I sung this entire list to the tune of that "Zendaya is Meechee" video

Kotaku's EIC. Beats: internet culture, gaming communities, fandom, Pokémon, and Nintendo. When not at a computer, typically boxing or reading.
Yeah, I can sort of understand with the tattoo mods, since they’d replace the skin texture (in most customization setups I’ve seen), but for skin to be connected to clothes/hair/etc mods is kind of a bizarre setup. Especially when the base game sounds like it has selectable skin tones and gear.
This seems like an unfortunate intersection of a community that lacks diversity and a mod/character creation system that is poorly implemented (there’s no reason tattoos shouldn’t be applied to a transparent texture that can be overlaid on any skin color).
No, you’re going to create a customization system in which assets are either validated by the modding pipeline to support all skin tones (by requiring a texture for each skintone, as an example of such an implementation) or that the customization system enforces asset data constraints that allow any asset to be used… Read more

The core real complaint is that SBMM makes it so that good people have to sweat every match. If you’re at a certain skill level in the game then any reasonable amount of SBMM means you’re gonna face 360 noscope gods almost every match.
Now, I’d argue 2 things against that. 1) Trials is the pinnacle end-game of PvP, so… Read more
I picked this up very early in Early Access, played for an hour or so, went “meh” and went on my way. Read more
Everything I read about this game makes it sound awesome. Can’t wait until it is ported to the Switch.
I have had my eyes intently on No More Heroes 3, Suda has had some shaky projects in the past decade (Killer is Dead, Shadows of the Damned) but I played Travis Strikes Again and it really felt like he was getting his strange and subversive mojo back working on that project.
And it has looked to me like NMH3 is a… Read more

You know, it’s probably just this:

You can get these shirts custom made in multiple styles on https://originalstitch.com/pokemon/pokemon_shirts . They even have the Kyogre print listed in this article.
I’m glad you mentioned the Tomb Raider nonsense because my exact first thought when I read the headline was “what, did it only sell 4 million units and thus Square considered it a flop?”
Honestly, I wouldn’t doubt it winding up being some creepy incel targeting her because she didn’t answer his equally creepy dm’s.
Agreed, having the extra utility to get our of a battle when your weak is far better than any healing item, or goal increasing item they could promote. they need to debuff it A LOT to get rid of it.
Probably, but also, good luck balancing the Eject Button. Riot wanted so badly for spells like promote to take hold (you can see it in Phreaks old Sivir champion spotlight video), but having the extra utility offered by a spell like Flash or the Eject Button is almost always going to take precedence since you can make… Read more
All the changes were made to battle items, not the held items that you have to buy and pay to upgrade. If and when they make changes to held items...that could inspire some players to spend money
Ah yes. Nerf Snorlax but buff Slowbro and Crustle even further even though one of them halfshots most of the opponents and the other is also pretty strong AND fast.
Kind of sounds like the music industry back in the day, with exploitation and unethical practices just being the unquestioned way business was done. People giving up songwriting credit to a producer just to get a single recorded, labels pushing a marketing blitz for a weak record all on the artist’s dime so they'll… Read more
