Listen, I get not wanting to take a loss on hardware, especially when every other attempt (barring the Index, maybe) has failed miserably.

That said, Valve has spent the last 20 years making BILLIONS off the backs of other devs/publishers, and has done absolutely fuck all because of it. They make hundreds of millions a…

If I recall, Hello Games also did themselves the favor of shutting the fuck up for a year or so until they cam back with their bigger content patches.

Nah man. Being a fan of something doesn’t mean you can’t poke fun at it or criticize it. That’s a ridiculous notion. If you go to the subreddit it’s just a lot of people having a good time at the expense of a game that didn’t deliver on certain promises or expectations.

Are we not allowed to say a game was shipped broken because it might have negative consequences? 

Corporate didn’t really get “fucked”, as they turned the game into a profit in the first week if I remember right. They get to keep making money now, as sales continue, despite the game being *not good* (and it really, truly is just the most average game at the end of the day).

“Restaurants have come a long way since Ug picked that berry.”

Another thing that drives me nuts is when news stories about games start off with “Games have come a long way since Pong...” And they ALL do it.

Pong hasn’t been relevant for 40 years. You don’t see stories about movies start out with “films have come a long way since Roundhay Garden Scene”

In other words, they sacrificed the largest asshole so that the lesser assholes could keep acting like assholes.

As someone who has worked at a place with lots of remote workers for 10 years, and also has a lot of female friends who transitioned to remote during COVID, lemme just say, men had no trouble transitioning to harassing women via video / Teams / text / etc. even though it literally left a physical record in many cases.…

it would make 100% more sense if he sat on the shitter and played pokemon.. that’s what I would do as soon as i got home from work.

Nah nah. He’s a father waiting on his family. Polo shirts are like, dad armor, you know? He noticed his kid left their backpack in the car while waiting. He picked it up and noticed his naughty kid brought their switch to school when they were told not to.

In the next commercial, I want to see someone playing Switch at a funeral.

“He was SUPPOSED to be 5 feet to the right (i.e. in the next room on the toilet) but those prudes from Standards & Practices wouldn’t have it.”

XD I’d say he was already waiting outside and gave up—came in. Ditched some things and decided to play.

None of you truly understand the deep meaning behind this beautiful and powerful display by Nintendo.

Waiting for the rest of his family to get so ready so they can go out but they’re all taking forever and instead of pacing or impatiently watching the clock--dudes chillin with his switch. He knows whats up.

Well they’ve obviously got to be able to sit directly over your shoulder while you tap into the zeitgeist. There will be no unsupervised zeitgeisting on Kotaku’s watch. 

Yeah, you certainly can’t claim pokimane is over the top if you are at all a fan of Dr Disrespect, Ninja, xQc, or yeah, really any popular streamer.

Here’s another person with Crohn’s hoping that you can find remission as well.
