You can currently swap anything you like while in combat.

I could see people swapping to a huge heavy armor set when they tank a hit, then switching to a high damage setup right after, which... sort of removes a lot of the skill of the game in the first place.

100% this. I’ve rarely, if ever, paid much attention to loadouts but dozens of times while playing Ghost, I’ve wanted that option. The outfits, sure, but the charms more than anything. It’s my only complaint with an otherwise perfect game.

One other complaint: when I honor an Inari Shrine and the fox is gone before I…

That’s not true. Especially with cell phones nowadays. 911 is actually pretty bad sometimes in identifying the number and location of the call.

He stole it from Alton Brown’s recipe.

Reading this, I just imagined Trump a la Monty Burns

“Osama and I are like peas in a pod, we’re both wealthy failsons and we both had drawn out campaigns to destroy America’s standing in the world. But mine worked, dammit!”

I mean, if so, this is the mindset that the poem is literally warning against. In which case I guess it would track that the OP thought the poem was dumb. 

Children were not gassed to death because they were communists...

The problem here isn’t that they’re making a game with a political message. It’s that they’re misappropriating a quote about the holocaust and using it as marketing material.  

Because that’s how the Nazis got into power started amassing power: by going after communists and socialists. They literally staged false flag operations to justify arresting socialists and thereby amass more power.

I’m sure there are references that could be made to get the intent across without appropriating a poem written about the Holocaust to sell your game that makes mouth noises towards social issues but only on a surface level.

“you're just jealous" is precisely the kind of argument a 17 year old reaches for

You won’t walk away feeling despondent about humanity. But there’s just a whole lot of needless plot-device death, including of children. It also takes itself soooo seriously. The main character, Aiden, is some extremely boring modern, cut-rate, techno-noir Batman figure whose only redeeming quality is a really,…

Here’s an idea...

Maybe not EVERYTHING needs to be a hero shooter or battle royale or even multiplayer. We have Overwatch, we have Fortnite, we have Apex Legends, and we have many, many, many, many, many, many, many, too goddamn many others of all kinds of shapes and sizes all competing for the same audience. That…

Wonderful article Hallie! It was an honor to be interviewed by you for this, and thank you for helping me share my story!

“Trump in particular is a dead man walking, will be out of office in January”

I’ll believe it in January.

If anybody truly wants him out of office, do not listen to the polls or pundits.  Go out and vote no matter what!

I await the flood of SQW’s (that’s Status Quo Warriors) angrily taking to Youtube to create a 3 hour video essay about how Twitch has joined Reddit in their quest for further censorship.

Some people started bravely speaking out about abuse they’ve experienced in the past and it’s empowered many, many others to come finally forward about similar experiences.

Ahem, Rowlet is 100% the best Alolan starter. No question

Can’t it be both? :)
