Ah, the eternal refrain of the stupid: Posting a GIF when even they realize that they have nothing meaningful to say. 

“If similar websites are actually giving a shit about avoiding spoilers, it’s absolutely a legit complaint when Kotaku writers don’t.”

Quoted from my original post:
“Apparently I should just avoid Kotaku whenever a new game I’m interested in comes out.”

I’m not the one that can’t figure out that there exist people that wouldn’t want to know that a boss from previous games in a series appeared in a new game. This isn’t a concept limited to me; hell, there are even other people in the comments section of this article complaining about the spoiler in the headline.…

Huh, I never saw that article. I would’ve been annoyed by it, as well though. I don’t get why it’s so hard to just write headlines like, “Nintendo Showcases an Familiar Face in New Metroid Dread Trailer”. 

It’s nothing about a “personal embargo”. It’s a simple concept, and I don’t get why you can’t get your head wrapped around it:
Shortly after a game comes out, regardless of what might be in the trailers, don’t mention names of bosses that might be spoilers in a headline.

Not really. All I’m complaining about is that the spoiler is in the headline. If it wasn’t, I could easily then do this crazy thing called “not click on the article” and not be spoiled.

Why does this matter? Clearly, I haven’t seen that trailer. Maybe some of us try to avoid trailers and press releases, specifically so that we can be surprised when we’re playing the game.

I am such a Saturn nerd that it is bothering me immensely that the design of NiGHTS from the terrible Journey of Dreams (Wii game) is being used in the image for this article...

Wow... I’m still waiting on my copy to arrive, and had no idea that Kraid was in the game. Thanks for spoiling it in the headline...

Super disappointed in this. Honestly, was kind of hoping it was Iwata (don’t think that would be disrespectful; probably be a homage he would appreciate) or Sakurai or something cool like that.

Nope; will continue boycotting this due to Spidey exclusivity. 

Yes, use wipes like this, and have fun when your pipes get clogged up and sewage starts overflowing out of your toilets. Then you get to spend $1000+ on a plumber and getting water damage fixed! What a deal!

There exist people who enjoyed Death Stranding, so... some people just love tedious games. ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

I think you meant “Gamecube” for which console you enjoyed Monkey Ball on, as there were no Monkey Ball games released on the beloved Dreamcast (it had been abandoned by Sega for awhile when Monkey Ball came out). 

This one hurts. I got into WKUK back in the late 2000s (?) which I guess was around the time it was airing (but I found them on Youtube, so who knows). I remember I found the “Gallon of PCP” sketch on Youtube while bored at work, and Trevor’s exaggerated facial expressions and vocal inflections hooked me immediately,…

IF Miura left detailed notes on how the final 10% or so of Berserk would play out, I would appreciate those notes being used to post a summary or maybe a season of anime (made by a top notch studio this time) being made around.

And while not a Game Pass game, Death’s Door looks absolutely fantastic. So ye old Xbox is getting a bunch of great stuff this month. 

Splatoon would like to have a word with you. 

Wow. This looks terrible. When they announced this, in my head I was imagining FF I-VI redone in Octopath Traveler style. This... is not that. I guess I expected way too much of Squeenix.
