This feels cliche from those cartoons - like how only one person should be lambasted and not the actual problem.

Maybe the lesson to be learned here is that sometimes spectators are not wanted or appreciated. You life doesn't have to revolve around following every word that someone you don't know says.
Well, I haven't been a fan of them in a long time. It always seems like there is some new controversy surrounding them, and I'll read about it on here (long time lurker) or Reddit. I think it's safe to say: I. A segment of the gaming community hates them. II. They succeed in making stories with controversy, which keeps people talking about them.
The way Luke feigned his shock at someone being offended, is funny.

Well, maybe Kamiya can take the same advice and not feeding the trolls...
Wah...

He should have emailed then. He knew he was on Twitter. He knew what a circus this would cause.
You act like he would even want to avoid the circus.
Not really. If that's what he wants to do, that's his business. Feeling upset that someone's personal twitter account is not living up to your expectations is stupid.
Believe me. I never visit their website. That still won't keep their stupidity from reaching me through other parts of the internet. I wish people would realize what shitty website it is, but the average gamer don't realize how fucking stupid their shit is. Just stop visiting it and stop linking to it.

That's how he always is on twitter, though.
Maybe kotaku should have emailed him for a more thorough explanation on his views on pc gaming/valve if they really wanted to run an article on it.
Taking the time doing research or getting an in-depth response means less clicks. On the other hand "The circus" means more clicks, and thats what Gawker journalism is all about.

I feel upset that human discourse between grown-ups has turned into *that*, and then it's celebrated and cheered. I don't think that's stupid at all.
I completely agree. Kotaku is in the wrong here too, but for completely different reasons.
While it may not have been their intention. At least you got free games from Sony.
But that would take actual effort

The typical cartoon/anime plot.
You know how Arthur calls out... say... Erika a douchebag because she is, but then the peers around Arthur scold Arthur as though he is an asshole for not "taking the high road" and letting the douchebag get away with it?
I hated Bayonetta and already decided I wouldn't buy the second.....however this almost makes me want to grab another copy.

That's a pretty weak argument.
Also, I have the right to not to like it and actually answer him... and the cycle begins.
They actually don't. They legitimately believe they are on some crusade against deep, complex social issues..which ultimately results in them taking developers words out of context to label them misogynists or labeling a whole region as PC ignorant.
Was Namco/FROM Soft porting to PC, with no experience, all based off demand from online petition so long ago?

I guess dude
Just seems weird how people are so quick to defend a guy cursing out his fans on a twitter that exists solely for him to communicate with fans with "WELL WHAT DID YOU EXPECT FROM TWITTER" like that gives him the right to blow up at people like this instead of blocking or ignoring them
but I'm tired of this whole thing.
feel free to , you know, say WHY its actually weak...

Kamiya is really the best.
These people aren't his fans, they're flocking to his twitter after seeing it on kotaku
There is no human discourse between grown-ups here though. Not at any form on an intellectual or maturity level anyway. I also don't think any reasonable person would have expected any. Clearly not from Kotaku or Kamiya. I think it's silly to celebrate and cheery anything on Twitter anyway.

This is one of the most delicious Tweet fights of the new year. God bless Twitter.
The Jaffe article a while back got me to completely drop Kotaku. Haven't bothered with it since.

But the thing is that... Arthur was also a Douchebag, calling her douchebag doesn't resolve anything and he is just repeating the cycle

It's not a weak argument because if you do that you're just contributing to the same thing you're arguing against.

I've never seen that episode of Arthur
Kamiya has revealed some interesting things on Twitter though, like how Itsuno only came in at the end of DMC2's development cycle to attempt salvaging a wreck and that DMC3 was the first game he directed from start to finish. Of course, this was before degenerate clowns started irritating him for the sake of pissing him off and people instead asked him semi-interesting questions.

NickROX can speak fluent Japanese--not so sure about the other two.

Because apathy doesn't mean that responses stop things from existing.
But then we are in a logical fallacy. Circular reasoning, and is not contributing in anything. That's what I 'm trying to say.
Kotaku has also independently written articles which are insightful and sometimes even well researched. Like their recent story on Silicon Knights. That doesn't change the fact what when we are talking about a Twitter flamewar between Kotaku and Kamiya, I don't think anyone should expect "human discourse between grown-ups". Lol.
Oh, wow, Kotaku was extremely offensive here. They assumed that a Japanese/Asian developer didn't know about certain companies based on some random tweets, apparently (?) -- then proceed to discuss it like it's typical Japanese/Asian. Seems somewhat racist, even.
And yes, while the entire thing seems misinformed, writing "Clueless about Valve", etc. is unnecessarily rude -- they could have written, "Didn't know about Valve" or something like that, which would have been slightly less rude, and made just as much sense. Using the word "Clueless" instead of "Didn't know" makes it seem like they dislike the person they were writing about.

The most twisted thing about that is that those people actually think he enjoys responding to it or something.
I'll just put this here then, and if you are going to call someones point weak, its probably best to respond to them directly.
honestly I'm not sure what you've been trying to say for a couple of posts now.
Not sure about their level of fluency, but they can all speak Japanese.
