>>380612332
They are.

>>380612332
You speak as if they're trying to stop the game from getting released. They're just doing the same "Don't buy this shit from this asshole because of his political views" the same way faggots over here did to Gone Home

>>380612462
Then why were they pestering Microsoft and Raw Fury trying to get them to drop the game's creator?

>>380612571
They appealed directly to the publisher of the game trying to get the guy fired.

>>380612382
I don't. He submitted to obese purple hair bullies.

>>380612709
I hope they don't succeed

>>380612382
Yeah my leftie friends seem pretty ready to drop him from the get go, I tried arguing with them but they seem to think that he made the game with the intention of making feminists and a society where people don't have to work look like bad ideas, and despite it being a good narrative for a video game (the world where people don't need to work, not the feminism bit I've not seen any signs of that in the game) they seem to say no matter what it reflects his beliefs and they're just being really bias and saying that makes a shit story.
Meanwhile the opposite side and also condemning him, cause he apollogised and because he's an indie dev, which they seem to inherently hate on principle these days.

Feel bad for the guy, hope all this political agenda pushing doesn't ruin him being caught in the middle of it all.

He did right in apologizing and dissociating himself from the GamerGate meme.
He also did right in not bowing down to the feminist overlords by donating to a feminist charity, like they told him to do if he wants forgiveness.

He never said the words feminism, which is what they demand of him.

>>380613440
If you read his tweets they are totally reasonable too. He was just standing up for the elements of GG that were about journalistic integrity in the industry and condemned journalists that labelled everyone who plays videogames to be white neckbeard sexist harassers because of the actions of a few. The same defence people make when people attack all muslims for the actions of terrorists.

>>380614089
Well, yeah. Calling Zoe Quinn a stupid whore was what we were doing, but when I speak of GamerGate, I speak of what it became within days as people started rallying up around it and trying to make a movement about "ethics in journalism" out of it.

>>380614118

>bitch

The Social Justice crowd was slowly but surely taking over every single aspect of video games, from development to publishing to reporting. Equity and Intersectionality are lies and absolutely cancerous concepts, and to allow a clique to establish a zeitgeist over an entire industry based upon those values is negligent at best, outright suicide at worst. I'll agree it got pretty fucking gay at times, but it was absolutely necessary and it had to happen.

I don't. Understandable he wants to remain as drama-free as possible under Microsofts heel. And nothing in the game itself has changed given it was never about GG in the first place.

I don't really get why SJWs are so angry about the universal income-future scenario either. Universal Income is not advertised as some world-saving grace that we just didn't figure out before, its advertised as a necessary evil in modern times where industry- and retail work are starting to disappear.

So Last Night's scenario is quite accurate in a way. In the future basic income may become a thing to make sure poor folks will be docile because they can afford their rent and food while still being poor, while the rich still keep getting richer.

>>380614581

Why is the indie scene so self destructive? They just make themselves look like jealous arse-holes. Luckily most of the normie world seems like it couldn't give two tenths of a fuck.

>>380613968
I'm glad they got got kicked off of /v/ because this is not the place to organize that kind of thing. But what it was about was gaming journalists taking bribes, both sexual and monetary to compromise their reviews and articles. They took them from companies through ad space and from a mutual desire to push a certain political agenda from certain indie devs.

In the end it did succeed. Because you'd be hard pressed to find anyone that actually trusts game reviews anymore. Even in Facebook and YouTube comments people joke about stupid IGN reviews like the "too much water" incident. Really they won when that ridiculous Law & Order episode was aired and portrayed them as some kind of gaming ISIS. It exposed how ridiculous the PC side of the argument had gotten and everyone made fun of it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Man1oy4Xh_0

Yes you do, its called "3rd world country sweatshops.", who do that industry work for you these days.

What makes universal income appealing is the fact you generally get the same amount of money you already do from welfare, difference is theres no earning bureaucracy tied to it, so you can afford to try and establish a small business of your own, or work part-time or part-time hours that companies really like to do these days, without the fear of losing your house.

Thats what Universal Income is, its Welfare minus bureaucracy.

Problem is, producers are fucking idiots terrified of the idea of losing even a single sale.

If the leftists and SJWs scream loudly enough, the producer always caves, afraid of losing sales otherwise and totally missing the fact that the vapid little shitstains wouldn't buy the game in the first place.

It's like everyone in the fucking industry has forgotten the concept of 'target audience'.

