Oh god, what I would give for more of this! Read more

I have my original Chrono Cross for the PS1, that I’ve had for at least 20 years. I fell in love with the original Chrono Trigger on SNES (and have the Super Famicom version, the PS1 version (Fianl Fantasy Chronicles) and the PC version), but weirdly never got into CC. I started playing it back when I got it, but I… Read more

This story is just a reminder that it’s best to think of this as Putin’s war, not Russia’s war. Because there are a lot of Russians (particularly the young) who don’t share Putin’s worldview.

Well with that attitude I’m just going to buy that game now even though I have a giant backlog because reviews are solid and I like me some RPG, jokes on you nice developer Read more

I was showing a friend the game when I was in Stormveil and explaining the rune thing on one of my many runes back and he pointed out the math was wrong on what I lost vs what I picked back up. We paid attention to it and sure enough I’d die with like 1500 and pick back up around 1200 or so. I thought my game was… Read more

I wish a lot of the Nintendo comics from the 90's were canon, the mario manga in particular had peach kicking everyone’s asses and is highly recommended.

OHMYGAWD, I AM SO SICK OF THIS TROPE! Read more

I can’t wait until FFV, the best game in the series (fight me), gets a similar treatment featuring Tony Exdeath.

Yeah, after playing the demo last night I thought it was the most ugly and hilariously cringe thing I’ve ever experienced (especially in regards to FF) and then I immediately pre-ordered it. I’m a trashy Final Fantasy fan, I guess?

There are more things companies can do to support the trans community here (working to hire more trans devs, and to make more inclusive hires all around, making sure the aren’t pay gaps, providing training and opportunities, providing inclusive game content, paying all of us more, providing good healthcare, providing… Read more

The child is who they are, regardless of medical intervention. Forcing parents to closet their children isn’t going to help anyone, least of all the child. Read more

Gender affirming healthcare doesn’t just include hrt and surgery. Puberty blockers only delay the onset of puberty changes, which can give teenagers the time to explore their identity without the onset of physical changes that cannot be reversed. Read more

I find it important to note, about these anti-trans bills: They aren’t simply against trans people / children. Read more

Super proud of Kotaku and the rest of the GMG sites for taking a stand and sticking to your guns. Your readers support you, and are invested in your success, don’t let management forget it!  Read more

Good going ya’ll. It’s supreme that it worked out. I caught the NY Times article last week about the strike (and the one involving them too). It’s wild to watch employee’s in stable (at least in my mind), non-manual labor fields, still have to fight for better. Not for more. Not because of greed. But, because they… Read more

Hell yeah. So happy that you all were able to get the contract you want, and showbthe strength of working together. All too often people ask “what does a union do for me?” This. This is what a union does. It stands up for all and helps elevate everyone. Read more

Absolutely inspiring work. My personal Kinja feed is my homepage at this point, but I stayed away during the strike, and it really reminded me of the impact you all have on my life each day. I happily donated to the GFM, and would happily do it again if you need to go on strike in the future. Here’s hoping that’s no… Read more

Congrats on the victory! Solidarity! Read more
