I think era are racists.

Of course they are. Believing in the existence of separate human races (aka racial theory) makes you a racist.
I genuinely don't understand why you are so hung up on this line.
If he's serious about that and not just trying to hang with the general tone here, then he might not realize that it's common parlance for 'phenotype'.

At this point I don’t even think women should be in games if people are going to find Fryea in GoW problematic.

She isn’t and I know with ree writing comes after you’ve combed over the text with ethics, but the character is a thematic double to kratos in every since of the way. She is his opposite. That’s her role in the story. All the way down to being a mother and well gee actin great motherly. You can argue it’s lame writing and easy, but there’s really nothing problematic unless you have just have to have a problem with women having any sense of firmiliar gender roles. But I guess have fun having a conitption fit over every female character ever I guess.

The way I viewed the situation wasn't very "journalistic" of me. I assumed that if she had joined the team that they had vetted her, and just because Reddit thought she was some random didn't indicate to me that it might be true. Players you've never heard of from soloq are accepted into the minor leagues for comp games all the time i.e. League of Legend's Academy teams.

I assumed that she was vetted. I don't think it's wrong of anyone to assume that she was because, well, you kind of expect an organization to do the bare minimum when picking up a player.

This is why everybody hates 'games journalism' and the 'community' surrounding it.
You assumed somebody had done some basic fucking fact checking so didn't fucking bother with your own.
Meanwhile everyone who read your piece assumed you did some basic fucking fact checking, so didn't bother with their own.

Next up, shit thats obviously untrue with even a cursory fucking glance at the statements made gets repeated as verbatim gospel across forums everywhere.

People.who have an issue with Freya seem like people who confuse "strong female character" with "flawless female character"

Wow at this rate "gaming journalism" is going to be as bad as regular "non-journalism" like at The Washington Post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/russian-hackers-penetrated-us-electricity-grid-through-a-utility-in-vermont/2016/12/30/8fc90cc4-ceec-11e6-b8a2-8c2a61b0436f_story.html

I was gonna say that non-gaming journalism hasn't cultivated their own little bogeyman to deflect any and all criticism away from them, but then I remembered #fakenews

Yikes...I feel like an idiot making this now...maybe mods should delete this and someone make a new one for the new scenario?
Someone made a new thread a it got locked in favor of updating this one. Not your fault though I dont think any of us saw this coming

I'm sure some did. I'm also sure they were swiftly banned.

Overwatch has one of the most toxic communities I've ever experienced.

that spelling is traumaticatizing to read  :stahp
Depends on which style guide you rely on and if you make any custom alterations. Most in the industry use "esports" in the middle of the sentence, and "Esports" when it is the first word in the sentence. If you abide only by AP Style Guide, you write it as "eSports" which we all hate. Mate, I hate to break it to you but esports is already professional.

You seem to want to highlight that this is an incredibly widespread issue, yet tell me to google your own proof as if that proves your ridiculous point. Controversies happen in any industry, but to label it as incredibly widespread is disingenuous because again, Overwatch is not the only esports game. The majority of 800+ league of legends professionals are not toxic. The same can be said for professional players of Overwatch.

Esports will never be taken seriously as long as it's played by dorky teenagers with cringy nicknames.
long people haven't recovered from gamergate which led to Trump, and the US literally becoming 1930s Germany.

That is factually incorrect by the literal definition of the word.

That isn't to say it happens often. It absolutely doesn't and it's why "men's rights" groups deserve to be laughed at. Men are the ones often in power and women have to face sexism on a daily basis.

But we shouldn't simply make things up. Words have meanings.

Jesus Christ. "Hey look, you're *technically wrong*. But it's not like men face sexism anyhow, so let's laugh at men's rights groups, even if they have legit complaints."

Everyone knows eSports is just a plot by the alt-right to recruit more disaffected young white males, just like PewDiePie.

Makes sense for the place that constantly features "racism means not liking dark people only, now let me keep explaining how white skin inherits evil genes and needs to be destroyed, plus Asians by nature don't have an ability to respect women".

Overwatch came out almost three years ago and still isn't on Switch, and Blizzard has refused to confirm which characters are cannonically trans, why would video gaming enthusiasts pay any attention to it?

Other than the uplifting story of the BLACK social justice revolutionary activist Lucio who is BLACK of course. (Although Blizzard has still not updated this BLACK characters backstory to account for Bolsonaro's election fascist seizure of power thanks to liberal truckers and complete destruction of the Amazon Rainforest.)

Players continue to be trash human beings.

I just read this same story too on Game Informer. Seems like she got wind of a doxxing attempt when someone sent her screens from a Discord room planning it. Terrible.

The fact that we have 3 different contenders players vouching for her should have cleared it.
Quote
Hmmm I wonder why she kept herself private online, oh right because this shit happens!

Disgusting behavior from the community and Blizzard needs to do something about this. Gaming culture, and especially esports culture, is so toxic and awful.

Yep, angsty virgins being angsty virgins. If eSports is going to join the modern age these teams need mature managers that will shut this shit down.

I know it's hard when confronted with breaking news like this, but you might want to treat this as speculative until they produce a primary source.
