I decided to load up Steam and check it out for myself...

If you want to see the problem that they’re addressing, in varying degrees, look up Lost In Random, Mass Effect Legendary Edition, and Tales of Arise. That was a quick 5 minute scan, so I can only imagine how deep the problem truly runs.

“I didn’t mean to mislead anyone.”

Except... you did mean to... that was literally the entire point. You didn’t post
“hey, check out this cool mod we made!”

Mk 2 hate is so toxic that people target me just for riding one... so who is really the asshole there?

I would be entirely okay with them removing the PVP lock on entirely, but nerfing the lock-on of the best grinding vehicle in the game, ESPECIALLY in the same update that allows people to sell privately and avoid the…

Yakuza Dead Souls and the two Judgment titles come to mind. 

This kinda shit makes me wonder why I still come to this site... Might be time to haunt Polygon for awhile, at least until there’s something for them to spoil for me in their headlines before it even releases.

You seem to have a misunderstanding about the legalities of “independent contractors”.

It is perfectly within his rights to not allow his employees to not compete with his company. But he specifically doesn’t have employees. He has independent contractors. Part of being an independent contractor is the freedom to…

Yeah, I actively avoided making Trump comparisons, but it was in the forefront of my mind for sure. The big difference there is that government is so complicated, it’s easy to trick simple people into confusion. Something like this seems MUCH more cut and dry. But yeah, the Trump comparison is definitely appropriate.

I don’t understand Brock Lesner’s departure. What kind of clown is THAT devoted to a leader that actively uses and abuses the people under him? His insistence on keeping WWE stars as “independent contractors” in order to avoid medical liability WHILE ALSO preventing them from appearing in other wrestling circuits is…

Probably just spraypaint a Z on the engine and call it theirs.

“Once upon a time, Maurice think like you. But no longer. Maurice was not canceled, but awoken. Awoken to the struggles of the powerful, sensual woman in the Man’s world. Now, you must leave my show!”

“Up yours, woke moralist! We’ll see who cancels who!” (he storms off set)

I can’t believe anyone takes this tool seriously. His “serious” face mixed with that voice comes across as Rockstar Games level of parody.

his message is already reaching his intended audience, and anyone who CAN be converted to his beliefs has a different pipeline for that information to get to them.

I spent a decent amount of time in RDO and I can’t think of anything in it they couldn’t keep as an offline/LAN type experience. I don’t know of any game that HAS converted an Online portion to offline capability, but I hope against hope that they try it.

I saw this yesterday and was so goddamn annoyed at the stupidity on display, and the people trying to defend it in the comments.

He seems like a self-important dipshit spiraling after realizing it wouldn’t be long until he was caught. Trying to justify it with some laughable pseudo-intellectual mystique is just the icing on the dipshit cake.

yeah, I realized after re-reading the reply that name dropping the Ur Example of satire was imprecise and not totally apt. I was proposing a bad solution that I knew to be bad but presenting it fully in earnest.

In reality, I don’t know what the solution is here. It makes me happy when a financial advisor loses his…

They could easily do the Rockstar thing and redefine the industry, redefine what it means to make a remake. They have the tools at their disposal. What they need is the corporate suit willing to sign the check to do so. And that’s the problem here.

If the Trilogy had been the old games built from the ground up in GTA…

Aren’t these all problems we already deal with though?

I get your point though, and like I said, my proposal is admittedly short-sighted and reactionary, but anonymity hasn’t prevented these issues, and in most of these examples, the response needs to be better training when responding to SWAT incidents, with a higher…

As an outspoken liberal in Wyoming, I definitely understand this. I’ve been harassed, threatened and followed home.

And this is what happens while being a burly, bearded, straight, white, cisgender male. I’m basically THE Wyoming default, and I still got that treatment. I can only imagine how much worse it would be if…

unfortunately, yeah... I currently live in Wyoming, and the comments under almost every article by the Casper Star Tribune are.... eye opening. Disheartening. I think it wouldn’t have gotten this bad, had anonymity not been so prevalent, but you’re probably right in that the cat is already out of the bag, and…
