“...offered water by a stranger (the eponymous Maximus) who very clearly is weary of any and all strangers.”

“I have to wonder if it’s really feasible to police women’s thirst for male public figures—a tale as old as time in a world of boybands, chiseled professional athletes, and Timothée Chalamet.”

Polygon, PC Gamer, Destructoid...all adequate, but the old Kotaku was better. Hell, even Rock Paper Shotgun has been slowly getting worse. At least they re-hired Sin Vega after cutting her loose a year or so ago. She’s a gem. But the overall quality has been slipping across pretty much all the sites. The canary in the…
