The Gamecube controller is a piece of poo poo and it's irresponsible for Nintendo to keep rereleaseing it because of how badly it fucks up people's hands.

All my friends are super intersted in Anthem and I don't know why :(

Almost none of them were interested in Mario Odyssey and in fact I don't think a single one of them has played it. I think all my friends need lobotomies

Phil Fish is my go-to for bad Dev. The closer you are to acting like him on Twitter the worse you are. Kamiya is an example of being super close to Fish in terms of Twitter engagement.

I don't think her being a woman had anything to do with it this time tbh. if anything it should be framed as a workers rights issue, if they were unionized she'd still have her job

it absolutely is a worker's rights issue but lol if you think this isn't about her being a woman who stands up for herself

Her being a woman is definitely what caused to blow up into a bigger issue but the entire situation still could of been prevented if she didn't use her public social media platform as a place to vent.

I really don't see the issue about her posts! They're just loving posts!!!!

This is not the case, her entire social media history was combed over by reddit, emailled to her boss, creating a campaign to get her fired.

Telling an active community member to gently caress off for responding to your rant is not a good look.

EDIT: This is why twitter is stupid. Its simultaneously treated as a private internet space and a place for public discourse. People stop trying to separate these two things and you end up with this.

Yeah there literally is. Twitter is a social media platform and if you attach your job and company to a profile you are going to be expected to uphold the standards of that company. This is not a shocking revelation.


Most companies are not happy when you tell customers to gently caress off.

Why should anyone give a gently caress about companies you lunatic.

Kotaku has a rundown with some quotes from Price

quote:

“[CEO Mike O’Brien] told me I was going to look back and regret this because we were doing amazing work and I ruined it,” Price said. “The only regrets I’ve ever had, however, have been in situations where I didn’t stand up for myself, not ones in which I did, and I don’t expect that to change any time soon. My only real regret here is that I encouraged other women to come on board and promised them it was a safe company for them.”

Also the guy she tweeted at wasn't just a total random, he's partnered with the company to promote the game. Not hard to imagine some marketing guy's head exploding about it
