That’s why, technically, this is not pedophilia (pedophilia means sexual attraction towards people who haven’t yet achieved maturity in the sexual/physical sense).

Passiflora is also usually your go-to location for all things intrigue-, politics- and espionage-related in the tabletop Witcher RPG. (There’s a great module dedicated to Novigrad and it has one of the most evocative descriptions of a high-end medieval brothel I’ve seen in an RPG.)

You know that the word “author” comes from the Latin auctoritas, which denoted - first and foremost - the absolute power the father of the family held over all its members? As such, you should consider this word inherently sexist...

Is it allowed (and not creepy at all) to have a favourite celebrity gaming couple? Because if so, Leigh and Quinns are definitely mine.

Have you seen him in Locke? There he sounds perfectly ordinarily - the whole mumbling thing is just a part of his most popular roles (Mad Max, Alfie Solomons etc.)

Geez, when did Kotaku writers get this petty? Mate, this guy just disagrees with the premise of your article - if you don’t have anything to say to him/her, just ignore her/him. Maybe it’s just me, but I’m used to writers knowing how to react to an (alleged) troll...

It’s an interesting point to make - is difficulty really about the player’s expectations rather than game design? - but ultimately I disagree. Going by that logic, the hardest part of Meatboy or N is the first really difficult level, the hardest part of Cuphead is the first boss etc. I understand that’s the moment

Well, as long as the whole premise is “I made this guy beat the hardest Battletoads level”, the question of whether it is in fact the hardest level is kinda important. Unless you think video games are not that important in general, but, well, we’re all geeks here, so I hope that’s not what you’re saying.

I guess there’s a bad IRA now.

Guys, sure, Trump’s hypocrisy and general douchebaggery needs to be pointed out constantly, and yeah, I know deadspin is a sports-themed blog thingy, but still - some of these articles (and comments below them) seem to be just about general fat-shaming. Way to make a progressive argument against a conservative

Alright, let the obligatory limerick contest begin.

I want a Venn diagram of things on that list and the W-S catalog.

You may have stumbled onto something important here actually. What if all those people really think that it’s “Shakira” law, and they just don’t like that kind of music? What if the only thing the progressives need to tell those people is that no one’s coming for their cheap country music? Think about it.

Many Nazis are pro-American. Many Americans are Nazi. People who marched with the German American Bund were fanatically pro-America.

(Lack of) intent is what differentiates murder from manslaughter (I killed him although I didn’t mean to); motive is what differentiates murder from *voluntary* manslaughter (I killed him, I wanted to kill him when I stabbed him in the neck ten times, but my actions were provoked by the heat of the moment). Some

Mate, you obviously don’t know much about the judicial system(s) in the West. Motive maters, context matters, it absolutely matters *why* you did what you did. That’s why you have things like “voluntary manslaughter” that are qualitatively different from murder, you have various degrees of murder, you have sentences

Yeah, that’s not even how the judicial system works (see, for instance, murder cases). I’m not saying their behaviour should be tolerated (although the commie inside me asks why would we, with all our global-centre privilege, have the right to judge), I’m just saying there’s no need to insult them. Sure, trace them,

Considering many of those selling gold in MMOs and such live in abject poverty and are just trying to make the ends meet and feed their families (I think Kotaku ran a piece about Brazilian gold farmers a couple months back?), you could probably do without the insults. I get your sentiment, I really do, but in this

So... you sided with Roche instead of Dijkstra and allowed Nilfgaard to win? You monster.

TBH, I can’t think of any ending that ends with a Nilfgaardian victory as the “best” one, so I went for the second-best deliberately.
