Journalism and sexism in the games industry
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Gorth's topic in Way Off-Topic
Trust but verify. There is apparently video, so we should hold out for that. In addition, Kotaku has been knocked off the first page of Steam curators. It is a woman and it has been over funded. Of course it's misogynist and evil because that money should be going to Patreons of indie devs.- 641 replies

We don't think tacky shirts are equal to harassing over tacky shirts. Please, do show me that famed harrassment. I'm genuinely curious. You don't see how calling someone sexist for wearing a shirt is harassment? http://www.theverge.com/2014/11/13/7213819/your-bowling-shirt-is-holding-back-progress Because clearly, Matt Taylor's shirt is actively keeping women out of science. And the horrible misogynist who made the shirt: You can find her at https://twitter.com/ellypriZeMaN I suggest you let her know how horrible she is for keeping women out of science. EDIT: Thinking in it, perhaps "harassment" isn't the right word. I suppose the definition of it as "aggressive pressure or intimidation" applies, but it feels less direct and more like "unfounded criticism that is harsh". Anyone got a word for that?- 641 replies

The man was brought to tears. Over a shirt. Made for him by a friend. On what should have been the highlight of his career. The fact that you are ok with him being harassed and bullied says a lot about your ability to empathize.- 641 replies

Ahh yes, the real issue isn't how he was attacked and brought to tears over wearing a shirt crafted by a friend, it's that some people think attacking someone over a shirt is stupid.- 641 replies

If a female scientist wore a dress with images of a male character in sexy poses would anyone react differently if she would've received similar treatment to Dr. Taylor? If the answer is yes, you're a sexist. The most harm this shirt could do is assault the fashion sense of a vanilla person. If someone feels that a tacky shirt is keeping them out of STEM(and not the intense course work and study) then they probably won't be able to handle a job where they regularly interact with people.- 641 replies

I think T:TDW was troubled more by plot than performances. I have heard something similar, and would love to see Spidey in the MXU where he belongs, wouldn't be surprised if Sony took a payoff. And it's pretty much been the opinion of most I've encountered that Fantastic F@ckup would be a train wreck way before Doom Blogger. Although I'll admit I find Doom Blogger more funny than revolting.

Fantastic Chronicle sounds so bad I have to wonder if Disney is bribing Trank in hopes the film sucks so bad FOX hands the rights over to Marvel. Now if only Sony would sell Spidey film rights back so we can have a decent Spider-Man film. Anyways, I finally got around to watching Thor: The Dark World. Not bad, but bland and probably the weakest of phase 2.

So if there are robots in a sci-fi game it's a cliché? I think it's what you do with the tropes that make it cliche. DAO had some good points, but I feel that the ancient organization vs. ancient evil wasn't executed in a particularly original manner. I would've also liked more consequence for certain quests, specifically the mage circle, werewolves and elves, and the noble's possessed kid.
