I don’t know. I would certainly stop my boat if someone was firing shots close to my bowel...

Only a white person would believe that money protects black people from racism.

Excuse me, but fuck right off with that entitled crap, dude. They deserve considered criticism, and the reduced sales that come out of that, not being ‘savaged’. Personal harassment is never fucking justified—and certainly not as a response to a subpar entertainment product.

The issues WERE overblown; the game itself is still solid despite its massive flaws. Blame the team for this being their [basically] first game.

I’m pinning a note to the corkboard that has our state-required minimum wage poster thing and our reminder to wash our hands that reminds everyone that Tom doesn’t like this sort of thing.

I just restarted the game for a hard play through and the opening, where young Aloy is exploring the ‘cave’ is utterly heartbreaking when you understand exactly what happened. I mean the birthday scene...guh. I thought it was about a family splitting up because of divorce or some other normal reason, but...gawd…

I’m sure they’re devastated by the loss...

They’re not asking for simple inclusion, gay characters are already in there. They are sad that the options that are included are shorter, significantly less polished, and stereotypical next to the straight options, a reality that stings more when it comes from Bioware, a company that prides itself in being…

Nope. Not gonna happen.

Are you kidding me, though? Because my child is 13 and due to mental illness I’ve had to leave her alone with doctors and therapists quite a few times. Please do not assign the blame on this to anyone other than the person responsible - this fucking asshole of a man.

Sorry, NC. I still remember that time you flipped off tens of thousands of your customers just because ‘City of’ didn’t fit into your long term goals.

I remember how the ‘Sunset’ was handled, and that sorry, unsigned one paragraph ‘release’ that was your response to very public movement and outreach to keep the…

*shrug* NCSoft basically told tens of thousands of customers ‘tough luck’, even in the face of a movement and very public outreach to keep the game open.

Of course they don’t have to go out of their way to please anyone but their investors, but customers can also choose to not return to a business that slammed the…

Because you are obviously a jerkhacker who has GONE TO THE AMERICANS!!!

“I believe [the Salarians] are amphibians.”

“We need more women, just because” is the kind of straw man that lazy thinkers use when they want to convince people that they don’t have to do any intellectual work. It’s not “just because”, and it never has been. Women buy and play video games, and are participating significantly in the economic market for video…

I live in SC, so I hear the flag “heritage” bullshit all the fucking time. These yokels think it’s cool to be subtly racist, but guys like King mainstream it.

I wonder how many drones he crashed filming this video.

Dr. Venture, you scamp.
