Why are they making such a point to say that the loot boxes “are fun and enjoyable for people”? It’s not like that was ever part of this legal discussion. When I was in court for *allegedly* selling crack to 12 year olds I wasn’t all “but you know your honor, the kids really enjoy crack, it makes em feel good.”

Completely fine with it.  Its a single-player game.  Exploiting and playing games the “wrong” way has always been a part of video game culture.  As long as it doesnt ruin the game or fun for other people, its cool.  

Lets just all remember that he is a child and likely doesn’t have the perspective to understand how awful this is. And instead blame the scores of adults who still made it happen.

I’m not one for conspiracy theories that don’t involve lizard people draining the life force of goats, but I’m almost positive that Bethesda had plants in that audience. Cheering that loud for mobile games? Nope.

Huh, you said the exact same thing at AV Club. Just wanted to let you know.

I generally prefer female protagonists and relate to them better.

*To the tune of the Game of Thrones theme*

I heard they could afford to give everyone the planet a million dollars.

And how do you expect them to do that? Like a concrete solution, not “do something”.

If not liking a movie and expressing criticism is considered hate speech then I recommend avoiding the internet entirely. 

The love triangle was in the 90s cartoon. Along with some questionable voice acting.

By this criteria, Endgame should have done really well.

It’s a bit overreaching, but I wouldn’t miss any of these things. I’d still personally only ban things that have RNG rewards. I don’t even care that much about pay to win mechanics if you know exactly what you are buying. 

*internationally. :-(

It's called "news". It's silly to choose to interpret it as hate. 

What hate is in that headline? As the article says, their is a massive sale on at Epic and could potentially get a ton of people get their accounts blocked if they buy a certain number of games. It’s better to warn people about that issue with reporting like this.

Wait, hold up. Did you just refer to The Wandering Earth as a gem? I mean, yeah, taste is subjective, but... I don’t even know how to finish this sentence...

oooOOOHHHH MY GOD thank you. WHY DO WE KEEP LITIGATING THIS. It’s being willfully obtuse to not understand that she’s not saying “Oh noes, I can’t have children, I’m a monsterrrr!” She’s saying “Look at the things I willingly did, solely in order to make myself a more perfect murderer.”

Who wants nuance and actually paying attention to the text of a movie when you have an opportunity to complain about gender politics, though?

You and your context.
