The funny thing is she's currently threatening to sue Smash JT for defamation because he said exactly this. lol, you can't make this stuff up.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

I saw that this person was hanging out with Sam Lake the other day and woof. Between this and that line in Alan Wake 2, I'm not sure what to think about Remedy these days.

Remedy has been trash for ages now. It's so sad.

Not my proudest fap.

 

[fart town usa]

I love how shes like "you must'veforgot myshit articlethat no oneread..."

What people need to do is put her on block or just mute her ass. Engaging with her only fuels her deranged ego. She's an attention whore, nothing more.

 

[Kamina]

The saddest part is that is was Quelaag who started it all.
I‘ve been subscribed to her Youtube since Dark Souls 1 because of her lore theories. It’s sad to see her go full retard.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

In a way, I like that Mercante is still around acting like a complete fucking moron because it means you get the occasional thread like this. Just as long as nobody's taking her seriously.

 

[Hypereides]

That has to be one of the most elegant, well articulated and professional takedowns/rebuttals in the gaming industry. And her best response was a "lol, TL;DR" speaks volumes.

It’s cancel culture mentality.

[cormack12]

Some persepctive is needed - She is one the most successful influencers of the last 5 years.

she influenced millions of people into hating her ass.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

What a cunt.

 

[Astral Dog]

It amazes me how they think this perfect utopia can actually exist. As if all ideas and suggestions are equal and should never be dismissed. The guy has simply made a decision about a games direction. The person who suggested it probably said ok, I'll go away and try and suggest a better solution (and then got on with his life). An occurance that happens a trillion times a day for normal people in work.

In her mind it's the end of the world and that person should be sent straight to hell anyway possible. How do these people work through life with that mentality?

Activist Journalists aren't there to find truth, simply report on games or(god forbid) celebrate the game industry, they feel entitled to criticize everything until it fits their agenda

 

[Gambit2483]

What a cunt.

A Mercunte one might say..

 

[Boss Mog]

Nobody should call her a journalist, actual journalism is something far beyond her reach, she's just a prostitute who looked and sounded degenerate enough to land a job at Kotaku, a place where journalism and gaming knowledge are not needed nor wanted.

 

[Gamerfan81]

I feel that the Kamiya response is best when dealing with these deranged lunatics.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Imagine how proud her parents are of her at family dinners.

 

[AmuroChan]

Imagine how proud her parents are of her at family dinners.

She's probably not going to any of those. Given her hatred for men, she either hates her dad or grew up without one.

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

She's probably not going to any of those. Given her hatred for men, she either hates her dad or grew up without one.

She claims her dad abused her or something along those lines. Your typical sociopath from Sunday TV movies.

 

[AmuroChan]

She claims her dad abused her or something along those lines. Your typical sociopath from Sunday TV movies.

Was that before or after she single-handedly made GTAIV?

 

[nush]

She claims her dad abused her or something along those lines. Your typical sociopath from Sunday TV movies.

Her dads a cop, I seriously doubt that. Probably gave her some tough love at worst.

 

[Moriarty1889]

She is a miserable whiny cunt. Nothing more nothing less.

 

[FunkMiller]

Not even going to comment on Mercante, because she’s entirely insignificant to this debate, but the things brought up about toxic positivity are spot on.

Creative endeavours fail if there’s no passion, creative conflict, constructive communication and compromise. And they certainly always fail if the people involved hate their audience.

 

[CLW]

 

[mitch1971]

Her dads a cop, I seriously doubt that. Probably gave her some tough love at worst.

She probably wanted to defund him as well.

 

[BigBeauford]

Her dads a cop, I seriously doubt that. Probably gave her some tough love at worst.

Yeah, cops aren't known for being overrepresented when it comes to domestic abuse.


Wait what?

 

[tkscz]

Not my proudest fap.

Not enough ass for me to look pass the lunatic she is. Isn't she the one who tried to get someone's wife to say bad things about her husband so she could make an article about it?

She's also not the person who claimed to work on Ori, she just came out of nowhere to talk shit about Thomas, a conversation that was none of her business and she rightly got told to fuck off in the best kind of way.

Did some extra digging and loving how many people are defending the woman claiming to work on the game by saying she was in the credits but every screenshot they show doesn't have her in them (lady's name is Rachel, they keep sending screenshots of a woman named Debora).

 

[simpatico]

Not my proudest fap.

Guys, braps like this are a dime a dozen these days. With all the seed oils and refined carbohydrate drinks, this is no longer the flex she thinks it is. Every 3.5/10 working at Burger King has one.

 

[Kumomeme]

remember, this shit is a mental health issue at first place. so no suprise if she is unstable. what worse is she is just one of many. well to be fair, minority that pose as the many.

western studio are heading into era where they prioritize a specific working 'environment' rather than passion and ability in working making games at first place. if this trend continue, not just it will be affect the output quality, but sooner or later game development studio will be a forefront of mental health hospital care.

journalist site already far ahead. those affected place basically asylum.

i pray eastern particularly asian studio are spared from this. there is tons of sign. not late to turn back for those who already half foot through the cave door.

[digdug2]

Most gamers are bigots? Why, because they don't share your twisted and fucked up world-view? GTFOH.

 

[DaciaJC]

 

[paolo11]

Isn’t she the one who challenges gamers to a fight and when someone publicly accepts the challenge, she backs out?

 

[SantaBanana]

Not my proudest fap.

I can fix her

 

[GymWolf]

Not my proudest fap.

 

[DenimDevil]

I can fix her

 

[GHG]

Victorious incels do both.

 

[HJuggernaut]

i went limp.

apparently she has an OF, not sure who would pay for it though
