It’s important for creators and artists to be recognized, credited, and compensated for their work. At a point, though, copyright doesn’t become about the artists, copyright becomes about the corporations that “own” the art, and that’s when it becomes a problem.

I own a CRT television specifically to play retro games like SaGa Frontier. They look so WEIRD in HD. The graphics weren’t designed for that. This old lady’s keeping her scanlines.

Fellow healer here to say that this dungeon was the first and only time I’ve rage quit FF14, and it put me off playing dungeons for weeks. If it hadn’t been a story dungeon, I never would have gone back to it.

I went to a small private school in Virginia in high school, and our gym teacher was a hardcore scary Baptist. My friends and I were playing MtG in a study hall he proctored, and he took away our cards because they were of the devil. (He also thought I was a witch because I brought tarot cards to school, and while…

The last time I was at a gaming convention, I was flipping through a box of LPs at a booth on the dealer’s floor, and the proprietor caught my eye, leaned towards me, and said very seriously, “Don’t do it. Don’t get into collecting video game vinyl. I’m telling ya straight. Don’t do it.”

I’m borrowing an Apple device right the fuck now specifically to play this.

To be fair, there’s a hell of a lot to bitch about.

I feel almost guilty that I got my Venti in my second pull soon after the game released. And I don’t even really play any more...I wish I could send him to you. Amber is my favorite, and I’m aware that this is a controversial opinion, but she has a dancing bunny bomb that squeaks, and my argument rests there.

Oooooh, that makes sense, because after getting my ass handed to me a couple of time by a Rocket Leader, I got fed up with murdering my Pokemon, and now I just stick to the Grunts. Someday when I beat a leader, perhaps I too shall see a 12km egg.

Lots of vegan teasing in the comments, as per usual. I appreciate this breakdown of fish substitutes, thank you. I have a digestive disorder that makes it very difficult for me to digest animal fats, and the only animal product I can eat without horrible stomach cramps is eggs. I also can’t digest most soy products or…

Hold up, there’s 12km eggs? I’m level 36, playing since launch, and I have never seen a 12km egg. Is that like a special ticketed event item?

Maybe I’m just old, but I want used games for my WiiU and my 3DS. I was extremely disappointed to walk into my local GameStop this week for the first time in months only to discover that they’d ditched every bit of inventory that isn’t current and next gen. I get it, I suppose, and I’ll still preorder from them…

Not to mention the times you’re in a Serious Cutscene (TM), and the guy behind you is dressed like a fucking chocobo.

Me: I am going to do several constructive things after dinner this evening, including laund—
Kotaku: ACTUALLY how about you spend over an hour unable to tear yourself away from watching the entirety of the first act of Hamilton impeccably and laboriously recreated in Animal Crossing?

I think it’s best to think of Hamilton like one of Shakespeare’s history plays — as taking enormous liberties with timelines and biographical details in order to use the history as a framework from which to hang a narrative arc bolstered by linguistic gymnastics.

I’ve played Pacifist twice, despite the fact that I know I’m missing content, because the idea of a genocide run fills me with such guilt at the idea of harming a single one of those charming pixels.

Will all great Neptune’s ocean wash this blue

Dokapon Kingdom, my favorite party game that everyone else hates. It’s an unholy abomination, a combination of Mario Party, Monopoly, and Final Fantasy. Games take forever. One person often dominates the match early on. Unless you’re playing with a couple of NPCs, too, the game requires players to be capitalistic shith…
