Well, I have no regrets for having owned a Wii U. Lots of fantastic first party releases, which is all I can ask for from a Nintendo console. And off-screen play has been a boon for my one-TV apartment, and I look forward to it continuing with the Switch.

As a teacher who works a half hour from Sandy Hook, I agree completely. If I ever encountered one of these “truthers,” I would just dissolve into a screaming mess.

I’m shocked how many people believe in ghosts. Basically every street in London (supposed haunted hotspot) has CC security cams running 24/7 and it’s caught 0 ghosts. Most businesses have the same and still nothing.

Well, Oneechanbara isn’t that popular in the West. Also, the fanservice elements of the main characters outfits (underwear/boa/cowboy hat and boots, and schoolgirl uniform) seem to be played up for comedic effect, to give an absurd feel to the game. For the most part it’s a comedy/action horror series, without much…

This would absolutely be true in the fantasy world where “don’t get triggered” isn’t used as a way to openly mock feminism, so-called “SJWs,” and the idea of trigger/content warnings. It’s not a hyperbolic way to introduce a surprise, the way “don’t have a heart attack” is. And there’s no concerted internet harassment…

It would not be, because it’s hardly common practice to use “don’t have a heart attack” as a way to make fun of people with heart disease. On the other hand, “prepare to be triggered” is a really common way to make fun of people who ask for or use trigger/content warnings. It’s a dog-whistle used to mock feminists and…

Plz, respect the ancient slave-owning militarists who kill slaves 4 fun and practice, dey fote against da bad Xerxes.

Every big patch makes me very possessive of ‘old’ dota, but this one really feels on another level.

Put about 10 hours into DOTA and LOL and just didn’t really care for either of them. I think their communities are really toxic and off putting for new players. I’m also just not a fan of the overhead view and playing on a kB/m for as long as those matches take. I’m not gonna sit here and pretend like Smite is a…

thanks for the comment

His cult loves it. Not that they care who fills each spot, they are delighting in the fact we are so upset with them. Payback, that is all. Their lives are so miserable, they want everyone else’s to be too.

Shit, Mike Ross better hope JWong has been slacking since CapCup or he is going to be the first Street Fighter player to get bodied in front of the president.

I think his point is that people don’t shit on the likes of Overwatch and Bloodborne nearly as much as on MOBAs.

I think China and Taiwan is a helpful analogy. The leadership on both sides see pragmatic benefits to keeping the conflict on as low a simmer as possible. But no one has forgotten. If I had to guess I’d say the game has some revenge for WWII comfort women extremists show up at some point, in the same way Clancy…
