What evidence?

Start a thread on Ingenito if you want to talk about him, or the court of public opinion. This is about an internal investigation, based on internally-sourced information, concluding that someone behaved in violation of sexual harassment rules and was fired for it. He was allowed to work for two months while the investigation took place.

You declared you don't know enough about the issue to have an opinion, and yet you shared one: that he "didn't say god bless you after somebody sneeze", which you equivocate to "rape". It's impossible to be more dismissive of workplace misconduct than that!

You've made it clear that you have a problem with trusting victims, and that you fundamentally don't understand sexual harassment in the workplace - or, at worst, that you think it's bullshit. My opinion on this matter is that's disgusting.

man with enormous chip on his shoulder about this issue for some completely inexplicable, impossible-to-guess reason: "I dont know anything about what happened, but the victims are wrong"

My advice is: dont pay attention to which gamer hates which developer because it's all completely and totally meaningless and ineffectual and publishers as large as EA aren't a person at whom hate can be directed anyway they are organizations with staff that rotates so frequently and with responsibilities so widely divided that no single person can bear the brunt of any of the blame for any one thing so why even fuckin bother getting mad about others being mad at nobody in particular

also EA, one of the largest corporations in the fuckin world, doesn't need anyone's defense and doesn't care if anyone hates them as it hasn't mattered in the least for over a decade so why should it matter now

Just go do the Zora Divine Beast immediately. It's the first one, it's very easy, gives you a new skill, and will point you in the next direction. Realistically, there are only about 5 major destinations in that game: the four Divine Beasts, and then the castle. Everything else in-between you will be directed towards, or near, by the Divine Beast stuff.

For what it's worth, I basically agree with this. I'm mostly rejecting the idea that certain conversations are too "intellectual" or "serious" and are not supposed to/allowed to happen here, especially because they are interfering with someone's ability to "just have fun". Stryker touched on that with their observation about Patrick and Austin's articles being rejected wholesale for their mere existence here. This thread is itself a mocking reaction to an approach to games that doesn't align with the typical mores of this community. That's shitty. Like you said, if you don't want to have these conversations, move on.

Ah, the old "remember when games were fun?" discussion. This thread exists as a mockery of intellectualism. Suggesting that everyone should unanimously cheer its existence is alarming, to say the fuckin least. Also yeah man, like, remember when we were ten (TEN!) years younger? And things were just fun? Welcome to adulthood, please stop hovering at the door and enter already

Hey, I'm completely on your level. Sure hope your point about Patrick and Austin's articles is heard.

Don't let fandom drive you away from stuff you like. I mean hey, if the content isn't for you, that's one thing, but this community is fucking rough. Long Live the Beastcast!!

My dude if you think that being "hard left" is the dominant viewpoint here, or in the gaming community writ large, you have not been paying attention. this community is the most centrist-ass place on the internet, and the gaming community in general would love nothing more than for "intellectuals" to keep their dirty lefty brains off of their games, which are just games by the way!!!!!!!!, and while we're at it no women please

He's "one of those". Rather than admitting fault, apologizing, seeking to understand why a huge amount of people are disgusted by his behavior, he has instead said, "hm, hard work? fuck it" and turned to the shitheads who will patch him up, agree that he's done nothing wrong, and whisper gentle promises of vengeance in his ear. Plenty of those in the games community these days!!!!!!!!!!

Your daughter deserves a Switch, and she deserves Mario.
