Then find a way to be cheaper

Either get better or get replaced. That’s how business works.

Then it’s on the artists to be better than AI

To be fair, Pokémon is in desperate need of some competition. Not sure Palworld is the answer to that.

Then perhaps it should be discussed in that manner as opposed to immediate hatred?

You guys all burn up at the mere mention of AI

Because it’s distinct enough to not be confused for Pokémon

But now they care more about their agenda than reporting news and reviewing games fairly

A shame too. Kotaku used to be a trusted outlet for me.

This show had so little impact I don't even remember it

When I see Barney, I don't see a relatable character; I see a soulless husk who is constantly demanding me to feel joy and forcing toxic positivity on me when it's the last thing in the world I need BIG BIRD KNEW HOW TO FEEL SAD THAT'S ALL I'M SAYING

Black and white fallacy be like

I mostly dislike Barney because he's annoying as shit and incapable of expressing any emotion other than sheer elation, which comes off as non-authentic and creepy

PTSD FLASHBACKS

And that I liked because Bear is a tolerable character

A moral which I am well aware of, even as a kid. There is little need to ram it down my throat at every opportunity.

Annoy me with its stupid songs, preachy morals, and attempted to gaslight me into thinking school was fun

PBS WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR CREATING BARNEY AND THAT ALONE IS A CARDINAL SIN

You know what was good? Disney's Recess. Now THERE was a show that understood the reality of the public school system.

DW is the one accurate part. She's a monster of a sibling.

Now, I just want to get this off my chest. People really like to praise PBS, but as a kid I always thought they were kinda mid. Like, sure. The shows were entertaining enough, but they weren't truly authentic. They never took any risks. Arthur imo, is a great example. It had a good vibe, but it never truly portrayed the hell that was public school accurately. Most of the conflicts were inconsequential and resolved within a single episode.

As someone who is passionate about kids media, Humungous Entertainment really set the standard for kids games.

You’re lucky I know you well enough to detect this as sarcasm

It’s a wonder you didn’t. Nintendo’s been marketing the crap out of it.

You didn’t even get the name right. It’s Super Mario Bros Wonder.
