Doxxing Files |OT| Do not use a pandemic to make a platform wars thread

Avalanche Software (not to be confused with Avalanche Studios, the Just Cause guys) was outright owned by Disney, so this piece of shit gator was a literal Disney employee, before Disney shut them down after they canned Infinity.

WB then picked up Avalanche's remains to do the Harry Potter game.

Thoughts on Sojurn from Overwatch 2?
It looks like a majority of her body is augmented but if so why did her robot legs and ass become “thicc”?

Too thin, too thick... gee this almost sounds problematic they way they're discussing women

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

Just eyeballing here, he's obviously worked at Avalanche since at least 2007, and even more importantly, with the WALT DISNEY COMPANY, for over a decade now. Far longer than he's spent making "anti-feminist/pro-gamergate" YouTube videos since Feminism wasn't invented until 2017 with #metoo. And he's done both far longer than he's worked on anything associated with Harry Potter.

FACT CHECK:

Thread marked this.
So many red flags.
With anti-LGBTQ+ studio like this no wonder Disney got out of video game business.

This dudes at avalanche? Oh great, well if they ever bring it back the Just Cause series can get fucked too then. Actually like those games too.

[benjipwns]

I can't imagine this is doing JC Avalanche a lot of favors sharing a name with these guys

"Oh, you guys are doing that sweet looking Harry Potter game? I loved Just Cause!"

[benjipwns]

A lot of them no doubt were young, but the MRA movement that gamergate emerged out of was full of middle aged dads. Started by them in fact, specifically because of their sexist views on their own (ex)wives and daughters.

Not sure what that has to do with my avatar and I don’t think they have shown her pre augmetics. It can be based off her body before. I do like how the muscles are recreated in the legs.

There's a universe out there where the Harry Potter franchise wasn't ruined by its creator

[benjipwns]

I mean can’t say I’m shocked that this fool is a complete monster or that WB supports it.

The amount of support he is getting is a good kick to the head though, anyone who wants to try and say that Women or Trans People aren’t still absolutely being shit on by the industry or it’s thralls simply needs to look here and see that yes, we are still something to be used by White Cis males and nothing more.

Yes these game developers and their sexist views in regards to their....daughters. 


This game does not even come out until sometime next year and it's already their 3.0 version of 

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

the irony being, if #gamergate diehards really wanted to claim another scalp, the feminist owner of the IP which this studio is developing from would have the capability to request some internal shuffling so that a perceived misogynist is no longer attached to the project.

You know. If you hadn't already tried this cancel shit on them first.

[benjipwns]

I guess this ends the hope that WB will buy out Rowling's stake in Harry Potter for billions.

It’s honestly horrifying how open and brazen they are being about it too. Like there is no mistake that they hate women and trans people and people of color and they are very proud of it and wish to never see people like me or others prosper or have representation or anything worthwhile.

The kind of hate that people must hold to wholeheartedly believe this and respect others who believe the same is just so frightening beyond words.

It's gonna be a nightmare to discuss anything about this game isn't it? I just hope it's a good take on the world, no matter what Rowling says is and isn't canon.

What an amazing asshole   

if the mods were worth anything at all they'd have perma banned this guy a long time. He's nothing but a ban baiter and ruins every discussion he's in (...oh wait, the mods probably love that)

[benjipwns]

That'll also be a good example of their lack of solutions except bans when they go and ban the guy. Other posters complained about his post, he had a dialogue with them, now he understands why they complained and edited his post accordingly. Problem solved.

But the mods will roll in on the back of the reports and need to feel the need to do something more and will ban him. (Especially with Weltall Zero calling attention to his history of history.) And probably edit the rape stuff back into his post.

Freedom of speech doesn't imply freedom from consequences!

This phrase is very popular, but with such a broad and vague wording, it could easily include state suppression or worse as an implied "consequence".
In other words, it doesn't mean much.

