to add more to what megaBlastoise said there is three starting paths that are basically works for corporation ‘corpo’, street rat, and from out of town ‘nomad’. its also a joke on high expectations people set for them selfs in roleplay games, versus how they go. there are two other comics by nerf now for the other to…

The whole 1984 angle and having all of this response prepared in advance really put a sour taste in my mouth. Trying to create this weird public discourse and use your arguably easily-influenced fan base to try and get what you want is...I mean, it’s on brand but it’s really gross. The extremely public and…

Question - how do I give a star to Tony Hawk here without him replying to the article, this is beyond awesome!

For the last freakin’ time: That thing you keep calling your PS4 is your microwave.

same boat, I wish the arcade machines where playable

I suppose if I was doing any grinding in a game, it’s Animal Crossing and its many collectibles. I just fished up an ocean sunfish this morning, but I’m checking the shop everyday to try and get the arcade machines. I’ve got the mahjong one, but I want the fighting game version.

Another reminder that Jirard the Completionist has been using his Twitch streams to raise money for St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital, mostly through his replay of Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core. I’m not sure of the specific total, but I know he’s raised over $30,000 so far.

Yeah, that was basically my expectation as well. I saw a bunch of reactionary chuds suddenly posting clips of Steph out of context, and I knew there was something crappy going on, but I didn’t find quickly.

Should have figured it was just another pointless chapter in the Gamers Culture War!

I literally could not have said this better myself. In games where I have a choice (which are too few, but for all its other online flaws SSBU is definitely one worth mentioning as getting this part right), I will always pick a lobby where the host has disabled voice chat. If there aren’t any, I’ll create one. (Possibl…

When I first started playing Apex Legends, the ping system that made it so I didn’t have to use voice chat in order to communicate pertinent, relevant information felt downright revolutionary, because voice chat for the longest time has been the domain of every dipshit who thinks anonymity gives them the right to…

I knew something was up the second I saw the standard circus of reactionary youtube gamer chuds all targeting one single person with a laser focus. Like, that’s your immediate clue to know whatever “anger” going on is entirely performative and in bad faith.  

They found their target of the month—and a woman too, how…

things to note,
-it is from my understanding that the driver does not see the price the end user payed for he product
- the driver is payed by the app not the end user, likely covers listed purchase cost, gas, and a bit extra classified as payment
- the driver pays for the product through the app
- the end user pays the…

I feel like there’s a sentence or bit of info missing to help make sense out of this.

I’m enjoying this puzzle because even though I’m not a raider or a top tier player, I can still contribute by running through the Corridors and sending my puzzle code to a community spreadsheet.

It is always sad when someone young passes away in their sleep. When they are influential it is doubly so. For instance, Marilyn Monroe passed away in her sleep much too young. All we can do is not stigmatize things and do what we can to use kindness and support to prevent as many young people as possible from dying…

when most of your games are about war and conflict, of which is a large part in the discussion of POLICY, you don’t have a choice. By nature those games are POLITICAL. Game about Logistics? Tangent to Policy. Game about racing? Tangent to policy? Adventure RPG? filled with Policy? Simple puzzle game with colors? not…

“I don’t want politics in my games” just means “I want politics in my games to go unexamined”. And Kotick would certainly like that very much, especially considering the kind of politics his games are peddling.

“I don’t want politics in my games” is, in of itself, a political statement. If Kotick says he doesn’t want politics in the games Activision-Blizzard makes, consider why he doesn’t want you to think about policy in the games his corporation publishes.

The NRA is a terrorist organization. They’re fucking terrorists.
