If you were a Kindergarden Pokémon fan, this is second nature.

It seems a little silly to me, but I'll show due respect and just turn the other cheek.
You can attribute games not having black protagonists to the fact that most game developers are either Asian or white. You want games from your race's perspective, and that is perfectly okay; Support black developers when they appear. What you have to remember is, just as you would likely make a game featuring a black…
Yeah, I noticed that people like to conviently forget Bioshock 1 existed so that they can use Bioshock Infinite as a "Herr, durr, durr, religion eez stupeed, and Leveenes's agrees." The Bioshock franchise as a whole can be taken as a warning against misplaced "enlightenment" and misplaced "religiousness." Both…
Why does Wonder Woman look as if she has taken numerous steroids?
I never assumed that, but when you make a claim that it was a war for slavery, you are very much diluting everything the Civil War actually sprung from. There were countless economic and social issues that led to the Civil War, it's just more convenient to believe that it was slavery centric; Black and white are more…
Actually, for someone who claims to be well versed in history, you sure don't seem to have the slightest clue what the Civil War was actually about. The percentage of people who actually owned slaves in the south was actually a minority division. Most common people couldn't afford them, and as such, most slaves were…
The few (to use a pretty popular term) non-social-justice-warrior writers who can just simply choose not to buy a game instead of slandering the developers over non-existent offenses such as yourself are what hasn't made me completely jump ship from Kotaku.
You clearly have a vision of what games should be like. You obviously possess the capacity to type and access the internet. Start disciplining yourself and get out there and make it happen by creating, not forcing others to pander to you.
Yeah, I know, right? I'm a male, and it annoys me when guys say that they can't enjoy playing as a female protagonist. I only ask that females give me the same consideration. Saying that a gender/race swap-out would make a game better is exceedingly sexist/racist.
She never said that it was "just commentary", she said it was her review thus far and there was more to come. The game won't get any "gayer" as she progresses. Tomodachi Life has been all but literally burned at the stake by writers on Kotaku. Also, she has yet to deny that this is her review, even going so far as to…
The thing is, it doesn't really feel like you are reviewing the game. You never once mentioned anything aside from "It's not homosexual enough, therefore it isn't good." Let me start off by saying, I am in no way against homosexuality. As a Christian, the part of me that feels that love is the driving force behind my…
I imagine the study about piracy is due to word-of-mouth advertising. Especially in today's economy, people are reluctant to spend money on anything new or untested. People who pirate, while not sinless, do seem very likely to be a good source of sales, indirectly. I buy games and movies more often than I pirate, but…
It might be a blend of a lot of things. The vegans probably don't live as long due to not receiving many beneficial nutrients. While I myself love animals, I know that it's part of nature that we require meat. The supplements that many of them take as a substitute tend not to be as easily digested and welcomed into…
They've taken to calling Kotaku a blog, not a news site. Probably the only reason I come here is because it is the easiest place to get game/anime news. I just wish they would do more reporting and less social commentary.
I'm not really speaking about the petition. If you remain respectful, I believe in voicing opinions. What I'm referring to are the articles that have surfaced over the past couple of weeks damning Nintendo and calling them insensitive. I believe that one of these articles was actually written by our very own Jason,…
It's all the same, apparently.
I admit it may have been a bit crass of me to use a general term to address the more fanatical people, I'm just growing tired of being told it's insensitive to not include homosexuality in every game, movie and show. I apologize for my rude behavior, but I still stand by freedom of expression and a creator's right to…
I loved Dragon's Crown. :P
