Usually the people there are just funny and actually discuss things when stuff comes up. It's fine. The people there are for the most part nice. Looking into the thread about queer masculinity in stealth games really made me think GAF became too big for it's own good. That is a cesspool of dumb people shouting about nothing, instead of actually having a discourse about what I think is a pretty interesting article.
On a different note: I hope the East Crew will play dropsy. I thought that game was great when I played it at Gamescom. It's an adventure game in which you play a clown who just wants to bring happiness to people. You also want to hug them. I hugged a tree and a squirrel during my time with it and thought it was delightful.
