That's more or less true to varying degrees everywhere now, really.




BTW Sargon of Akkad is having a conversation with @AdamBaldwin at 9pm British time today.

#gamergate news:

If my information is correct, deepfreeze.It had successful funds raised and thus will have a small add campaign.

(Also, liberal lunacys charity paid off and her stairlift has been installed)

a former SJW and recent gg supporter claims E3 is gg's chance

On that subject, tomorrow a thunderclap will take place (basically if you support a certain thunderclap, all supporters will post a fixed message at a fixed moment to generate attention).

In general news:

E3:

Anita and josh are not amused by the fact DOOM4 will feature heavy violence & gore and said "saying it's to be expected from doom is not an excuse". (?!? what did they expect? Summer tea time with rabid hellspawn from space?)

Neither are they glad fallout4 puts quite some focus on combat (equal to previous fallouts). They liked the crafting options but "it's to bad a lot of your crafting is to kill things" (well I myself don't want to have deathclaws in my self made village without having decent guns sooo...).

I myself have had my skepticism torpedoed by fallout4's presentation. I am actually really hyped now.

Anita would have like dishonored 2 to feature EXCLUSIVELY a female lead, and not a choice between Corvo and Emily like it's announced now (really, not being exclusively female is bad? Also, some SJW predicted butthurt from gg over Emily being an option as a female lead, gg however seemed to like the option of choice).

games should just drop violence if it wants to "mature" (Although we all know only kids want to grow up, actual adults usually want back)
(yes this is all real)

These kind of ridiculous statements have resulted in a small backlash as some followers of Anita for a moment believed they were actually following a parody account. So yeah.

not E3:

A game dev of a not so good game (putting that mildly) has had a massive meltdown. I dare say we have not witnessed a meltdown of this caliber since Phil "such my dick and choke on it" Fish.
The current status of the games website tells all you need to know about this.

Fun to see how Anita and Muckintosh gradually shifted their outrage focus to violence as well. If it was possible, this is a symbol of them selling out even more to the coke-induced screams of the mainstream media.

I would guess it was always their plan, deep inside they only want to make video games as bland as possible.

Steam really needs to be more strict on publishers/developers as to what they do with pricing on Steam right before a sale.
(After all, it's the retailer that takes the hit if a fine is handed out.)
[Not to mention it's just a shitty thing to do to customers.]

I know Valve's already been warned by the Advertising Standards Agency in the past. Not sure if other nations and their respective entities have given similar warnings, but it can't be that unlikely.

(Also, uh, I'm not sure who's being compared to whom.. but the USA does not have excellent consumer protection.
It has terrible consumer protections. Like, pitiful compared to such bastions of liberty and freedom as New Zealand.)

When you compare it to Mexico and other third world countries USA is doing great on nearly everything, yet first world countries have the most whyny people.

Yes, Steam is selling GTAV with online passes or whatever as a bundle for $60+$20($40+$20 for me) and then discounting the thing so it costs around ~$2-3 less. So to everyone who added it on their wishlist, its on sale, and to everyone viewing the Steam frontpage also, its on sale, but the base game without online passes still costs the same. But the price being displayed everywhere is the bundle price which shows up as discounted. Essentially they're giving away an online pass for GT:Online wallet along with a GTAV that costs $2-2 lesser. So they're being advertised as on sale but they actually just made it into a bundle with useless stuff since I hear the online is rife with hackers.
Remember this is all on top of Steam+Rockstar Social Club double DRM.

Women Actio nMeid aconfirms #GG is not harassment : http://blogjob.com/oneangrygamer/2015/05/gamergate-isnt-a-harassment-campaign-states-wam-report/

well Totalbiscuit is having none of that shit

Still paying back for my sub and disabling adblock. Also, did anyone else notice he still says FF was trying to promote gender equality and diversity? 11

I've been wondering, you might be able to answer for me, are these guys actually getting $7,700 per month to make this or do they only receive it if they hit the first milestone of $25k per month (which seems like a weird milestone given it looks like they have made a lot of the film already)?

Patreon is baffling. :-\

It's a modern digital version of the old Roman patron system that goes back to before Jesus and his angels rode dinosaurs into battle against Satan, which is indeed a very long time ago.

They say all roads lead to Rome. Certainly the ones paved with money do.

You got some good sh*t huh?
