Dude, you had a hissy fit on Twitter because you found out that someone didn’t personally like you.

Hey maybe try doing your fucking job instead of whining your way out of it because the dev didn’t have the reaction you wanted?

Actually, it kind of sounds exactly like what he said. You aren’t being a professional in this case, and you weren’t being a professional from the start. You used Twitter as a crappy platform. You could have tweeted “While Titan Souls isn’t the type of game I’d usually play, let’s check it out anyway”. No, instead,…

Yet the backlash from his statement is inherently giving the game a bad review as the article also stated. The proper thing would have been to do an objective review as a professional or just not do it without the 5 minute talk on it.

You talk too much, man.

You don’t understand what “having it out for someone” means. He simply doesn’t care about your opinion. And probably doesn’t care because of dramatic overblown sensitive bullshit exactly like this. Your guise of objectivity is incredibly transparent and sad.

The professional thing to do would be to ignore the tweet and cover the game and give your honest opinion of the product. instead, you’ve made the entire dev team look like the “bad guy” and negatively affected their product for the wrong reasons

So the Dev replies to TBs initially negative post with humor and TB interprets this as someone having it out for him and then goes on to write a book about these heinous events? Is that the gist of it? A Dev tries to remain humorous whilst TB turns it into an international incident. Sigh.

Even if I agree that the professional thing is not to review the game (I don’t, but let’s assume arguendo), then just don’t review the game. Posting a press release saying you’re not going to review the game for x and y reasons and passive aggressively tut-tutting the dev is not professional, it’s just another link in…

"I'll give Borderlands the Pre Sequel as an example: I think that Anthony Burch has ruined a lot of the writing in this game JUST to be progressive."

The Gamergate folks are overwhelmingly whiny man-children who are afraid of women. I'm a fairly hardcore gamer myself. I know these mouth breathers and they are not fooling me one bit.

Not caring if the character is straight or gay is fine. On the other hand, getting defensive about that knowledge is rather homophobic. Maybe it is bad writing, but if it's actually insignificant, then you just ignore it.

You could try talking to some of the many women you say you work with.

Except Occupy started as a protest against the banks. Gamergate started as part of a bunch of people witchunting a woman after her ex posted a bunch of information about her. The first use of the tag came when Adam Baldwin tweeted it along with Quinnspiracy videos. We addressed the accusations against us, Stephen sat…

What you're experiencing is often referred to as a "Heteronormative" outlook. This is "denoting or relating to a world view that promotes heterosexuality as the normal or preferred sexual orientation". The idea that heterosexuality, even though it is far more common than homo or bisexuality is more "normal" than other…

Is that what happened? Shit, there are plenty of rants I agree with, for one.

GamerGate is no more about journalistic ethics than the Civil War was about states' rights.

That's because what you said is pretty homophobic.

And that's why people continue to dwell on Zoe Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian and Brianna Wu? None of the Gamergate stuff has remotely been about how AAA publishers interact with media outlets. The ethics claim is a fig leaf for 'aggrieved' gamers having an existential crisis.

So because you've never seen it, it isn't common. Check.
