I...dont have a problem with this.  to forget history is to repeat history

Gaming communities will survive - thrive, even - without TikTok. Get a grip.

Wasn’t Kotaku part of the crowed calling TikTok Chinese spyware back when it first came out. Is that no longer the party line?

I mean Hitler was a monster, full stop, but I mean Autobahn, would likely not exist if not for Hitler, Volkswagen also likely wouldn’t exist as it does now. In no way defending Hitler, he is indefensible, but even a monster can have one or 2 not horrific ideas. And for a much take, Musk the douche canoe that he is,…

Hey, Anita Dunn said Mao was one of her favorite philosophers (despite murdering somewhere around 45 million people and enslaving tens of millions more) and that Mao was one of the political examples she turns to most for guidance. And she fell upwards from White House communications director to being a presidential se…

So uhhh... which is it? Did ChatGPT glitch out or something? The sub-head and then the opening line. Literally read back-to-back. Sloppy.

“After careful consideration, we’ve decided against Hitler quotes and instead will be using quotes from Mao Zedong.” -Austin St. John

But beyond saying she really was a star, they don’t comment upon the disgusting use of their dead friend’s likeness or in any way protest. Jessie’s appearance in all her splendor feels all for the benefit of the player’s enjoyment, but our main characters should find it ghoulish.

I’m not sure I agree or disagree strongly with your claim about the sequels outside of the fact that FF14's expansions may be an potent exception to it.

At first I did not like triple triad, but when it clicks, it becomes something very special.  Gwent was like that for me as well.  Hopefully Queen’s Blood can hit that sweet spot.

But does it have the Triple Triad music? Because if not I can’t see how it possibly could be better.

im not sure how any of this changes that. Glenn isnt special, Cloud still wasnt special until after the “fight” he had with Sephiroth in Nibelheim.

God this sucks, and is emblematic of the worst problems of the Compilation. Cloud being a rando who happened to be there when Sephiroth went crazy, as opposed to the ultimate warrior destined to take down Sephiroth, is absolutely crucial to his character.

Great start. Now can you use that phrase in a sentence? Seriously, it is getting so bad around here. Maybe we should let AI come for your jobs. Does anybody proofread anything in the Gawkerverse?

Good store managers dont work for Walmart. 

Put down the pitchfork, this is a story with fuck all for substance.

A good store manager would have the shelves filled when product comes in and the plan-o-grams properly set up. That way, “this clown” does not have to come in and stock the chocolate bars with his face on them. In any case, I’m pretty sure if the local Wal-Mart trespassed him for stocking his own goods, the corporate…

Helping people stock shelves, i.e. finding it and putting it out for them, is not “forcing” anyone to do anything. It is the exact opposite, i.e. doing their work for them so they aren’t compelled to do so because of their job.

PS5 is already showing it’s age hardware wise

Ps5s are selling two to none in my house, incidentally.
