BYE FOREVER ARI AND EAT SHIT (i’ll still miss u 🖤)
i don’t like this reductive evaluation. a game’s worth can’t be determined by its price. that said splatoon 2's campaign - while more robust than what was in the og - is paltry at best and irrelevant at worst. u said u enjoyed the first one tho so imo that alone makes splatoon 2 worth it for u regardless of its cost.… Read more
that’d be so silly lol they’re totally different vibes
u know every time i’ve played splatoon 2 (splatwoon?) my connection had been pretty stable. there were a few error messages i encountered but multiplayer always held up. i missed the splatfest for splatoon 3 so i can’t say for sure whether nintendo’s addressed the game’s network issues but i do remember reading online… Read more
ngl the “lacks identity” bits were a little weird esp considering the amount of personality splatoon already has but i guess when u stand it next to previous entry splatoon 3 is more of the same. i don’t mind that. splatoon is my fav shooter but i would’ve liked some innovation instead of simply iteration
fahey’s blogged about it a few times but he suffered an aortic dissection that paralyzed him. he never recovered and passed due to health complication:

glad u appreciated the blog nominallybright. we wanted to make sure everyone who wanted to speak on mike could speak on mike and imo i think we turned out a v touching obit commemorating his legacy. mike meant a lot to a lotta us so ofc im so sorry for ur loss <3 here’s to healing
thank u eclectic-cyborg. i think mike would be smiling at this blog too <3
deadass. it was extremely frustrating seeing those comments when we were planning something like this all weekend long. like u said conker when someone dies u take the time to make sure u get the obit right
exactly. we wanted to do him justice and i think we did just that. im so sorry for ur loss rockin ray. i know mike fahey’s thinking of us all <3
to everyone wondering where our post was: this was it. it took a while assembling all the responses from current and former kotaku dot com staffers but all that time gave us the room to honor fahey in the best way we knew how. i didn’t get to work with him long but his personality and wit were infectious. im bummed… Read more
oh word? that’s good to know so thx for clarifying
whoa i missed this. so ur telling me someone beat all fromsoftware’s games without taking any damage? iirc we reported on someone doing that with all the dark souls games but i don’t remember seeing anything on all fromsoft games. tight thx for the sharing intell ! imma have to check this out
dammit this is good lol
deadass. i’d upvote this multiple times if i could
i’m sure it’s some sorta shooter. the industry can’t help itself. it loves shooting but even still like a commenter said a little up top the point of any trailer is to advertise / talk about what ur game actually is and that’s not what they did
them kid icarus games are fucking hard
yeah and i know slideshows suck too buuuuuut sometimes - like this time - they are appropriate. i wish we weren’t required to do them as often tho
only turned this into a slideshow bc i figured loading multiple tweets would hella suck and kinja’s kinda ass at taking a bunch of photos at one time