[benjipwns]

And to be clear: I don't like Hasél and I don't like his lyrics, he's an idiot and a attention seeker, but I don't think he should be imprisoned.

Our freedom of speech is freedom or death. We got to fight the powers that be. Lemme hear you say:

[benjipwns]

Just to check again if this game holds up, just played it again (old school, no save states) and managed to beat it without losing a continue or even a single turtle (few close calls though), I did spent some time farming the scrolls for all turtles though (finally making mike and ralph not useless), this didn't take as long as I remember.

I was surprised I still remembered where the route to get all the bombs on the water level, and the road to finish the 3rd Level.

4th level I went with my gut on where to go, I just remembered that you have to go for the levels that scroll to the right to go forward, and you eventually get to the end, the closing spike walls near the end are still nerve wraking.

5th level got lucky with the technodrome and found it in my first try with all my turtles in good health.

Final level went almost full scroll weapon while avoiding the jetpack guys specially on the last corridor, shredder is easy with the scroll too.

The game does hold up and it's still great, and the music slaps

I remember having arguments about this during the Count Dankula thing when he was arrested for making his dog do a nazi salute.

People that were so keen on using that phrase would always remove the context from the original XKCD comic to the point that I'm not so sure they even understood what Freedom of Speech meant.

Yes, freedom of speech DOES mean freedom from legal consequences.  It doesn't matter if it's a fine of a penny, the government or law getting involved in any way is massive overreach.  Now if you want to say there should be more exceptions to freedom of speech, go for it, but don't use the "freedom from consequences" argument when you're not using it right at all.

Ree is upset today -

You are responsible for creating this hostile environment. You are the ones keeping this shit threads like console-warring, insider admiring, single one-off questions, dumb ass lists etc. online.
Instead of creating a discussion forum you've gone down the exact same hole GAF fell into, with a bit less transphobia.
You're responsible for this site being a (not so)slow chat instead of a discussion forum.
What's your goal with this one-off post in this very Sony-specific thread? Do you get a power-high posting tough words and asking rhetorical questions? Be a hero and put stuff like this as the first message people see when they enter the site. Battle this hostile environment from the inside out. Have your mods moderate discussions and threads.

Knowing this site this will probably get me banned instead of the admin- and modteam actually doing some introspection on why there's this much hostility on the website, and I highly doubt you'll ever try to get into a regular conversation on how to better the site, but I feel like you're on a way to high a horse and have to really look at how you're running the site vs how you hope people will use the site.

  First off, I want to say how disappointed in this community I am. The amount of hostility in this thread is unwarranted. This community needs to be better about how it treats one another.

As for MarsipanRumpan, he's not going to get banned, so chill the fuck out. There's been smoke from multiple sources about Bluepoint being acquired by Sony, so it's pretty much going to happen, it's just a matter of when. I had faith enough that it was going to happen so I would never have to ban them in the first place. I don't like actual ban bets and don't tend to entertain them.

Now, let's talk about how insiders are treated around here. It's disgusting, to say the least. One wrong thing and some of y'all treat them like they're the damn devil. Guess what? Plans change, sources might have heard something wrong, or the fact that we're in the biggest pandemic in the last 100 years. That shit tends to delay things. So yeah, things are up in the air more than ever. That doesn't give y'all an excuse to be jerks about it. I get it, this is a video game forum. We're all passionate about it. But that doesn't mean we need to get so hostile and attack one another, right? Take a breath every now and then.

On that note, since things have been clearly affected by the pandemic, we're being more strict with insiders. I'm not going to go into our processes and procedures on how we do things, so don't ask, but we don't approve anything be posted that we haven't seen significant evidence for. With things being so hinky right now, we're needing more evidence before insider stuff gets posted.

So, everyone calm down. Marsipan ain't getting banned. Y'all are gonna stop being at each other's throats every damn second, and we're all gonna play nice, or else you're getting put into time out. Got it? Good.
