It seems that all upcoming games are either set in dark futuristic dystopian hellscapes or brightly colored magical forests, and that there is no in between.

God of War got most of them. Elden Ring got the other big ones, the rest was just... “hey by the way, this game won this, congratz, now new trailer”

Now that you mention it, a little strange that there's no article listing the winners.

IMO something being annoying isn’t really “toxic”

Platforms. Why can't kotaku list platforms for newly announced games? Is it so much to ask that a game blog making game announcements mentions platforms? 

Are you suggesting that perhaps they’re just an adult who’s really small and baby-faced for their age?

So was there even awards that was given out, or was it nothing but trailers and a few props to some companies between?

Listen son, they gotta slide quota here :)

Zorro, Far Away From Alta California

Wonder if it involves the main character Dumping a MotherFucker Already because he doesn’t do oral before meeting the main love interest.

Wait, Dan Savage co-wrote this? 

I’m amused at the directional identifying of Sally Field and Jim Parsons in the header. They’re not exactly unknowns and easily confused with each other.

I mean , what was Turings Keith Richards impression like?

you guys promote stuff on the same level several times a day, shrug

Came here to say this, but I am in year two of being banished into the greys.  

We complain too much as a society.

I mean,  they did, so...

Quite possibly the greatest Special Forces team ever put on screen. 

The circus afro bit transcends all generational barriers.

You know what? Boss Baby is fine. Even the Netflix show is fine. My kids made their way through it while schools were shut down and somehow it didn’t make my brain melt (too much).
