Giving up on the GB video player seems to be the only solution. At this point I wish I could keep giving them money and have them unlock the Premium stuff so I can actually watch it. This is a shame.

1-Hey, did you hear about Ubithesda and Kotaku?

2-Yeah, crazy huh?

1-I mean I know things had been strained but I didn't know they'd been separated already?

2-I know right? I'll bet Kotaku has a pretty big hangover this morning, but we've all done it right? I usually don't put those angry posts up though, it just feels good to get it out and then delete it.

1-I know, it's pretty embarrassing.

2-Well sure, but Ubithesda's always been such a control freak. It can be so uncomfortable when they're having those arguments in public.

1-Yeah but Kotaku's such a gossip, it can't be easy to be with someone who constantly talks about your private stuff.

2-I kind of like to listen to those stories though. Sometimes they're so crazy.

1-But I totally get why they couldn't stay together, don't you?

2-Oh yeah, totally. I wouldn't put up with someone who did that to me either. But I'm still going to hang with both of them.

1-Obviously, I just hope Kotaku calms down and realizes how silly that outburst was. This is obviously the right thing for both of them. I think Ubithesda understood that it wasn't working out. They're so career focused and Kotaku is more of a free spirit, they always tell it the way they see it no matter the consequences. It's surprising they didn't see this coming.

2-Yeah, it's sad really. I think Kotaku thought what they were doing was fine, and they didn't care how much they were hurting Ubithesda. It means so much to them to tell those stories, especially when they find out something no one else knows.

1-But you can't have it both ways you know. What they want out of life is different, and now they can maybe be cordial to each other at parties and go their separate ways.

2-Yeah, that'll be easier if Kotaku's friends stop just saying what they want to hear. It's not helping.

1-Well you can't blame them, they go way back. They sort of have to say those things, especially since Kotaku's having this tantrum. Just for a while until things cool down.

2-It just makes them look entitled and childish.

1-Sure but they're so much fun to hang out with.

Don't buy new games.

I also feel negatively towards this news.

Seems like a good way to let the guys open up about stuff they might otherwise hold off on. They always do great work so I wouldn't care what they called it. This seems more like it's a distinction they need. It will allow them to feel right about covering something.

The only thing I wish they'd separate are the developer/publisher/publicist guided stuff, calling that a Quicklook:EX never seems a good solution. Quick looks are often about Jeff seeing 'grimy textures', Brad moaning about framerate or Vinnie noticing a flaw and breaking a game wide open. Quicklook:EX's are neat in their way, but you can't expect full honesty from the guys while the room is packed with people generous enough to come out to show their game.

Can't wait to see where they're going with this.

I'm so sorry. There's nothing to say. We love you guys. This hurts.

Thanks, this is good stuff. I'll be sticking to bots anyway to work up muscle memory, but this is a great first breakdown of simple strat.

Watching the DailyDOTA crew helps a lot too. I would never have considered this game otherwise.

no.

I find Matthew Rorie as obnoxious as hell. But I love Will to death making this an easy choice.

It was a rough thing to say, but you used it as a curse and not an attack. That doesn't make it OK, but you're the right age for that to have been a common thing to swear at video games when you we're young and stupid. I don't think any of the people who follow your work now think that was anything more than a moment of intense emotional associative swearing. You had the feeling you used to have as a kid, and responded without thought. It seemed as much a surprise to you as anyone.

You've explained and apologized, time for us all to move on.

Thanks for doing such a great job.
