I'm just going to crow a little about how badly Vic got owned in court and how all the morons stanning for him turned out to completely full of poo poo.

Including, somehow, a goon on the first page of this thread.

Also Gone Home was good, the more recent generation of walking sims like that, Edith Finch, Ethan Carter, Soma, Tacoma, were far more enjoyable than the earlier generation of such games like Dear Esther.

I'm pretty sure Dear Esther didn't have an insane backlash against it though, back then gamers were trying to prove that the medium could match against Ebert's assertion that games weren't art.

Why am I not surprised that the GBS who came in to concern troll about those nasty antifa also turned out to be a gamergate moron as well

It's odd because setting up a multiracial empire is extremely easy and can power you up very quickly. It's messy but it's micromanagement light and you simply allow the chips to fall where you may. But you can also set up a Perfect Monoracial Empire where everyone knows their place and you murder any undesirable you choose. In short, Stellaris is a perfectly Enlightened Centrist Game.

i mean the fact is even if the girls were 18 he's still a creepy weirdo. not just because macking on 18 year old fans as a married dude in your 30s is creepy as poo poo, but because the way he was going about it was creepy as poo poo. the entire tumblr sexring consisted of giant speeches about how 'sex positive this space is' and how 'we're exploring ourselves,' it was the most obviously manipulative poo poo in the world. just say you wanna gently caress and ask if any girls wanna see your cock + balls like a normal person, goddamn.

honestly that sounds like they're reproducing the social dynamics of the free love hippy movement, filtered through modernity

I remember reading a Harlan Ellison short story collection about how he ran with teenage street gangs in NY and it still feels like a huge pile of a stdh.txt

I'm not sure how best to describe Warframe's pay-to-win model, yes you can pay directly for power, but all the paid options are horrifically inefficient values, and feel much more like trap options for nailing people with very poor self control.

Like in a comparison between a veteran player with high game knowledge and little RMT cash, and a novice player with little game knowledge and alot of RMT cash, the former will completely trounce the latter at all levels of power.

i mean if he really wanted to he could have put forth his dumbshit opinions anonymously on something like /v/, but he was insecure in his status in the indie gaming industry and just had to attach his name to it

Well I don't think the accusation against Ellison was ever concocted by his political enemies, because by the time they were made, Obama and Dershowitz had already ratfucked him out of his running for DNC chair.

Mandalore was pretty pro-BLM on twitter and that's a decent bellwether on whether someone isn't a total piece of poo poo.

At least Mignogna was completely checked out of his SLAPP lawsuit, he had a media-savvy operator who organized donations and handed the entire case to him gift-wrapped, all he had to do was sign here, on the form. Don't you worry your pretty little head Mr Vic. The millions of people who stand with Vic will take care of it for you.

Then he got blown the gently caress out. This one seems like a sick joke in comparison, now the Dunning Krueger victim is taking a personal interest in his lawsuit, and thinks all his arguments that land like roundhouse kicks in the medium of substack will hold up in front of a Judge and the opposing counsel.
