Alyssa Mercante has left Kotaku, supposedly layoffs happening now

Not her best side
 
Why is Gaf allways reporting on people I don't know and I don't care ? And more importantly why do you?
She's the former senior editor at Kotaku and a big reason why that site transformed from a kickass gaming news/blog focused on niche Japanese games into a bunch of SJW clickbait.

Thanks for letting us know you don't care. You're welcome to ignore/hide the thread instead of posting here.

I remember her descent into infamy began with tweeting that you can't be racist to white people. It's an old concept, but many people had never heard it before. That aside, with the sheer number of devs, gaming media employees, publishers, etc. who have become far too comfortable with antagonizing gamers (ie. your audience/customers) - I'd like to think she serves as a cautionary tale. Putting your personal beliefs ahead of the product and insulting customers has consequences and that's how it should be.

Oh come on, the site went downhill before she was even there, giving her too much credit on that.
 
This is worth showing off nowadays? Average girl behind the counter at Wendy's at least has some waist taper. Probably wouldn't even have those linesman shoulders either. Alyssa is built like a VHS tape. Now I see she shaved her head and began code switching in a desperation heave for mainstream sympathy. Let's see if it works out for her.
 
video removed? lol

Removed for harassment and bullying

Seriously though, what did she say?

I'm lazy so someone had already done a quick summary from the subs:


It was "this is my story" but there was no actual story. It was four to five minutes of "mean things said to me for absolutely zero reason out of completely nowhere"

That's pretty much it.

I expected a bit of self reflection, some "yeah I was shit talking and I shouldn't have said that", they got it wrong the reasons are...x or something of substance.

But it really was just "people say mean stuff to me"

This but AFTER she calls gamers the worst people on earth who came up with UNFOUNDED claims against sweet baby.

So nothing new.. calls gamers horrible mean things then cries that gamers are calling her horrible mean things.
 
Regardless of the fact that she worked in the joke that is modern gaming journalism, these guys have got fucking problems.

Touch grass, speak to someone.
