Gawker Media is at its best when we are proud of our successes, open about our mistakes and willing to debate stories in public. Pulling the post didn’t solve anything or hide it from existence.

I would have preferred, if anything, to have seen that article remain online, but surrounded with frank and lively debate by readers and staff.

The idea that you can have a fair and reasonable discourse on the same site that just took a literal shit on the entire topic is laughable. Most of these editorial staff fucks are seemingly turning this around and treating it as morally righteous to have fought to keep the story up. Like they in turn become the afflicted party and should also be the arbiters of the discussion. You lost the ability to take a reasoned stance the moment the story went up. Take the L and move on. No more clicks from this bullshit should come their way.

That boost was fucking insane. They should've been disqualified from that alone, not allowed to play it to it's breaking conclusion. </memories flooding back of rage at that>

But yeah, the drama on /r/globaloffensive is why I follow CS. I don't play it hardcore, but the GOTV replay function at least pulls me in compared to the shooters I do play not having them.

Its not an actual dissertation. Its someone who wrote all about the game's plot (since it's like the Souls games were not everything is explicitly laid out for the player). Its another case of Neiteio picking the most exaggerated word choice for something really mundane.

If someone took the time to write one of these for the average PS1 RPG, I'm sure they'd be just as long, if not even longer.
