Journalism and sexism in the games industry
Orogun01 replied to LadyCrimson's topic in Way Off-Topic
The fact that he is writing about the company his girlfriend works at without disclosing it is pretty shady. Should be a red flag for coi to any editor worth their salt. If GG little moment on national media has shown something is that there are no longer editors worth their salt or are as rare as a cow. -

To be honest the articles are pretty neutral but yes, he should had disclosed the relationship. Although nowadays the safer thing would be to assume that if they're writing about someone they probably have a relationship with them even if it is just a very friendly professional relationship. My wrist hurts. -
Well damn you people and your interesting lives Made this today:

2.5 million stretch goal - Scrap the game and make a linear first person shooter with massive setpieces and an overabundance of QTEs instead. Keyrock I say this with the utmost respect; **** you and your joke. That **** gave the shivers.

Could I bother you for an archive link to some of those articles? The titles seem vague or negative and I can't really decide from that. -
Yes they could, but why would they? It's high enough to show they take it seriously, but low enough to make success very likely. Maybe if it goes way overboard and they run out of goals they will do something else.

You people never learned the joys of disintegrate. I made a multiclass warrior/mage and boy was it good. Just have haste and shield of protection on and hack all your problems away. @Kaine: I can't do pistols i'm a mage.

The **** do you mean irony PC *is* the master race. But yes I agree with you about Steam, their success nowadays relies more on their control of the content and their sales. -
You Sir! are a scallywag and no do gooder and I challenge you to a duel!

IDK. Arcanum setting always felt pretty boring to me. I don't know what the **** you guys are talking about, Arcanum had an excellent magic system and schools. Playing as a mage never felt so good and the story was great. Sure combat was bad and the leveling curve could have some tuning but these were really problems with the genre at the time and there are many similar complaints about other RPGs of the era.

Are they BW target audience? No; this venting is necessary, we need to show the totality of the insanity of SJWs for people that believe they have reached the bottom of it. Pro tip: it's a black hole.

So was nationalism until propaganda equated it with racism.

Yeah, the Versailles treaty and the end-game of the war is pretty much what you would have had to prevent And maybe do something to keep the Jews on the moral side of things http://www.rense.com/general29/why.htm -
You obviously haven been around many SJWs.

Hindsight is 20/20 but on the other hand I wonder how many countries sympathized with Germany after they had been economically wrecked by the Versailles treaty? The rise of nationalism and austere measures wouldn't have been indication of anything other than a reaction to the tough situation they had been placed in. It wasn't until Poland that things began to come into collision. -

To be fair any support for anti-gg will summon a wave of tweets and emails trying to prove you wrong and put any company you work for under some scrutiny or potentially on a Op against it. So far I haven't seen GG get anyone directly fired but they are also pretty reactionary when it comes to statements. -

So you're only active on these forums? It has been said even from the beginning stages of GG that they where a defensive paranoid bunch, it is a mixture of years of frustration at the state of the gaming industry couple with the growth of belligerent feminist elements that has lead to a large portion of GG being belligerent in turn. Since you're our resident SJW (don't stop that BTW we need dissent to have discussions) you might have been bearing a lot of burden coming from a Pro GG majority. Take it easy and summarize. They might also have been filled with nerdrage as your tone made it evident that you didn't care as much about the issue. I think the industry has needed change for years now and it is good to see that people are becoming more aware of it. It could have been on better terms but nothing in life is perfect, I also loathe SJWs (not you, the crazy ones( I keep telling you we need to come up with a better name for them although it might be easier to come up with a new name for you since you seem to be the odd man out)) and have nothing but contempt to what they are doing and have done to nerdom. They have brought their insane politics into everywhere and polarized the community. -

Good to know that the situation in it's not so grim, but I still think that massive immigration creates a big problem since there is no possible way to integrate that many people at an accelerated rate and it seems that they are just creating a bubble by depending on new immigrants to keep the economy afloat. Specially since every one has expenditures that in some cases outweigh the gains. Since we have so many Swedes here do they mind answering a few questions? Are feminist extremist a problem in Sweden? Are you still allowed to pee standing up, spread you legs on public transportation, criticize feminism, criticize immigrants......(bunch of other stuff related to SJWs out of control)? Is the reported rise in rapes related to feminism or immigration and have you observed (hopefully without personal damage) the effects of it? I only ask these questions cause the information I've been getting is beginning to paint Sweden as a crazy SJW Utopia gone horribly wrong. -

This is a reasonably safe assumption, given that gutlessness is the rule of the day in the West. I read this link and its very worrying But its also 4 years old, I know there have been attempts in parts of the UK to turn areas into some sort of " Sharia law zone " but these attempts have always been criticised and dismissed by UK authorities. So I doubt this article is really accurate ? http://dailycaller.com/2014/11/02/swedish-police-release-extensive-report-detailing-control-of-55-no-go-zones-by-muslim-criminal-gangs/ -
Now the important question is: Will there be waifus?

Unless I can put a stick on a baby and make a mace out of it on the sequel I don't buy the whole these are bad people bit. Demonicon made a better job of presenting and allowing for evil options than Blackguards and was a good game to play with maces. If it didn't have incestuous romance If it didn't take place in Dark Eye setting I'd rate it lower than Bound by Flame. The latter was a better game on its own. Really? Bound by Flame was a bit of a fizzle for me, it just failed to deliver in the end and the level design was far more linear than Of Orcs and Men and Mars War Logs both games which I enjoyed more. Whereas Demonomicon felt solid enough to give it a pass. On topic, I'm surprised the Codex didn't go crazy over the turn based combat in D:OS. Me thinks that they have gone into the Games Journalism business and become corrupt, I distinctively recall seeing a special thanks to the Codex on that game. Guess that's all it takes to be Codex No. 1 Huh? Most Codexians(that I've seen here) cream their pants at the very mention of turn-based, I would've been surprised f D:OS didn't get #1. I must be out of touch then.

I clearly stated the anti-GG side is also guilty of this...thats why I said this whole debate has just become toxic Great, tell the anti GG that they're being toxic and have them take responsibility for their harassers and hold their figureheads accountable when they mess up. You know damn well how toxic the SJWs where well before this, now they're getting some opposition which of course is going to escalate the situation. But there's an imperative to purge the toxic elements from gaming. -

I'm sure that the opposition is far more polite; bring back proof. -
