I listened to presenters dispassionately drone on like press releases given flesh and rattle off tech specs like they were The Lord’s Prayer, and I couldn’t help but think, “This isn’t PC gaming.” Not really

Kinda suprised there hasn’t been more pc coverage this E3, I see that Gears Remaster is coming to PC, and AMD just announced a new Dual GPU fiji card. If kotaku needs another writer to help cover that space, I have been known to work in exchange for Steam Cards lol

People don’t seem to get the give-and-take that comes with tattoo artists and clients. You can get exactly what you want...but it’s still their work. Their art, part of their repertoire! They have every right to refuse a job, just like as a photographer I have every right to refuse a job that I don’t see fit for me. I…

The fact that you admit to having alcohol beforehand makes me side-eye a little bit...that and the other tattoo photos, not sure what the point was there. Some of them are really good. But if you want that tattoo so badly I’m glad you just kept going until you found someone who would help you. Artists have every right…

I hate to be Team Tattoo Artist, but just like you can decide where you want your tattoos, he can also decide what work he’ll stand behind and what he WON’T. Clearly you have artistic differences, as evident by your contempt of his other work. So why would you use him in the first place?

I understand why this was an upsetting experience, but tattoo artists refuse jobs all the time for all sorts of reasons. Many have a no necks, no hands policy - it’s quite common. And, as you discovered, what’s off-limits to one artist is totally okay with another - you were able to get exactly what you wanted in the…

CD Projekt Red visual effects artist José Teixeira discussed the controversy. “We didn’t ‘downgrade it.’” Teixeira said. “It’s impossible to downgrade a game that didn’t exist before or wasn’t playable before. [...]

If you think that some CG tits is what makes The Witcher franchise so interesting, you’re deluded beyond common reason.

Problem is, then it wouldn’t be a Witcher game. The TES games are my favourite series, in large part because of the character customization, but they can’t do that for a game based on a series of books that are intensely character-driven by Geralt and co.

Generic? Show me at least two other characters like him then, will you?

Geralt is a massive, far cry from “generic”. In fact, any character that you can create yourself is generic, limited to a flat baseline personality that anyone can squeeze their own interpretations into. Geralt, on the other hand, is an established character with two short story collections and five novels worth of…

This is the Witcher based on the Book the Witcher, based on the Character Geralt in The Witcher, if you weren’t playing as Geralt, then it wouldn’t have been called The Witcher.

Post-Flare powerless Superman is pretty fun.

I hear you on Superman III. However, Marvel had their burn-out in the 90’s. Everyone knows that story. Yet the Superhero genre in general did by the time Batman and Robin came out.

I hope so. Let’s face it, Supes is a standalone guy and he doesn’t need to have his world filled with a plethora of other heroes. Across Marvel and DC so many of those heroes would do so much better storywise if they were in their own universes. I hope it happens.

It’s more than that. The DC films were also never important to WB. Batman films yes, Superman films sure, but DC universe films no. WB had Harry Potter, and still does. They made a killing in box office returns on those films. Now look at the timeline of when they came out? Marvel was ramping up. By the time we got to …

I think Marvel and DC should just make a definitive decision of which of their heroes are in shared universes and which are not and then let comic writers have fun creating worlds and stories for that hero or group of heroes. When you think about the number of ridiculously overpowered heroes supposedly sharing the…

Bras and panties were worn in ancient Greece, but not in Middle Ages Europe. However, this is neither, but a post-modern fantasy world where what the author says goes.

There’s 76 explanations as to why you’re in the minority right here: http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/the-wi…

No. This is not a sandbox game, despite of appearances. You don’t play a blank slate sociopathic hero, but Geralt of Rivia, who does not randomly murder civilians for fun, so neither will you. But you can be sure to find a lot of opportunities for violence, regardless.
