Game devs attack youtuber, get sacked.

[BritGHOWParticipant 2566]

Another Sidalpha special popped up in my youtube this morning:

Cliff notes:
Game dev (female) makes a post on her personal twitter bemoaning the difficulties inherent in creating compelling characters for MMORPGs, nothing controversial there.
A youtuber who regularly covers and contributes to the game in question makes a reasoned response suggesting there are alternative avenues she should consider in terms of character design, she gets bent out of shape at him telling her how to do her job, he apologies and leave her to it, a bit douchy on her part but again nothing really controversial.
Then the jackpot, she goes and turns it into a gender politics issue, it’s the life of a female game dev and there are hurt manfeels and she should shouldn’t have to put up with manspreading in her personal space blah blah blah, in this she was also defending by a mangina by the name of Peter Fries who willingly lept to her defence once the backlash started.
They were both sacked.

Which has of course kicked even more controversy but in my opinion is indeed the correct move for two reasons.

1. This is one of the many c~~~s that danced over totalbiscuit’s grave when he died of cancer because he hurt their precious feels, someone who does thsat has no right to get bent out of shape when she gets an answer she doesn’t like to a question asked on a public forum.
2. There are numerous examples of people who have been sacked simply for stating opinions and even empirical truths in manners in no way related to their employment or employer, those people have been traced back to their employer and said employer hounded to sack them, this c~~~ did it in an open forum in threads she started based around her (now former) job.

Why doesn’t she develop, market and sell her own game?

Play the gender politics cards in an online discussion is the equivalent to the c~~~ crying when you discuss in person with her…

Just pathetic !

Sincerely, nowadays you can get all the tools for free, the only thing that you need is a computer. Graphics, music, 3d models, the engine, etc… Everything can be done using free software.

What she is missing ? TALENT ! Tools are just tools, their output are based on your input, if she doesn’t have talent, you can give them any tool that the result will be only s~~~.

Mastering all those fields are hard for sure, but it is not impossible, just need some dedication, I’ve met some game developers that busted their asses to learn those fields and master it. But they are MALES, for males, put 10 years of effort into learning something is valid, for c~~~s, if she needs more than 3 months to be “a supreme master” at something, is easier just to blame the patriarchy !

For Lurkers thinking “oh just the game alone is really hard, with the art is impossible to someone to create it alone…” Here is an example of how easy it is using the Unreal Engine:

Companies executives are going to immediately put out political fires as quickly as possible within their companies due to fear that any such political fires will lead to “metoo” accusations against said executives.

This is actually a good move that shows the zero tolerance in some companies handled equally among the staff.

In other words, “don’t rock the boat”, is in effect at these companies.

Timer started for more allegations.
