They were following people around harassing them and using homophobic slurs. That you make a distinction because it ‘happened on the internet’ frankly demonstrates a lack of imagination on your part.

“You can call that evil but I think it’s just playful immaturity.”

That fact that this guy cannot - or chooses not to - make a simple distinction between hate crime and playful immaturity belies quite the lack of intelligence on his part. I’m sure he’ll go far in this world.

Lot of dumb responses to the tweet with the “hey welcome to video games” mentality, too. That this is a longstanding part of gaming culture doesn’t excuse it nor does it mean it should be allowed to continue. Screw these unoriginal unfunny and homophobic losers.

Ah, the good ole “It’s just a prank!” defense. Screw these guys, they’re giving gamers and even worse name than they already had.

Not to mention 99% of games from PS2 and earlier never got patched, and even in the PS3/360/Wii days games didn’t launch broke. These days if a game has a giant day one patch it’s a sign to wait until the early adopters finish the paid beta test and you can actually play the game all patched up.

As someone who has spent hours to exploit Odyssey, I can tell you this cute wiki link is another unfair comparison. These aren't game breaking glitches needing a patch. These are minor exploits found after collective thousands of hours of people like me. Odyssey was a finished game when it came out. All of you should…

Fallout’s world may be buggy, but it’s infinitely preferable to the world that you are trying to build, Matthew.

Cool. Next time you order food at a restaurant and they deliver a raw chunk of meat, remember that you’re okay with unfinished product.

You’re a fucking idiot. No Man’s Sky ONLY got fixed because the gaming press called them out on their shit. Final Fantasy ONLY got reborn because the gaming press and players called them out on their shit.

The article is mostly positive, noting what’s broken, but also noting that they are enjoying it. Should people not be aware of what they can and cannot expect from a game? If someone is wanting to lay down their money, should they not have some sense of what it is that they are getting, especially since it’s been over…

Lol MMO. 24 max players is not an MMO. Don’t liken this akin to the unknown environment of mid 2000s MMO development, where nobody knew anything. What an intellectually dishonest comparison.

And many of US are tired of $60 games that ship fucking *broke*. You know what never got patched? Super Mario Bros. Either you’re an entitled teen/twentysomething gamer with NO sense of history or you're a Xennial/Xer who has forgotten your roots.

Its official forum and subreddits are battlegrounds between those who have found something to love in the buggy online survival game and those who think Bethesda has taken the series off a cliff.

Fallout 76: Wasteland Recycled.

I think part of the problem with transferring a series that has traditionally relied on an SP experience into an MP environment (and especially a massive MP environment) is that something invariably gets lost in translation.

Sometimes, that’s not a bad thing; Final Fantasy XIV succeeds, in my mind, because it combines…

Trump will never go against the Saudis — but not because of the weapons we sell them nor because of their oil. Both Trump and Kushner/Ivanka rely upon Saudi money to be able to afford their debt payments for their properties. Without the Saudis — as well as Russians and Chinese — Trump would default on his debt…

This is the worst list ever. Previously, posthumous awards were given to people in three circumstances: they had been assassinated or otherwise died prematurely, thus likely would have received it had they lived (including MLK Jr., Harvey Milk and Arthur Ashe). Some had just died and the award came immediately…

Yeah, well you libtards forget that Obama likes mustard and was jovial enough with his Marine guards that he saluted with a coffee cup. And, for god’s sake, the tan suit!!!!

“Boy, you and your dead husband sure did fuck a lot, huh? Anyways, here’s a Presidential Medal of Freedom.”
