There's not much else to say than what's already been said other than to believe women, always, and understand that men have to do more than just posture and actually make choices that call out unacceptable behavior within ourselves and our peers

As a newcomer and someone who occasionally writes about games, it's genuinely soul-crushing seeing someone like Jacob that I looked up to in the space do something so fucking despicable and cruel

I'm a huge fan of anything Fjallraven (not their more high-end Kanken stuff), super durable and I use mine all the time for everyday work sessions and also some hikes

I know Batomon Showdown is a good game bc on my fourth run after almost losing I managed to get a monster to 24,000 damage with +1 multicast that singlehandedly saved my ass

I know this might be the worst time to invest in a new PC but I can't help but think it will only get worse from here -- for gaming folks, what are the parts I should really invest in to future proof/get the best experience (GPU, RAM, SSD, etc.)?

if you're a game website laying off people before the biggest game launch of the decade you're bad at your job and you should be embarrassed that you just exposed that to a whole lot of people

Jack shares his thoughts on which studios should follow Game Freak's example and branch out from their usual IPs: gameobserver.com/opinion-five...

Five Game Studios That Should Be Let Loose From Their IP
Game developers are often sick with sequelitis, and more studios should branch out beyond their tried and true hits.

Up today at GameCritics.com, Jack Dunn reviews "The Remake Of The End Of The Greatest RPG Of All Time" -- and yes, it's literally called that. This most meta of games released in 2026 is also its most insightful and heartfelt. gamecritics.com/jack-dunn/th...

There's a staggering amount of systems in this game that have no bearing on anything at all, just a bunch of UI slop

I did also look at the press release and decided to buy Deltarune instead for a quarter of the price so I suppose that's my take
