it shouldnt be expected for the commenter to have to do homework to reply to a news piece while addressing the report, in a way by reacting the way they did, the commentator point about sisi seems all the more legit. Instead of addressing any of the issues they made it into a thing about being misgendered and changed…

I’m not tracking down any pronouns on fucking Twitter. If they don’t make them accessible on the site they are putting out “content” then its not on the reader.

Oh fuck off, theres no way they knew what your gender was. 

Apologies for misgendering you. Can you let me know your preferred pronouns? They’re not easily accessible anywhere on this site, not even in your introductory article: https://kotaku.com/i-m-still-on-my-bs-but-now-i-get-healthcare-1847549762

Baseless? She has dubbed herself a TERF and constantly retweets Blue Lives Matters posts. That would be enough for gaming companies to distance themselves from this kind of thinking in light of all the controversies coming out of companies like Activision-Blizzard and Riot.

Yeha, Kotaku is trying to create a narrative against Hale, even though Taylor was very much in the wrong here.   15K for a week of work seems like a sweet deal to me. Esp when you look at the salaries of the people working on the actual game itself.  

It’s actually kinda funny how Hellena Taylor got milkshake duck’d in a matter of days for being TERF-y

It also sucks that this might stall talks of how badly paid VAs can be in the business — simply because the person that highlighted the issue turned out to be unsavory.

Actually, same thing happened with the…

If I tried to burn the wrong fucking house down I'd be pretty quiet about it too. Well maybe not going that far but fanned the flames for sure.

Especially that article only listed as “Update” on the boycott article.

Not putting the recent information uncovered by Bloomberg (which was referenced on Kotaku in an updated previous article) where it was proven that she was offered 4k PER session for 4+ sessions is pretty disingenuous.

There’s nothing to wait for.

No, they’re not. The most recent development is Taylor was offered a recording job of no less than 4 sessions at 4k dollars a piece.  She countered by asking over 25k per session.  That’s when Platinum sought someone else for the job.  

No.  It DOESN’T matter if “she knew”, harassment is NEVER ok.  This is what you people need to get through your heads.  There is no situation where harassment is ever ok.  

Guilty of what?

Good. I don’t care how you feel about the whole situation, attacking Jennifer Hale for just doing her job (a job that she got after negotiations with Taylor fell through) is a pretty crappy thing to do.

My take is that she was far overstepping her role as a VA, straight up claiming that she “created” Bayonetta, claiming that Jen Hale had “no right” to take “her” role, and likely overvaluing herself to cash in on the hot IP during a Renaissance of its genre (though to be fair, if she’s in a bad financial situation, I…

the reality seems simple, shes been fired from hellsing ultimate a few years back as well, shes a major outspoken MAGA supporter, she is quoting bible verses. The 4k offer was probably a low ball to guarantee she didnt return and shes most likely insufferable to work with.
Shes not getting any other VA jobs due to this…

Nonono. See, anyone who likes the game is a good person, and anyone who hates the game is an alt-right racist misogynist. There's no middle ground. 

I don’t know man, seems pretty invalidating to write an article on a major news site mocking the men for wanting intimate connection with someone

Man there’s such a weird overlap between the “end the stigma towards men’s mental health” crowd and the “haha men’s feelings don’t matter” crowd
