I had a really nice long post written explaining how women were deliberate driven out of games development and programming by men and then girls were kept out of gaming by the sons of men, but then the stupid android keyboard ate the post.

According to your article i guess that makes us sexist.

“I work at a AAA studio, fewer than 1 in 10 CVs we get are from women. Not everything is caused by the patriarchy ffs”

Not everything is caused by the patriarchy, but the fact that you get so few women applicants definitely is. 

Whether a small development studio is all male or all female or what-have-you does not matter.

bruh. they could have easily managed to hire one woman, but didn’t. chill.

Man Valve could really take advantage of this. Just release a statement that they’re banning all racist games (even though they’re probably banned already) and two seconds later Epic will be announcing that they’re happy to have racism on their storefront.

It’s almost like they’re a cynical business entity that played fans and the media like a fiddle.

The fact that there are people who will drop a hundred grand on a JPEG because that means they “own” it is just... ridiculous. It’s legitimately absurd.

According to Sweeney, he and Epic make a distinction between the company as a game developer and as a tech company. So while game dev Epic won’t ever touch NFTs (at least, for now...) the tech company version of Epic is open and ready to do business with blockchain devs and creators.

It’s Wabbit Season/Duck Season, aka the Republican approach. “Whatever the Democrats say they want, we want the opposite!”

Frankly, I feel like NFTs are the perfect example of how absolutely out of touch consumerism has become with the human experience. And, on that matter, the real extent of income inequity.

Epic: Gives a bunch of expensive games away for free to get some goodwill.
Also Epic: We welcome scams and please hurry up and destroy the environment!

Real nice of Epic to give me another reason to never use or interact with any of their platforms ever again

Just one more reason to never buy anything from the “Epic” store.

It is indeed hilarious how many of those ‘anti-socialism’ states are utterly dependent on socialism to stay afloat. Who do they think pays for the multi-hundred-million dollar paychecks that McNoChin brags about getting for his petty state of Kentucky? Yeah, exactly. Predominantly California and New York. Without…

It’s fake jake and you know it!

… Fuck.

By knowing the voice of the video game character (he was a fan of the Witcher series before taking on Geralt’s role in the show), and accidentally defaulting to it during a scene because you’re a method actor like that.

Would have believed Cavill found his Geralt voice whenever he said this word

Hmmm...
