someone should change the thread title or something ;_;
Ya, I just read through the thread. Not caught up in all the gamergate stuff. Sorry for my ignorance.

Indie games are so creator focused, and often with such small teams, that their influence, values, etc. often seep into the design and story of a game at a much deeper level than say a Call of Duty or Elite DangerousThis never made sense to me.
Honestly, the whole love affair with this aesthetic strikes me as a little gross. I can recognize the effort in some of the production, but the overall design is completely derivative. Just because you copy something else that was original at one time does not make the borrowing worthwhile. This game's art design is shit pastiche from artists with actual merit. If you compare it to something like Ori the difference is fairly evident.
That could be very interesting, no? You think it might be too edgy? I mean if it's not just pure misogyny and crazy "the feminists are here to get us", I find the idea very intriguing. An interesting role reversal. Makes me think of a dark version of Machulski's Sexmission.
It would be more interesting if the creator wasn't a misogynist who actually thinks that feminism will lead to a dystopia.That could be very interesting, no? You think it might be too edgy?

Let's not turn this into another "Fuck Microsoft" thread. This game fooled millions.
Seriously hope MS does the right thing and dumps him.
Probably won't but will keep my fingers crossed.

Can someone interpret this tweet for me?
The only way I see it is,
"Degenerate women wish they could enjoy the excess of life and continue working while pregnant." Somehow that's a bad thing???

Wolfenstein The New Colossus could save all of these bad vibes if it's shown. The New Order and The Old Blood were some of the most progressive FPSs of all time, so them continuing a new game with a female protag would be so awesome.Yeah I guess. I'm just bummed.
I'm gonna go for a walk and watch the Bethesda conference, hopefully that'll cheer me up.

Because reading the guys posts it's going to be the feminists and SJW are here to get us. This is not going to be a dystopian take on equality being taken too far this is going to be anti-feminism and GG shit.

In case you can't see it, Shannon Loftis is the GM of Microsoft Studios Publishing.
Yeah, I think MS are going to ditch their contract with this guy, they clearly had no idea what the hell they were signing up for.
Wow. I was wondering why this topic was blowing up. I love the art style but if the dev is who you're all saying he his ....... Not ever buying it.
Why do people hate this guy so much?

shit's fire
I honestly don't think MS is to blame here. None of us knew, or most of us at least, didn't know the background on this game. I don't expect MS/Sony/Nintendo to do full background checks on social media and such when picking up a game.
That said, it'll be interesting to see if MS responds to this at all.
Good point!
and lol @ title change

I'm caught up with his terrible views... Can someone explain the duck thing to me though? lol
Yeah this. Even the suggestion that you get the humble bundle and donate it to charity is just a selfish way of making yourself feel better about supporting a misogynistic asshole. That sale still counts. Completely shut him out until he changes his tune. A message has to be sent if you care about this industry's inclusiveness.Shitty political views is one thing, but actively supporting GamerGate which was a prolonged hate and harassment campaign directed against women in the gaming industry that we're still seeing the effects of today is something awful enough on it's own to warrant skipping the game entirely.
