I'm gonna level with you guys

Bloodborne is my favorite anime because it's mostly free of dumb tropes, and yet it features a dude who has a fetish for dolls (but you know what, this works with the plot well, imma let it slide)

I also like Berserk but holy poo poo homie really loves his rape scenes and naked fairy bois

And this is all, from what I can gather, based on older styles of anime that were less blatantly pervy

anime has no chill

You sound like a man who has a basement people aren't allowed in

From what I understand madoka magica is a good deconstruction of the magical girl genre. The only anime I watched recently is jjba though.

I feel weird because Zelda is a more fun game but nier is so well put together in how everything interacts and means something that I feel like it deserves to be called one of the best games

It's like if we had a best directed Nier slam dunks that category

I'm really, really enjoying the resurgence in simulator / management games and I can only hope that this trend continues.

DS3 also had maybe the worst online since the two area covens didn't work and the game would heavily prioritize games where the host has a phantom already summoned. That plus the hornet ring instant kill means that every pvp fight was the exact same one people figured it out.

i had/have a character who lives in the belltower, wearing the butterfly poison aoe armor with powerstanced poisoned weapons and it was the most fun pvp ive had in any of the dark souls games rip

I was a fan of the desert sorceress outfit while powerstancing the toxic frog whips. I can only hope people enjoyed the extremely weird fights I brought them.

Cherry blossoms fall
Languidly onto stone paths;
Lo, spring has arrived

The hero arrives
Deep red with embroidered cap
Wahoo! Goes the man.

His pockets heavy
He asks the thread, who wants games?

I know no one will read all that, so the basic summary is that Valve has effectively cut Dota workshop revenue from 25% to 6%

TL;DR:
1. Workshop year is now entirely dominated by battle passes,
2. You have to agree to battle pass terms to sell your hats,
3. Battle pass money is no longer shared with workshop artists,
4. Only direct purchases of chests from the store are shared
5. artists making ~6x less than before,
6. no longer a worthwhile endeavor financially

It's especially sinister since the free chests that you get in battle passes can be sold on the market, which 100% of that money goes to Valve and not the artists.

SAN DIEGO, March 31, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mad Catz Interactive, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTC Pink:MCZAF) announced that, with the authorization and approval of its Board of Directors, it and its subsidiary, 1328158 Ontario Inc., made a voluntary assignment in bankruptcy on March 30, 2017, pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada). Pursuant to the assignment in bankruptcy, PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. (“PWC”) has been appointed as the trustee in bankruptcy of the Company’s estate. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Mad Catz, Inc., ceased operations and also has filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code to initiate an orderly liquidation of the assets of the Company. In addition, certain of the Company’s other subsidiaries have filed or will file for liquidation under comparable legislation in their countries of origin.

The Company also announced that all of the directors and officers of the Company have resigned effective as March 30, 2017.

As previously disclosed, the Company’s Board of Directors formed a special committee in 2016 to explore and evaluate strategic alternatives intended to maximize shareholder value, including a sale of the Company. The Company hired a financial advisor in connection with evaluating and pursuing strategic alternatives. The Company has been consistently pursuing its operational plan with the aim of increasing revenue and improving working capital.

The Board of Directors made the decision to have the Company make a voluntary assignment in bankruptcy after considering various strategic alternatives, the interest of various stakeholders of the Company as well as a number of other factors. The Board of Directors has been advised by the Company’s financial advisor and management that no viable strategic alternative in respect of a sale of the Company or other corporate sale transaction is being made available to the Company by any third party. In addition, the Board of Directors has also been advised that the Company’s lenders will not increase the amount of its credit facilities beyond the current levels.

Karen McGinnis, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated that, “Regrettably and notwithstanding that for a significant amount of time the Company has been actively pursuing its strategic alternatives, including various near term financing alternatives such as bank financing and equity infusions, as well as potential sales of certain assets of the Company or a sale of the Company in its entirety, the Company has been unable to find a satisfactory solution to its cash liquidity problems. The Board of Directors and management would like to acknowledge the outstanding efforts of the Company’s employees in support of its business, especially during the time that the Company faced financial difficulties. The Company would also like to thank the vendors and professional service providers who have supported the Company’s efforts during this time.”

Inquiries concerning the filings and proceedings should be directed to the attention of Fergal J. Rogers of PWC at the contact information noted below.
