@imunbeatable80: Re: the writing, yes and no...? To me, the maturity didn't stick out as much to me in Persona, but that could just be because of the high school setting, where characters with a level...

The block-pushing gameplay is honestly slept on. I got into this after watching some EVO (yes, that EVO) sideroom multiplayer matches, and the multiplayer is really fun! Only downside to that is that,...

I love how this "debate" started around 2016 by right-wing fringe types, and 7 years later these same ridiculous claims are being parroted by ignorant concern trolls as the "mild" take because all the...

We can only speculate as to why they delayed, but if this was in reaction to the State of Play reception, I think Rocksteady made a big mistake. What people were reacting to wasn't polish, but the cor...

@cornfed40: Yep, and I'm not playing Atomic Heart, either. That's not quite the dilemma you think it is. I've only been publicly talking about Hogwarts Legacy because I actually feel confident discuss...

@andarthiel: Whinging about a perceived lack of social consciousness while still saying "the Ukraine" unironically in 2023 (chef's kiss)

@broshmosh: Thanks! Happy to save you the typing. :P Perversely, I enjoy figuring out the best way to articulate this stuff. One part physical inability to not take the bait, one part clarifying my th...

@av_gamer: Yep. This might surprise you, but I agree completely. Most people don't care very much, if they know at all. I have no illusion as to how little middle America or, for lack of a better word...

(shakes fist) "Why won't GB stand up to the horrible bullies of the --" (checks notes) "--Twitch-record-breaking, best-selling video game!? The handful of a tiny minority I didn't know existed until a...

Also, to break the streak of just responding to people I disagree with, let me put out something of value that has nothing to do with dunking on specific people in this thread.I work in game dev and w...

@efesell: LOL you stole the words out of my mouth. Bravo.

@shtinky: Very helpful, clearly in the spirit of the thread. 10/10.For everyone else, RF Kuang's Poppy War series and Babel (novel) are fantastic.If you want to hear great music you might not find oth...

@thepanzini: "Isn't Harry Potter bigger than JKR at this point" is like saying "Isn't Tesla bigger than Elon Musk at this point." Harry Potter is entirely her property. She takes a healthy chunk out o...

@grayfox666: This is probably the one you're thinking about. It was only on the main page for a day or so. It's an understandable mistake to make, because Jessie Earl has been pretty active on Twitter...

@ares42:It is a long, slow process. And from a certain vantage point, I can see that as a passive stance. But the unfortunate reality is that the only way progress is made is through minorities being ...

@tradee9691:Everyone thinks they're a good person, it's worthless for me to tell you if I am :PThere are plenty of people that support the trans community but also loved (or continue to love) Harry Po...

@tradee9691: If you genuinely want me to tell you why a dead guy is doing less harm here and now than a currently living, fabulously wealthy anti-trans activist working in coordination with conversion...

@tradee9691: I understand that post was pretty harsh. I actually don't take any issue with calling it "the movement" or anything like that. I took no issue with your grammar or the exact word you used...

@tradee9691: Wow, you're accepting of the movement. How gracious. Almost covers the fact you just called everyone involved a clout shark. How rude, dude. I know you won't believe me when I say this --...

@apewins: It's not an issue of "leads" to another holocaust. We're already in it. Just today, South Dakota passed a bill banning gender affirming care for transgender youth, and it's the second state ...
