RTS games!
Hm, plenty of strategy in SC - at least if you class the match as the conflict's highest level I guess - watching professional matches you can see them at work (watched one guy recover and drastically switch his approach after being deceived by his opponent). Speed being a factor, well, I suppose that is ok. I like all RTS's myself, though they are sadly rare these days. Hopefully Grey Goo will be interesting to play, that's out later this year.

Verifying her police report is victim blaming, so I doubt they'd bother.

Didn't take that as diminishing the crime of rape, more of an insult to the response of the people caricatured in the comic.

That cartoon diminished rape ? Hm, interesting.

Strange, I always thought it was Nakamura, but it's no misspelling Nakimura isn't an existing Japanese surname. But yeah, probably too old. Yep, that was a point of contention for a GK LP'er I watched. Oversight at Sierra I guess and they just kept on with it. That LPer also bitched about Japanese people acting inaccurately in Dreamfall which is set in the future, so he has something up his back about Japan. Fair enough for age. She's probably my favourite female character in a game.

I find it offensive they left out Grace Nakimura. Also Dreamfall is the game, not the charactes, feh.

I am sure those are all oversexualized or just male characters in a female skin or something else.

http://www.marketplace.org/popoutplayer/55 Hale starts speaking about 50% of the way in. Predictable stuff, really.

Not the example that is the problem, though.

Would be nice to have some sources. Though I'd have a good laugh if it were true.

Of course. In the end though, suppose it doesn't matter in the face of their disdain. Game 'journalists' are now on the talking point of how hard it is for them and how hurt they are by accusations of being corrupt. One pointed out on Reddit that it'd require a bitter person to see a dev and a 'journalist' hanging out socially and then suspect corruption.

Well it has to be it, when presented with "The word "gamer" doesn't mean all gamers" at this point in the discussion. You and your lot can interpret it all you like, but that's a reference to all. Write out what you meant to say and avoid ambiguity. "Muslim extremists are a problem.." reads a lot different than "Muslims are a problem..", after all.

So, people taking the definition as it has been used for a long time and is the simplest interpretation is stupefying in the face of your concept of it referring to "refers to white males who refuse to recognise inclusivity and changes to the gaming industry". Interesting. Given that this nonsense started with Alexander (who's been bashing people as nerds...who does she think innovates the technology she uses, arts majors?), it's not unfair to take this as idiotic raging - is rather cute how these 'journalists' are a clique and rally together (funny insult about this mentioned them not leaving their "Twitter hug box"). One smart idea when writing things, is to write you mean and clearly. If they mean 'jerks online' then say that.

If only the English language had adjectives. It means a gaming enthusiast, simple, believe it always has done that, even though you and your kind would like to redefine it to suit this purpose. In any event, that's still crap - if it means white males, that means all white males are the bad guy then ?- What are you playing now?
Most fun build in D3 is the Palpatine one. Just lightning everywhere, almost feel like cackling as I use it, not caring that it's sub-optimal.- Drama in the indy gaming biz ?
Ah yes, the "1v1 me brah".- Drama in the indy gaming biz ?
Heh, Lees has been pretty amusing through out all this. Not too sure the idea that distrusting "journalists" like Walker or him (I suppose he considers himself one) means that you are automatically cool with psychos sending death threats is quite solid.- What are you playing now?
Bielefeld won the Euro Cup, 7-5 over Inter, any joy I have at that evaporates as I know the game let me win. Still playing Diablo 3 currently, rather addictive to hold out hope I'll get a legendary - got good luck as I manned up and took on T1. Also TLAD sucks, not much to do. Still think the core game was the best, TBoGT a close second. - Drama in the indy gaming biz ?
