Devil May Cry 5 is NOT an enjoyable game!
https://www.resetera.com/threads/devil-may-cry-5-is-not-an-enjoyable-game.112311/

Nero is likable as well as Nico, however, the games is just bad.

The combat is horrible! I kept comparing it with Sonic.

? Getting an SSS is extremely hard, but not because the game is hard, but because it's broken! [/b]

I'm done with this game! I don't even feel like finishing it at all. I am in Chapter 15, but I hate it! I am not having fun at all!

This thread has now devolved into the ethics and process of games journalism.

I love it. You're all *checks notes* professionals.

See, there you go again with your assumptions. You have nothing that proves your statement yet you sit there and speak about the basics of journalism like you have authority to do so.

You edited your post to tone down the aggression? Weird.

The incoglikes can be undone. 

I edited in the cultured way of doing it.

I was talking about shosta's stealth edit.

[Pepinappe]

...It seems like the singer does, in fact, say the offending phrase.

If she's right, this is being pretty pedantic.

The issue is the use of a slur. Talking about LKD in this way is clouding that needlessly.

If she's wrong, you can talk about reactionary journalism.

This defensive reaction many seem to be adopting is premature and disconcerting.

Frankly, I find this information worth getting out sooner rather than later so that people who have a problem with it don't purchase the DLC.

She asked for comment, if she's wrong she can retract.

She didn’t put out “anything,” she published this story. If she’s wrong, she’ll be embarrassed and it will effect her credibility. If she’s right (and I believe she is), she acted swiftly to inform potential buyers of what they would be supporting by purchasing the DLC.

I know which of those two options I value more.

That Matt moderator is an idiot.

The stairs sequence is long (by design of course) and it also has some unfortunate dialogue in the original English translation.

No one is going to post that really dated dialogue in the stairs?

What... dated dialogue?

Tifa tells Barrett to stop acting like a retard and keep climbing.

I personally think it's hilarious, mostly due to the datedness of it, but also because it's so out of character for Tifa.

for the people wondering about the dialogue
(Image removed from quote.)

 

The stairs is one of the most famous dialogues in the game, why would you even want to skip it

Stairs were amazing, I urge everyone to take that route LOL.

Stairs are funnier

Taking the stairs is one of the best parts of FF7.

I'm not sure if isolation from your support network is the best idea.  And I assume they are joking about it.  Let me just post this interview tidbit from Zed himself. 

Bobcat Goldthwait was good friends with Robin Williams and when people ask him if they ever talked about suicide?

"We're comedians, we talked about suicide for 33 years.  Occasionally we'd talk about other things.  I'd say Hey, congrats on the Oscar."

"Oh thank you."

"So how would you do it?"

"Oh, car in the garage, definitely a car."

But Robin Williams did do the deed so I'm not sure my advice works.

[Transhuman]

It worked for 33 years though

Robin Williams killed himself because he had some form of neurodegenerative disease, so it's quite a different situation.

[Transhuman]

I'm sure the LBD didn't help, but family members always try to claim that their loved ones weren't in control of their faculties when they committ suicide. I suppose it's what they think they ought to say to avoid shame.

[nudemacusers]

I wonder if people who stopped saying the "n-word" when Emmett Till was murdered, or William Lewis Moore, or the Rev. Bruce Klunder or Andrew Goodman would have been called "Too Woke Tryhard SJWs" if they'd been murdered today where the risk was being Twitter ratioed (thanks to their actual sacrifices) instead of murdered during the civil rights movement.

Comparing the n word in the context of the sustained evil of anti black violence to peeps using the term chick flick.

Yeah that’s the angle.

[BisMarckie]

That stroke theory is getting more plausible each day.

[Don Rumata]

I'm sure the LBD didn't help, but family members always try to claim that their loved ones weren't in control of their faculties when they committ suicide. I suppose it's what they think they ought to say to avoid shame.

I guess i'm saying that i see suicide in bad cases of degenerative diseases (with no hope of a cure, and depending on the situation) as closer to a form of euthanasia, but when you're dealing with depression (especially self diagnosed, which can mean just a mild form of it, exacerbated by a bad environment) it's a very different beast.
From what i understand of Williams' situation, he was more in the former camp, rather than the latter.

I know I wouldn't want to ride it 'till the end, if i knew my mind was going to slowly but surely erode away day by day.

[Transhuman]

It's a subset of films marketed to women that are designed to be thematically simple and to not challenge the audience at all. The fact they still make chick flicks is far more offensive than the term 'chick flicks'

The few good ones like When Harry Met Sally and 10 Things I Hate About You were made to be enjoyed by both men and women

Not sure what Netflix was going at. Chick flicks exist. In fact that's what chicks call them and they're proud of it because those are 'their movies'.

So the unedited article is still up as-is and as originally posted on kotaku.

Her behavior on twitter is also really weird. Yesterday she posted a bunch of "I'm so sorry, I feel so bad about this right now" etc. but looking at her account now those seem to be gone again. Then she announced that she'll take a break from twitter only to return a couple of hours later to tweet that she caught a shiny pokemon

She was getting shit on in the Kotaku UK comments and called a racist.  That's a pretty quick bounceback- maybe somebody at Kotaku told her that her job is still safe.

I firmly believe deciding whether or not to committ suicide should always be your own choice and no-one else's.

The people robotically parroting that useless suicide hotline have zero understanding of how depression functions, especially if you're at the point of seriously considering suicide.  The OP is probably faking it for attention anyway like every other suicide thread on GAF/REE.
