There’s a statement in this article saying the Kickstarter hasn’t been cancelled, but only postponed. There’s a major contradiction between the headline and actual fact. No one else in the comments seems to notice that.

Actually, white suburban women were the largest # of voters (and the largest overall group) who voted Demo vs. Republican this election where previously they had not. Many of them did not like Hillary, and either opted to Vote Trump or not at all last election. But over the past four years, women in particular, have…

Stop playing.

True, and say what you want about religious/political figures, but at least there’s something there to follow. Most streamers bring absolutely nothing to the table except being smug and dismissive losers who are only funny to 11 year olds. Anytime I try out a big name streamer I’m left dumbfounded. The idea of…

It’s like a microcosm of MAGAtards. 

I’ll never understand these Twitch lemmings who are so willing to do all this shit because their favorite streamer - who couldn’t give less of as shit about them - gets into a spat with other streamers.

Agreed. I’ve seen a lot of posts bashing Rowling, but I’ve never actually seen something she posted that could be categorized as “hate speech”. It’s usually pretty basic points of criticism. People react as if she’s literally out in the streets riling up lynch mobs to round up trans people. Now, I havent gone out of…

So when are any of you going to boycott the thousands of other companies who actively donate to republican/conservative campaigns? The people that actually pass laws that determine the fate of trans people?

“She has an opinion. The way to undermine an opinion you don’t agree with is to point out, specifically, what is wrong with the underlying reasoning that the opinion is built on. See what experts have to say... and not just the ones spitting out of the soft sciences with a chip on their shoulders the size of Utah.”

Yes, but talking about trans people in a way that doesn’t perfectly align with the one and only (apparently) acceptable public view is not the same as “arguing whether certain human beings should have rights and be treated with decency”. Vaguely pointing out extraordinarily basic, well established and well subscribed…

yes she does have a right to her opinions. You don’t have to like it either. So go about your day and do something productive aside from bitching.

It’s called answering in a way that doesn’t disrupt business and I don’t know why anyone would expect anything different.

The one good thing about FarmVille was that it served as the dose of vaccine that immunized me against every other social Skinner box that has come since.

There was a point when I came to the realization I was planning life events around when I needed to harvest crops. I was finally able to break free of that and many other similar games and never looked back. I hope the remains of my farm burns to the ground with flash. lol

So the game is free? Or do I have to pay $60 for the privilege of paying extra money to get the stuff that’s already in the game? 

I always have, and always will love the original game (DA:O) the best, as I was born & raised on all ye olde Baldur’s gate/Planescape/Idewind Dale games of yore, and I LOVE the depth and difficulty(?) of the combat/spell mechanics. (Plus, you know, the characters were reasonably well-written, and the areas were pretty…

On the one hand, I get wanting to create a character who resembles you. On the other hand, some of the origins are kind of set in stone ethnically. You, except for the case of the Dalish elf, mage and Dwarf commoner, have parents. Having more choices would make sense when the lineage of the character is ambiguous, but…

I hate what Kotaku has become. “Let’s revisit this game and see how it holds up!” Then several paragraphs whining the characters aren’t black enough, then some whining that mods you installed didn’t work (why judge the game if you’re going to be modding it in the first place?). By the time it got to actually talking…

I hope they go back to a more Origins esque gameplay style, but giving the popularity of DA:I, I doubt that’ll happen.

Dragon Age lost me. Beat DA:O a woopin 10 times back in 2009 (one of my favorite games of all time), was disappointed by DA II and even more disappointed by DA:I which I didn’t even finish. DA II’s story was a bad clusterfuck and DA:I’s combat is so infuriating I’m channeling the salt just by thinking of it. How you…
