years. That’s just when the Kickstarter started and it's goal was to be a little space game. At the very earliest you could argue that development on what is currently Star Citizen, the sprawling AAA MMO, started in 2014. Which is a pretty long time but far…

If anything, the number one point I took away from this game is this: Empathy is good.

“This would be great if it wasn’t what it actually is” seems to me an overly elaborate rationalization of trying and failing to like something because everyone else is talking about it.

I’m coming up on a birthday later this month and the older I get, the more the entire month of July becomes a reflection on making the…

Ummmmmmm...yeah all day long. My PS4 was horribly loud and I followed an FAQ to disassemble and clean it. Since it required disassembly to the point of separating the heat sink from the CPU you need to clean the up the old and replace the thermal paste (which was crusty and obviously poorly applied when manufactured).

I think you’re missing the point. Free of behavior that is clearly racist, disproving an accusation of racism is near impossible. Its like proving you didn’t commit a crime 30 years ago without being some place other than the crime scene and in documented detail. Context clearly shows you didn’t but I’ll ask anyways;…

Normally, no. But the original Last of Us is a Game of the Decade candidate solely because of its narrative. Most of the fanbase who love the original game will outright admit that the actual gameplay is serviceable at best.

Yes and media reviews are being weponized for their own agenda. The game got 10/10 in mass not just because of its qualities. But because of the agenda its pushing. This is weponizing reviews.
