Also, being able to passively sell (while you’re away) is another factor. I played numerous MMOs where setting up a shop even while offline was an option. Prices rose because players discovered since they weren't seeking buyers they could set prices and buyers would find them instead.

I enjoy playing it. It isn't great but it has its moments. I do wish there was an option to turn off his little outbursts. To me they kill the immersion.

That rating is deserved. People like to complain that it’s like every other open world game but if we’re being honest, those are the same people who would also complain if they “reinvented the wheel” because “[insert their favorite game’s name here] did it better so why not go with that instead?” There’s no pleasing…

Yep. Same here. I'm awake twenty hours a day and still don't have the time to sit through a lengthy video. A transcript would be great.

Oh, and you want to discuss picking and choosing context. The only context that matters is the intent of the party involved, not how it was received by someone with him skin. You're just as guilty of picking and choosing what context matters as anyone else. That's some pretty transparent bullshit.

Having your feelings hurt does not mean it is a racist act. So many stupid people out there seem to think that claiming something is racist makes it so. So someone’s feelings were hurt by a cosplayer who wasn’t trying to be offensive. It’s time for poeple to grow up. If initiation is the highest form of flattery then…

It’s a MMORPG. Just play the race according to lore. I’m glad Square doesn’t cater to every gamer with an axe to grind.

Welcome to the club. I’m fond of the phrase “get off my lawn.”

I will never understand why people religiously watch streamers. I've watched an hour or so of games I was considering buying. But watching it like a television show seems pointless.

No argument here. Loot boxes are unregulated gambling plain and simple. They’re chance games, no different than buying scratchers at a gas station.

In other news, some Apex players have more money than brains or self-control. In coincidentally unrelated news, studies show loo boxes have the same psychological effect on gambling addicts as gambling.

I have copied of the launch version of FFXI running as a private server on a laptop. The Darkstar project allows you to download it, compile it for yourself privately and even play it using a third party launcher on their private servers with others. I had to modify the source code a bit to make it play more like a…

Why not just make your case in written form? I find videos irritating when there's a dissertation explaining why I should watch it.

BBetween the negative posts about it's problems and the lack of anything interesting from people who do enjoy it I don't see the point in even giving it a chance.

Disney needs to cut ties with EA. As a lifelong ganer and Star Wars fan, I won't be purchasing anything from EA for the foreseeable future. I'd love to see the EA stock worth pennies. 

Did it ever occur to you that the game paints police as good because out of thousands of cops in NYC the vast majority are good people? This is the second article in as many days that seems to be complaining that the cops are depicted as evil dicks.

Someone doesn't understand Spider-Man or comics. Peter is a man of the people doing g what most cops in NYC set out to do every day: make the city safer. You live in a city where thousands of cops don't oppress anyone every day. Maybe it's time to accept that a few bad apples aren't representative of the population --…

You don’t fix bad behavior with bad behavior. You don’t fix sexism by implementing more sexism. I work in an environment that has a very successful program to educate people about how to overcome discrimination and help promote women in the workplace. It’s successful because it’s honest about what it’s goals are and…

It's ... A puddle. For fucks sake go watch the gameplay videos. Some gamers are just twats.

It wasn’t “intentional?” That seems like he admits plagarism but not motive. Does he think it was accidental? This is the problem with people. It’s not enough that it happened. This guy has to make it worse by trying to passively justify and excuse the behavior by not taking responsibility. It's like the age old "well…
