Probably, though it makes me twitch thinking about it. Read more

Morning works the best for me, thanks to my work schedule, but I wouldn’t rule out special streams at other times. Sorry you can’t catch them live! Read more

Same! Soon, soon. Read more

I didn’t have trouble with Maria, maybe three or four tries? The key to Maria was simply sticking close to her and dodging to her left. Read more

It’ll happen. If you need to know whether you should buy it, you should. Read more

Welcome to every day in video games. Read more

I wish I had as much power as you think I do. How come I don’t have Henry Hatsworth 2? Read more

I didn’t know Michael Pachter was a Kotaku commenter. Read more

It’s possible to have opinions about things that aren’t for you. Read more

Hmm, I don’t think you can transfer saves from one account to another. Read more
