This photo continues the tradition of models who, for some reason, pose with their mouths partly open. I have never understood this. Does it have a real world equivalent or is it something only models do? Is it supposed to be “hot”? confused? Out of breath?

Out of curiosity. In countries where there is mosaic censorship. What’s the most popular app for self-censorship?

I’d just like to say, Tim, you are my favorite person on Kotaku. You are keyed into exactly the kind of games I really like. I bought a switch 4 days ago as an early Christmas gift after watching your XC2 videos and once I come up for air this game is next on the shopping list. Appreciate your work and the personality…

Forgive my ignorance, but what is H*ckin’?

So you think it’s exploitative. Full stop.

No offense @username, but... it kind of sounds like you don’t like Overwatch maybe???

You’re using logic against someone who it seems just wants someone to agree with him/her.

Amen

It’s pretty challenging. The battle system is cool because your skill plays a part in it. I find it really rewarding as I get deeper in and feel like I’m getting better not just because I’ve leveled up in game but because I have learned how to use my abilities better. That said, carelessness can cost you, I have run…

December I think??

It took me so long to figure out that the game paused when you stood still. For hours I thought it was triggered by something in the battle, haha
