Tuxedo Catfish posted:what's his name It's not Erik Kain although he is OK. Forbes new site is a loving nightmare to navigate, but he was, for a long time, the only video game guy that wasn't a "contributor" before they started that whole system. Now their video game stuff is like 35% Buzzfeed because of their submission system. I will say Erik Kain's article on this mess is probably the only one anyone has written that brings up valid points about the entire industry being basically a giant balancing act of shilldom.

Erik Kain is generally a pretty good writer who has also been on the receiving end of a Ben Kuchera-initiated smear campaign.

Tuxedo Catfish posted:thanks, i didn't expect the mainstream news to pick this up at all but assuming you mean this it's a good article The only real issue is that, as Forbes, they don't have to deal with some of the stuff actual 100% video games focused media outlets have to deal with. Ubisoft locked 1up and EGM out of a bunch of poo poo for poo poo talking their aggressive ad money = good ratings platform, but no one is going to lock loving Forbes out of anything because come on its motherfucking Forbes.

You complain about journalistic integrity and then defend harassment of games developers. Somehow you still haven't put it together how those two divergent directions have almost nothing to do with each other. If you still deny that the proof-of-threats exists, read through the comments on the five guys video. I'm not going to perpetuate doxxing and rape threats.
