I give you screenshots.

He also said harassment claims were “overblown,” that he has a “flirty” personality, and also that the woman Skiddler was sticking up for was wearing “a really, really, really revealing top,” which prompted him to comment on it.

A designer at Harebrained Schemes, the studio behind BattleTech, has resigned amid allegations of sexual harassment by six women, Waypoint reports. Tyler Carpenter was accused of repeated unwanted sexual advances and manipulation including in one case groping. “[F]rankly, everything is true,” he told the site.

I was a big fan of stardock and their “Gamer’s Bill of Rights.” And then they screwed the community. I continued to support them because of their past history, despite the changes, and bought “Elemental” in box form, hoping if enough people continued to support them, it would be worth it.

A lot of people will echo this sentiment, myself included. I hope that Ford and Reiche are able to regain control of their IP, but if they’re unable to, I’ll gladly still purchase Stellar Dominion: Ghosts of the Precursors.

I can’t even be in the same room as Event Horizon. My dad and I saw it in the theater thinking it was going to be a regular sci-fi movie (starring Sam Neill!). Boy was I wrong. My dad thought it was dumb as hell but I was terrified the entire time. A few years later it was on loop on the campus movie station for a…

And not including Firefight for ODST was a pretty huge mistake, I feel.

They’re slot machines in everything but name, meticulously crafted to encourage player spending and keep them on the hook.
