“The photos were taken in San Francisco and appear to be referring to a right-wing disinformation campaign…”

Yup, she could easily fly in chartered jets where nobody would know where she was or fly in a jet that’s owned by a shell company. 

I don’t use Twitch and have never seen a single second of a Pokimane stream. That said, I am very aware that she’s got a pretty significant following of millions of people, and other gaming outlets are reporting on this as well.

Sooooo, that’s probably why.

You’re not sure why a gaming website would report on the retirement of a high profile gaming streamer?

It’s not the tedious stuff that turns off some people. Most games are very repetitive. It’s the lack of narrative and cinematic presentation that turns people off. Wrap that stuff around the tedious activities and suddenly your game becomes appealing to a broader audience.

All of these survival games are just Inane Chore List Simulators, and I do not even remotely understand the appeal.

It’s just the general lack of respect for gaming. As much as it pains me to defend gamers, who are often enough pretty awful (see gamergate, et al.), no one tells a kid to go out and get some fresh air if they are spending all their time indoors reading books.

Damn even the free unlock skins are being charged for now? It’s like all good-will NetherRealm builds with the game playing well gets killed by their dumbass decisions for the monetization side of the game. 

“We have tried everything but originality and it has all failed.” You’re talking to a website whose primary criticism was that Andromeda was just more of the same but lazier.

It should be noted that even though this is the disc version of the console, Spider-Man 2 is included in the form of a voucher. So if you were expecting the game to come on a disc as well, keep in mind that it does not.

I really hope it’s not Shepard in any form.

not to mention Liara basically mind melds with Shepherd right before the final battle on Earth, probably backed Shep up like Spock did to McCoy in Wrath of Khan.  

So right.  I wondered if they had misprinted.  I’m earning 5.25% in one of the few reasonable online high yield savings accounts.

I mean, if you really wanted to justify Shepherd existing in some sense six centuries later, there’s the fact that Shepherd already died once and she was retrofitted with considerable cybernetics to bring her back. Plus, in 2/3 of the viable endings she merges, in a sense, with the God-Computer.

Ugh please not another game like BOTW/TOTK. Open world is fine, but actually put a narrative in the game please. One where you don’t have to go hunting down puzzles to get major lore drops. Just tell a story though out the game and let the player wander. You know, like a lot of games do. Like oh say Spider-Man just…

Should be slapped across the face if you still have a savings account with one of the major firms only offering 0.5%.  Many, many places offering above 4% these days.  And there are ads for these all over the place.  No excuse for anyone ever remotely in touch.

Legitimately embarrassing that people don’t realize how much that image makes the opposite of the point y’all seem to think it does.

What a stupid comment. “Oh gee golly, how could corporations be responsible for anything when really, it’s just a group of individuals.” 

But this argument about giving up meat feels like a misdirection

There are so many other factors and problems with this. We use cow byproducts in tons of things. Not just leather. Cows also eat a huge amount of agricultural waste that can’t feed people. We’ve built this crazy circle, some based on actual need and some on propaganda, that just cutting out cattle would really screw…
