I saw Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian brutally kick a defenseless gamer in the elevator today.

In the end, the journalists will manage to convince the general public that they're really just innocent victims fighting against sexism, before going back to the same routine of coercing developers to make their games fit their sensibilities while shaming devs who don't

The 4chan people will begrudgingly buy it, your patreon will be maxed out and you'll have an army of SJ warriors/concubines to fulfill your every whim.

The discussion and controversy hasn't gone away, the main gamer mags have begun to buckle here and there, and the weight of evidence is against the SJW. This might be the initial outcome, but the tide is definitely turning against them. Plus there's the point that these people clearly aren't all that bright because if they were they wouldn't have tried the "death to gamers" stunt. Odds are they'll gently caress up again.

I've only read the first 280 pages or so of this thread, however I think that is enough to make a suggestion that could solve this issue and a whole bunch of others: 1) delete everything on the internet 2) turn off the internet for a year You can thank me later for this great idea (in a year or so).

Is any chance real financial damage could be done to the gaming press? I'm assuming the web traffic numbers we saw earlier don't exclude the people with adblock installed.

Advertisers are telling them to shut the gently caress up or they'll stop buying adspace So it's possible, if they keep pushing in the way they have been, which is shouting that people who play games are Hitler

I have maybe 800 games from the 80s in a box. Most of them for the Commodore64 and a few for MSX. I have not played them, and I don't plan to play them. Looking back, all videogames you buy are pure expense, zero inversion. Even the videogames you are enjoying are probably not very good. In a few years, once the "fresh smell" dies and you where able to have a objective opinion purelly on the game alone, you will conclude that most games are not very good. If game journalist where good, they would use the 1-3 scale. Few games will score more than 3, and games scoring more than 5 will be only one in a 10 years.

Whatever happened to treating people nice and having manners. Why did life get so complicated for these folks? Is it honestly extreme political correctness paired with mental illness? Or did they just not learn manners and thus have to invent all this special snowflaky poo poo up? This is exactly why attachment/helicopter parenting doesnt work. These people have never had to cope with things being different.

Is the next step to keep fanning the flames to tell video games journalism to fight against their advertisers because renegging on their Gamer+Gate campaign is another form of corruption?
