The funniest part of this joke to me is still that the guy who did the conlang left out the verb “to be” as a bit.

Well now, to be fair, Microsoft can only commit to providing ActiBlizz content to Nintendo if Microsoft owns ActiBlizz content.  They could have done a deal for Microsoft content separate from ActiBlizz but the agreement above in question is specific to a single piece of ActiBlizz IP.

They literally address the pre-alpha bits as things they’re not judging. I’m beginning to question your reading comprehension.

“If this shit ends up true, they’ll have to somehow pry their money back from the purchase/support of the game lest they become retroactive hypocrites supporting a misogynistic piece of shit.”

Texas also has really good anti-SLAPP laws.  Logan Paul should ask Vic Mignona how well Texas defamation suits go.

“Spilled the tea” is not the right phrase to use here. They didn’t spread negative gossip about someone. They made a product announcement.  If you want to use a slang term involving losing control over an ingestible, use “spilled the beans”.

I mean, considering where the name “fascism” comes from, it seems on-brand

Remember when Satoru Iwata took responsibility for poor business decisions by cutting his own pay in half?

Yea but that’s just retail work in general

I hope Crime Pioneer is in the thought cabinet in the sequel

You can’t fault the authors of the text for the contents of the text?  That’s...an interesting position, to say the least.

I know it probably wasn’t, but I would love for the payoff to have been that they did find treasure and the joke, retroactively, was on the instigator

Except that, as WotC has argued in their filing, the trademark is not really abandoned.  So I hope they get every single thing they deserve.

I played it right after having a lot of fun with the similarly-disliked FFXII, and...it was just unremarkable and boring to me.  Production value being used to paper over a standard JRPG plot and tepid mechanics.  Of course, FFX also turned me off, so if it’s going for the same audience, I understand why I disliked it.

We have different definitions of “coerce” if you think “you should buy Nier: Automata” counts as coercion to you.

This may be true but XBox has two SKUs in the current gen, and one of them (series S) seems purpose-built to get into Playstation homes and ingratiate GamePass. In that way, it feels like they’ve taken a cue from Nintendo almost. Release a low price point, low profile console that can easily sit as a way to lower…

Oh boy, I hope the anti-consumer billionaire conglomerate I’ve tied my identity to is able to win out over the anti-consumer billionaire conglomerate other people tied their identity to! I have a healthy relationship to media!
