We've been in the "oh, who cares if it accidentally gets a few people killed" era for some time, haven't we 😂

Hmm… I think the $80 tag would've been easier to swallow if Nintendo didn't have a long anticonsumerist track record: from taking down emulators, sabotaging legally owned consoles, killing fan tournaments, nonexistent or notoriously bad game sales, an extremely strict exclusivity policy, and no regional pricing to speak of.
Either way, fuck'em, emulators all the way, suckers 🤘 Go play whack-a-mole on Github.
Good games on super deep discount—$2 or less—because their replayability is nonexistent. Like, you can replay them to re-experience the atmosphere, but you have no in-game incentive to do so.
Even the secrets are easy to find, and at most will net you a second playthrough.
Hmm… I still have zero interest in this game series. They can do whatever they want, but I have zero interest in any western developer's take on Samurai.
It's like when Scorsese did Silence—it's nice he got to live his Kurosawa fantasy, but I have no interest in Eastern culture depicted through a Western lense, even if the source material is Eastern.
I wish they just go back to making Sly. I'd be all over an all new Sly game with fancy gadgets and shit.
Yo, Deltron, let's gooo! I love this album! I appreciate Cannibal Ox, El-P, and I specially love Non Phixion, but no one's done sci-fi hip-hop like Del.
Artix + OpenRC is my favorite. Lighting fast, low resources, and has everything I need.
I played like an hour and a half, and I don't hate it so far… too many cutscenes though.
Why you acting like I sent you this in a DM unprompted 😂 Move along, maybe?
I switched to OpenRC years ago and haven't looked back. Brief adjustment period, but smooth sailing from there onwards.
I know I'm gonna fucking hate this game, but I've also been in my gaming comfort zone for too long and I need to shake that off, so I picked up Death Stranding.
My main concerns are:
- Too much time navigating menus.
- Navigating terrain will feel boring AF.
- Too much time skipping cutscenes, or worse: unskippable cutscenes.
- Boring combat.
I'm gonna give the story a shot, but I'm fairly certain the totality will amount to pretentious Kojima bullshit, and I'm not gonna waste time hate watching it only to yell about it in my review.
What I'm looking forward to: Conan 😂 And I know it's a short cameo.
I feel like I'm going on a needlessly bizarre excursion given my knowledge about my gaming preferences and the gameplay in Death Stranding, but fuck it, maybe a drastic change will do me good.
What's this dude talking about?! Everyone knows no one hates React like people who code in React 😂 No one is gonna get pissed off watching this.
I didn't say it was? I said I have no interest in it.
You and Sucker Punch can do anything y'all want—I can only talk about my preferences.
Listen, I'm suffering through the drudgery that is Death Stranding's story RN, so last thing I need is for anyone to invoke Kojima in this context 😂 Someone please tell this dude "we don't understand how [insert made up technology] works" is not an excuse for shit writing 😂
