Realistic lightsaber combat against large numbers of enemies using blasters would consist of taking a defensive stance at a reasonable distance and deflecting the blaster bolts. Soresu, Form III of lightsaber combat, is the most defensive form and was created because earlier forms of lightsaber combat like Makashi,…

I would agree with that but just the fact you categorize all discourse on the topic that way proves my point and how ridiculous you are yourself.

Right but disagreeing with the boycott gets you flamed. So sitting around and agreeing is fine. Disagreeing is equated to murder.

no its not, outrage and click bait is all these articles are written for.

Darth Vader is the emporer’s enforcer and entitled to special accommodation. Your average stormtrooper peon gets massed produced junk. that shit isnt blocking anything let alone a concentrated beam of energy capable of slicing through steel like butter.

Cowards, let me go full „Metal Gear Rising: Revengence“ on the enemies!

This is something that has always bothered me. Certain Star Wars games have included dismemberment, but most haven’t. It makes no sense for how lightsabers work. Glad they’re improving that at least a little bit for this game.

Still not as realistic as the Jedi knight 2 games. You can clearly see moments where his lightsaber makes full contact with flesh and either glances off, or passes through. It still does damage but doesn't dismember like it should. The thing that makes a lightsaber feel powerful is that if it hits flesh, it's going…

Hogwart’s will likely pull in GotY awards not to mention it has been selling very well. It is certainly at the top of the games list for 2023 so far.

Single staffing a retail store is dangerous and stupid. Especially when that single employee is there for nearly 12 hours. Good for her. Your life is worth more than a pittance from a company that doesn’t care about you in the slightest.

Wait, unpopular? It’s one of the top tier games, top 2 of the month in Metacritic. Your opinion is the popular one, Kotaku is just another mainstream media with an agenda that can’t allow themselves to disengage of the toxicity surrounding this subject. The game has nothing to do with JK but gladly most people have…

Discourse is discouraged. 

The trailer you posted for the Halo section is Halo Wars 2. Not Halo 2.

Though I think the multiplayer may have come later, I loved playing Untitled Goose Game with my partner. There is nothing more satisfying than that honking chaos doubled.

Plus he’s simping hard for Tanith.

If only 99% of the discussion around this wasn’t absolute brainworms awful shit.

Then you’re a sociopath, Girlfriend Games is incredibly wholesome and they were actively donating to The Trevor Project while streaming, the psychos that hijacked their streams and brought a woman to tears through bullying aren’t allies of anything or anyone, they’re using trans suffering as an excuse to be shit…

That’s a pretty myopic view of how game development works. If a developer makes a commercially successful game, that increases their leverage when negotiating for new projects and higher budgets. That means more job opportunities, more bonuses, more raises and more promotions. If a game is a commercial failure, its…

People understand that Rowling’s already been paid, right? That’s already baked in to the cost of development, so it’s not as though avoiding this game means “not paying Rowling.”

While I appreciate that the article is bringing awareness to some indie games, this whole article comes off as a guilt trip. Seriously, the author is saying that if you bought or even enjoy Hogwarts Legacy then your a shitty person. This is just adding to all the bullshit and ongoing witch-hunt of harassing…
