I don’t feel that I deserved that kind of response... I was just voicing what I thought was a pre-determined romance given the way Kasumi was presented. I felt that the story was pushing them together. If you interpreted it differently then that is totally ok! 

When playing Persona 5 Royal you will see that he (and I will NOT spoil anything here) is practically thrown at Kasumi over a pseudo-shared experience. The way it is written it is almost encouraged. So, yes, you can argue that there is a canonical heterosexual romance in Persona 5 Royal.

Ironic that being on Twitter, a platform owned currently by a transphobic bigot, is the place to learn about transphobic bigotry....

I always found it funny that for a site that is gaming news the people who read it sure do hate gamers...

I find it incredibly ironic that the majority of these discussions have taken place on platforms where their owners are actively fighting against trans rights, on devices built by sweat shops and likely wearing clothes made by children in foreign countries. The density of the hypocrisy is uncanny.

Unpopular opinion but... Are we just angry that it is China that is getting your data? The American government has been using data collection from facebook, instagram, youtube, etc. etc. etc. ALL social networks need to be shut down, not just the ones who feed your data to the people you don’t like.

I never would have thought to check if mine were DM dice. I’ve been a forever-DM for about 20 years and I always wondered why one set of dice rolled better against PCs vs how terrible it rolls whenever I am (albeit rarely) a PC!

Agreed. I am excited to see how Bloober handles SH2.

There are, but not where the streamer lives. There aren’t any such things in place given that the affected city has had a TON of hate crimes lately.

I think you are expecting too much of game journalists...
Not to resurface a dead joke but do you remember the Cuphead fiasco?

Your best bet is to try it yourself, however possible, and form your own opinions.

YES! You just perfectly encapsulated why I love this series! Well done!

I thought that Ranma was trans before visiting this site. Then I was told Ranma wasn’t trans. Then I am being told Ranma is trans.

Fair enough, I’m probably wrong. 

See, this is where the debate wages on, because on this very same website it was shown to me that Ranma can’t be considered a trans male because it was neither a) by his consent and b) due to the fact that he wasn’t born a woman but is cursed to become a woman under certain conditions. 

Apologies, I thought that is what you meant by bringing it up and within the context of an article about trans rights. My bad.

While I agree that their whole “western liberalism” rant is not well founded... Ranma is not trans. He is cursed to become a woman and refers to himself as a boy and consistently naysays the idea that he’s a girl. I can see why you’d think that but it isn’t that way unfortunately.

I agree, and I am grateful that you are being kind about it. I can only imagine how one would feel when they get bombarded by an army of people telling them “tHiS iSn’T aBoUt YoU!” with the tons of vitriol that would follow and yet be expected to not be a dick about it.

The hashtag says “whatagamedevlookslike”. I can understand their confusion. 

First playthrough, online doesn’t get unlocked until  after you beat him... If I remember correctly

For a gaming journo site Kotaku really seems to hate gamers.
