On an average day, my friends might ask me how my work is going. I would smile, tell them, “It’s going to be great,” and then start a story about one of the weirdest things they’ve ever heard. And now I can give you the summary.
Spooky season is upon us, but longtime online gamers at Kotaku know that terrible things are happening in our space all the time. It’s not just the occasional horrifying games, it’s the way industry crushes people to dust, giant corporations increasingly find ways to put nails in the average consumer, and abuse. The use of power is not surprising.
Some of this year’s spookiest gaming news is sad. Some of them are funny. Others will make you want to pull your hair out because of the general state of the world. But hey, me too! Be scared and [some other unidentifiable emotion] together!
