>It’s a bittersweet moment, bidding farewell to this series. It’s definitely time for it to be over, time for Feminist Frequency as an organization and for me personally to move on. But I keep thinking about all the ways that the world of video games has changed since that day, almost five years ago, when I first took my modest little Kickstarter live. It hasn’t all been for the better, but some of it definitely has. There are conversations happening now, among players and among creators, that weren’t happening before, about who games are for (everyone!), about what impact they can have, what they can tell us about humanity, empathy, race, gender, sexuality, the world we live in, and the world we want to create for ourselves.

Lol but it didn't actually rock the world of gaming.
>>
>>136710
That article says it did so it must be true.
>>
>>136694
All she did is applying gender studies to gaming.

It's the harassment and ridicule from conservatives (especially the MRA) that brought her to fame.
>>
>>136725
It's shitty clickbait articles like OPs that brought her fame. 99.999% of conservatives don't know or care who she is.
>>
>>136694
Fuck everyone from two years ago.
>>
>>136726
Get real. Conservatives are the only ones who care who she is.
>>
>>136735
Keep telling yourself that, bud.
>>
>>136737
I'm telling you that. Follow the conversation.
>>
>>136725
You can apply gender studies to anything. That doesn't make it worth while.
>>
>>136743
She didn't even play the games.

I still remember this time where she was talking about Hitman Absolution and insisted it "rewarded you" for killing strippers while footage was playing showing the game actively punishing you for doing that.

I don't know how she didn't lose all her viewership after something like that. I have to assume the people who watch her are other people who don't play games but enjoy getting angry about stuff.
>>
Every time you don't mention her name she gets weaker.
>>
>>136786
Apparently she straight up searches for mentions of her name on the internet so she can reply to them. One time this CafeDX guy on Twitter made an offhand comment about his mother having watched her, and she replied. What's funny is if she had bothered to look at who she was responding to she would have seen he was the translator for Euphoria, a porn game with all sorts of sick and twisted shit that is HIGHLY degrading to women. It would have been the perfect thing for her to mount a campaign against but since she only works on a surface-level she missed a golden opportunity. And possibly golden showers. Point is, her half-assed "journalism" is why she'll never have any real impact on gaming and why she's finally giving up and moving on to politics or some shit, which is a very easy target right now.
>>
>>136735
Then who donated all the money to her?
>>
>>136791
Conservatives, you idiot.
>>
>>136785
The Bayonetta episode was the absolute worst. Throughout every other game she complained about not having a strong female lead and then complains that Bayonetta is not exactly what she wanted. Her arguments about the story are hilariously wrong for anyone who played the game. The funniest of all was her attack on the designers for being sexist despite the lead designer being a woman who wanted to portray a strong, independent, sexually secure woman who kicks ass.
>>
>>136694
Who want to bet that "Need More Gay" exist because of her.
>>
>>136785
A fool and his money are soon parted.
>>
>>136734
Basically, fuck JonTron and all of the Gamergate supporters.
>>
>>136694

Damn, Tropes vs. Video Games was pretty good...well, hopefully she has a segment on her new show where they discuss video games too
>>
>>136694
and nothing of value was lost...
>>
>>136831
I think it was inspired by Tropes vs. Women attempt to challenge the status quo.
>>
>>136941
Status quo as in natural state of being lol
>>
>>136789
She's probably the one who keeps necrobumping this thread.
>>
>>136694
literally who?
>>
Did she even do the amount of episodes she promised?
>>
>>136793
She apparently did that kind of thing all the time. She demands something, the game has it, and she says "No that's not what I meant" because she has to find an excuse to complain about something.
>>
Unfortunately she's already moving on to her next show.
>>
>>137039
Without that annoying Boyfriend of hers.

He should've join the "Need more Gay" to kill all stereotypes.
>>
>>137140
Is that piece of shit still around? I had forgotten about him.

I also thought it was funny that he was feeding her most of the lines while trying to seem like a strong independent woman.
>>
>>137151
Milo? Unfortunately he is arguably even more prominent than her. Getting banned from Twitter somehow made him even more annoying.
>>
>>137912
No.
Jonathan Macintosh.
>>
>>137931
Don't know who that is but based on that name he's probably unimportant.
>>
I think all this did was push normally apolitical nerds to the right.
