*sigh* posting this is a mistake, because everyone on Kotaku is biased...

“People get tired of it.” If you think it’s exhausting caring about genocide imagine how exhausting it is having to justify your right to exist every waking moment of every day. If your biggest struggle is “people on internet are mean about me enjoying genocide simulator that gives money to people committing genocide”

So now Harry Potter is the designated safe space fandom for the unwashed un-woke. Even, apparently, the ones who never cared about the franchise before Rowling did her best to blow up her legacy.

Sigh...

Microsoft only had a net income of $72.7B for 2022, so I can see how they just couldn’t possibly afford to keep those people employed.

If they have $70 billion to spend on Activision, then they have $70 billion to spend on current employees.

I am sick and goddang tired of people posturing about politics with this tired ass “all politicians are bad” stance.

What do you think, McCarthy, can you give me a number crunch?

To be fair to Musk, “total re-write” is probably something he heard someone smart say about fixing software one time.

These are the rockstars that roll in, make changes, claim everything is amazing, and bounce (from company or project). Then it gets deployed and they can yell, “Worked when I left!”

Make roadmaps which show playable monster parts and expanded in-gut universes, “procedurally generated, yet hand-crafted”. Sell Meat Armors and Skinwagons (that

sounds like its for the best.  i’ve tried to work with auteurs like this dude.  it’s a nightmare for everyone.  they can’t give up even the slightest amount of control, make any sort of compromise, and have to have a direct hand in everything even if they have no idea what it means, how to do it, or what it entails. 

there will be no endorsed videogame adaptions of the Mystery Flesh Pit as long as I am alive.

Yeah, I’m sure the company is still bad. But probably not “force ten year old rape victims to have a baby” bad.

Someone at Activision-Blizzard grabbed a monkey’s paw and wished for something to distract from the bad press of Overwatch 2.

After each time she rejected him, he’d assure her that “one day it’ll happen” or “one day you’ll give in.”
