“with because it’s intent on maintaining that its hero is no matter what a hero.”

Yeah...no.  Not at all. 

I’ve been kind of expecting something like that. Though to be fair, that last preview was the first time that I believed that Starfield could be solid.

The good thing is that all one has to is buy a month of gamepass and try it out.  

But they will absolutely shutter it at some point. The PS3 store is essentially useless: you can’t access it on the internet (unless you go through some weird bypass), the Ps3 store on the actual console is outright broken, and the only way you can purchase anything is having to add money to your balance or via gift…

“Same with the developers. Things are not black and white.”

You’re kind of moving the goal post, especially with where you started out as. We are complicit in a capitalist society because we have to live in one. We have to pay the bills. We have families to feed. We have to live. But we do not bare personal…

Ah yes the “well people in Africa have it worse mentality” there’s that labor spirit.

This guy gets it. That IGN rant read like something you’d might find on a alt-right blog.

Then you do research, and read reviews, and maybe not pre-order games based on hype alone. There are plenty of things consumers can do to defend themselves and their wallets from shoddy products.

Moreover, no one is saying that you should still buy bad games because you’re “sympathetic” to a game dev.  Not only does…

Gonna post this once again.

But no one sets out to make a bad game. And even the worst games imaginable still take a shit ton of time and effort to create. Understanding the process is not about hand waiving bad games, but about having empathy for an industry we claim to care about and an understanding why certain things are the way the are.

You…

I swear it’s astounding how so many “so called gamers” are absolutely incurious about the hobby they claim to enjoy.

Right? Like Kotaku is a gaming culture website and it makes articles centered around gaming. And guess what’s pretty big in gaming right now? Streamers.

If Kotaku has change, it’s because the culture has change.  Not that hard to understand.  

I think this says more about you as a person if you think this article counts as “sexual click bait.”

Some red flags here.

1. It’s her body, she can do whatever she wants with it.
2. Where does it say that she claims the people who wanted more from her are “horrible”
3. She doesn’t owe any of the people who gave her money jack shit. They paid for a service, she provided. And now she’s choosing to walking away from that stuff.  I do not see…

I think I’m with you on this, and I think the worst thing Bioware did was change the endings to the less interesting extended endings.  I really loved the discourse surrounding the original ending, even going as far as buying into the theories surrounding it.

So...bots then?

Exactly.  If they didn’t do it to Minecraft, why the hell would they do it to Call of Duty.  Particularly when Minecraft is the bigger game.

They all but admitted that that was the case, with Jim Ryan all but admitting that he didn’t really believe that Microsoft would make Call of Duty exclusive.

CoD was just big enough target to try to take down the deal.

In the long term this will likely be bad, but only in the context of giant conglomerates increasingly eating up smaller studios as it becomes entirely too expensive to create video games a that aren’t bullshit f2p nonsense. I don’t really buy this idea that this is the start of Microsoft’s take over of the industry, a…

What matters is context. That’s why people don’t bat an eye towards Vader, but might have an issue with Homelander. Star Wars is a good vs evil morality tale that rarely ever rises above the simplicity of its source material. The Boys is a complex deconstruction of super heroes and ultimately how capitalism white…
