Bahahhaha. This is totally individualized. First of all. And people don't change, second of all. You should never ever ever get online and preach again. You don't understand reality at all.
People are the exact same they were 1000 years ago, you fucking psycho. People don't change kid. Grow the fuck up and stop whining so much. Your life is your fault. You've been given opportunity most everyone from the past 20,000 years could only dream of. You're a loser and we didn't do it. We tried to help. You did it. You are that
No that was Deadspin, the 'sports' blog that barely ever actually covered sports and when they did they targeted a non-sportswatching audience. As opposed to Kotaku, a 'gaming' blog that barely ever actually covers games and when they do they target a non-gaymer audience. Easy to get them mixed up
tbh Depression Quest drama seems really lame in hindsight. All of it pre-GamerGate was just ZQ whining about wizardchan or how a pepsi guy offended her female sensibilities.
Saying it lead to Trump's election is dumb. Saying that it made a few intelligent/observant people realize the power of memes as propaganda for rallying a large demographic of disenfranchised young men to their causes... That is valid and fairly well documented.
Which is specifically what the list is about, not quality lmao but I bet they successfully farmed all the clicks they were looking for with this gay little article.
They also picked Mass Effect 3, in case you were thinking this list was anything besides "we shat out retarded hot takes for clicks, please link our article, please!"
I imagine the autists in KIA are currently working themselves up into a lather over Zoe being included at all though.
I'm sorry you're mad by virtue of posting in reddit's local safe space for terminally autistic rightoids mad about their titty games but I'm still gonna laugh at how all of you get triggered over obvious bait.
Bullshit you could definitely tell it was a rushed cash grab from the start! I am still salty that it didn't live up to expectations set by ME1. I unironically believe the best part of the game was the multiplayer.
Mass Effect was a narratively confused disaster for all of its sequels and thinking 3 was good until the ending is a classic sign that all you cared about was your space waifus.
I'm a huge fan of that novel and that's why I referred to all Mass Effect sequels as narratively confused disasters. Everything went off the rails when Mass Effect 2 tried to turn Trek-style "hard sci-fi" into Star Wars.
in only one comment, we've reached another new low of illiterate retardation. OP wrote "games of the decade". The article is titled:
"The Decade in 5 Games"
which is talking about the 2010s using games, not talking about games in the 2010s. Which you'd know if your undeveloped reddit-poisoned frontal cortex could read more than the title.
you see that weird string of symbols and runes at the bottom of my comment? Those are called words in the english language and they actually answer your question!
I understand why people like it because I myself put 100 hours in it, but it’s not a fun game, you just think you’re having fun. That’s my experience with it anyways.
Lol skyrim has hundreds of hours of content before even touching a radiant quest. Just because not every second of content isn't voiced over by some grey headed autistic boomer doesn't mean it's not good.
It's garbage, it's the videogame equivalent of eating plain bread for hours and hours, dull world with shit rpg mechanics, shit outdated jank game engine, worse than oblivion and morrowind etc.
I can understand Broken Age kinda, even though no one really cared about it, the trend of crowdfunding it's associated with was a feature of the decade.
Gamergaters are basically right about everything, at least if you can see in between the autistic screeching about there being SJW's hiding under every rock.
Sorta like how Tariq Nasheed is batshit crazy, but not entirely wrong with his hot takes.
Alex Jones too. The world is run by paedos who want to suck the joy out of everything for profit, they're just not literally demons. When you think about it, everyone is right about everything they just say it the wrong way.
Man what is with Drama, yesterday claims that an all women Fight Club was coming (its not) and now that kotaku is claiming these are the top games of the decade (they arent).
This isn’t a list of highlights. It’s not here to remind you of monumental shifts, or of astonishing lows, or wonderful surprises. Instead, its aim is to tell a story. One story, occurring alongside and intersecting with many. Again, it’s not the only one. But it’s one we shouldn’t forget.
Gay as shit but thats no reason to be retarded op.
You're enjoying a fine dinner in a good restaurant and suddenly two tards strat fighting with socks that have a steaming turd inside. They make sure to splash turd bits everywhere and now you can't enjoy your food and everyone is screaming and complaining and seething. And now you're forcer to go back to your place, take a shower, burn the clothes you were wearing and go to another restaurant, where, sadly, the tards will end up following you to.
Zoe Quinn is like Harry Potter: as a young child Harry was almost killed by Voldemort (Zoe's ex boyfriend), and then the Death Eaters (gamergaters) started harassing all the Hogwarts students (anti-gamergaters). As a Gryffindor, I am on the front lines defending against the evil Death Eaters. A Muggle like yourself could never understand.
Art magazines suddenly start writing articles about a new painting about depression, only it isn't really a painting in the traditional sense and doesn't hold up to any artistic scrutiny. It displays several signs of being created by a rudimentary artist; perspective, proportion and shading and poorly executed and it doesn't really pose any questions or provoke any interesting discussion. People who have experienced depression also say it doesn't accurately represent their experiences.
People are confused as to why it's receiving so much media attention.
One day, the ex-boyfriend of the "artist" writes a blog post ranting out how she cheated on him while they were in a relationship with Five Guys(tm) all of whom either have jobs within the art media industry or are otherwise members of a relatively new artist clique known as "The San Francisco Indie Scene".
An art appreciation website known as 4chan notices the links between the Five Guys she cucked her ex boyfriend with and the articles that were written about her painting. In doing so, numerous other conflicts of interest were found amongst other members of The Clique and the media. They also notice all members of this clique seem to share the same political ideology.
The media decides to rally together, smear the art connoisseurs of 4chan as "misogynists" and declare "art enthusiasts don't have to be your audience any more. Art enthusiasts are over."
The art connoisseurs form a group named "Artgate" to combat these perceived conflicts of interest and fight against the political ideology held by The Clique.
I'm glad someone remembers how gamergate actually started. Retards keep saying the zoepost was the cause. It wasn't, it was just an initiating event. GG would never have happened if not for the whole gamers are dead thing, from every outlet simultaneously.
I know for a fact that "Depression Quest" is not a game about locking yourself in your apartment and masturbating in between naps and therefore such a game is misleading horse shit.
lmao yeah two slapdash ass by-the-numbers adventure games are games of the decade, one of which was made by a company who went defunct because all of their games were so bad they went out of business.
This is quintessential Kotaku, covering video games in a way that blatantly shows that neither the author nor intended audience actually play video games.
Imagine thinking that anyone was ever afraid of gamergators. They've understood perfectly since the beginning of it that stirring up culture wars bullshit is what they're paid for. It's a lot easier and gives you better job security than actually writing about games.
Finally, there’s Persson himself. The developer made $2.5 billion in Microsoft’s purchase of Mojang, a sale that turned the heads of business reporters and signalled his exit from the wider community of games and game developers. His behavior in later years—mostly in the realm of misogynist attacks and transphobic statements from his Twitter account—slowly led to his ostracization from gaming’s most public spheres. Finally, in April, Microsoft declined to invite Persson to Minecraft’s tenth anniversary celebration, heretofore the most public effort to divorce Minecraft from the now-troublesome man who created it.
Maybe money soured Persson, maybe he was always this way. What he is now is an inconvenient truth, a living reminder that even in their moments of greatest success, the games industry is more likely to brush aside its most toxic elements rather than confront them.
They don't mention Notch's greatest crime against humanity, being an /r/drama moderator.