>>380615451
Traditionally it's supposed to be self-policed with trained journalists, editors, ombudsman, etc. That's the traditional news world. We live in the new world where all those people went away and were replaced by barely paid bloggers.

We live in a world where the word "objectivity" is scoffed at as an impossible task for any journalist. Not just in games media, but you even see people like Glen Greenwald say that. Not to say objectivity can ever be achieved, but it is not even attempted, in fact they lean on their personal subjective opinions more than ever without even trying to present a real story.

Opinion and news have effectively merged, again, not just in games. Though I think we say the worst of it in games before we ever saw the cracks in actual news media.

>>380615396
You misunderstand me. I realize that there are tons of people that were sided with GamerGate for admirable reasons (which I agree with), and this developer is almost certainly a part of the group.
However, they were mostly puppets of a war between SJWs and Anti-SJWs that /v/, /pol/ and 8:2x2 chan were leading. There's a reason why Zoe Quinn got a million threads about her shitty free game being publicized by the devs she fucked, but then you have shit like Shadow of Mordor fucking around with brand sponsorship which absolutely no one in gamergate gave a fuck about, because it wasn't about SJWs so it wasn't worth fighting against

Gamergate was the most autistic thing to come out of 4chan since Chanology. You mean to tell me that games journalism is corrupt and flawed?
NO FUCKING SHIT, it's ALWAYS been corrupt and flawed dating back to the days of magazines who accepted publisher gifts and ad money for high scores. Dan Hsu was one of the first to openly say "fuck that" and expose it but nobody cared because surprise, videogames are electronic toys and not a serious medium.

Well its on trial with 2000 people in my country right now. They get 40 euros more than they used to, but with less additional benefits.

Now what makes it different is if they find part-time job or decide to establish a company, that welfare money is not taken away from them. So it creates a huge incentive to be productive as fuck, because the only way you will actually benefit from the universal income-system more than you do from welfare is if you're proactively looking for a job or trying to establish a business of your own. Then that basic income money is that nice little extra on top of everything.

>>380615642

That's not a surprise with how much more work they put into their twitter output and pretty much everything else that isn't actually developing a video game.

From what I can tell, it's less of that aspect and more of the "This is what happens when you let FEMINISTS! make decisions! (I'm an egalitarian that's different)" angle that his tweets had. And nowadays, everyone who made those kinds of tweets have either mellowed out and are embarrassed by them or have an anime profile and think Breitbart is right about everything. He seems to fall into the former category, while the people in the latter category are upset that he isn't one of them.

However, none of what he said in his tweets has anything to do with the game. People just like being mad.

Oh, but not your values and your free speech. We have to silence and blacklist your views because we disagree with them.

>>380616432
let me put it this way.

SJWs believe by giving this game any attention they actually promoting Nazism through "normalization" which is literally no different than actually being a Nazi. By speaking positively about this game you are effectively a Nazi.

SJWs don't like Nazis, they want to punch them in the face.

>>380615918
You are correct. Although I disagree with the notion that attacking Zoe Quinn was the sole objective (or an objective at all), I won't really defend Gamergate as a movement purely focused on defending ethics in journalism -- let's be honest here, it was basically an extension of the centuries old fight between Left and Right wings of politics, although one says that outside of anonymity at their own risk. That said, I stand by my statements: the grip of left-wing ideologues on the industry was reaching endemic and dangerous levels, and the establishment of an all-dictating zeitgest would've been disastrous for everyone.

>>380610346
What does it mean?

Isn't it the opposite? If you can pick and chose who to work with, you must be well off enough that you can be considered to be in a position of privilege. At least, it certainly can't be the other way around, as those with options/opportunity/privilege aren't in a position to pick and chose where their money comes from.

>>380615932
I don't understand what point you're trying to make. You'd rather everyone just ignored the problem and went over their way as things continued to degenerate?

Then aren't they failing themselves? Making tweets about it and long-winded articles is giving the game attention. Just google "Last Night" and see what comes up. Discussion about this game is not being censored.

>By speaking positively about this game you are effectively a Nazi. SJWs don't like Nazis, they want to punch them in the face.

If nothing else, I'm sure you agree with me that that was the case over here on /v/. If we were to go to the archives and search for Zoe Quinn and then search for shady Shadow of Mordor deals, you and I both know what's gonna get most results.

>>380616043

>>380612571
Maybe things have changed, but I don't recall politics being a issue to not buy the game, if anything it was the insertion of it that chapped hides. As I recall the usual argument was something like

>it's a walking sim and the only reason it won any award or that anyone cares about it is because of "muh lesbians".

