To me, it adds to the whole dynamic that the brother actually left the country and his family. He wasn’t able to live as himself in Japan, but he was in Canada, where he was able to meet a man, fall in love, and get married, which is not possible in his home country (the marriage part, anyway).

1) Canadian? Psh. America. /BaldEagleFlyingBy

Yup, a lot of gamers I know don’t like Kotaku because they focus so much on social issues (I don’t mind personally, though it does feel like every other article is about social issues I’m supposed to be mad about), but when it comes down to it, Kotaku is one of the better places for video game NEWS. I’ve always…

It’s hilarious that people LOVE putting down Kotaku for being “unethical” yet the proposed replacements are fucking garbage.

Anecdote: Kotaku has been pretty much my go-to source for the last 8 years give or take. My Discord filled with guildmates and other online gaming friends have some kind of Rage-Boner for the site. Something I’m reminded of everytime I try and share an article of something cool and they freak out.

I chose to review it because, as I said in the second paragraph, I was hoping that Takahashi and crew would make something I enjoyed more this time around.

Pro-tip for using a mouse, rest the bone at the base of your palm directly on the desk, grasp the mouse with your thumb and pinky, crank up your tracking speed and never pick your wrist off the desk, you use your thumb and pinky to move the mouse. I’ve been using mice 10+ hours a day since the early 90's never had an…

I’m guessing you’re one of those people who move their entire arm up to the shoulder when they move their mouse cursor, as if they’re upping their ante in a poker game.

I just can’t wrap my brain around it.

Just stick to reporting players that are cheating, players trolling or griefing or being bullish about not changing classes is too much of a gray area it seems if you report it too many times.

Wait... so you can report people for simply being bad at the game? That seems stupid. Is there not some sort of ranking system on place to handle that automatically?

What part of the word “temporary” are you having trouble understanding? This isn’t over at all.

I’m conflicted. On the one hand, loot boxes like BF2's are a predatory affair. On the other, I also paid full price for Overwatch and it tries to sell me stuff as well.

I never understood why anyone would want to watch other people play video games. I just don’t get it. Whoosh.

Holy shit.

Loneliness by choice is a great luxury. I’ve found out in the last few years that loneliness with no other option is brutal and sucks bad. :(
