As someone who’s really into data analysis and social justice, I think something like this could be a useful tool... In the hands of a capable, diverse team lead by minorities, who understand that diversity is more than a sufficiently well-distributed demographic chart

Having rewatched Age of Ultron recently, I think you’re 100% wrong saying she was acting simply out of self-preservation. She was very clearly horrified at Ultron's plans and genuinely remorseful.

I think it’s incredibly reductive to say she was “always” a monster. She lived a life of incredible trauma, worked really hard to make up for her choices in Age of Ultron and learn to control her powers, and made an incredible sacrifice when she killed Vision.

The question is, why did Wanda need to be saddled with so much trauma? Why was she (like Natasha before her) refused the positive growth and resolution given to the male leads? Hawkeye lost his family, went on a years-long murder spree, had his best friend sacrifice herself, and then... he not only gets his family back…

The issue isn’t that her shift to villainy is illogical or poorly explained—the issue is that the writers decided to retread this path in the first place. Wanda being irreparably broken by her various traumas and then breaking the world around her is a tired and borderline misogynistic storyline. It’s the ultimate…

This happens in most esports. Esport leagues usually don’t apply patches in the middle of a season/split/tournament, because they don’t want players to need to learn new stuff, and also because they don’t want to risk introducing *new* problems. If they notice any exploits or bugs in the middle of a tournament, they…

Oh wow, you’re totally right! And just like that, my ADHD is gone!

That’s an amazing name, too

I know it’s not your fault, Eric, but I wish we got transcripts of these videos (or article versions) so I could actually engage with your content. I can't really watch videos, especially when there aren't playback speed options lol

That’s a bit of hyperbole for an unintended interaction with one environmental surface

I mean I have a launch joycon that hasn’t drifted at all. Anecdotal evidence isn't super useful. Andrew was just pointing out how hard it is to verify claims like “no drift ever" because drift is hard to predict.

I mean, this is an entirely new map that literally just exited alpha testing lol

Look, I’m sure he’s typical executive scum

They never officially said when the PvP will come out of beta. 

I mean, all the gameplay footage I saw looked like PS3 games at best. 

While that’s possible, there have been a lot of reports of Ubi giving poor support to its less well known studios, either by constantly changing demands or not giving enough material/staff support. I'm willing to better they didn't give enough support.

Can’t find a source on total sales, but it had the best launch month out of any game in the series:

I’m glad they’re holding onto Outriders. I think it has a lot of potential and nailed some important stuff (weapon mods, upgrade tree, world tier system, general gun feel). I just hope SE gives it enough attention/resources for it to succeed.

It’s a shame that the Indian studios lost their first big game. It’s rare for Ubi’s Asian studios to get top billing for *anything*, since they’re usually used as asset/side quest farms for games headed by other studios (Assassin’s Creed, Watch Dogs, etc). A big IP like this could have been a great way to get the…

Have their Japanese studios really underperformed?
