Seriously. What the hell is this trash? This is a new low for Kotaku, and that’s saying a lot. 

too many of the Sims in the gallery are white, and say that players of color are generally speaking underserved by The Sims and its fanbase.

My comments are never approved by Gita so I doubt anyone will see this however there’s a few answers to this:

Be the change you want to see, I guess. If you’re a PoC and feel like you’re underrepresented in fan content, make some fan content that represents you. Thus you not only elevate the amount of content, but embolden other creators to follow suit. As far as the tools go, they’d be well off to officially petition…

Yep, doesn’t matter how you handle something, someone is always going to be offended.

This point, I think, is valid.

“Others say that they just don’t feel confident making Sims from races other than their own, either because they don’t want to mess it up and look disrespectful, or they’re afraid of retribution from other players if they do it wrong.”

The cultural appropriation crowd will come out. Who…

Sims Players Want More Diverse Options From Fan-Made Creations? uhhh so make your own?

I wish I could give you more stars!! Lmao! Hope this will do.

I haven’t made a list, but I think Andrew Wiggins is definitely outside the NBA’s top 50 players, and might be outside the top 100. It’s unclear at this point whether he is actually Good.

It’s almost as if the staff at gawker have never experienced a real job.

Renewing your vows should reserved for last ditch efforts to save your marriage, not pledging everlasting fealty to your employer. It’s just plain weird.

“It’s just plain weird.” Is it though? Or are confidentiality agreements between employers and employees, suppliers, consultants etc etc. an everyday part of just about every company on the planet? ‘Cause I’m pretty sure it’s the latter. It doesn’t strike me as weird at all that an employer would remind employees of…

Chairman of the Board, not CEO or a VP. Even if he has any say over production issues, it will be at the abstract level, not in the putting-cars-together level.

This is for Chairman of the Board not CEO.

“There is no microSD card slot, nor is there a headphone jack”

What kind of nonsense is this? Microsoft is actually a great publisher. I can’t think of any games that they publish that fit into your FUD criteria.

Why do you equate a buyout from MS = microtransactions. Please explain with previous example.
