I will laugh hysterically if that happens. I’ve loved Helldivers ever since the first one - this is partly because it takes so many cues from Starship Troopers which I also love for its scathing view of heavy patriotism ultimately leading to fascism inclusive of many to all of the problems fascism entails.

The fact…

Challenge and accessibility I do not believe are equivalent things. They CAN correlate but when a developer wants to make something challenging that doesn’t make them abelist. The novel Ulysses is incredibly dense and difficult to read but that doesn’t make the author abelist because its prose is incomprehensible to…

As a fan of older RPGs there are some great FF style games in recent years I would recomend. Anything by Tokyo RPG factory has been great as was the recent Sea of Stars.

Otherwise I’m largley with you, I’m one of the few who likes FFXIII but I can’t stand XII and the MMOs were clearly not for me.  FXV was okay but had…

This is ultimately what made me quit the game. It just didn’t feel like there was a purpose to anything. The game just felt like watching a long visual novel until you hit a dungeon that you’d just fly through in 15-20 min then it’s back to hours of visual novel.

Aside from that I just didn’t feel a need to engage in…

I feel a bullet was dodged by this being cancelled.

Meanwhile, elsewhere on Kotaku

Only with less personality, at least Avengers wasn’t “just give everyone guns” as the way each hero played factored more into their unique hero identity rather than just “Captain america with a rifle”

I thought about this but the way characters exit and enter the narrative including player decisions would have made this very difficult to work with.

Though more importantly I’ll take this as a single player experience over the risk that making it co-op would have turned it into another live-service game ala Avengers.

Oh good, now I have all the time to focus on The Day Before without worrying about similar games /s

I think part of the problem with the people complaining about this is either;

1. As you stated they are white knights championing a cause that isn’t theirs and lacking the perspective to do so.

2. People who take the game out of context and treat these characters like they are their own persons. I think we would be…

I posted this elsewhere, but as a Chinese American I’m glad Mercy can wear this. I used to play Overwatch and mained Phara, Roadhog & Symmetra. I didn’t like Mei’s toolkit so I didn’t play her. But as Chinese I loved having Chinese skins available to my other characters so I could see myself represented in how I…

Exactly, I posted similar - I’m Chinese and I like to see the character I’m playing reflect that.  I don’t like Mei’s toolkit so I’m not going to just play her in order to reflect my ethnicity.  So I enjoy it when the characters I DO like playing can reflect my identity.

Have any of these people stopped to consider that maybe it’s not the character but the player that is wearing it? I don’t play Overwatch anymore but as a Chinese American I liked having all my characters (Pharah, Roadhog & Symmetra) wearing Chinese garb because I am in fact Chinese.  Should I only have to play Mei…

As has World of Warcraft and FFXIV for various mounts and/or cosmetics

Meanwhile Raiden from Mortal Kombat sits in the corner giving everyone the side-eye.

Both really but I have a number of clients whose “voicemailbox is full” or “has not been set up yet”

As an attorney the urgency one could be a problem for me and spam.  The number of urgent e-mails I need to send to clients or to emphasize the urgency of a matter is quite significant.

I’ve bought Square Enix Static Art statutes before and they’ve generally held up to reasonable scrutiny on their quality over your average anime statute in regards to detail and overall quality of the materials.

Not even just her, the policy would also put hostages and civilians at risk.
