Sliggoo kind of reminds me of Louise’s Kuchikopi after it went in the oven

The game seems rather confused about its tone, but I’m still tentatively excited. The combat looked great and hopefully the rest of it holds up as well; I’m praying the radio silence from THQ and the devs was a good thing.

Wow, he just went full-on Mike Pence with that “spending time with women” bit. Can’t wait for him to start calling his wife “mother.”

As an Overwatch fan, I’m hoping this means more resources can go towards OW2 and we might actually get a release date

Games with Gold being playable off-subscription is huge! Though maybe that just means the games are going to geteven worse lol

Super regretting getting the PS4 version now. It’s not a good enough game to bother sitting on the couch for, but would make a great pre-bedtime or podcast game.

WHEN DID ERIC START WRITING FOR KOTAKU

Zune was pretty cool, tbh. Meaningless, but a cool sounding name!

I think they’re trying to establish “Xbox Series” as the branding for their consoles. They want to make Xbox Microsoft’s brand for all gaming (Xbox Live, Game Pass, Xbox Game Bar in Windows, etc...) instead of being mostly associated with their consoles.

I get that they wanted to start the Xbox “Series,” with different letters in the future denoting different features... But did they really have to start with the exact same letters as the XB0 line? Especially when those two letters sound really similar? lol

I mean, I agree, but that doesn’t absolve them of responsibility. They’re one of the biggest development studios in the world, and they had the resources and time to do it right.

Yes, but discrimination against trans people has been rooted in the alleged disconnect between a person’s body and their gender. Portraying a female-passing or androgynous body with an enormous penis and little else (and other similar depictions) is specifically problematic towards trans people, in a way that doesn’t…

I agree that they pulled that character off well, but almost every other example of a Trans person in the game (that I’ve seen so far) is heavily sexualized with little else. There’re a few lore entries expanding on things,  but it’s still not proportionate.

I think you’re misunderstanding the argument a little bit, though that’s partially because the clip doesn’t go too deeply into theory of whiteness and stuff like that.

The problem is that the vast majority of Trans representation in the game is heavily sexualized and revolves around genitalia and other physical characteristics.

Glad I’m not the only one who had missing words lol

Mario 3D World is peak IDGAF-if-it-makes-sense Nintendo. They really took advantage of the enclosed levels by making them all so different, it’s definitely a successor to Galaxy 2 in that regard.

Agreed, paying full price is what really stopped me from getting MK8D and what will stop me from getting this. (Especially with MK8, where I paid for the game AND DLC on Wii U.) I’d even be more inclined if it was $50, but...

yeah that’s exactly what i said

I mean
