Personally, I wouldn’t give AF if it was “fake”. Fake is perspective.

Krafton is paying out $3 for every $1 earned. They made a shit deal.

- Comment on 1 week ago:
Well it’s usually cheaper during early access. I got the game for $32, so you could just grab it and then wait for full release.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
I’m never usually an early access person, but Unknown Worlds has a proven track record. They’ve released two games from early access after a very open development period. Plus they fuck over Krafton if it sells well, so win win IMHO.
- Comment on Destiny 2 is dead: "active development" ends next month after one final update, but Bungie says the MMO will still be "playable" 1 week ago:
Yeah I own Destiny 2, but when I converted to Linux, I stopped playing it. It wasn’t good enough to dual boot for one game.

As someone who has lived in the Midwest most of my life, people absolutely walk around in shorts and T-shirts after the temp jumps post-winter.

30F in the American Midwest: Shorts and T-shirts
30F in the American South: 14 layers and they’ve cleared the grocery stores of all water bottles in panic
- Comment on What gaming console you owned disappointed you the most and why ? 2 weeks ago:
My Xbox 360 RRoD’ed on me twice.
It also had its disc drive die THE DAY I got Skyrim on release after waiting in line for it.
I spent the next several hours learning how to flash the firmware of a broken RRoD’ed Xbox 360 so that I could replace my drive with its parts.
It was simultaneously the best and worst console I ever owned:
Best because I have a lot of fond memories playing Halo 3 multiplayer, Skyrim, etc. with my friends in my college apartment we all shared.
Worst because it was an unreliable piece of shit.

- Comment on StarFox (N64 Remake) Gameplay Reveal 3 weeks ago:
Kind of. Game Freak isn’t a subsidiary of Nintendo, but they work VERY closely together to the point that Nintendo has a lot of say.
- Comment on StarFox (N64 Remake) Gameplay Reveal 3 weeks ago:
I mean…Zelda ToTK was basically “BotW, but better and with Garry’s Mod”.
Almost every Pokemon game has been the same formula, but with a few new things sprinkled in. Legends Arceus was one of the biggest departures in recent memory, but it was still a lot of the same, but 3D open world.
Mario Kart is 80% the same with maybe double carts, flying mechanics, etc. added in. This time they added a kinda sorta open world.
They change the formula a bit, but their innovation is usually leaving the base that works alone and adding a flavor packet.
- Comment on StarFox (N64 Remake) Gameplay Reveal 3 weeks ago:
Nintendo has had very few original ideas in a long time. They know they can just keep churning out remakes and sequels to their franchise library of Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Starfox, Pokemon, etc. and keep raking in the cash, so why change the formula?
People buy this shit, so there is no motivation to do anything else.

Yeah that checks out. Lol.

WTF is a “horse girl”? Umamusume? Is that some anime thing I’m not weeb enough to know?
I’m afraid to ask these questions because I feel like I’m always so disappointed in the answer.

They have other comics that specifically are about trans people and anti-LGBTQ+ messages. Top comment in this thread links to a few.
- Comment on puzzle rule 1 month ago:
Sorry wasn’t meaning you specifically. That’s why I said “we”.
- Comment on puzzle rule 1 month ago:
Stop promoting this person. They’re transphobic and anti-LGBTQ+.
I know…shocker given the extremely insane levels of horny drawings, but…

- Comment on Steam :: About the New York Attorney General lawsuit against Valve 2 months ago:
I love Valve, but I don’t think this one is going away and I don’t think it SHOULD go away. F2P games with RNG loot boxes are a scourge and I don’t play games that have them for that very reason.

- Comment on Valve Acknowledges Steam Deck Shortages Due To Global Memory and Storage Issues 3 months ago:
Same here. I have an AM4 board with a 5800X that cost $110 and a 9060XT I got for $10 above MSRP. I was complaining I couldn’t get it at MSRP back then, but now I’m not complaining anymore.
Something tells me I won’t be upgrading for a while.
- Comment on Star Wars: Galactic Racer - Gameplay Trailer 3 months ago:
I am very interested in this, but the fact they’re “slow rolling” actual pod racing is…an odd choice. Everybody universally liked Episode 1 Racer. Why are they not focusing primarily on pod racing, with other types of vehicles also there?
Seems weird that it’s the other way around and makes me think this is another Star Wars Squadrons, which is a game I was extremely excited about, but the controls sucked on and EA botched.
