Oh c’mon, marketing =/= transparency. Nintendo should ABSOLUTELY be more transparent about working conditions and important things like that, but to twist a scaled-back marketing approach into a lack of transparency is ridiculous.

Jumping in late but I don’t think the disconnect is too bad, at least so far for me (I’m pretty early still though, enjoying that scenery). I understand where you’re coming from because it was a major issue I had with Red Dead Redemption 2, since I was trying to play “honorably” and my Arthur was clearly disillusioned…

My bad!

Sorry, I phrased that poorly. Wishing I wasn’t born is a byproduct of my depression. It’s not a result of other people’s comments/behavior (well, nothing specific). I just meant that a lot of anti-abortion people see me and other adopted people as “easy converts” because of arguments similar to the one made by…

Probably just me because I’m terrible at action/combat games but I’m a little nervous about the Blacksmith quest now. I’ve been very slowly making my way around and liberating some spots and mostly following birds and foxes, but I’ve found the stealth combat a lot less fulfilling than the last couple AC games, even…

I think that’s “The Other Side of Honor” from the list, but not positive.

I was adopted as an infant and have had to hear condescending sentiments like this my entire life from people like you who smugly think they’ve made some rhetorical checkmate here. I’ve spent the vast majority of my adult life wishing I had never been born. You can dismiss me as a meaningless minority to the…

You stupid motherfuckers should be deeply ashamed of yourselves. 

Fuck outta here with this ridiculous, condescending, pseudo-intellectual bullshit. SYSTEMIC racism requires power. Plain old racism just requires hate. 

Nothing says “I’m a tough guy who doesn’t take shit from anybody” like meekly clamming up when a PR guy cuts you off. 

I hope he does this. I hope he pours every dime he owns into it. You can feel free to do that, too. I’ll get some popcorn. 

Just want to break down your logic here:

You’re not totally wrong in your first sentence, but there is a degree of flexibility that cable doesn’t provide. I have my “core” services (Netflix, Prime, and HBO) and then pick up or drop the others depending on what’s available, deals, etc. It’s not perfect but it isn’t as inflexible as cable so I can pare down…

I’m pretty sure the Venn diagram between “rich Fortnite YouTubers” and “Occupy Wall Street” looks like nippleless boobs.

I’m 39, decidedly not edgy, and think TLJ is the third-best Star Wars movie and fourth-best Rian Johnson movie I’ve seen.

I think the ire directed at phone viewing is that it’s the greatest sacrifice of the theatrical experience compared with the other common ways to watch movies now (theater > big TV > computer monitor* > smartphone).

“John Doe admits he has punched several people in the face unprompted, but denies being violent.”

Lotta terrorism supporters in these comments, super cool folks. Keep living down to those gamer stereotypes.

As others have said, his reasons are given in the article and it has nothing to do with anything you’ve listed here. Pretty revolting to hop into a comment section about a bomb threat to a company and say “Fuck that company!” Even if that company has done really, really shitty things, terrorism is a pathetic response.

I don’t really see what’s so creative about hacking into a kids’ game to spam people with ugly gear and tactless political messages. It seems petty and stupid to me, so that’s the extent of the credit I’ll give them.
