The personal info of employees being leaked is terrible. But the data about upcoming titles and roadmaps like Wolverine is well deserving to get leaked. You wouldn’t have as serious an issue these days if the industry as a whole wasn’t so darn secretive. Honestly, when they know something, they should be transparent…

I’m excited by how its success might convince AAA publishers to actually invest in CRPGs again. Will the next Dragon Age return to its roots? Maybe MS will greenlight remakes of Fallout 1 and/or 2? We might even see Pillars of Eternity 3 or Wasteland 4.

Very happy for Larian and Baldur’s Gate 3.

There was a case where a white female cosplayer made a full-body costume for a black male character. This was a body suit with fake muscles and everything. Naturally, the body suit had a dark pigmentation to match the character’s. People freaked out about this and accused her of using blackface.

Americans use the terms “cultural appropriation” and even “black face” so incorrectly they’ve completely lost all meaning. You stupid fucks need to figure out what you’re upset about quick because one day something actually offensive will happen and we won’t have the language to describe it

One aspect of piracy that’s less discussed is the files typically have less DRM and platform restrictions. You’re less likely to be locked to a specific console or player which removes one of the primary concerns with digital about losing access based on the whims of the studios. I think it’s one of the reasons…

Torrenting can't be stealing if paying for it isn't owning.

Something something high seas, something something torrent.

They really should be taken to court for this. Licenses expiring is a common thing in digital distribution. The solution is to pull the licensed content from the store, not user libraries. That’s been the standard practice for games, I don’t see why it should be any different for movies or TV shows.

This is one of the many reasons I’ve started collecting blu-rays and 4k discs in 2023. 

What’s about

This is the only acceptable answer. 

No

Where the fuck is the next hero shooter successsor, why is that game collecting dust lobbies? Bring Paladins back you cowards

Because the game at one point was very fun.

Please, for the love of God. Stop. Playing. Overwatch. OW fans are the most masochistic self-hating whiniest, whinging little dorks. Why do you play just to hate yourself and the game? STOP GIVING THEM MONEY. 

You guys are getting to the point where it seems like deliberate ignorance of what’s happening.

Agreed. I recognize that as a straight man, maybe I am a bit ignorant to certain issues but I do try to educate myself whenever I have the opportunity. I do know that it’s important to have queer (and other) representation, but writing the main character as a straight teenager without the option to pursue a gay…

When Ryuji asked the question, I fully expected my options to be limited exclusively to the women in the room, as that would reflect the original Persona 5’s extremely limited view of romance.

I haven’t played any of the Persona games, but I feel like “the main character isn’t gay” isn’t the same thing as homophobia. Like, I know it’s a role-playing game and he’s the main player character of the game and so ostensibly the role that you are getting to play, but just because you can make a lot of other…
