    WoW tokens seem fine to me. It's like PLEX in EVE which was a good system. It's better than just deleting having a player economy from the game by having a worthless currency. I really don't get the FF14 affection. It's got shitty pvp, a shitty economy, the only thing it has are cutscenes...

    The 3 things actually wrong with WoW: 1) Overly complex slot-machine rotations, with too many action bar buttons. It's one thing to have a bunch of utility abilities filling your action bars, that's okay, but having to hit 14 different flashy light-up buttons just to do damage is retarded. If...

    WoW really started to suck after Ulduar when they started doing multiple difficulty versions of the same raid, and when they started doing flexible size raids. Ulduar was fucking perfect and remains the best raid ever; hard modes that were activated by doing specific things in the encounter...

    My guild on Gurubashi transferred to Dragonmaw to merge with Vulgar when we were both stuck on M'uru in TBC. Within 4 days of the guild merge, my raid leader, who went on to lead Vodka later on, passed around nudes of multiple girls active in Vulgar that one of the officers had given him. If...

    Given that she was wearing the t-shirt, I'd be way more ticked off by the "are you here with your boyfriend comment" than the penetration jokes. I feel like you get at least 1 or 2 penetration jokes for free if someone is wearing that shirt. That said, these are supposed to be professional...

    Star Trek: Prodigy

    You'd have to play with the canon a little bit time and date wise, but a serious show about the dangers of eugenics and genetic supremacy could totally work, but nobody makes serious shows, because serious shows would offend the Chinese.

    You're right, it's not worth ruining someone's life over. No one is really advocating for ruining any individuals' lives over the shit that happened at Blizzard. They're advocating holding the company accountable for creating an atmosphere where all this crazy behavior towards young women was...

    Yeah there's a few 360hz monitors, Asus, ACER, MSI and Dell. They're all 1080p and they're basically just used as CS:GO/Valorant monitors and nothing else.

    I've seen teachers unions protecting teachers who harassed multiple students over a decade. A lot of unions fucking suck. When we talk about game developers unionizing, it would not be like a public sector union or an unskilled workers union at all. It would be much more like SAG or the...

    Public sector unions, particularly the teachers and cops, have given all unions a bad name, along with some of those involved with federal contracts. Verizon has a pretty good union. The reason that you get a qualified in-house tech when you get FIOS installed in your house, instead of some...

    No, we're placing blame on the company. I don't really care who did what. In the end, boys will be boys. But it's on the company that allowed a culture of boys acting like boys at one big long party instead of men acting like men at work.

    It literally does not matter. Basically every real gaming system and production workstation is expressly exempt from this regulation. The only reason that Alienware can't be sold is on Dell, not on the state of California.

    We've been over this. 2014 was the second time around. The public has has short memories, yet these guys remembered the 2005 allegations fondly enough to make an in-joke meme about it, figuring the public would never come back around to caring about Cosby again.

    None have been. The lawsuit isn't against any individuals, it's against the corporation for allowing a culture of shittiness towards women to go on uncontested, over a very long period of time, and all the circumstantial evidence we've seen so far points in that direction. Civil cases only...
