i don't know how anyone would think that somebody who put magnets in their fingers and injected a chip with Steam codes for Deus Ex into their hand could possibly be unstable.

It might be disappointing to know people are fine with being blatantly corrupt for hundreds of thousands of dollars, and yet at the same time hilarious that some of the same people are also fine with being blatantly corrupt for a listless handjob and a six pack of PBR.

I remember in the Giant Bomb thread, when they ran articles about her putting that stupid RFID chip in her hand, they defended her hardcore, like "body mods are cool" and "she's not crazy, obviously she had someone with experience do this for her." then she puts up youtube videos and she's just jamming a big-rear end needle in her hand at her computer desk. sure, purple hair, likes jamming stuff in her body (i know, too easy), compulsive liar, married to get citizenship, lets multiple dudes at once think she's monogamous with them and don't need protection, lying about getting std tests, maybe only one or two of these things by themselves don't indicate a horrible person, but she totally fills the bingo card. if she was just some random tumblrite and not "a game developer" the only attention she'd ever get was mockery.

Vag Assault Weapon posted:I think it'd be a shorter list to list places that aren't controlled by SJWs these days, at least major sites that don't require authenticating accounts. Even GBS was a haven for them for what, 6-8 years? When the original blog came out about this bullshit, it came up in GBS, the Giant Bomb thread in RGD (the podcast forum) because Patrick Klepek tried to shove Quinn down people's throats on that site, and in the gamers.txt thread in games. the guy that wrote that blog posted in GBS about it and that got gassed. the moderator in RGD showed up fairly quickly saying "You're not allowed to discuss this". gamers.txt is an anything goes thread, if somebody had made a standalone thread in Games about it it probably would have been gassed. It was probably kind of a fluke that this thread got going. e: oh yeah, that's right, the gibbis thread didn't just get gassed, it was moved to the mod forum.

Dan wrote four books, one of which was done solely to troll Jose Canseco. His face was scanned into LA Noire. He moved to California and discovered that while he had kept all his past paperwork including 9th grade report cards, he did not have his car title because he did not know what a car title was or why you would need one.

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.

The Brown Menace posted:perhaps thinking for like 2 seconds how a "game" which has been widely derided as a walking simulator and a non-game and which can be completed, without any glitches or tricks, in a short enough span of time for the whole playthrough to fit into a 4 mb .gif managed to get a 10/10 would also work https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9qlm8olmn0 47 second speedrun. this spoils the plot, which is that you came home, nobody was there, and your sister ran away. 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.

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!

that TFYC video includes more effort than Zoe's sum total of creative work so far, and I'm being generous and including the Vines of her firedancing and the YouTubes where she self-harms oops I mean installs cybernetic modifications. I'm probably just jealous, though, whereas mortals have to touch the screen of their phone to start Twitter, she can wave her hand around near it for about ten seconds until it finally works.

You could probably create a robot that uses Microsoft Sam's voice upped an octave or two that just reads TV tropes while gently caress VIDEO GAMES flashes in the background to get the message across better. She would have to have some kind of interest in the topic whatsoever to do that, though.

Vag Assault Weapon posted:No, this is just something she and her stupid friends are trying to take credit for. Every other story posted about it is that literally every single person there realized it was some huge catastrophe and they all walked. Yeah, but how many articles were actually published about that thing? The big one was written by a guy she banged, and sources for the article were Zoe, another guy she banged, and one of her friends. That article blamed everything that went wrong on some oppressive shitlord wearing a fedora that worked for the company because that's totally what happens in TV, a glorified PA gets to run everything into the ground. Also the article went live the same day the Rebel Game Jam that goes straight to her PayPal was announced, she was pretty prescient to set that up right beforehand. Oh wait it's blatant collusion because that article mentions Rebel Game Jam and is basically "outraged by this horrible treatment of our noble female devs? donate here" Forums Barber fucked around with this message at 10:20 on Aug 28, 2014 |
