I do agree that dogpiling and brigading are big problems, especially when vulnerable people are the target. While I don’t think Paul in particular is in any danger b/c of the response to his furniture project, it is definitely all part of this bigger trend of “digital media that incites anger and hate tends to do…

I never said Game Boys are like human lives. I was pointing out that your implied statement “You cannot criticize someone for anything they do with legally purchased property” does not address any of the moral/ethical concerns being presented in the first place. It’s a non-argument.

I’m sorry I’m too busy buying up all the COVID tests at every pharmacy in town to encase them in resin to respond.

Stop telling people what to do with their property.

You’re totally on-the-money, and I suspected that’s what DumBeetle really meant ...but I still couldn’t help myself and had to be a bit of a pedantic wiseass. Despite the awful predatory behavior of its creator, Ren & Stimpy was a show that in many ways helped rejuvenate interest in the classic animation styles of the…

Honestly, I’m a stickler for animation quality, and although I agree with everyone here that they failed to capture the actual feel of the game, this all looks at least disciplined from a composition and movement perspective. It’s definitely pretty, in other words, and doesn’t cut nearly as many corners as I’d expect.

You mean Ren and Stimpy, the hand-drawn show that was specifically meant to evoke animation techniques and styles from the 40s to early 60s? No, can’t imagine they could make Cuphead in that era.

According to the thread, it sounds like the guy got the game running in a compressed, virtualized version, and then this program outputs rasterized pixels to the hardware in a perfect approximation of the 3d engine.

Your nihilism/anti-moralism sucks, and your actions do affect others, especially those who are older or disabled or immunocompromised. But go on tooting your own horn for doing the easier thing. You’re such a big boy for meeting Goofy and drinking punch and having a big dance with your friends at the beach. Maybe next…

Wish Kotaku had that level of follow-through

I write for truck accident lawyers sometimes (I know prob not your fav people) and I’d have sooooo many questions for you, if you’re willing and able.

Hope the kid still has cash set aside to pay for those gift taxes

I’m not always impressed at the custom keycaps that are more or less uniform swirly designs or that have, like, one decently sculpted resin figure embedded within them and yet sell for an arm and a leg.

TIL that even though Bolo Yeung has largely retired from acting, he emerges once every ten years to remind people of his dominance.

Lol sounds elegantly similar to my idea for scaling down social media troll accounts: just start charging $5/month for Facebook, Twitter, Insta, etc. That way, it gets real expensive real quick to operate a troll farm, and it’ll be easier to spot billing going to a single source even with attempts to funnel money. Yes,…

I can’t think of any appropriate punishment that isn’t both cruel and unusual. Maybe forcing him to play through every game in Action 52 every hour of every day could get a pass by a Neo-Geo-loving judge?

My statement above was meant to be ironic, but I do fear that the whole scheme will stick around in some form or another well into the future, even if just to rear its ugly head a few times a year with rolling development announcements.

Also, I was quoting people like this whose sales pitch is basically “get used to…
