A physical release on the WiiU? At first I thought that was a typo. Why on earth are they releasing it there?

The world is actively a worse place because of these people.

It just reeks of defeatism. Call me an idealist I guess, but I haven’t accepted the inevitability of loot boxes.

And true to form, Bethesda let the players make something better out of their game rather than doing it themselves.

You found the one actual good thing about F:76

It’s really sad to me that the response to a lot of these comments is “well do you expect them to go away any time soon?” I mean, I get the framing of the article: loot boxes exist and aren’t going away, here’s how this Call of Duty game does it “better” than other CoDs.

But the issue is that for many players, the…

This is only true of people in the same job category. But honestly - how often is someone with 1 yr experience in a job better than someone with 5? It’s very rare. And if folks are super talented and management wants to keep them or pay them more- they can be promoted or moved to other positions.

Dude, it’s not that serious.

Hey man, I’m right there with you. On the other hand, it’s literally my job to make videos, and I am thus prohibited from giving away the entire hook of the video in the post :-O

No, fuck huge-ass corporations like Take Two and fuck their nickle-and-diming.

Take Two are a bunch of big greedy snobs. GTA online has some of the worst grinding and microtransactions this side of f2p mobile games. Is it so wrong that he wants to help posts circumvent that shitiness? Yes sure maybe he shouldn’t have charged for his program, but whatever. He complied with their request to take…

Except they aren’t, all pre-orders are being honoured.

Valve charge 30%, Epic charge 12%.

No way, the longer the better! 

This has to be the longest review in Kotaku history, and it’s glorious. 

“And I thought, wow, a cardiologist practicing in Manhattan knows about Kingdom Hearts. He told me he had a PS2 in medical school. He was probably my age. Oh god. I’m the same age as a cardiologist. He’s a cardiologist and I’m not.”