That strikes me more as derision of politics in games.

You're right that they are injecting their political views in the vidya articles that they publish, but what do you intend on doing to stop them? A few GamerGaters tried to get the sites shut down and losing heavy amounts of money with a blow against their advertising deals. You think that's right? To me that seems like the exact kind of censorship that the more reasonable people in the GamerGate movement are against.

I think people are free to make whatever games they want, regardless of minority representation or whatever. In the end of the day, you and I both are acutely aware that this is just business and all about making cash: if the people behind their marketing teams think that including black protagonists in games will increase their sales, my opinion about this fact can amount to only as much as pure speculation.
With that said, what does worries me is that much like every ideology taken to its logical extensions, Intersectionality demands ever increasingly queer representations in itself -- not because it celebrates diversity, but because it rewrites history in order to destroy the top of whatever hierarchy it aims to attack. To illustrate: that new Uncharted expansion/DLC where you play as the chicks has nothing wrong with it, but to make a new CoD game set on WW2 and to seriously add black females as Wermacht/Waffen SS soldiers is nothing but the worst example of ideological brainwashing; and as far as I can tell, that's not at all a good thing.

>>380617627
Well people asking them to stop that but it just got worse.

GamerGate only became a thing because the discussion around this shit was immediately shut down, deleted and banned outright. It created the largest Streisand effect that I know of.

The core issues around that shit we're never really addressed, and it actively got worse. People doubled down and actively began hiring even more of these people into the industry of the years.

What fucking now? I guess we post on a Burmese weaving forum about it in the hopes if it actually being addressed at a formal level.

GG wasn't trying to point that out; everyone knew that already. It was consumers pushed too far and finally frustrated enough to attack back. GG didn't start because Zoe and what she did with journalists, it was a reaction to the journalists attacking gamers in mass for even questioning it. That's why a bunch of people, who didn't even know who Zoe was or even care about the journalists before, all suddenly jumped in.

I was just a spectator in it all, but yeah, I think once things escalate to that extent, there should be push back by people.

Attempting any level of objectivity when covering games when working in the press is not censorship. If you create a video game website that tries to be 100% objective, that is your right.

Trying to force other sites that don't care about being objective and are proudly subjective to try to be in your standards of objectivity implies some level of censorship, yes. If they don't want to be objective and their audience doesn't want them be objective, how are you going to change them?

Sure, there are still gonna be mega-SJWs that will only be on his side when he literally cuts his dick off and gives it to Empress Zoe Quinn, but there are plenty of people that are somewhere between those two extremes.

The people who we're the people "you'd crack down on" as a boss a media outlet trying to do a good job have since been promoted, and are senior. They've hired new people who agree with them.

It really is, the movement is more or less dead. The only time it gets brought up anymore is when someone tries to blame criticism on the movement or a case like this where someones past is dug into and brought up against them.

How is it any different from SJWs going "We don't want to support this game called Last Night because the developer said things for GamerGate and against Feminism, please blacklist it"?

Industry people whose job it is to cover the industry is not the same as consumers. One is called corruption and the other is called capitalism.

>>380621828
Because they try to get people fired, using their positions in """"""gaming journalism""""" to give it ruinous scores, and otherwise censor it for being """"toxic"""".

/v/ doesn't do that.

"We" want shit games to come out in order to shit on them.

>Muh libertarian vs authoritarian meme
It's literally about the excesses of capitalism, about the dangers of a completely DEREGULATED market, where the government is too weak to prevent corporations taking over and they can get away with anything. Cyberpunk is a libertarian nightmare. Punk, from which the name cyberpunk is derived, is also mostly associated with left wing ideologies.

People that have vidya blogs where they write their opinion pieces are consumers too, as are their audience.

>>380622430
They're saying they're not gonna buy the game because the developer supported GamerGate and they tried to get Microsoft to blacklist it. How is one more underhanded than the other?

>>380622172
>Punk, from which the name cyberpunk is derived, is also mostly associated with left wing ideologies.

No, it's associated with anti-authoritarian ideologies.

I'm looking forward to right-libertarian punk in the coming years, as SJWs have been becoming increasingly fascist in their ideology and tactics.

>>380622693
>People that have vidya blogs where they write their opinion pieces are consumers too, as are their audience.
hilarious

tell me, which outlet do you work for?

