But couldn’t one argue that rampant piracy caused the shitty practices you hate? Companies are greedy, yeah, but dollars to doughnuts the “incomplete at launch, complete via paid DLC” thing wouldn’t be nearly as prevalent if devs and publishers didn’t anticipate legions of people stealing their work.

“No one should be denied something because they can’t afford it” works great for basic things like food, water, healthcare. Not so much for fucking videogames.

Lightning cable. I see now from another comment that it’s sold out. :(

In the abstract, Sad Satan does not seem like a particularly ‘good’ game. It’s literally just walking up and down a hallway, over and over again.

I’m just amazed and appalled at this game, and how Bungie’s handling it. I was so excited about it, I bought it without any hesitation (and I don’t buy games often these days), I defended it to all detractors, and just...I can’t do it anymore. What the fuck happened to this company? What happened between the Halo…

My friends and I watched Playmakers religiously in college. We were crushed when they cancelled it. It was a total soap opera, but raised some good points about shit that (presumably?) goes down within professional football.

Apparently she can’t, and at this point is all “lol whatever dude” because she said something dumb she can’t be arsed to actually defend.

Ok!

Can you link me to something about that? Dunno why I need any more rage in my life, but still...

If only, Matt.

Well. Agree to disagree. I can’t do anything but condemn these peoples’ tactics as dumb-assery that weakens their points and makes the professor look like the one truly wronged.

Sidenote, the link to My Title IX Inquisition doesn’t appear to work. It’s for subscribers only.

I like her and I work at Jezebel.

Ah, but Herr Doktor, these rules are for her own good. Whereas your rules would be to satisfy your own patriarchal desire to control your daughter’s sex life.

The half-assed mneh, mneh, well I wouldn’t say I support using Title IX but she has to be taken to account mneh mneh in these comments is just amazing. We have feminists in the comments on a feminist blog refusing to outright condemn use of a lawsuit to silence a female professor. And some of them have stars. STARS!

I mean, I think men in their forties who only want to date 18 year olds are creeps. But 18 year olds are trusted to drive, get married, enter into contracts, vote, join the military and buy cigarettes. You gotta start trusting them to be grown-ups at some point.

“Harmful”? Isn’t that going a bit far?

Well put.

Speaking as a bi guy, remind me not to invite you to my hypothetical gay wedding.
