reading the comments to articles like this give me a fucking headache. gamers are the most wilfully obtuse, purposefully ignorant people on the fucking planet. “oh it’s completely fictional and therefore has no real world bearing” says the doofuses who buy brands thanks to advertising and have opinions formed by…

i didn’t realize this dude was a piece of shit chud. sorry to all and especially to his victims. 

i love articles like this. i love hearing about people pushing games to their absolute limit. amazing stuff by this dude

yeah it seems the smaller the village, the less it needs policing without

i can only assume the comment section to this article will be much dissembling and equivocating to minimize the results of the survey. us gamers seem incapable of acknowledging the baked-in toxicity of our community.

on one hand, i think it’s important for people in the film industry to be familiar with films.... on the other hand, anything that irritates Star Wars fans is a Good Thing

sitcoms and cable tv shows are also directed professionally and use that time to tell narratives. vlogs and other YT things i’ve seen have been people speaking into a camera with intermittent cuts (because they either over-edit things or because they don’t do multiple takes and then cut out the hiccups).

13 minutes long????? why are vlogs or whatever always so damn long???? who’s got time for 13 minutes of one person? what do they feel the time with? i remember hearing jefree star’s crying video was like 20 minutes long! that’s an eternity. do these people think they’re Nicholas Winding Refn??????

gamers are corporate bootlickers, that’s why everybody in the comments probably bought something today anyway from amazon

pretty fucking disingenuous to dismiss the “Mary Pete” epithet, which is a) homophobic and b) super ancient

these two ladies seem like characters cut from a sketch show which specifically makes fun of Brooklyn and how annoying New Yorkers are

i can’t in good conscience approve of adults wearing white socks for anything other than professional games of tennis but she is amazing and loveable so i’m torn

Man I love the GDQ stuff. You learn so much about the games from the commentating and from the players. Had no idea about the “too many sprites” problem with SMB2. Fascinating stuff. Love speedruns!!!

this is great journalism. thanks for this

but she’s right... men are trash. and so are gamers. 

i admire speedrunners so much. i went through a phase this spring where i only played Dishonored 2 over and over again, to the point where i was memorizing enemy movement and going faster and faster through levels. but then i watched a speedrun of the game, specifically no-glitch, and i was instantly humbled by how lit…

imagine being a respectable journalist and having to write this article about video game boobs and how important they are. jesus christ gamers are the worst

well thanks for this interview because i have now wasted 40 minutes at work going through that blog’s archives

developers are too scared to say the bare minimum that “Nazis are bad” for fear of alienating their customer base. what a sad comment on video games

absolutely adored Heart Shaped Box when i read it eons ago, but Horns ascended to category “most hated novels” quickly. couldn’t make it 40 pages into The Fireman.

but weirdly enough, i adore Locke and Key.
