Guy gets called out by low-grade site for not writing preview to their standards.

Guy gives them a ton of clicks and exposure by tweeting link to their site.


Makes no sense to me. Kotaku is to be ignored. He just made them more relevant.

Game publisher did a good job ignoring Kotaku.

I wish gaffer did the same when it comes to any articles from Kotaku. Archived version for maximum damage.

I would be concerned that Kotaku will gain traction as an activist counter-culture publication and their followers will eventually pressure publishers into not only inviting them to events again but feature them for their outstanding work as social activists. That's usually how this works regardless of whether these outrage-holics buy any product or not.

But what are their standards on Harry Potter porn?
Stopped clicking anything from the clowns after they allowed the digital child sex images. Criminal behaviour.

I can't wait for Kotaku's exclusive hands on of Goodbye Volcano High. Sorry, that should read I can wait.

The racism of Kotaku is so blatant.

Far Cry 5 was set in america but that was not “exotic” and “problematic” isn’t it?

Far Cry 5 was about religious zealots in the American mid-west:

Who then get nuked and replaced by:
Far%2BCry%2BNew%2BDawn%2BDeluxe%2BEdition%2BPC%2BGame%2BFree%2BDownload%2BFull%2BVersion%2B13.9GB.jpg


That's porn for Kotaku.

given far cry's track record,
(natives were evil in farcry 3, pagan min was by far the least awful of the 3 options in 4, and Joseph Smith was right in 5, plus, well all of blood dragon )
the communists will be the bad guys, and that trumps everything else
Oooooooh I forgot about the setting.

We'll never have a gay villain either, right?

These reeeeee morons... :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Haha, Kotaku. Stupid name and a stupid site that I haven't visited since I had a PS3.
This image sums up Kotaku in many, many ways.

Once again I'll pretend this is either some sarcastic meta commentary or satire. And maybe, just maybe, Kotaku has secretly been bought by The Onion and this is merely an elaborate ruse to fuck with our minds =0

They don't even do real reviews. It's just a yes or a no. If you've read their reviews in the past usually by a guy names Mike Fahey, it was pretty obvious they weren't even playing the games entirely.

I cry about SonyGaf from my chair in Redmond, WA
Far Cry 6 made waves back in May when narrative director Navid Khavari said the game was not intended to make a political statement about Cuba, despite being a game about revolutionary guerilla fighters in an island nation in the Caribbean where you apparently heal yourself by smoking a cigar.
If this were written unbiased about far cry 5:
Far Cry 5's narrative director Navid Khavari said the game was not intended to make a political statement about Trump, despite being a game about killing patriots illustrated as rednecks in an island nation in the states where you apparently kill right wings while hating everything that symbols nationalism.
Given the latest assassins creed as well, who on earth would think that Ubisofts games has some sort of political agenda.

the people who lived in an echo chamber and sees the world the very same way can't spot any bias in it.

Hell, they were made by a culturally diverse team of various races, genders, and sexual identities! Every Ubisoft game ever released has told me so! Fucking Kotaku.
