Expecting EA to deliver an enjoyable game is unrealistic at this point in time.

It doesn’t have galactic conquest, check their Facebook comments.

On their Facebook page.

An element, possibly, but that is an inevitable human condition in at least some groups. Calling out the whole for the actions of a few just for gamers comes off as dishonest and disingenuous when not only are many other similar scenarios are ignored, but it’s impossible to completely eliminate that element. Even if

I am surprised so many of the comments on here are saying this, as I seem to vaguely remember Kotaku, Gawker, and Jezebel (if not the articles then the commenters, like I said my memory is fuzzy) saying that video games DID cause sexism. I also distinctly remember people loudly clamoring for censoring or a large

“Any hobby that largely includes men is going to to have a segment of it’s population that is mysognist.”

But doesn’t this study show that is not the case?

That’s kind of a silly distinction, like saying that you aren’t concerned about video games causing violence, but the violence in the video games. If one, which is wrong in real life, is okay to have in a fantasy scenario, why wouldn’t the other? This isn’t to say I support sexism, but your argument could be applied

That’s a pretty interesting question actually. If violent games don’t manifest as violence in gamers, then do (possibly) sexist games manifest as sexism in gamers, or are they able to differentiate both as fiction without issue? With the first being pretty thoroughly debunked from what I have seen, it would make sense

Jesus, people are still talking about Gamergate? You’re not even beating a dead horse anymore, it’s just a pile of pulp at this point.

Whoa, really? I thought it was all in the realm of civil issues, not actual legal reprimands.

I thought humans couldn't digest alcohol properly due to them being toxic calories to the point that the actual caloric content was much lower?

Citing the Guardian and the Huffington Post makes me think your claims are dubious, but there are still way better options than quinoa.

Shut your mouth, kale rocks.

It's just as healthy as hitting your child; if it's used right then it's constructive, and if it is not then it is abusive.

I'm glad I saw somebody say it. This article is presenting age old wisdom as if they are these genius social engineers that have just invented the solution to shitty children. Where's the "roll eyes" emoticon when you need it?

God, you probably let your kids run around in lines and restaurants and yell in a quiet building, don't you? Lazy parenting abounds in these comments; it's your job to teach your kids how to properly behave in society, not give up and let them do weird shit because all you do is reinforce that behavior and make them

My mom used this extensively for fairly small infractions, and reserved hitting for the very worst. You knew you were in trouble if she smacked your face rather than just giving you some horrible chores for a month.

Smacking worked great with my brother, but I just doubled down on being a little shit when I was hit because I am stubborn and was a horrible child. Shame was the most useful tool that got me to reign in my bad behavior, but hitting is still a great disciplinary tool when used correctly with some kids.

You know, there are very good ways to implement hitting as a form of discipline for children, and that is not it. At all.
