I don’t recall anyone pitying Dolezal. Maybe because she wasn’t famous? Doesn’t necessarily have to be a “white” thing.

Sure, she’s clearly had many years to work on the illusion. Doesn’t excuse it, it’s just good business if you’re a goddamn liar.

Mmm... no.

Wow, seriously on the Ave Maria? That would be hilarious if it wasn’t to appallingly inappropriate and heinously stupid.

Motivation is irrelevant when we’re talking about such bad, toxic behavior. And I don’t think Alec cares, as long as he can just keep pumping babies into a much younger woman.

And of course she blames the media she loves to act out for so much. What a slumpster!

I don’t either. The whole thing disgusts me. Get rewarded for providing a real benefit to society or doing something tangibly useful, and stop expecting to get rich or get handouts for sitting on your ass on the internet.

So she got free consoles (that millions of other people are denied) because she’s black. That doesn’t seem racist to you?

You’re preaching to the choir, here. But it’s strange that you can tell other people what IS and ISN’T their identity. Nine times out of ten, I see people on here spout virtue-signalling chestnuts like “speaking as an X (insert pretentious politically correct label here) gamer” etc. it sure seems like you’re dealing…

Why do console makers have to “do more”? Because an internet mob says so? Don’t understand the entitlement here. Attaching a made up issue to a hot-button topic doesn’t make it valid.

That’s... some excellent nut-shelling.

Yeah, good point. Why does everyone seem to want toxic, unlovable misfits to live through vicariously?

Exactly, and agreed. I don’t know why Larian had to take the venerable Baldur’s Gate name over. Just let it rest.

This is far from the first article/review posted by Kotaku that’s blatantly trying to stir shit. In practically every case, it boils down to the blogger being too stupid to play or enjoy the game, or that it’s just not the kind of game for them.

No, I disagree. Tying into “real life” isn’t what makes games more engaging and atmospheric. It’s choice, complexity, and mood setting.

Why is understand a pre-requisite? Just play. Or don’t.

OMG, thank you. I can’t believe how touchy and entitled people are getting. Especially over an early access game that nobody made them buy.

“Called out”? Is your life so uptight that you have to treat everything like you’re some whistleblower trying to expose something? It’s a fucking game. They have bugs, especially early. Sounds like this isn’t for you, chief.

You’re paying to help them test. That’s it.

If you’re playing an early access game, especially an RPG with so many moving parts, and you’re counting on it being a good experience to finish the game under? You’re fucking up.
