DrManiac posted:Yeah, it was Jeff Gerstman who later went on to make giantbomb which is probably one of the most trustworthy game sites out there. patrick pushed zoe down everybody's throats, but considering there's a Chrome extension to remove his articles from the site entirely it seems he's not exactly a selling point for giant bomb. generally they have the sense to say things like "we know these developers personally and are covering them because of that" which is a lot better than pretending otherwise.

Has anyone considered contacting Anita or other prominent e-feminists over the issue? It really seems like the perfect opportunity to distance themselves from what is almost a perfect characture of the straw feminist mras get so riled up about.

When a poc tumblr woman is going against Zoe for being misogynist you have to laugh your rear end off. http://acesrhigh.tumblr.com/post/95813220683/nope-im-done-too-far-zoe-quinn-and-anita-sarkeesian also includes Gail Simone removing a post to the game jam thing for women because someone told her "Zoe and Anita don't approve" and the guy who said Zoe attackers are worse than ISIS.

This is more a case of "critical darling which is not well loved by the public" which comes up time and time again in any media without the need for accusations of nepotism, just of critics being out of touch or having different tastes than the general public. what's Eurogamer like as a site, in terms of integrity? I know a guy who used to write for them and he seems pretty cool and non-twatty

It does skip the EXCITING PLOT TWIST that the person your sister ran away from home with is her lesbian girlfriend. 10/10 still a better game than Depression Quest, which as somebody said if you printscreened every page and stapled them together would lose no gameplay elements.

I mean, not everyone has to enjoy interactive storytelling as a medium, but this video kinda deliberately misses the point.

The Youtube description sums it up pretty well -- they say, yeah, this is a pretty good 2-3 hour interactive experience of looking at prettily lit rooms and reading journals, but is that a 10/10 go spend $20 on this right now game? Well, if your buddies wrote it, then hell yeah!