>>380621803
Yeah, except for all the people going "gamergate was right" and getting ready to dump all the same talking points all over again. Just because they stopped tweeting the hashtag doesn't mean they're no longer around. Hell, some haven't even stopped tweeting the hashtag. "Gamergate is dead" followed by a bunch of gamergate talking points is about as convincing as "I've never even been to /pol/" followed by a screed about Cultural Marxism.

>>380622648
I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about when GamerGaters were emailing major advertisers saying that they are a shit site that promotes shit leftist views and that they should drop advertising on them.

>>380614849
>Anyone who uses "we" to refer to /v/ as whole is cancer.

Now you can spot the newfag. WE used to wage glorious war with everyone and anyone who slighted us, YOU sit and bitch about the silliest shit, getting blamed for gamergate.

>>380615271

This pretty much, convincing the other side was not a realistic goal to begin with. San Fran hipsters, Kotaku staff and SJWs all have a monetary interest to keep doing the corrupt bullshit they do, they're not going to stop doing it. And what they are doing is not an outright crime either, so theres no way to really stop them from doing it either.

What matters and why GG won was they managed to turn the general opinion against SJWs, well not by themselves but they were one of the building blocks that made mainstream laugh at SJWs just as much as they used to laugh at Furries or Emoes.

https://youtu.be/zLS-npemQYQ

>>380622536
they don't just vote with their wallets instead they try and contact a developer's boss to get them fired, or they give a game bad reviews because of someone's personal politics. They actively try to get people and games cut before they even have a chance to come out.

>>380621928

It's completely true. Vidya bloggers are consumers and have the same rights as consumers that you do. I think you're being very hypocritical.

>>380622823
You mean like 20 articles from almost every gaming site coming out with "gamers are dead" within 48 hours?

>>380622693

>How is one more underhanded than the other?

GG is consumers and customers. SJWs are made of "journalists", industry insiders and PR people. Thats the main difference. Nobody would care about Legobutts rant about Last Night if she wouldnt have a PR company tied to indie video games. If she was just a normal consumer with no relations to video game business other than buying games, then her boycott is fine.

>>380622824
Well I don't agree with those people. Who did it? Do you have the emails?

>>380622118
Are you seriously telling me you'd stop bitching about blacks and gays and bitches and whores if you actually ran a video games blog?

Well, I guess that's more principled than all the video game blogs that sprang up in gamergate's wake which tried to pander to the /v/ crowd

>>380622942
>the SJWs who live in their SF echo chamber are representative of consumers
yeah, no. Don't even try to make that argument. The people who write in games media are _NOT_ representative of any major demographic of gaming. Not the normies, not the hardcore, not /v/, just SF SJW hipsters which represents so few people in reality.

>>380622452
They did have an episode implying that many black people are homosexual. It was the episode about being on the "down-low" and Iced Tea gave exposition about it, before turning away and saying "man, that's what I read..."
I don't know how any of those procedural cop shows kept getting renewed. The stories were always the same, there was no mystery, never any twists or seeing something from the accused's point of view, and we never had a connection to the police officers. The main characters were always stern, heartless drones with a propensity for justice.
I did learn that martial rape was a thing from one episode.

>>380622823
Did they just start posting it or are they posting it in response? You can't claim people won't shut up about X when you're the one that brings up X every time. You really can't complain when every time you bring up X you claim it was a harassment campaign designed to keep women out of gaming.

But anon, their episodes were great, they were pretty stupid and entertaining, dont you remember the GTA one, or the one about a rapist that raped in real life, but also on his second life account.

Not everyone agrees. SJWs don't agree. Kotaku's general audience doesn't agree.

Punk just does whatever people would most commonly find offensive. That's why they sing about taking down the government, and cheating on their woman, and put a naked little girl in a sultry pose on their album covers.Punks """"poltical alignment" is "fuck you".

As for who brought up gamergate, why does it matter? The fact is the guy supported gamergate. If pointing this out leads to a whole bunch of gamergaters jumping to his defence and reiterating what a whore Zoe Quinn is while they're at it, they're obviously still going strong.

I support him. I don't like this logic of "Please, don't apologize, stick with the GamerGate audience. We'll support you just to piss those SJWs off. If you apologize, you're a weak faggot".

What if he grew out of GamerGate and realized that there are problems to that movement? What if he doesn't want to be associated with that shit anymore? Sure, there are still gonna be mega-SJWs that will only be on his side when he literally cuts his dick off and gives it to Empress Zoe Quinn, but there are plenty of people that are somewhere between those two extremes.
