Why do game bloggers rise up to defend big name companies like this? The blogging to marketing pipeline like the old days are dead.

Today en “Let’s believe the giant corporation even though history tell us they kill studios on regular basis”

https://www.resetera.com/threads/according-to-jason-schreier-making-anthem-was-bioware-idea-ea-actually-gives-the-studios-autonomy-and-more.105408/

EA and Bioware keep repeating this stuff like an abused wife that defends her husband.

How the hell is EA going to bioware and saying "hey why don't you have a service based microtransaction factory?" not pressuring them to make anthem? Schrier directly said their performance was compared to fucking FIFA.  :lol

Quote from: press sneak fuck
EA isn't interested in putting big money into video games unless they can have a revenue tail
The worst trend is game journo's always picking up corporate non-speak.
I hated it when it started with "SKU" and I hate it now with "Roadmap" and "Revenue tail"

Yeah, much of a "revenue tail" Anthem will have going if everyone hates it at launch.
Also a reminder that journalists have as much a stake in these 'games as a service' thingies as the publishers have.
A game they can keep reporting on as it launches from mediocre to passable is better for clicks than a one-off big hit title.
Not to mention they are 'influencers' that get to test and praise this shit before it launches. But like a bunch of Star Wars fanboys they never warn the developers.
That always comes later when they actually review it.  "During the playtest we didn't want to say their game was boring because we got so much nice swag"

They praised Anthem at every preview while we knew it was fucked when EA started throwing out terms like "an unfinished world" and had a 2 minute demo on loop in their "big reveal".

Also EA refusing to fund games that don't have some sort of 'ROADMAP' really shows how much they actually influence these decisions.
At some point everyone acts the way EA wants them to because they don't want to lose their jobs.

Last Friday:
User Banned (Duration Pending): Inflammatory dismissal of sexual abuse allegations; account still in junior phase
User Banned (Duration Pending): Antagonizing other members over a series of posts, history of trolling
User Banned (Duration Pending): Misogynist rhetoric and dismissing concerns surrounding equal representation

Last Thursday:
User Banned (Duration Pending): Inflammatory drive-by post dismissing allegations of abuse, numerous accumulated infractions for inflammatory behavior

Always happy to help mods!
All these are now updated to actual ban lengths! Three one months and a permanent. :success

Saturday ones still pending.

edit: Oop! This one just turned into a month too!
User Banned (Duration Pending): Dismissing concerns surrounding sexual assault and antagonizing other members

At this rate I have to assume their own forum software doesn't give them good tools to go check on pending bans, but they do read this thread

Hi Reee mods. I'm glad Benji could do your job for you, you lame cunts. Please fuck off and die.

Anyone else who is lurking and is maybe considering joining this place, do what everyone else does and harass Pogi for days via PMs and other means. He will cave eventually and get you approved.

I check one randomly sometimes if the paper seems suddenly too informed. Usually you can just tell if it's bad. Not that that didn't stop a poorly and obviously plagiarized paper from winning a state Poli Sci award.

User Banned (duration pending): Trolling, dismissing efforts in representation and inclusivity as insincere; history of severe infractions.

A lot of the times when I come across a LGBT character in gaming it makes me roll my eyes.
Most of them are so shoehorned in it feels like the developer just wants to pander to the community without understanding what they actually go through on a day to day basis.

The same with minorities really, but that’s improved in the past 10 or so years.

If you’re not going to do the characters sexuality justice then just ignore it entirely
