Is that Pathfinder?
I’m unclear why that graphic thinks 3.5 is boring and wooden.
Nah, that would be Roger Moore 2.0
Roger Moore is HeroQuest!
Also, I see there’s no 5th ED there. Any suggestions?
Which one is David Niven?
It doesn’t fit chronologically, but Pierce Brosnan is thematically best. More emphasis on actions and explosions.
In fact flashy and popular, while somewhat off putting to old hands seems about perfect.
Vic Ireland is my personal favorite indie game publisher train wreck.

I think arrendek’s referring to The Post Millennial. CBC’s still a fine news outlet.
You think right.
Saw this posted in the r/science subreddit

Despite a lack of research linking school shootings to video games, video games are frequently associated
with school shootings carried out by White perpetrators. Because there is a stereotypical association
between racial minorities and violent crime, it is possible that people often look toward video games as
a cause for school shootings committed by White perpetrators who do not fit this stereotype. Consistent
with this notion, Study 1 (n 169) found that participants who read a mock news story about a school
shooting were more likely to blame video games when the shooter was White than when the shooter was
Black. Study 2 examined 204,796 news stories of 204 mass shootings committed in the United States and
> found that, when a shooting occurred at a school, video games were 8.35 times more likely to be
> discussed when the shooter was White than when the shooter was Black.
Sorry I think the formatting is a little wonky.
I guess I come from an age when school shootings were blamed on bullying. The video game angle just leaves me scratching my head.
Video games are blamed because they can be. There’s no actual reason. It’s a total farce from start to finish, but the people doing the blaming are just trying to find something, anything to blame the shootings on other than guns.
It’s pretty telling though that the reasoning changes based on nothing but the color of someone’s skin.
Aside from Steve Urkel, Black kids can’t be nerds. (just to be clear, this is the thinking behind that rather surprising statistic)
Ah, Kotaku. Never change.

The story originally featured anime loli porn images.
The editor’s note is all sorts of understatement.
This story, part of our regular coverage of the intersection of sex and games, originally included screenshots from several porn parodies with a note that they were Not Safe For Work. We’ve since removed those images. While the intent of this article was to provide a snapshot of the kind of gaming and geek porn that’s out there now, it’s clear in retrospect that, in terms of the images and the analysis you expect from us, we made a mistake. Readers are understandably uncomfortable about these kinds of depictions of characters who are often depicted as or thought of as teenagers. I am, too and apologize. We can do better, and we will.
