Two questions: why are the alien invaders called Natives? and why did the team in charge of character design put in so much more effort than everybody else?

Fried chicken and watermelon are very well-known racist stereotypes. Like...some of the most well-known negative stereotypes about African Americans dating back to the Civil War. You not being aware of it doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be moderated. Some imagery could be questionable, but the specific examples you’ve cited…

They are not doing us a favor by offering a Battle Pass that doesn’t expire, even though it “only has Cosmetics.” They... know we can remember the previous Batman games that just had costumes in them, right? Or the three Spider-Man games? Not gonna cheer you on for selling “just cosmetics” instead of including them as…

Don’t care, not buying a full price game with micro's anymore. Fuck what the industry has become. 

I do love the low commitment aspect. I believe they’ve crafted an experience that will demand pretty much 0 hours of my time. :P

Will we though? You’d think gamers would have learned that lesson after Cyberpunk or Anthem or Fallout 76 or any other overhyped piece of shit game with a flashy trailer ever since ET on the Atari. Hell, we’re probably less than a month before history repeats itself and we’re right back here after Kotaku writes…

I’d think the scarier thought is that they actually are….

No, genuinely, I wrote what happened. You know what—at no point from discovery to publication did the thought of how many people would click on it cross my mind, because it makes no difference to me at all. I just tend to hope that whoever does read it will enjoy it. That’s the end of my motivation. It’s lovely when I…

You know, I knew the boarding pass thing was lame as I wrote it. The truth is, the only thing I ever use a printer for is printing out cryptic crosswords.

It’s a real shame, bc suicide squad could be the foundation for a very inspired xcom-like.

“still full of the DNA that infuses the Batman: Arkham series”

While Rocksteady earned a good pedigree with their Arkham titles, this just appeals less and less to me the more we see of it.  Even if it wasn’t clearly a live service game, a Suicide Squad looter shooter isn’t something that gets on my radar.  Instead of grilling RS to say this is a live service game, they need to…

>Posts some general criticisms without even a single swear word

Who is “everybody”? I’ve yet to see or hear ANY hands on when it comes to this game.

Yeah no... 90's kid with little free time to play online and that means live service is right out. years of waiting for nothing...

I’m hearing Bungie repeatedly saying, “Destiny isn’t an MMO! It’s not! It’s really, truly not! It just looks like, smells like, sounds like, tastes like, feels like, is designed like, and is supported like a MMO but it’s not!”

I’ve been reading Kotaku for over a decade...possibly closer to fifteen years at this point. 

If only your comment was at all applicable even not counting BG3 articles, kid.

‘I thought that things will change for the better after Kotaku’s EIC removal from her position’

He also, even after taking great care of you, is willing to open up the relationship if that’s your jam.
