You’ve been able to reacquire shaders for two years, since Forsaken introduced Collections. Have you really not played in two years? That’s not snark, I’m genuinely curious! You’ve missed SO MUCH, almost all of which has now been vaulted...curious to hear what a very lapsed player thinks of...everything.

Maybe I’m old, but I don’t get the Twitter’s obsession with asking a stranger a question for which you’ve already decided that there is only one acceptable answer. 

I agree everyone is entitled to wallow and have their pity party, the key is not to get stuck there. I know a person that has been stuck in his own pity party for 8 years now, 8 freaking years! He is pretty much just letting life pass him by because he is stuck.

yeah. There’s a lot of something that I haven’t quite figured out in how to get the balance between empathy and the truth that no, not everyone needs to feel good all the time and “sometimes your depression/anxiety/jerk brain lies to you.” Because both are true. But it seems like there’s a lot of backlash to ever…

“And right now, in 2020, I’m not sure whether/how anyone is in a good place.”

Are the writers here just bored anymore? Doctor of opinions over here trying to fluff that paycheck. Imagine thinking using periods right now in the world is an issue that warrants this type of write up...

People are arguing over masks because for four months, we’ve been receiving conflicting information about them from the CDC, the media, and you.

It’s fine. It’s easier than butter and crisps the bread well. What is it with you people and making these grand, unsupported statements, and acting like you’re doing something profound?

I really wish Nintendo would do a proper Super Mario RPG follow-up.

This writer has a checkered past on the site with clickbait and frankly irresponsible writing. 

Why the f*** isn’t the title to this piece “No, masks do not make you breathe more carbon dioxide”?

...I’m really starting to wonder If I should also find a new video games site...

Trying real hard not to let loose some anger and/or take it real personal that the video game-film genre has a huge chance at gaining legitimacy through Cate Blanchett’s casting... and Kotaku’s only take is to have one of its reviewers remind us that he doesn’t like Borderlands.

All shit that you would get on a PC with a proper display NOT in your fucking living room. I mean take away 144hz and the mouse/keyboard and you are playing a console.. a beautiful looking, yet fully overpriced $2,700 console. I’d bet that 90% of poeple could care less about the features you mentioned if they are…

So lemme get this straight.. you’re gonna take a $2,700 PC (overpriced as shit btw) and hook it up to an $800 60Hz TV? And then play on the couch with a game pad? You are aware of these things called consoles, right?

I think Jeff said something like 30ish options? But he mentioned “fall back” and that sold me. Not that anyone will listen to it. The closest thing now is to just spam the all-purpose, “Group up with me!”

There’s just something about getting onto voice chat—which really has nothing to do with other people being toxic…

So why isn’t everyone in China dead?

That’s honestly the gist of the kind of articles Grayson writes here. The subject has unfailingly always been about attractive female streamers, and he’s putting the spotlight on them. It comes across as him doing it to get the attention or get into the good graces of these streamers, and combined with creepy stories…

Oh yeah, I’ve actually got that one on my bookcase here at home. It’s pretty nice. The funny thing, though, is I also have a couple of the World of Nintendo Mario figures and those are honestly not that far behind it in terms of quality (at least, that’s the case with the Mario figures; the others don’t look nearly as…

They’ll never do it, but they really do need to let Yokotaro make his own Final Fantasy game. Nier Automata surprised the shit out of me over how much it pushed the boundaries of JRPG storytelling I like me some classical RPGing (see Dragon Quest XI), but I’m getting tired of watching the same anime tropes play out…
