Hunt is great, but it’s not exactly a comparable experience to something like Tarkov or DMZ or the Division’s Dark Zone, in its time. There’s little to no emphasis on collecting loot in the match, except for what you take off dead players if you’re doing a budget run. Your entire goal is to get in, kill the boss (or…

“He’s talking about us, and we’re not making any money directly from it?  Shut.  It.  Down.”

It is so unbelievably short-sided, that it must have come down from the c-suite.

You guys are getting to the point where it seems like deliberate ignorance of what’s happening.

It says Scott Pilgrim on the package - no one enjoys having the old switcheroo on the main protagonist. That’s 101 stuff, guys

Aye get this list farted on

nae limmy means youse dunno what youse is talkin aboot

Exactly what I had been thinking. Ironic meatheads, big eyes, and over-gesticulated shouting? Just utterly offputting.

I get that I’m not the target audience for this stuff, but I’ve never seen a thumbnail promoting something I should “watch immediately” that seemed less appealing.

I think he meant it’s an uncanny valley in relation to the original look, not in relation to realistic humanoids.

A bit of a stretch of the definition, but I got what he meant.

Agreed. I recognize that as a straight man, maybe I am a bit ignorant to certain issues but I do try to educate myself whenever I have the opportunity. I do know that it’s important to have queer (and other) representation, but writing the main character as a straight teenager without the option to pursue a gay…

Its not just Social issues Japan seemed to be behind on when me and my wife went there in 2019. I’m white, she’s black, and good god the amount of staring, whispering, and outright hostility we encountered was staggering. We ended up cutting our trip short after one restaurant straight up refused to let us in.

When Ryuji asked the question, I fully expected my options to be limited exclusively to the women in the room, as that would reflect the original Persona 5’s extremely limited view of romance.

I haven’t played any of the Persona games, but I feel like “the main character isn’t gay” isn’t the same thing as homophobia. Like, I know it’s a role-playing game and he’s the main player character of the game and so ostensibly the role that you are getting to play, but just because you can make a lot of other…

Canceling them immediately was the right call by that manager. Pretty frustrating that so many people are willing screw over others so quickly.

The term “walking simulator” still seems grimly bogged down by a pejorative misinterpretation, so I use it carefully to describe Polish developer Starward Industry’s extraordinary recreation of this tale of planetary exploration, nanotechnology, and the human drive for survival.

He’s “reacting” to it like it’s some random tiktok video BS - as opposed to watching a mass genocide taking place. He is de-humanzing an atrocity against civilians, turning it into “entertainment” and being flippant about it.

He’s streaming his reaction to war footage which in turn, he gets paid for.

No, but we do need someone overseeing the production and usage of lightbulbs to ensure that they’re not fire or health hazards. Which they are if they’re not used, designed, or handled properly. And the Republican party sure as shit isn’t going to lift a finger to protect the public if they can’t use it as a cudgel to…

On one hand, not great that a damn Tom Cruise movie was necessary in order to get Biden more onboard with AI regulations.
