Nope. Get tired of seeing this. Digimon and Pokemon have a single thing in common. There are a bunch of monsters. That’s literally it. Like seriously that’s all.

Nope it's definitely not doing too hot. No matter how many inflated metrics you shove in my face lol! The truth will keep rearing its ugly head lol.

The recent CG film about Nezha was super good. Maybe we can get a Nezha game sometime in the future.

It’s Nathan... he reports on extremely stupid shit most times. He has his moments of course, but he focuses on PC gaming communities, indie games and streamers and shit. All of his reporting is more based on those communities rather than actual deepdives and research. Cecilia for instance did an extremely revealing…

The thing is... “ninja” were just samurai and lower class people recruited as mercenaries for covert warfare. It’s weird that Jin’s own uncle, and people would condemn him for something they would by all means be fine with from a cultural and historical perspective. It IS romanticizing samurai in that it makes them…

This.

That’s my issue. While there is some nationalistic pride Japan has surrounding the “mythology” of the samurai (a Japanese immigrant in the early 1900's wrote a goofy novel called Bushido which embelished and mysticized samurai as a concept) most of Japanese history acknowledges that samurai were pricks, and samurai…

I really hate to break this to you but hagakure and bushido were written by two extremely nationalistic and racial supremicist Yamato Japanese folks. The whole “honor” schtick is bullshit... sort of. Like they did have an honor code... but uh I hate to break this to people they weren’t as “willing to die” as these…

I’m not a fan of them for the most part. Riley is a decent one though. Kotaku has always had this weird rotation of good and bad writers. I miss folks like Tim, Heather, Gita, and even Paul. Bashcraft is almost never on here anymore and he’s from waaaaaaaaay back. The new writers don’t really hit those philosophical,…

Fun fact: Katana didn’t exist during this time period. Instead they used extremely curved cavalry swords called Tachi. These swords contributed heavily to the shogunates armies being crushed as they were made for use on horse back and not on foot. Katana were created sort of because of this invasion.

You know. Something I see nobody talk about are a few things. One is that every feminine character is treated significantly worse than any of the “masculine” characters (that includes Ellie and Abby as they are depicted as masculine through the entire game) they almost always die are get brutally tortured or both.…

Okay look. I think allowing fan derivitives of games is fine. Like a fan-sequel is similar to a fan-fiction or like say... that Uncharted fan-film that got made.

The ACAB philosophy is an extremist one. I for one as somebody who studies philosophy don’t like it. I don’t really like extremism in any form.

(I’m a democratic socialist-with communist leanings, my personal ideology, and I believe everyone is entitled to their own as long as it’s not a hate-fueled one)

Extremism…

Disagree with one thing. The way they introduced him in this game was boring. Didn’t really feel like he was earned. They could’ve introduced him midway through this one and ended it the same way and would have had a stronger effect. Instead he’s just this malicious omnipresent villain that we have zero context for,…

Knowing Kamiya's propensity for jokes and slapstick regarding his super hero games, it probably is BS and will likely have a more chibi-fied style like Viewtiful Joe and Wonderful 101. I'm gonna place my money on the Ultraman type character being the Platinum internal mascot lol.

Exactly. You look at Digimon and they have a very unique style - more comic bookish design with dino's with pecs and bulging muscles. Digimon doesn't really do "cute" the same way either what with the cuter creature having a special eye design unique to digimon. Temtem does the opposite and tries to hard to have that…

Well first of all, just because The Boss is a decent character (of which I agree she’s one of my all time favorite female characters) it doesn’t change the fact that Kojima has some obvious psychological crutches that he relies on that show that he is indeed a bit misogynistic.

Maybe you can use a gamecube controller instead. I know it works on some games.

The build up to that point was really, really good. Then when it hits, you’re literally thrust into that John Travolta meme. After that point the entire story starts feeling like it’s spinning its wheels. None of the choices starting from that point onward feel like a cohesive story. Up until that point? Yeah. I feel…

The head and waist b+ are actually decent. Wexploit 2 on the head with decent slots, wexplot 1 with mostly good slots on the waist.
