You’re confusing “stereotypical high school to college aged gamers” with “high up executives for gaming companies”. The two things have some crossover, but very little.

marginalized people must good at fashion,“Stereotype

They jumped to that because two people who are not white were dressed well at last years awards while just completely ignoring the fact that those people normally work in a different industry that often requires them to dress up and without a doubt have stylist who work for them. 

I don’t disagree that gaming execs famously don’t know how to dress. I also don’t disagree that the gaming industry is too white/male dominated. But how do you write 1,000 words or whatever about how bad the fashion is and then make the conclusion at the end of “So, basically, invite more marginalized people to The

Suprisingly grey and beige for the most part ( everyone young assumes it was all primary colours and coolness ).For some reason wood panelling was a big thing .

The 80's were RAD you young punk!

I’d love to read an article about diversifying the upper echelons of video game developing companies.  I couldn’t give a rats ass less about what any of them are wearing.

So, basically, invite more marginalized people to The Game Awards, give more marginalized people jobs in the industry, and maybe let someone who isn’t a white guy named Todd or Glen make a triple-A game. Then The Game Awards may start looking like a proper awards show.”

Maybe have this be the crux of the article

The thing is, I expect Hollywood folk to dress up, but game developers? No. I wouldn’t even be offended if they showed up in sweatpants. It ain’t about the fashion, or the ‘drip’. I don’t care if the lead composer of Elden Ring shows up in more than a sports coat with a Cuphead t-shirt underneath. There are few things

There is no gaming equivalent of the Oscars. The Game Awards is a commercial.

As shitty and toxic as the tech industry can be, I feel like its casual lack of dress codes is a GREAT thing. I don’t really see a reason to make everyone rent a tux to pretend like they don’t wear comfortable clothes every day.

It sounds like made-up future slang from 90s sci-fi btw

Yep, out of all the current issues with the industry, game execs and designers not wearing enough couture is definitely pressing.

Hey kids, what the fuck does “dripless” mean

This article: The Game Awards highlight this completely negligible thing that doesn’t have anything to do with the actual problems of the industry.

Me: The Game Awards highlight almost everything bad about the industry right now, like throwing money at a completely irrelevant event, that is only important because of

It’s bad enough that the Oscars and other awards shows are stuffy, elitist back-patting fluff. Let’s not turn TGA into that as well. If clothing designers want to dress attendees on their dime, fine. But this is all coming off as clothing-shaming as it is now.

Who gives a flying fuck what someone wears to a video game award show?  And more importantly, who gives a flying fuck about video game award shows?

When Gucci starts calling up these folks to loan them astronomically expensive outfits we can start being critical of their wardrobe choices... until then... come on... this is *not* the Oscars.
