Dammit, he was only 3 years older than me.

Sure thing! I forgot that an expansion is about to drop. I’m used to Blizzard’s fall schedule for expansion launches. I saw the chocobo mounts in that Crystal cinematic and was like, “Yes please!” lol. Yeah I figured being a MMO there would be an elitist environment to it. But hopefully joining your guild (clan? Not…

There is a more disturbing aspect to that as well. I read an article recently about how insurance companies in the US basically bury mental health resources. They link a bunch of numbers that you would think would reach a therapist or a facility. But instead many are either non-working numbers or a random McDonald’s.…

Hello again! Did my DM get to you on Twitter? Wanted to make sure.  :)

Funny you mention that, I recently setup a trial account for FFXIV. Blizzard has been making boneheaded moves with WoW lately so I’m looking for an MMO experience elsewhere.

Please don’t apologize! I figured you had other things going on and was busy at the moment.

Oh! What are the odds of finding another Arizona resident on Kotaku lol. Yeah I’m just outside of Phoenix, on Dunlap AVE right near i-17 and N 25th AVE. I would love any renting suggestions you can make. I looked at Scottsdale near my employer in that Keirland Commons area and about had a stroke. I’m not familiar with…

No I don’t mind you chiming in!

Fair enough, I understand the fear of sharing contact details. Some can get very...threatening online.

Hey Arn, is there way to PM you on this site? Or another method if you’d prefer? I don’t feel I can trust anyone by leaving a public comment for all to read. I know we’ve had aggressive interactions in the past but you seem willing to talk to those who ask.

Are all Canadians as Xenophobic as you? Or are you a specific kind of shitheel that has internet access? And no, it’s not “the end.” Not by a fucking Longshot. No one’s lives are on the line with video games. It’s worker abuse, you need to fucking deal with that reality. “The end.”

Okay, but does breaking tradition mean relationships need to be a thing now? And pretending that AC is an RPG? Why does my character have a more active libido than a damn teenage boy? If it’s a stealth-action game with the iconic hidden blade weapon, and I need to spec into stealth to make it an AC game, then Ubisoft…

It’s a good game, but it’s not an AC game. Moving away means that now the game needs relationships that Ubisoft couldn’t even get right? Why? Is this AC or Mass Effect? Moving away means we need characters that hump anything with a pulse no matter the situation? Why is this a RPG now, or a pseudo-RPG. Nothing in this…

Im sorry, keep the world order In check? The US is not the moral arbiters of the world. Stop spreading this false narrative.

A dick measuring contest with income, how cute. I await to see your W2's. And no, it’s quite literally not. If this was an industry that is life and death then yeah, maybe. But since it’s not this is just employee abuse. So again, pull your head out of your ass.

HUD is something that devs need to get right the first time, not several months down the road. If you ar constantly reminded of how bad it is, then they didn't do a good job.

A you are forced to work overtime but the devs are not? Are you chained to your fucking desk or something? Also, you work more hours than average which means your productivity is dropping by the end of the week. You aren't doing yourself any favors.

You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of hard work. I so tire of people not knowing the difference either through wilful ignorance or lack of sympathy for other humans on the fucking planet.

Square Enix stills fucks up and deserves that distrust that’s being displayed here. When they stop being being stupid they’ll stop getting cynicism. 

This was also the same company that:
