Kotaku is nothing but a disgustingly slow assembly line that has not even a semblance of order to it. You can literally throw any pile of slop up onto it and a big stamp with "approved" will come down and make it so.

"Hey Patricia, we need clicks this week. Chop chop!"

"UUUH okay. Let's see. Oh I've got some great ideas! 'Wow lol this rock kind of looks like a metroid don't you think?', 'Someone told me to get better after I went 0-11 in halo I WAS RAPED!', 'Videogame cleavage and how it demeans every woman everywhere.'"

"Good job Pat. Here's your weeks supply of double-cheeseburgers."

I hope this becomes a thing, when somebody shits themselves publicly and refuses to back down even though they are clearly in the wrong on an issue; it becomes the Zoe Quinn Move.

Like the Streisand Effect.

That way no matter what else she does this will be the thing everybody remembers the most while social media remains relevant.
Sadly it looks like the reporting is still just going in lockstep with "Any complaint against this person is rooted in misogyny" and I have a feeling after the storm dies down that will be the only thing most people remember about the incident. Give it a few months and it will be brought up along with Anita's claim to fame as an example of the internet being full of unrepentant woman haters.

I think the saddest part about this is that there was an amazing opportunity to shut down a lot of complaints about online feminism being full of double standards and being frequently used as a means to silence discourse over topics by just labeling the opposing side as bigots, but instead there's tons of manchildren everywhere who will feel vindicated in this case being a perfect example of it doing just that. Like all anyone had to do was take the case where internet famous woman emotionally and sexually abused their partner and write about it, but instead we have article after article from the exact same people that reported on the cards against humanity guy trying to label the victim as the harasser here.

Patricia Hernandez wrote an article about something I did one time. She stole a bunch of pictures of me from Facebook and my local newspaper, still with watermarks on them. A month later she did a follow up where she stole a bunch of my answers from a Reddit AMA. She's complete poo poo.

Do you have the name of the article? This is actual stuff to get her fired.

You sometimes get the odd Japanese flag on boards that have flags. Whether or not they're using proxies, it'd be unsuccessful if the japanese ip was blocked.

/sp/ has some screen caps of a Japanese poster who randomly comes in with some hilarious quips.

e: This could have happened after the ip ban, I'm not sure.

Interviewer: Zoe, how do you respond to the allegations of your instigation on the claimed attacks against your character?
Zoe: I'm sorry, but I thought this was an interview for a video game website. Shouldn't you be asking me about my video game?
Interviewer: Of course, but this is a topic that concerns the integrity of the video game industry and the possible corruption of the struggle for greenlighting independent titles.
Zoe: Look, we're not going to discuss this. I really just want to talk about my upcoming release of Depression Quest: Gold Edition. Oh, and also let everybody know that they should donate to my Patreon.
Interviewer: Yeah, about that. What exactly does your Patreon money go towards?
Zoe: This interview is over. Please erase the video as I do not consent to this being aired.
Interviewer: Zoe, this is a live stream broadcast.

I encourage children who are bullied to kill themselves. In fact, I get off to it. Pedophilia-snuff films are the best. More abused children need to kill themselves.
So I guess the main thing to come out of this is that if lady ~indie game devs~ are as abhorrent, greasy and lacking in talent as this piece of poo poo then maybe it's just better if it gets left to men?

I can assure you old Atari games took a ton of effort and skills to develop. Pretty sure they were made in assembly.

Anyone here could re-make Depression Quest within 10 minutes or less using Twine. It's basically just a web interface where you drag/drop text panels on a grid and draw connections between them (CYOA style).

Couldn't you do the same thing in powerpoint by hyperlinking a bunch of slides to eachother?

Not all women.

Just the ones with a shaky grasp on mental illness, egomania, integrity issues and a bizarrely powerful cult of personality surrounding them.

Well not really but as someone with a vagina, I just wish she'd just shut the gently caress up and stop banging on about feminism when she can't even behave like a normal human.
