wasn't there supposed to be a large protest at that gaming con this weekend?

So far no sign of it at PAX. That said, 4chan pulled the plug on that idea and instead urged their members to be calm and not act up at PAX, instead email advertisers of the lovely gaming journalism websites. Apparently that's working and advertisers are getting pissed. Or so I hear.

Again hilarious that thusfar, 4chan seems to be the most cool headed and adult in this whole clusterfuck.

"Life unworthy of life" (German: Lebensunwertes Leben) is a pragmatic liberal designation for the segments of the populace which they view as having no right to continue existing, due to the expense of extending them basic human dignity.

The Brown Menace posted:

i mean seriously, just wrap your head around this.

iran, the loving nexus of absolute evil as far as gullible westerners are concerned, allows people to be transgender, up to and including the right to marry, officially, after they had sex-reassignment surgery

meanwhile in the kingdom of saudi arabia, an entire class of schoolgirls was left to perish in a fire because all firefighters on the scene were male

your tax dollars support the latter

you are quiet about this

you pretend you care about feminism and gender equality

keep tweeting about tit armors, you idiots

This is the worst kind of burn.

Like when is the last time someone made fun of a Brony by saying Breaking Bad was on and a better show, instead of making fun of them for being autistic shut-in borderline pedophiles. Long-winded internet arguments about the sexism of only having male heads impaled on sticks in a video game don't need to be compared to clit-cutting for any normal person to realize it's an insane thing to care about. And since when did you need to march with planned parenthood to make fun of idiots on the internet.

It's not hard when the organizers of gaming blogosphere are just having a big fat meltdown: worship our agenda or else. Or else what? You'll dry the internet up into a boring husk where only old maids chat?

I mean they can go at it but it sure won't change a 15-year-old boy on 4chan into some robot, or a 30-year-old goon into an activist slogan spouting drone.

I don't usually like indiegogo compared to Kickstarter but I threw some in anyway when this was originally posted earlier in the saga. Afterlife Empire is extremely my poo poo since Ghost Master 2 will never happen.

I wish there was a bit more discussion of how they want to get the young developers involved, because yeah they are basically stuck in the same "ideas" phase that Zoe Quinn existed in and getting them involved throughout the process of actually creating the game would be key to helping them (especially if all could be involved, even the ones who don't get picked).

The fact that the company in question is in Colombia (so I don't exactly know how these Fine Young Capitalists are gonna be participating with any ease) and itself doesn't have a large amount of experience with video game design I think is a mistake, but it's still a worthwhile project.

usual internet poo poo :shobon:

my opinion based on professionally not-reading this thread is that zoe quinn probably did jerk stuff to her ex, dickheads blew it up into some vast journalist conspiracy for not reporting on relationship issues (esp. since the claim of nepotism involved a person who didn't review her game, didn't suggest it to any of the other reviewers, and entered a relationship/hosed later after she had the job and poo poo, even if you believe that chatlogs are proof enough the original claim was hilariously shaky at best), and people decided from those dickwads that people are just being lovely to women in videogame stuff (like usual), even though in this case she was indeed a jerk who was terrible to other feminist stuff

now zoe quinn is going to make mad bank off of being a terrible partner + people overreacting in a lovely way due to finally having a chance to sock it to them feminizts


also theres some indiegogo about ghost businesses somewhere in there, its not terribly interesting
