Since it invariably is going to come up, I don’t understand how people can scream “this is a witchhunt” or “people are too sensitive” or “this is SJW nonsense” when time and again big gaming/tech companies have proven to be navel gazing, bro-clubs who alienate anyone who isn’t a straight white male.
It’s not…

That was an editing error. In recent years, we’ve been writing “Did they deliver”, allowing the “they” to refer to whichever studio or publisher or platform-holder was making the promise. We meant to do the same thing here and have fixed it. Can’t blame Microsoft for EA whiffing on the Anthem release date, right?
Yeah I don’t really understand this either. Almost all of these are games made by third party developers. I mean I know Microsoft has a hand in getting them to market (approving the finished product, addressing hardware related bugs, setting up multiplayer servers, etc) but I would hardly lay the credit or blame at…
I’m finding it kinda odd how “Microsoft delivered” on the works of other publishers, especially multiplatform ones. They didn’t really ‘do’ anything except showcase their (usually multiplatform) games as part of their presentation. Sorry if I sound super sarcy, it was just kinda odd to present it like that (IMO).
There has been a lot of cynicism in the gaming community as of late, from BattlefieldV and numerous other games, who can blame them though ?. With that said, I’m interested in this, I remember playing an OLD MMo called Fallen Earth the concept was right and the core mechanics were fine, but it lacked substance. I…
I just re-read the whole piece and I am scratching my head even more as to why she felt compelled to waste everyone’s time when the gist of this piece is simply humblebrag about her dad and her family without even realizing the savior element tied to it. Her dad barely even talks about his work that saved, in part,…
I stopped reading at “At the same time that Santa Fe and Taos undergo a massive and perhaps irreversible gentrification process.” FFS, Taos is a goddamned ski resort and has been an artist colony since 1899. Georgia O’Keeffe moved to Santa Fe in 1984. Both these places were gentrified before this person was even born.…
Oblivious rich people are going to fuck up any local culture no matter where it is. I think after the first period of actual Manifest Destiny this comes as no surprise.
It takes me weeks back in Brooklyn to recover.
I picture you typing this from a church pew as you clutch your JC Penny pearl necklace.
DO NOT TOUCH FATHER OF THE BRIDE GODDAMMIT!!! That movie is perfect and every time I watch it it feels like I’m putting on the most comfy bathrobe and slippers and eating a bowl of warm cheesey mashed potatoes. I’m not ashamed that I watch it at least once a month. I’ll even watch the sequel which is sub-par at best,…
Wow, one of them actually gave away the gameplan! I’ve been saying for 20+ years, all they want is more people, in more desperate situations, who are willing to do more work for less compensation.
Is that a tattoo?
Also, Zenyatta inspired me to start transcendental meditation, true story.
you are part of the problem with this game. It is THE MOST TOXIC game out right now in the FPS genre because of many people like you. It’s a game, have fun and stop getting triggered because some asshole loves Genji. I had some fun in the beta but the player base completely turned me away from ever playing again. …
I don’t play overwatch to work, I do that all day. I play overwatch to have fun and it just so happens that I find Hanzo to be a lot of fun. If it pisses anyone off, complain to Blizzard and petition to have him removed. Otherwise, I don’t particularly care. If you feel we need a tank, pick a tank. If you feel we need…
Setting the mood.
Fucking level 16. Laughable!
Shut up.
Yea I work at an ad agency with a similar problem of women in creative leadership and that statement is straight bullshit.
