I will admit I don't know the numbers. But I will say that I think any numbers we have are probably pretty inaccurate, as there are still many many people that are still in the closet about their orientation.

First of all, thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed response!

I think that's pretty uncommon in the games industry, especially when the games being made don't have a multiplayer component that is expected to be supported long-term.

I think that we might be misconstruing that particular phrase. I think what they meant is that by exclusion of gay romance, they weren't trying to convey the idea that they were against it. It just wasn't something they considered. I realize that's problematic in itself, and they certainly should be criticized for it,…

I don't think its a terrible response. A bit disappointing yes, but what they are ultimately getting at is that development on the game has stopped and the developers are likely already working on another project. It's really not easy to go back to a game that's already a year old (the game released April, 2013 in…

Missed opportunity!

Oh god, I read that as LGBTQ-In-App-Purchases.

Wait, are you an author for Kotaku now? It doesn't look like this was shared from TAY...

Thanks for the link to my article! I'll be writing more Dota 2 tutorials/misc nonsense.

Who loves Dota 2? Quid loves Dota 2. Is it true? MhHmmm, I do, I do, I do-oooo!

They sold a million copies of what is essentially a demo? I don't like the precedent this is going to set.

It applies to physical as well. On Amazon at least, they've dropped the prices of all those games to $29.99.

Not exactly a good memory, but it spoke to a time where I was more than a little obsessed with Pokemon Red. I had a Gameboy Pocket and my Mom bought me an AC adapter because she was tired of buying me batteries for it. However after a year or so of use, there was a problem with the cable. If you moved it, even a…

At the moment its the 3DS, but most of the time its the PC. Can't beat Steam!

There was John Romero before who was much more public, and we all saw how that turned out.

You should probably give everyone a heads up that MK7, SM3D Land, DKCR3D, New Leaf and NSMB2 are all going down to $29.99 from the 22nd.

According to this, they made $80 million on Dota 2 and $139 million on TF2 in 2013.

I believe that patents to the hardware expire at some point. At which point its fair game for anyone to clone the hardware spec.

It's with $12 shipping though (It's not sold directly by Amazon, Amazon is not selling Wii U's for some reason).

Bravely Default. I'm about halfway through Chapter 2 and enjoying my time with it quite a bit. Definitely one of the more enjoyable turn based battle systems I've come across. I've already almost finished rebuilding Norende though, which is a bit of a bummer I guess since I think I'm still pretty much in the beginning…
