Unfortunately this makes an awful lot of sense. If she's not trying to fix the problem and gets annoyed when you do, it's because for her, the problem is already fixed.

I must gleefully confess that I'm such a HUGE Dragon Age fan, that I clicked on this article just to get more...everything Dragon Age related. Every chance I get, I say: "If The Lord of the Rings and A Song of Ice and Fire were to have a love child...and that love child went epic, its name would be Dragon Age:

I have had stalkers and restraining orders issued in the past, I have had people show up on my doorstep when my personal information was HARD to get. To have my location revealed to the world would give a entry point for a few mentally ill people who have fixated on me, and allow them to show up and make good on the

As well-intentioned as you might be, your wishes for this to simply "be over" are ruined by virtue of your call for peace being a non-starter; you don't get to say you're tired of the whole thing and then in the same breath, resort to the tired straw-man which continues to perpetuate the argument.

You see, Steve, that's the thing — you're tired, we're tired. Everyone's tired. But ultimately it takes me far less effort to email Kotaku and Gawker's advertisers, get them to pull out (just like BMW and Mercedes just did in the past 48 hours) than for you to keep pushing out thinkpieces and paying your staff.

This is totally not Bias on Kotaku, seeing as how "Gamergate" was created almost solely against you guys. Maybe... just maybe, you should stay out of it.

First off, there are a bunch of well represented women in gaming.

Secondly, everyone keeps changing their minds on what they want women represented as. Make them pretty: Sexist. Make them ugly: Misogynist. Make them uber buff: dude with tits. Make them attackable: Rape culture. Make them NPCs: You made women into

So you are siding with someone who manipulates, lies, and cherry picks arguments that suits her narrative, as opposed to someone who takes things with context, and applies truth to their opinion?

You want someone who DOESN'T PLAY GAMES to represent you?

Is that what you are saying?

You are right. You should probably

Proof? Watch her tropes videos.

She is never seen actually playing games. She never knows the context of the scene in the game she is mentioning, meaning she hasn't played it. She never mentions the gameplay, which is something anyone would do if they had played the game. She borrows lets play footage from other

To critique food, you don't need to be a chef, but you absolutely must EAT food to critique it.

You don't need to author books, but in order to critique them you absolutey must READ them.

If you want to trash talk film, you don't need to make movies. But you at least have to WATCH the movie first.

While not being a

You do realize that 100 trolls out of Millions of gamers does not represent us in the slightest right?

The main reason no one criticizes Women's Magazines because if you go digging deeply enough, you find the managing editors and even the writers are in fact women. So the argument of perpetuating a 'male-centric view of women' is not only false, but perpetuated by other women.

I find humanist to be a better term and ideology if trying to advance the progression of rights and behavior. If you don't like the term feminist there you go.

Rap's got it right. Remember the Lakers Riots? All three of them?

It never ceases to amaze me just how low and vile some people in the gaming community can be. Regardless of what anyone thinks of Anita and her videos, she is simply trying to open the eyes of gamers up to something they may not have thought about much before. NONE of that is a crime. She's allowed to say her opinion,

Yes, and I suppose ISIS represents all Muslim based on your logic that gamers who make stupid threats represent everyone who games.

It's no okay to threaten people's lives, even if they're scam artists.

This is getting ridiculous.

Not all gamers.

Did you see the nearly dozen articles on sites like Kotaku, Polygon, Gamasutra, and Ars Technica that came out within a day of each other proclaiming the death of the "gamer" identify or the evil of "gamers"?
