That question was settled in the 90s.
Tell that to the IOC who refused to feature any shooters at the Esports Olympics because they're "too violent" - they even forced Fortnite to make a target shooting mode for its entry!

They already have MMR, though it's hidden currently. I think ranks are inevitable. Also, this is a MOBA - it's going to be toxic.
With no Brian Mitsoda and no Rik Schaffer I have a hard time seeing this ever being a true sequel, no matter how much extra dev time they get.
I was just commenting on the inanity of the advice and how divorced from reality it is. I assume people read the linked article and not just the OP text box.
The dev has a storied past^[1] of sexism and misogyny, so this shouldn't come as a surprise. The COVID stuff is amusing but unsurprising considering it's a Chinese studio.
Not sure, but to be on the safe side just don't title it "Black Myth Wukong is the most impactful global phenomenon to come out of China since the pandemic".
Welonz is one of the best Let's Players out there so you have good taste. I'll check out Kikoskia.
Tony Bloom did a line this summer and decided to go all in on Hurzeler it seems. You love to see it.
Would be a great feature, trying to follow ongoing discussion in a thread you've already visited is annoying currently.
Metacritic is not the good gauge for the original, given the circumstances of its release. The game was made on an alpha version of Source without any devkit as Valve were developing Source/HL2. Its development was also troubled, and ultimately pushed out the door before it was ready. It's a miracle the game even runs at all. Not only is the final third of the game notoriously lacking compared to the early parts, but the game is literally unplayable without the fan made unofficial patch. You run into a bug that hard locks your progression like 80% of the time and cannot finish the playthrough.
Despite all that it has become a true cult classic for its writing, dialogue and characters, its humour, impeccable atmosphere and fantastic sound track. It's been cited as one of the design inspirations for Cyberpunk 2077, among others.
These are the things the sequel will struggle living up to. The entire thing that got people excited about it was bringing back the original writer/lead designer and composer.
