Speedrunning. Speedrunners will use sequence breaks in an attempt to push the limit on what games can do and such to get the best times possible.

Bottom line is... banks are not our friends. They’re just the guys who get free money from our taxes to give to rich people who don’t pay taxes.

I feel like you completely missed the point of that video. On that note, I hope you didn’t watch this Indie World Showcase. The Saudi Arabian government has an 8% stake in Nintendo so any support you give to Nintendo (e.g. Youtube revenue) also helps fund the persecution of various minorities in Saudi Arabia.

Exactly. The video in question is literally shorter than a game trailer and can (more reasonably) be summed up as: “There’s no ethical consumption under Capitalism and also don’t form parasocial relationships with big names/companies.” It’s not whataboutism because it’s not part of any actual debate, plus it’s not…

This isn’t a “friendly reminder,” it’s stretching yourself into a pretzel to try and smear someone as a bigot.

Yeah, not quite. It’s a god damn comedy video. He’s not making a political statement or taking a stance on anything. It’s not like he went and tweeted “JK Rowling is the shit and only speaks the truth.” He’s making a funny video where he starts to play a game, then finds out it is linked to something controversial and…

Way to misinterpret the message of the video (there is no ethical consumption in a capitalism society) while also dismissing the sexual and physical abusers Dunkey highlighted in said video.

Talks about billions of variations, only shows one LOL

one of my biggest pet peeves in gaming is having these kinds of rewards behind insane requirements. Please, I’m an adult with a job, I already beat the game once, just let me go nuts with my shotgun with a simple cheat code.

I’ve never really understood the appeal of the loot grind. I have no problem with loot systems but once I’ve completed all of the interesting content (i.e. unique, well-designed quests/levels and POIs), I’m done playing. I’m not going to replay the same content a thousand times just to make numbers go up.

Yeah. In how many arcs did Luffy help reinstall/protect a monarchy? Five (including a shogunate)? In the Dressrosa Arc alone, he helps two monarchies.

Terrorist? Yes. Anti-globalist? Yes. Socialist? No.

I hope Kinja didnt make this the size of a monitor...

The real loss that’s going to sail over most people’s heads isnt the announcements or trailers or any of that dumb hype bullshit that can be accomplished with a tweet or a youtube video like they’re already doing

Yeah, this is needed but still disappointing.

its been going downhill for a long time. when i worked in the industry we got the free passes every year and the halls were pretty empty by the last in person one.

I don’t really agree with this take, the systems in place in BotW are definitely meant to encourage creativity and different solutions, and the survival elements were clearly never the focus (no hunger meter for example)

The last year or so of PC ports has pushed me fully back to console gaming. More and more, PC gaming seems to be asking you to brute force games with overwhelming GPU power and overkill amounts of VRAM with little to no optimization. Often, the answer to get games to run well is to lower graphics settings to a point…

There’s just no way these major publishers, platform holders even, can ship a remastered release of one of their critically acclaimed games and have it perform well. They just can’t afford to take the time and spend the kind of money required, much less actually do literally any meaningful testing.

You aren’t. But there are a lot of other great turn based titles still releasing. I’m fine with their tent pole game going for a higher audience so long as turn based is still being made elsewhere.
