I’m sure 10s, no wait, dozens of “real gamers” will now decide to buy this title now that their precious anti-gay joke is still in there. Oh, man. They’ll be rolling in the dough now.

Entirely true, and it’s not even about attacking him. They love he said this shit, because they can use it to tar and feather all “leftists.” Never mind he’s just some loudmouth who 20 years ago wouldn’t have an audience larger than a college dorm community room.

Yeah. On the upside, Capcom seems to have its act together.

This article is best read while listening to the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme.

We were all overreacting, right?

Remember when we were all banging on about how Microsoft was trying to force a Kinect and an always-on internet connection into every Xbox One, and we were accused of being paranoid? Fun times.

I hope they gave you hazard pay for this one.

Man, Squall is going to be real disappointed when he finds out what happens to him at the end of disc one. He may just die of embarrassment!

I hear the WMD is the bomb!

All of this “violent video game” nonsense will come to an brumpt nonsense when some GOP staffer gets a call from a lobbyist who got a call from a bigger lobbyist who got an e-mail from Bobby Kotick telling him “Enough fun. Leave us be.”

Makoto’s the only bedtime dictator we need.

Ugh. I hate how shitty all this has become. It’s very, very hard for me to justify buying a game with an in-game store.

Hey all, remember when we were told that we were overreacting when Microsoft wanted mandatory Kinects and an always-online requirement in the Xbox One? It turns out we were wrong all along and we shouldn’t be so paranoid!  Boy, we sure look like dopes now!

So, reading between the lines, I’m guessing loot boxes are now so radioactive that publishers are on the verge of abandoning them and finding new ways to exploit whales. And this is a way to get a PR win out of it, by saying they’re enacting reforms at the request of their customers.

Here’s a friendly reminder — Call of Duty and other popular FPSes have business relationships with the gun manufacturers, who allow them to use likenesses of their guns in the games, often for marketing purposes.

Hey, all you “actually it’s about ethics” clowns! This here is your party, the one you helped push to power with your BS 4chan playbook, taking a huge dump on your hobby — the hobby that defines you. The “SJWs” you hate so much?  They’re not blaming your hobby today.

That’s correct, they did. I don’t agree with the premise of the article, but whatever. His opinion, his piece. But this is the review. For some people making the decision to buy this, it may be the only Kotaku piece they read.

You can love, hate or be indifferent to them, but no mention of the in-game store in the actual review of the game? Seems like a notable omission.

Yupppp.
