I feel like this has a “Classic Rock” feel to the discussion where there’s a distinct genre of older rock music while you could classify a lot of 90s or 00s rock as classic rock because of the age. Obviously more distinct style differences, but then again “Classic Rock” the genre expanded to 80s rock.

I’m not sure that will happen entirely. There’s a huge gap in what is being discussed in gaming media and you have places such as Kinda Funny and Minnmax popping up. But there will also be a new crop of Youtubers that expand gaming content to beyond what many of us dislike. We have some great long form video essays…

I have no problem with them making these characters obtain their powers by awakening them. It actually gives us some character development, regardless of how small or weak it is. 

Twitch is no longer just gaming so really I don’t care about streamers of any gender who don’t game. Hasan Piker’s rise was purely based on non-gaming aspects of his streams.

Fuck this dude totally. And I don’t want to discount how many men act this way and women feel the pressure to be a certain weight or look a certain way, but I do find comments about it being primarily men a bit wrong. Not that a lot of men aren’t like this.

I think it’s important to ask him if he has something like an S-Corp set up. That would lessen his tax burden a bit. I understand saying you’re not an accountant, but imo it is a weak excuse. To readers, it comes off as if you didn’t look into state taxes in CA with a simple website or look up the cut Twitch gets in…

Not to deny there are cheaters, but I play a lot of Warzone and rarely run into cheaters. Maybe this is more of a PC thing? I’m not sure since cross-play is always enabled for me, but I’m not sure how lobbies work exactly with Warzone when it comes to that stuff.

It is frustrating whether it is a FPS or sports game or…

It’s basically oh it’s racism. It’s sexism. But they voted for a rapist and a person who denied trans people in prison surgeries. It’s all just trying to act like they’re more noble. 

Ageism. Yes because old fucking ghouls destroyed the economy. Those are the people that got so many addicted. Stop acting like dumbasses on the internet who say retard or autist are actively harming anyone. You’re trying to be upset at people because you have no power to actually do anything good in the world. Calling…

WTF are you talking about? Calling someone retarded is not alt-right. The Q statement is an insult to people who follow Qanon. The rest isn’t anymore more than anger at the system. 

The intention of OP here is to explain that whiteness is ever changing. Jews weren’t considered white in America until post WW2 for example. Jacob Gellar’s video on Wolfenstein, Whiteness, and Judaism is a good watch to help explain race in America.

I just hope that next year they make AC:NH a deeper game. The problem with the Switch for me is the lack of reasons to come back. I really wish Nintendo came out with some deeper games. AC:NH seems to be the perfect game to release more content for and build on what they have. Heck if they enriched villager dialogue…

Doesn’t EA have a thing like this or did? Someone did I believe, but am not 100% sure. I felt like they did with a Madden title. Personally, I believe an issue with a demo would be that besides some bugs, the first hour of Cyberpunk 2077 is enough to get someone to buy it. So you may have a lot of titles with polished…

People shit on Kotaku for being like the CP2077 hype is too much and for being like this game is meh, it’s good but not genre defining as it was marketed as. Now we have proof there’s tons of issues and places where it’s not that great. I want gaming outlets to shit on these AAA games instead of hyping them up. Gaming…

They didn’t allow people to review the PS4/XB1 versions and never showed gameplay. You’re blaming people for not having access to the info and pre-ordering games instead of CDPR which marketed this game as a genre defining experience. Even without the bugs and poor graphics, the AI in this game is horrible. PS5/XSX…

Twitch should be doing more for disabled viewers and streamers to have a better time on the platform. This is similar to clapping for healthcare workers while ignoring CDC guidelines. Twitch removing this tag doesn’t make the platform better for any person with a disability. Especially since blind isn’t used as a…

This guy is dumb, but I also like that Nintendo had to deal with a petty legal dispute since they always take down fan made content or anything fun fan related they don’t want out there, but is harmless. 

Totally. Also exclusives aren’t an issue. In fact they can help certain games get made that might not be able to because they’re system sellers so they get more funding and love.

The console war stuff is not about exclusives as much as it is about people who are younger or immature needing to feel invested in…

I love how in neither scenario was it that he’s a sexual predator

Isn’t the 1984 angle a dig at Apple who made a commercial like that for the Macintosh? I’m not pro Epic here, but more anti-Apple despite opening their products. Apple has terrible practices and tbh this will do more good than politicians can do right now given who controls most of the levers of power.
