I’ve never had a ton of interest in getting a tattoo but I have been telling myself for the last 10 or 15 years that I want to get a Triforce somewhere. Of course, I’m now almost 40 and pretty sure it’s just not gonna happen BUT my sister-in-law was showing me a newish tattoo recently and it rekindled the thought in… Read more

I have so many tattoos and only one video game one. It seems to be the hardest... genre(?) to choose/create designs for. Someday I’ll get more. Read more

Would be deeply amused by a game that actually makes vehicles as much of a hassle as they are in real life and presents public transit as an alternative. Read more

When a racist psychopath kills double digits of people in Germany, it’s a major event that shocks the entire nation and gets declared a terrorist attack. Read more

Stagger time for blood loss as well as unintentional stagger during buildup. It basically means bleed has lost a good amount of its ability to stunlock, which is a pretty big nerf and well-needed.

I’m being too lazy, let’s update this a bit.

hate Pringles? Looks like DK enjoys the hell out of them. Read more

I straight-up ignored the message and ran through the doors. I didn’t find the tutorial until about 15 hours later when I came back to open the locked fog gate and decided to check out that room some more. I think I’m so used to all the messages in the starting area of a Souls game being nonsense that my brain just… Read more

I love this type of baked in tut because you can totally skip it when doing a new build to save time. Really enjoying taking my time and avoiding spoilers for this amazing game. BTW Congrats on the big win! Glad to have Kotaku and it’s writers back! Read more

My favorite so far

some of the peope in this comment section either don’t know what spoilers are or don’t know how to avoid them. Read more

1. Is this the same writer who wrote both pieces? I’m legit asking because Kotaku is not a monolith and I don’t follow any particular writer enough to know if they are flip flopping on this particular issue.

The game was released about a year too early! It seems like they’ve just now caught up, and released a mostly functional game - if not one that still has significant content removed from what was initially promised. Read more

Honestly the most fun I ever had playing EVE was ignoring the roving gangs of SA posters and neo nazis in null/low sec, grabbing an alpha strike blaster fit destroyer, and suicide-bombing high-sec belt miners that refused to purchase ‘Mining Permits’ from me.

It was way less dense and impenetrable than most of the game. Read more

Inglorious Basterds works because it doesn’t pull punches or pretend it’s something it’s not, and it’s extremely self-aware. This game is the polar opposite, without any of the self-awareness. It’s crass and dumb, and it gets a lot wrong, even besides its clumsy handling of racism (and weirdly absent antisemitism).… Read more

I watched a Let’s Play and was turned off by the difficulty and the time limits, but I’ll give this game a try if it has an assist mode. Read more

Yeah....I have been paying attention to this since it was first rumored that Game Boy games would be part of the deal. After looking at the information on my Switch Lite last night (around 10PM EST, when it first appeared), all I can say is....nope. Read more

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

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). Read more

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
