Good for you working for a company so small that you have your personal assurances as to how everyone thinks, feels and behaves. You are an extremely privileged individual. (Who possibly works in a kiosk or toll booth.)

I appreciate the pith, but this is hugely overbroad. Calling everybody Nazi eventually takes all meaning from the word.

Many folks have the misfortune of working for truly terrible corporations. They’re doing jobs that have nothing to do with trash Riot culture. And they are most certainly not ‘just following orders’.

White person here: just hearing about this.

Looking forward to forgetting all about it over the next 3-5 minutes.

It’s a shame so many innocent people are affected, but powerful shitheads suffering consequences doesn’t happen enough.

“I’m truely [sic]”

Nailed it.

Don’t Bring Me Down

So the pod name is ironic?

I understand if this gets some kids excited for a few days. But there’s much bigger, more significant things to be bragging about. If one has these skills, there’s some seriously bad/important/valuable stuff that could be brought out to light.

Seems like a waste of hacking time and skill. There are so many other things that I’d rather see exposed than some game I’ll see eventually.

Isn’t it obvious it’s unimportant, tho? King of Kong wasn’t about anything important. We’ve only heard about Billy Mitchell for incredibly unimportant reasons from Day One.

15 years later, feels hack for a writer to spend any time on it/him and then have no more insight than, “Look how unimportant and stupid this…

“nothing else comes close to mattering as much as whether one guy did quite well at an arcade game. Nothing.”

I dunno. Feels a little cakeish.

“Look how stupid this thing is, about which I just wrote an article, that you should definitely read! It’s not worth our time!!”

“Another video from Twitch streamer Logan Samuels showed Madden 23 bugging out on a play celebration. Despite being downed after a catch, the game decided the play was still live, and the receiver went from dancing to scoring a touchdown while the defensive tackles went berserk to no effect.”

This is not quite what…

The real tragedy is they weren’t purchased for $10 million by Logan Paul.

“The thing everyone was responding to was what appeared to be a bleak lack of soul.”

That’s the Lord’s work. Take it up with Him.

“Unlike many of the projects that have foundered in the storm, we actually have a great game design that could stand on its own two feet.”

Empty, unprovable boasts for $1000, Alex? (not payable in crypto)

“I still think you’re a good player.”

And your contribution is just to repeat the same cliche my history teacher did 40 years ago. The communal spirit is better already.

“My TV probably costs more than you paid for your car, lol.”

Sounds like the Home Theater guy really found a mark. Lol.

You’re maybe in the vicinity of larger point about Kotaku, but you leapt passed the specific point being made here. Which puts you on the other end of the same spectrum of which you complain. (Blah, blah, blah. Don’t spoil my fake life fun with people’s RL hurt feelings.)  

It doesn’t make your comment any less tedious…

“Guillemot reiterated that despite these issues, the company is still aiming for over $400 million in operating profits this year.”

Whew. What a relief. Nearly half a billion is obviously nowhere near enough, but as long as it’s just this once.
