"Kirby Air Riders is not deep; it's candy. Good thing I like candy." Read our full review of the Switch 2's new sugar rush of a racer:
Kirby Air Riders Review: A Shallow, Sweet Sugar Rush For Switch 2
The pink puffball's frenzied racer wears its shallowness on its sleeve

🚨 I reviewed KIRBY AIR RIDERS for Kotaku 🚨
Noise is not chaos! Quantity is not depth! Don't believe the siren song of the cult fanbase of the original!
Once you get past all that, Air Riders is an extremely fun game that's kinda hard to play for more than an hour at a time!

enjoying this my hero academia game!
I am becoming acquainted with ~manga~ so I recently read through the entire series and I really appreciate just being able to hear all the character's voices and slow down the plot a bit.
MHA got so visually noisy towards the end that this is super clutch lol

Do I have publishing/agent connections on here?
My wife is currently querying her first book (women's fiction with a literary slant) and is seeking representation. Get in my DMs if you want her to send you an email!
I have read it several times and the book is incredible! She will be scooped soon

A lot of melodrama over the importance of these platforms to the quality of our lives. It's pretty simple:
Do not give Discord your ID.
If you cannot live without Discord, that is a signal that something in your life is going unmet elsewhere.
Make Discord need you more than you need them.

Seeded within this incredibly bleak piece is the nefarious implication that romance novels are not books, but content. An indictment of the entire genre, really.
The fact that this author is just overwhelmingly pleased with plagiarism content is another topic entirely.

Local bar doing that dumb AI character trend and deleting every single comment criticizing their choice.

CRITICAL ERROR isn't about "what we played this week" or the latest press embargo.
It's a videogame podcast about HOW we talk about games.
Has anyone ever dumped all over your good time playing a multiplayer game by accusing you of the grave sin of just liking your friends?!
