Stockholders don’t give a fuck about legacies.  Stockholders nowadays look about as far ahead as the next quarterly earnings report.

I think it’s one of those things that looks like something you’ve seen over and over again, so the trailer feels familiar and you’re prepared to be annoyed. But there are enough twists and self-aware genre subversions that it remains exciting, and the core of it all is actually a pretty heartwarming bit of…

Late 90s: Squaresoft nearly goes bankrupt due to a wildly ambitious CGI movie, merges with Enix to survive.
2024: Square Enix nearly goes bankrupt due to wildly illogical push into pyramid schemes, acquired by Epic purely so that Cloud and Sephiroth can be in Fortnite

Planets dying’, Cloud!

No.

I’m not. There’s usually a recency bias with these lists, and the prolonged early access period meant that the game’s full release in 2022 meant that it had lost some of its sheen. The people that make these lists had moved on from it and were playing newer games in 2022 that they hadn’t played before.

Seems he’ll be going to prison precisely because he has a hard time letting teenagers go.

Imagine being SO INSECURE that you blow up your whole criminal enterprise because you can’t let a comment from a teenager go?

That sounds as good as, if not better than, every NFT pitch I've heard so far. 

I watch this video and cannot believe how pathetic so many men are these days. No, these folks aren’t worthless, but so many frustrated men (and it is mostly men) see these outsized superficial male personas (in Trump, Elon, Kanye, Andrew Tate, Logan Paul, etc.) who have a lot of money/women/power and are easily lured…

What do you think is being done with the money if it isn’t going to the devs?

Good to know that all it takes for Logan Paul to redeem himself from the suicide forest thing is to....just keep being Logan Paul and change absolutely nothing.

I’m guessing the scale of those controversies feels different if you don’t regularly visit film websites. I don’t personally know anyone who gives a shit who’s playing the Little Mermaid, and it’s only a big deal to a smattering of Twitter weirdoes, emotionally stunted racists, and bored entertainment reporters who…

I didn’t know there was a Postal 3. 

Doesn’t that definition eliminate an awful lot of JRPGs in particular?

This may be the most baffling post I have ever seen. How is it more an RPG than Elden Ring? 

Will Kotaku return to “what are you playing this weekend?” and have it be Witcher 3... every... time...?

I kinda miss it.

I have been playing a lot of Grounded and while I understand that genres are pretty fluid to the point of almost being meaningless, I would never consider it an RPG.

Fans have been waiting for a true successor to Final Fantasy Tactics since 1997.
