Yeah, they do.

I’m not limiting myself to one review, it was just that you were saying I was being nebulous, so I threw out one especially egregious example that was in my mind when I made that post, because it was all I had time to do. I wouldn’t be on Kotaku if I was ignoring a particular angle. I’m still trying to find a…

Heya. Finally back to this...

OK, so what ideology does Mario Kart give us? Because I am not seeing that. I disagree that reviewing something on the basis of what it is intended to be is an ideological stance. It is the opposite, it is throwing your experience over to the developer. If a game is formulated around a…

You can if you get to know them.

Clearly you never listened to the panel.

Again though, at least Thunderf00t is actually putting out content. Anita is mostly getting paid for doing nothing at this point. Your side needs to actually MAKE something if you want to be taken seriously in the free market. Show us the products you want by example.

I don’t really care how it started. It’s not a…

I’ve posted the full audio multiple times on this article, or you could easily find it yourself using the link I did give. I didn’t want to get too spammy so I only posted the relevant bit to you that shows they were invited.

She never said she was a victim either, she said that everyone has problems, not women…

That’s ridiculous. I’ve been a gamer for 30 years, and there have been tons of women there the whole time. You are telling me they only just started participating? Nonsense. Perhaps your tastes have changed to games where you are seeing more women? I assure you they have always been there.

Anyway, talk is cheap.…

You have it backwards. It is the lady who actually wanted civil debate who is being shut up, not the other way around.

They can bitch all they like, but it’s destructive, not constructive, and it’s making things worse and not better. Well, worse for the majority (on both sides), the more things burn, the more money…

I think people are scared of the boogie man, basically. They (GG/MRA’s) have been billed as abhorrent monsters, so the very fact they were present in the room was enough to make people hyperventillate and push to get rid of them. It’s sad, they never did anything wrong. Seeing Alison cry hit me pretty hard because…

I guess I would rather the reviewer was grown up enough that he could review the game without saying “ewwww boobies” every other paragraph. It makes a really difficult read. Unfortunatly this sort of tone is every more common lately and it makes it really difficult to find reviews that just talk about the game on its…

Then they are doing a bad job of being a hate group by engaging in a civil debate with the enemy. Disagreement! How awful!

And n

I was referring to the Polygon review of Bayonetta 2 mostly. I will give this the time it deserves later though, got stuff to do right now. Thanks for being civil and listening though, will get back to you. :)

It was the cited reason. I imagine they were just looking for any old excuse after they saw the dangerous and scary logo though.

“I totally agree” “I totally agree” “I totally agree”. Sounds like they were reeeeeally pissing the panel off!

Here is the full thing. I think it was a debate, there was a lot of back and forth, and the panel clearly welcomed the conversation. They even agreed on many points.

The problem is if I post a short clip you say it’s out of context, if I post the full thing you say “I’m not wading through all that monstorous filth”.
Here is the full thing anyway, the clip I posted is at about 18mins in. If you listen to it (you won’t) you will see it led to a really interesting debate in which the…

Let me put it another way then. I would like to see games reviewed in the spirit they were made. I don’t want a review to be a box ticking exercise (eg. are there at least 2 women in the game who talk to each other about something other than men), but an honest appraisal of whether the apparent vision of the game…
