The great GamerGate discussion. (Stuff and things)

@Cyborg_pony  
The worst we can do to them is just overriding them and carry on as usual. Hold your ground and don’t let them get an inch.

Been awhile, how’s the state of things here?

@Havock  
Meh.

How does it feel knowing that, in hindsight, some of the most prominent anti-GG voices weren’t (and still aren’t) invested in the medium to begin with?
 

 
What gets me is how they never stated that they weren’t really invested in gaming when GG began. They all pretended that they “cared about gaming too.”

@Ebalosus  
Unsurprised.
 
Nearly apathetic.

@Ebalosus  
Like a leech looking for the next big belly.

@Ebalosus  
Thats a big part of the reason GG happened. SJWs use games and other entertainment as a political platform. They dont give a shit about the games themselves.

@silbasa  
And why it continues in other area including gaming.
 
Although, GG is a dead movement they still need as a boogeyman.

Many people online have a tract they feel the need to bring out at every opportunity they can. The most common one is politics, and in the past, it was religion. That’s why internet fora would always ban those topics, except in separate parts specifically for those things, because if you don’t deal with them somehow, they will overtake everything. The big social media sites didn’t feel the need to have safeguards against these things*, and are being shitted up for it.
 
*Reddit is an exception. They had a wonderful idea that each topic of discussion could have its own separate subreddit, so people could find a place to post anything, rather than posting anything in one place. Lack of moderation has caused this idea to fail in many subreddits, but since Reddit put the job of moderation in the hands of its users, I don’t blade Reddit for this failure. At least, until they did start moderating, in a very partisan way, just like the other social media websites. Yay.

@Plain Pony  
I think you raise a pretty good point here. Not sure one that I entirely agree with but I think you are correct in essence.
 
@Ebalosus  
Is he actually pro hedge fund?

How many of you would be surprised if I told you resetERA wasn’t happy with Mass Effect: Cash-in didn’t have enough censorship.

@Cyborg_pony  
ResetEra is essentially just the alt-left verison of media watchdogs.

@Cyborg_pony  
Its funny how they are censoring it but not fixing the dogshit ending. :D SJW-ism is more important.

@silbasa  
Honestly, if anyone bought that after all the crap Bioware’s put out, they deserve to lose money.

@Cyborg_pony  
The studio is sadly dead, yes. All the people that made it good have left years ago.

@doloresbridge  
Allow me to demonstrate!
 
 
@Cyborg_pony  
Remasters continue to be worse than their originals. It would have been much easier not to change anything, but they had to prevent anyone from getting the intended experience, because they were afraid the people of today would not like it. Well, if you believe that the game you’re remastering wouldn’t fly with today’s crowd, don’t remaster it. Don’t try and have the good of the original while conveniently ignoring the bad (or “bad” in this case). The bad is part of the experience, and that experience is what let the thing become popular in the first place.

@Plain Pony  
Or alternatively, just fix the things that people unanimously agree were trash (i.e. ME3’s ending).
 
But instead they change things that a vocal minority wanted gone, and then paint those who didn’t want the change as “sexist and misogynistic incels.”

@Ebalosus  
Why would MovieBob even care about Gamergate? He doesn’t even play games.

@Scrabbleman  
It was when, like most of antis. He was most relevant then.
 
I suspect his Game overeater (because he sure didn’t think much) was to catch the fad of the salty reviewer trend and like many of them stopped all together.

@Scrabbleman  
I imagine that he used to play them, but stopped because games today are different to the ones he likes. Knowing what I do about how he thinks of the games he does like… I feel that he doesn’t care about games at all, and likes the games he does for other reasons. But it makes a lot of sense to criticize games for not being the way you want them.
 
That said, it should be clear at this point that he does not like games anymore, and while there’s certainly room for complaining that you don’t like the popular things, doing it constantly, insulting those who do like the popular things, and trying to claim the moral high ground while doing so, is, dare I say it, entitled.

@Plain Pony  
Which is funny, since he use to love Nintendo, which would probably he stopped talking about Games since they didn’t adhere to his CONSOOMER mindset of putting his politics above all else and stopped talking about games all together. EXPECT for Last of Us 2 and looking at that, it’s not wonder he talked about it- it’s also pretty much like most Sony games, and interactive movie.

Gina Carano fired from the Mandalorian for having an opinion on twitter. SJW mob finally got her fired :(

@silbasa  
The opinion being that being a modern Republican is like being Jewish during the holocaust,she also Make fun of mask wearing And also being one of the people claiming the election was rigged with no evidence

@Penguin Dragneel  
Yeah. This made me angry.
