Many other devs manage to get into public discussion with fans without pulling the gender card on them and calling business partners of their companies “random asshats”, you are pretending it’s rocket science combined with neurosurgery. I’ve seen threads on D2, Overwatch and LoL forums much, much more toxic than this…

My response is that no, she does not have an obligation to answer respectful discourse like this poster thinks.

Except it was not some random asshat that watches CSI that wanted to engage in civil discussion with your publicly disclosed post, it was one of the business partners of the firm you work for, and you now called him a “random asshat”, tried to pass off their valid talking points as offensive specifically because of…

Her twitter is a constant shitstorm of political posts. She also expressed that she was glad when TotalBiscuit died after struggling with cancer. Considering how she replied to a completely innocuous comment that was a reply to her open, public post discussing narrative, I can’t imagine she’s any different in the work…

Yes, two people getting fired over insulting paying costumers and business partners of their company does set a precedent, but it’s a good one: don’t insult your costumers and business partners over an official account, especially if their coments do not warrant it.

Holy shit, I’ve never in my life seen someone try this hard to justify shitty, inappropiate behaviour, especially coming from someone using an account associated with their company. I’m a dev, and any single one of the responses she made the past few days to a customer would have gotten me fired on the spot, and some…

And then there’s the third type of people, like you, who completely avoid going over the fact that this is something consistent with being a games developer in the age of public forums. EVERY game has fans trying to give feedback on the game, some more than others. Have you ever seen the LoL, Dota2, Overwatch,…

You think it’s absolutely appropiate for a person calling someone trying to initiate civil discourse a “random asshat” and assume they are mysoginist over nothing? Have you read what the guy wrote to her?

Well, that’s kinda racist. As a latino I’d be offended if the headline included the race of a latino offender as if it had anything to do with it. I’m also willing to bet you’d take offense for your ethnicity coming up as a descriptor in a headline for no reason at all. You guys are breeding toxicity and racial divide.

The lady is an asshole, but do you guys really need to bring up her race in this shit?

Dump A.

Its purpose is to correct a systemic and individual bias. That is its only purpose.

It works by giving more opportunies to someone based on their race first and then on their merit. Someone with barely passing qualifications can land a job better suited to someone else because that other person didn’t fit the desired brown to white person ratio of the company. I’d know, I’m in college and I’ve seen…

Not that guy, but fuck affirmative action. I honestly believe it’s absolutely racist to hire me because I’m “good enough” to make the cut so a company can fill a race quota when I wouldn’t make it in if it was based on merit alone, just as I think it would be bullshit to not get hired because another guy with worse…

I hear you man. As a latino, shit like this makes my blood boil. The woman in the video was specifically talking about kids who earned their place there on merit only getting their spot taken by a bullshit diverisity quota and the headline tries to spin it as it being race related. Diversity quotas are the most…

Yes, all companies spend a lot on anti piracy R&D, but so far only sony’s approach with the vita has had such a massive effect, because they really overspent on the thing. The format of the Vita flash cards was specifically engineered to combat piracy. There’s no way around this. They already had their closed…

I’m very sorry, but even as a Vita owner, the Vita was a massive failure. It was such a big failure that Sony has completely dropped out of the portable console scene. Attach rate on the vita is so high because the thing took forever to get cracked, sales were sinking since 6 months after release, and everyone has…

And the DS line has a much better attachment rate for games than the PSP, which is what devs actually care about. Piracy on the PSP literally took sony out of the portable game console race, because they invested heavily into preemtive measures for the Vita, including that stupid vita memory stick that is expensive…

>PS Vita

Piracy on the PSP destroyed Sony’s credibility with mobile platforms, “forcing” their hand to double down on bullshit propietary memories for the Vita, propietary video out port and several other loops devs had to jump through to get on the early dev train, all while forcing the price up because R&Ding all of the new…
