Nope. The “good” people in the group actively ignore the fact that not only do a huge chunk of their fellows actively harass people, but that the group they support was made with that very goal in mind.

From the man’s Twitter account. That’s him defending GamerGate (aka parts of his audience), saying to engage in a civil dialogue with people that harass people over video games (his own admission). But hey, it’s fine, he should stick with his audience because he knows which side his bread is buttered on.

BECAUSE SHE SURE WASNT BEING HARASSED BEFORE THAT ARTICLE!!!!! NO SIR, EVERYTHING WAS GREAT UNTIL THAT ARTICLE CAUSED ALL THE HARASSMENT!!!!!!!!! IF IT DIDNT EXIST SHE NEVER WOULD HAVE GOTTEN HARASSED LIKE SHE WAS FOR WEEKS BEFORE THE ARTICLE WAS WRITTEN!!!!!!!!

YUP BLAME PEOPLE FOR SHIT THAT IS DONE TO THEM!!!!!!!!! YOU GOT IT!!!!!!

I understand what you are saying. But at least Paradox is on record for saying the review is fine and ‘ethical’.

I think it should be brought to peoples’ attention. I think Paradox should comment on it. Because if anybody has learned anything from the past few years, it’s that this stuff does not stop. Right now it looks like these people are trying to ruin Kaiser’s career and reputation because he posted a mixed review of a…

You think this guy gave a paradox (a small studio) game a low score because he was influences by big publishers? Do you think big publishers bribe IGN to give indie games low scores? Whatever you’re on, I want some.

One side is wrong and bad 85% of the time, and other other side is wrong and bad 15% of the time. This makes it true that neither group is “all bad” or “all good,” but it doesn’t mean that we can’t say which group is a whole hell of a lot more wrong, and that group is gamergate.

Dude, she was getting harassed left and right by these fuckers who did everything in their power to get dirt on her and get her fired anyway, and you are shooting the messenger? Seriously? So what’s the alternative here? Have no one even attempt to defend Ms. Rapp at all and just let her fend for herself against the…

The news here isn’t that gamergaters are attacking a reviewer and accusing him of being biased. That’s not exactly unique.

Ok, they get attention, so what? As long as they are being exposed for the idiots they are, I don’t see what’s wrong with them getting bad press. Sure they will whine, and cry more conspiracy and maybe throw a few tantrums in the grays, but if you are letting that somehow upset you that’s the real tragedy here. I just…

The nerve of Kotaku, reporting video game news just because they are a website that exists to report video game news.

And that’s news. It’s the first time I’ve ever heard of a developer having to come out on a reviewer’s defense from their rabid fans. I don’t know what you expected, should news sites avoid all sensible topics because... What? They win? I don’t even get what you think they achieved here.

TB is shunned because he says absolutely terrible things. Why should anyone appreciate the views of a guy who makes excuses for a hate group while feigning neutrality? There’s nothing respectable about it.

Riiiiiight, because developers having to weigh in on smearing campaigns around the reviewers of their games is usually a sign of things dying down. Literally no one knew about this before this article! Silly Kotaku, always whipping up “controversies” out of thin air.

You’re right! I updated the article to make note of it near the beginning. Also, for those interested, here’s a trailer of the hub:

Sega, just being bosses like usual.

you didn’t touch on the room/hub environment they added. That’s just as cool, really. You can see all your games in boxes on the shelves, old school tv, consoles...Whats not to love.

I’m not sure the poor in the USA would agree totally with that statement.. And you are wrong, poverty is increasing, not decreasing. The middle class is disapearing in favor of more rich and more poor, inequality is at its highest since ever and the USA are on the verge of one of history’s worst economic collapse that…
