No you’re 100% right. I see an article like this and wonder why they’re working so hard to perpetuate the stereotype of the angry, immature, poorly-adjusted gamer.

Well, we have officially entered the “post-BotW” era of video game reviews, where every aspect of an adventure game is going to be torn apart if (a) the adventuring isn’t open enough, (b) the puzzles aren’t hard or creative enough, and (c) the emotion isn’t weighty enough.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that good players (James Harden, Tristan Thompson) are good players and bad players (Kris Humphries, Rashad McCants) are bad players.

At that point, Gianforte grabbed Jacobs by the neck with both hands and slammed him into the ground behind him.

The irony is that Linda McMahon is probably one of the most qualified people he’s appointed.

From the blog post announcing the PC release:

A turn-based tactics game with MOBA characters? It already exists. It’s called Atlas Reactor.

Joey Galloway and she have done a bunch of Ohio State games over the years—always thought they’ve been great.

Dude lived in Australia until he was two and then grew up in West Orange, NJ (median income $88K). He’s trying his best.

An anonymous author speaking generally on the topic of incest and abusive ships in fandom said that for them, it had to do with framing. When they tried to talk to their peers about the abuse they were suffering, their peers could only see it in terms of shipping, even when the author was talking about how the fights…

I’d argue that it’s a pretty good package for $20. The 2010 edition of NBA Jam was originally $50, which in retrospect seems insane.
