I’m not surprised that it’s kotaku carrying water for this shitbird since you all drink out of the same toilet. If she had said the stuff she said about literally any other group of people she’d be gone from that platform. You all hem and haw about inflammatory behavior and just being garbage to other people in…

People “accused her of identifying as a deer?” Didn’t she admit this herself? There’s a clip where she talks about eating grass to fulfill her inner deer-woman.

Honestly, if anything, we need to push usage of voice chat harder. Women play games. A lot of women play games. So do LGBTQ+ people, and people with “non-standard voices”. And the fact is, by sheer numbers, the stable, non-assholeish people outnumber the manbaby rage children by a pretty huge margin, and yet we have…

“She argued back and forth with them for a while, eventually saying that “a lot of people with cis white male-sounding voices are here telling me that voice chat isn’t a problem,”

People got worked up over nothing.  Competitive games aren’t going to get rid of voice chat, but simply add other measures so it can be avoided if desired.  Playing with randoms isn’t what I would call competitive gaming even if the mode is listed as it.  The pro gamers have more voice than these puppets they have for…

Go to their twitter and read her replies and comments. She is not the person you really want to bring change be they acting like a bully and abuser themselves.

“The only way to have a level playing field at the highest level of play is to not have voice chat”

Incredibly, I came out of reading this thinking every single person involved in this story sucks.

Only an idiot thinks things can’t get worse.

Tencent’s business practices and ad optimization are evidence enough. 

There’s nothing xenophobic about being wary of an authoritarian regime’s attempt to influence our culture through our economic system. Tencent is essentially the corporate division of the Chinese government, and it exists to forward their agenda.

“but we now have tangible evidence that it’s also doing its job of booting cheaters.”

I think Fire Emblem 7 deserves a go for anyone looking for GBA titles to play. It was renamed to just “Fire Emblem” for the west, as it was the first release of the series in english. It’s still my favorite of them.

Shodown has already been ridiculously profitable. A minor controversy that will be forgotten about next week isn’t going to cancel the series. 

So let me get this straight, you guys are mad at the person in charge of a twitter account for posting screenshots of the game’s DLC they’re hired to promote?

They can certainly try. But this is the internet. Once it’s out here, it’s out here for good.

Yeah, unless I’m mistaken, they don’t actually need a grand jury, they could file charges right now if they wanted.

Even IF this kid was the neighborhood burglar (and I bet money he wasn’t), why the fuck are father and son parked in the middle of the street with guns already drawn before he arrived unless they were planning on shooting him? Did they really think this kid was gonna break in on a crowded street in broad daylight?…

Reading that quote again... How were his actions not “malicious” in light of remarks like that? It wasn’t a “lapse in judgement,” it was deciding to be an asshole and fuck with an event. And as for “apologizing,” I don’t believe him. You can’t just say your sorry when you that blatantly broke the rules, you’re just…

See this is the kind of leaking I can get behind. Unlike with Last Of Us nobody is having their hard work ruined or their game spoiled, it’s just a glimpse at history we otherwise would have never seen.
