Alright! That’s awesome to hear. :D Three cheers for your dad, and please carry on his tradition - if you have kids, that is. :)

In my own experience as a woman who games (aka gamer), I steadfastly avoid PVP lobbies, primarily because they are far too sweaty and toxic to be any fun. But... give me some Zelda, HZD, Uncharted, GoT, TLOU, Fallout... I’ve played them all multiple times. I would say there’s probably lots of other women out there who…

Studies show that women who play online games tend to not participate in voice chats or otherwise make obvious they are women to avoid harassment 

If I play a multiplayer game I do not speak in game. 360 days I tried with halo and kept getting harassed. Some didn’t even believe I was a woman and kept calling me a squeaker. I feel like maybe too much anime time and not enough real life interaction with women or something.

I mean, you can only analyze the data you have. If men don’t answer or don’t answer honestly, there’s not much you can do. Also, with THAT said, if you broke it down to type of game and genre, I’m willing to bet that women aren’t in multi player lobbies with voice chat on. They likely get harassed if they do. So they…

Everything is AI. Because that's how Kotaku has been pushing any and everything which uses a machine. 

oh, I saw that video! It was pretty funny.

This reminds me of that one time Dunkey beat Sky in Smash.

Way to misinterpret the message of the video (there is no ethical consumption in a capitalism society) while also dismissing the sexual and physical abusers Dunkey highlighted in said video.

So you say you’re not going to mention the ingredients for Napalm, but then you embed a tweet that...clearly mentions all the ingredients?

Summer games fest has been trying to replace E3 and while it’s definitely not amazing it’s had some cool stuff. I hope that grows into the new E3 in the sense of a somewhat centralized time for news, even if it isn’t quite as exciting as E3 has been in the past.

The lack of knowledge about LTT is a little embarrassing. Clearly just an article posted for the clicks instead of any actual research done, surely there is someone on staff who knows about LTT/LMG.

Yes, they backed up their videos - They have “The Vault” storing their old videos and are advocates of the 3-2-1 backup…

Yeah, that aesthetic is not great. I get wanting to differentiate from The Sims in some respect, but a stylized look is the way to go in my opinion.

It looks...cheap? Almost like an indie project. Don’t get me wrong I want someone to take the Sims and EA down a few notches but this aint it.

It happened in 3, too.

Dismissing Pray4Mojo’s reply was a bad call. It wasn’t offensive, it didn’t attack or criticise you, it wasn’t in anyone’s ‘defence’, and it’s a valid point - an apology with action is better than an apology without. I have a hard time believing you’d disagree with that.

Even worse than the people who immediately jump to defend these people and their mistakes are the people who are adamant that there is no possible road to redemption.

Stop being so cynical. 

Do you truly believe that no human being is capable of reform? Is turning over a new leaf an incomprehensible concept to you? Have a little more faith in humanity.

I mean, yeah he obviously shouldn’t have done it in the first place, but arguably what he’s doing now is better than a lame-ass apology and moving on until it is forgotten.
