Magic the Gathering is making a “Legally Distinct Wizard School” card set. Might be the closest you get excepting cheap mobile games. Not that WotC has a perfect or even recently good track record. I do like the new set a lot though with the Non-Binary character and non-white vikings.

Oh I'm right there with you. I was my severs first battle master and my guild was doing all the end game stuff there was until the long dryspell and the server collapses... Still with basically no new content.... Loved that game, wish there had been more to do, if not on launch, then by month 4....

I was in a raiding guild in WoW classic fr a bit before I quit due to the free hong stuff. But the guild I was in exploded because people wanted to be shitty racist trump supporters without consequence and one of the main Mods tried real hard to stop it. Turns out, the mostly inactive guild leader was also a shitty…

Weirdly Star Wars The Old Republic, also by bioware. It had a huge starting playerbase and collapsed, then went freemium and is still going strong.

“I want to be able to talk about Hilton’s experiences and my own without someone saying”

Maybe try other techniques for discussing these things than what-about-the-people-it-helped-isms then. Youre a therapist right? Then you have the ability to be self-reflective and alter how you discuss things in order to convey…

Eh, I’d put it at a low probability, but not highly improbable. The general shape of those cactuses is from an unused sprite from super mario lost levels. From that step it’s not hard to design around 90 degree angles not being as attractive as a 45 degree angles and a 68 degree angle.

Having worked in resort design, all this stuff is rendered super early. No one designs a prop without getting it past the money people. Not only do I guarantee this prop wasn’t improvised, it went through several revisions, has been shrunk in side from larger designs, and has been hollowed out for space, cost, and…

A lot of people do consider the two synonymous these days, but the big distinction I see on the message boards I frequent is about how someone loves, rather than who. A bisexual person by this distinction can love the same gender and other genders (homo and hetero, same and other) but love each differently ( more…

Not that I know of, and I spend a decent amount of time on Bi discussion boards. A lot of people do consider the two synonymous these days, but the big distinction I see is about how someone loves, rather than who. A bisexual person by this distinction can love the same gender and other genders (homo and hetero, same…

.... Am i the only one who noticed they missed every shot except for the rocket launcher shot? Why would you show that gameplay? Do they not even have bullet collision animated yet, or were the people making the trailer just that bad at shooting?

I sold my tesla stock right before it went crazy at the beginning of the pandemic, because i was worried about a market crash destroying the value. There was no way i could have predicted this, but i feel dumb as hell, and know if i were to buy back in, it would just plummet. How my luck works. 

Oh look, an obviously biased person using hyperbole about a biased person calmly pointing out a biased writer demonstrating their biases. Literally everyone has biases, its the first rule of Journalism. Its just important to recognize those biases when asking questions about why the content of a piece is included by…

Ian exhibits an overwhelmingly positive bias towards the smash community, regardless of its behavior, so thats why hes using the opportunity to try and link to their plight while talking about their faults.

Important to note though that you seem to be seeing just part of the equation then if thats all youre seeing. For every “It’s CDPR’s fault for cultivating a fanbase that would do such a thing” theres people on twitter calling Kotaku and Polygon “SJW Cucks” for daring to have anything but positive feelings about the…

Its not a review, its a impression piece or editorial. If it were a review it would have the Kotaku review block with the review summaries. As such the author is entitled to look at this game through whichever lens they chose.

Lot of fucking people coming out of the woodworks to comment and star comments on this one. Kotakuinaction must have gotten word that a trans writer “dare” bring their personal experience and feelings into their response to a videogame. The Venn diagram between CDPR diehard fanboys and Gamergate regulars continues to…

Seems like the linguistic gulf between the two is “ignorance” which doesn’t exactly score points for using blind. “No sight and ignorant” being thedefinition of blind does seem problematic. 

I mean, not wholey agreeing with his argument, I think you're actually making his point. Using blind as a synonym for "ignorant" is potentially the problem. 

As always Ian, your bias to defend a scene that doesn’t deserve defending is showing. These guys behind big house had the opportunity to still have their tournament. They absolutely could have just canceled melee and still played ultimate, or still had both but only broadcast ultimate. Obviously fewer people will want…

Probably a cheap why to make some money for the games division. Games development is expensive as shit, and the Khans probably saw making a game as a risk this early on. Two mobile games, one designed to be super cheap on development that apeals to older folks and can probably singlehandedly fund the other two games…
