“The article only talks about the extremists on one side.”

I’ll take this as your concession then. Thanks!

No, it’s a statement of fact. He was targeted and harassed for covering the article, It doesn’t matter how that makes you feel when we all know why.

Whoa I thought I was on Kinja, not 4chan

before jumping the gun and misreporting

BOTH SIDES DO IT!!!!!!!!!! Ignore the months long, specific, planned campaign of harassment because I vaguely imply that it happens to the people doing the harassing too!

“Recognizing an argument as an appeal to pity does not necessarily invalidate the conclusion or the factual assertions”

Holy fuck is it still 2002?

Don’t forget the part where this woman is actually in favor of keeping localized games intact, including bust sliders and not completely distorting writing/context during localization.

Don’t promote child sex and don’t escort while being a PR agent for a corporation. Is that so hard?

I don’t think anyone expects you not to appreciate a nice backside, if you’re into that.

It’s more about how you express that appreciation. As a heterosexual (and happily married) man, I still notice attractive women all the time. I do not, however, say, “DAAAAYUM,” out loud, as that would be disrespectful to my wife,…

Even if you don’t like those things, she had nothing to do with them. She did no work on FE:F. Which you’d know if you’d bothered to even read the article.

Clearly a solid ‘win’ for Ethical Video Games Journalism.

I always think it’s weird men are intimidated by a woman that’s everything they say they want. I picked a career I love but will never make me rich, so I’m fine with a woman making more than me. Especially if she likes her job. Maybe I was just forced to accept that long ago because my mom makes more than my dad.

It’s about ethics in games journalism, man. Come on.

This article was awesome. Don’t have much more to say.
