No one posting that screenshot has actually played through the game to understand the context.
They can dish it out, but they can’t take it. That’s called being a pussy.

Always funny if people that brag about cancel culture want to cancel something...
These sites are all going to die. They days are all numbered they arent making money, look at how desperate IGN is, 15 different "games showcase", tiktok style influencer videos, esports style shoutcasting, they are struggling and so are all the others. So the narrative won't be controlled by these idiots anymore.
Personally, I wouldn't call it "based" but him more just being a normal, balanced human being...unlike other people who can't keep their head screwed on right. Not sure how aggressively Gunnar shouts his "beliefs" into the world, as I only ever listened to "Stay Forever" and read the comments. However, DDGing his Twatter, it definitely looks like he is 100% in a certain camp. He seems like he has intelligence but unfortunately not enough, or not enough instinct to notice that he is living in a box. From what it looks like, he pretty much reads US-controlled media (like Welt, Spiegel etc) and forms his opinions from there instead of from personal experience, universal truths and reflection. Though, the "personal experience" part is always tricky with people who mostly live on the internet or in some kind of workspace bubble. The normal worker type tends to be more grounded while people more removed from that (like journalists, people doing administrative work, career politicians etc) lack some connection to reality. (Although the "some" is too often not applicable anymore today, as some have lost all contact to reality.)
And I always thought this was sad:Regarding Anita:
This is the kind of people we're up against. They're just sad, really. You'd read about something like this in the weird section on page 21 of your local newspaper and go "huh, what a weirdo". Wouldn't give them a second glance in real life, so why would they deserve more online.
Absolute bottom of society-tier, accidentally given more power than they deserve thanks to an overly tolerant Western society.
Fair enough. I'd call Langer based on him finally being able to rescue Retro Gamer from the shackles of fucking Heise. One of the worst magazine publishers in existence. Those motherfuckers owe me 100€ and still try to gaslight me. Assholes.Personally, I wouldn't call it "based" but him more just being a normal, balanced human being...unlike other people who can't keep their head screwed on right.

It isn't a conspiracy theory if it's true.
Ok, it was not an order
. You do you… wait, is that an order as well?
even as recently as the movie idiocracy, people've almost always foreseen a future made dumber from the bottom up. hardly anyone foresaw a future made dumber from the top down...
Ok, it was not an order
I guess you could call that forceful advice then if calling it an order does not suit you.
Games just passed 5 million sales. But they spoke with 60 players. Representation bro.
Lets give credit for the pioneer.
*cat just out of frame.
It seems inevitable that the group is going to be banned or deleted by Steam. After all, Valve is a client of Sweet Baby Incorporated.

Yes it was around the time Ubisoft had started using their dumb sensitivity disclaimer messages when this began. It was very obvious something was up and things got progressively worse. GAF and its history are also guilty but the way things have turned out maybe shows us that there can be positive change?"An industry standard that's been normal for years"
Because up until now it's been safely swept under the rug. I've known about this shit for ages - frankly, ever since Feminist Frequency (which got 100s of thousands of annual tax dollars to play protection racket with game studios) popped up, there's been a contingent of gamers who have known for almost a decade. But "Sweet Baby Inc" is just the sort of name that makes relative normals raise an eyebrow. Especially now.
Not normal because anyone sane agrees with it.
You want examples of what the industry thinks is normal?

Hm, I don't know the story behind that and always bought my Retro Gamer physically from a store (stopped at some point though). Unfortunately, when I moved, I threw them all away (and they were in basically perfect condition too). Did they just not deliver to you?
The very last issue of Retro Gamer that they published before killing the magazine and Langer deciding to publish it by himself, they mistakenly delivered one big-ass box of magazines of the same issue. Of course billing me appropriately (about 100€) and, after contacting their customer support each week over months, and after promises of paying me back etc... Nothing. Just nothing. And the worst part is that each time I've called the customer support, they acted like I've been calling them for the first time.
Self published now. I still get issues.
