She hosed all the critics so none of them can give an unbiased review of her "game." It's brilliant!

but can they suck her whole rear end in a top hat?

Zoe Quinn is one of many women targeted by the Gamergate harassment campaign.

Support a feminist today!


Well Kotaku has weighed in with an actual response

http://kotaku.com/in-recent-days-ive-been-asked-several-times-about-a-pos-1624707346/all

quote:

In recent days I've been asked several times about a possible breach of ethics involving one of our reporters. While I believe no such breach occurred, I feel it is important for Kotaku readers who have questions to get clear answers.

The questions involve Nathan Grayson, who began writing for us part-time in March and joined us full-time in July.

The allegations have been extreme. Nathan has been accused of in some way trading positive coverage of a developer for the opportunity to sleep with her, of failing to disclose that he was in a romantic relationship with a developer he had written about, and that he'd given said developer's game a favorable review. All of those are troubling claims that we take seriously. All would be violations of the standards we maintain. Having spoken to Nathan several times, having looked closely at the numerous messages sent our way by concerned readers and, having compared published timelines, our leadership team finds no compelling evidence that any of that is true.

On March 31, Nathan published the only Kotaku article he's written involving Zoe Quinn. It was about Game Jam, a failed reality show that Zoe and other developers were upset about being on. At the time, Nathan and Zoe were professional acquaintances. He quoted blog posts written by Zoe and others involved in the show. Shortly after that, in early April, Nathan and Zoe began a romantic relationship. He has not written about her since. Nathan never reviewed Zoe Quinn's game Depression Quest, let alone gave it a favorable review. 1

Given the information available to us both from Nathan and all sources presented online, I have no reason to believe any further action need be taken. The situation is fraught for all involved, including our readers, whose trust is paramount; inquiry is always welcome.

Yeah, geeze who gives a poo poo about that even if it was true. I bet these people care more about a video game potentially getting a positive review it doesn't deserve than a lobbyist loving a regulator to get a bill through.

haha if people think spewing the word "problematic" over and over is doing actual work as opposed to just repeating a retarded, thoughtless meme to signify that you are an intellectual person. it's like the loving ice bucket challenge. I have accepted your challenge to jerk off on camera and then sit there toweling off and talk about how we can all "beat this thing".

Hey all, I work in the games industry as a game developer and I also get state funding to do research on videogames in the serious academic field of "game studies" along with hundreds of scholars and everybody I know uses words like "ludonarrative literacy" and "problematic" and is super cool and smart. We write books about racism, sexism, capitalism and videogames that real publishers pay us for. Mattie Brice speaks at our conferences because she and other rad people like her and Zoe Quinn have done amazing work in changing the industry for the better in the last few years and thanks to them I've seen first-hand more and more female and minority students starting to get into games which is awesome. Most of my friends in the industry who make the games that matter so much to dumb kids on reddit do it as a day job to pay their bills and honestly think that the games they make are pretty stupid and lovely distractions for pathetic manchildren.

Hope this helps you bunch of babies out


Babies and reddit! Man children!

*posts a book on why sonic is a metaphor for the horrors of capitalism*
*fucks retarded fat broads*
*makes a indie game that steals ideas from the grey blob of indie tropes*
* is named bob le moche*
*has to defend only people who can tolerate him on twitter*
*is a insufferable human being*

Man, being an adult sounds cool.

Nobody cares about games "journalism" because it's loving garbage, and the fact someone can gently caress their way to good reviews is part of that.
