As an older Final Fantasy player with two children and a job that has me working from 9 until whenever in the evening, with other games to play for work outside of work, 30-40 hours is a big ask.

There are PLENTY of very successful fully dressed female streamers on Twitch who have some combination of being good at video games or one game in particular, and being entertaining - which are the two most important indicators of whether or not a person will be successful on Twitch, period.

OK, no one is “asking for it” nor should that ever be an excuse for deplorable behavior. However, let’s also not stick our head in the sand and play dumb. Sex sells and, yeah, sometimes streamers are intentionally using that to gain viewers.

you know, i get you, but gamers share the blame here. they wanted to play mmos. mmos work by having dedicated teams that work on the game after it comes out with significant content, and those people need paid. gamers complained that sub fees were too much, so the companies looked for a way to have a revenue stream…

The thing I love about the grave conversations is that its actually following through on her earlier conversation about how to get around the Nora’s rule against outside contact.

For now it’s just test version. Devs wants to create perfect animation system. To my opinion, they will shoot new animations with women and add them in release.

Artists do it for themselves and the profit is a bonus. The term starving artist exists for a reason.

“Artists do it for themselves and the profit is a bonus. The term starving artist exists for a reason.”

“How dare artists expect to get paid for their work.”

Yes. So that other people can profit off of the labor of artists without having to pay them and then feel good about themselves for doing it.

The plotting itself in Act 2 was pointless. What Rian Johnson was trying to do (I’m not sure I totally agree with his decisions) was take the usual harebrained Star Wars convoluted Hail Mary hero plan and make it fail. And fail spectacularly.

Medal of Honor won the all-time award with the truly odious “Sniper Town” level. Snipers who were absolutely invisible, yet would hit you the instant that you stepped out from behind cover — and would keep hitting you until you died, the “ding” effect of the impact making the screen bounce so that you had no hope of…

Agree. It is easily the laziest way to increase difficulty.

I agree with you there. I always appreciated how Halo ai would start using tactics as the difficulty went up. I was led into an (unscripted) ambush more than once playing on legendary. However....

I’m okay with the one in BOTW for two reasons.

1) She is not sexualized (obvious)

Yeah, it also doesn’t help that Skyrim really suffers from the Bethesda problem of being as wide as an ocean but as deep as a puddle. I always revisit Skyrim thinking I’ll really dig into it but ultimately just get bored after an hour or less. That’s not a problem I really cared about before but nowadays it’s very…

I’m typically the type of person who would agree with sentiments related to medias misrepresentation/non-representation of minorities throughout history, especially as it impacts modern minority audiences. But this argument is sort of insane. If Cuphead is responsible to educate us about the racist past of these early…

These are the kind of articles that have made Kotaku a laughingstock among gamers. Although I suppose it’s emblematic of most of the websites that were under the Gawker banner. This is such a reach it’s absolutely ridiculous and I think anyone with common sense can see that.

No, it isn’t impossible. For you it is maybe, but not for me. If we weren’t able to sift the good parts out of history, we’d never be able to aesthetically enjoy anything old: just about all of it has some kind of dark history behind it. Enjoying those aesthetics on their artistic merit does not mean you’re ignoring…

To be honest. This is similar to the cylinder you have to air jump over in the tutorial.
