Anita Sarkeesian presents: Eight things developers can do to make games less shitty for women.

@Diacanu , seriously man. Step away from this thread. You're getting way too emotionally involved.

I can't follow what the actual disagreement is in here with all the snark. Can someone sum it up for me?

From what I can tell, Dicky doesn't like Sarkeesian because reasons. He thinks her/our efforts would be better spent elsewhere, such as helping rape victims.

Archangel doesn't like her because #notallgamers "she is the sexism version of Al and Jesse." (cite)

Perfection.

That's about the best typo I've ever made.

I think she is the sexism version of Al and Jesse.

Edited.

Don't give up, @Diacanu !! You're only a few more bullshit complaints from destroying internet feminism forever!!

In that you and your ilk obsess over the percieved faults of certain activists because it's easier than taking the issues they bring up seriously?

*Hands behind head, feet up on desk*
Pure class.
Keep digging, you'll hit China eventually.

When did he OD on the kool-aid ?

Well, there's 17 minutes of my life I'm never getting back.

Seriously, Archie had a more thoughtful rebuttal back on page 1.

Well, there it is, you hate women.
In fact, you always did.
We all noticed.
Who's "we"?
Never you mind.

What's the three bullet summary?

Misogynist.

-Games are "fantasy" and "silly," which means they should be immune to criticism.

-Sarkeesian doesn't understand "penis physics."

-Assorted "I can read Sarkeesians mind" bullshit.

Bonus: #notallgames

Excellent, just as I suspected it would be, and seventeen minutes saved!

Feel free to elaborate on anything you think I missed, friend.

Nah, anyone who watches the video can see you're showing your ass.

Did that voice really just claim, three times in a row, that games can't help but over(sic!)emphasize female butts because so many women just have really big butts, especially if they're not white?

She does have one good point, though, in criticizing Sarkeesian's use of the idea of normality. Which is exactly the kind of debate we should be having following Sarkeesian's analyses, and what they're there for.

Points for watching.

Ah, so you're either lying, or you're a coward. I'll let you decide which.

And now like the Scientologists before them, Gamergaters are trying to rig to Hugo awards.
