I wonder what the rules are for having former employees/coworkers as guests? It seems like Gerstmann almost never acknowledges the existence of people he used to work with, but the Nextlander guys seem to be able to interact with anyone they want, is there a corporate issue, or just the way these things seem to have gone over the years? Sometimes it seems like there should be more interaction between people who still seem to be friends, but I wonder what gets in the way?
Jeff addressed this a few days ago on his stream, I'm paraphrasing but he said he basically talks to no one but his wife and kids, and people on his discord, partly because he is bad at keeping up with people and partly because having 2 young kids + running a business is all-consuming.
a special forces guy flagging civilians in a cartel infested border town chasing a terrorist is certainly not a warm fuzzy moment but the pearl clutching and condemnation is really amazing to me, especially given the greater context is a 15 year long tom clancy wet dream. i'm beginning to see what people mean when they say media literacy is in the gutter.
that said the story in this one is pretty bad, maybe the worst they've done
The pearl-clutching is super weird to me. People show up looking for something to get offended by. This is an action movie video game. It's The Fast and Furious / Bad Boys 2.
What video games / media are y'all consuming? I'm sure I could draw some moral boundries around them too.
Bakalar & co. have done a great job with the new direction of the site. You all deserve lots of props. I'm excited for the future of the site in a way I haven't been in years.
Also Matt Rorie can never get enough praise about how great he is at his job.
