I get comments like this a lot when the topic comes up and it always feels reductive. I actually want to take time to address it. The idea that people don’t play through the entire game is really absurd. In order to find tricks, runners and hunters have to play through the game as intended to understand mechanics and…

It really bothers me the way people get sucked into the meta-narrative of a games development.

Not only that but he straight up admits that

A YouTuber thought he could go toe-to-toe with actual journalists for a newspaper that’s won 39 Pulitzer Prizes, and, surprise surprise, has egg on his face for not verifying everything that his sources told him.

yes they are, by a boat load.

Oh piss off. This game is wonderful. Quit nitpicking and enjoy yourself for once.

oh man is this a real post

Is this post satire?

I went Liara and stayed faithful but damn was Garrus tempting. In Andromeda I miiiiiight already, before ever putting the game in the drive, be seriously considering the lady Turian with the Asari on the side because I’m a horrible space slut and shut up I’m the Pathfinder and this is just... Exploring...

This is really where I am sitting with the whole thing. He can clarify all he wants, but the fact is he demonstrated a lot of racist ideas. You can try and soften their impact but that is him just talking around what he said. He blatently said black people are more criminal across socioeconomic levels and when…

It really bums me out that this sort of response can get 50 favorites on kotaku.

If you’re a Zelda mark, that’s fine. But this is the article I just read: “BotW has all this stuff that other games do too, but is Zelda!”

Ding ding. Looks like our initial shot of out the “I’m offended” cannon has deflected right off of the “Research and Logic” shield.

Not quite. Other users do not see the words you type when the profanity filter catches them.

No, no. Clickbait is when an author puts out a question title even when they DO know the answer, because leaving information out of the headline will draw in more clicks. This can’t be clickbait because we literally do not have an answer. The point of this post has been to solicit answers. Have a nice day.

Clickbait? The headline promised exactly what the story delivered. People wanting to bang the new alien in the trailer. Get over yourself.

I’m the complete opposite, I say if the content fits then crass away. It’s not like Kotaku is the The New York Times or anything, they’re an internet blog that posts news and opinions about video-games.

Once you go Krogan, you never go back.
