Tbh, I still have no idea what gamergate is about.

It's about calling out corruption in games journalism. Games journalism instead claims it's about nazism, violence, bigotry, harassment and terrorism.

because it was

the "corruption in games journalism" was just a weak smokescreen that all intelligent people saw right through


pretty much every non neckbeard knew it was just a front to harass women

The term "gamer" had problems in the public eye well before the articles. Anyone who wasn't insulated deep within the gaming community could see tha

That's the whole issue. This wasn't coming from outside the gaming community. This was coming from within it. The journos we're basically saying 'Hey, you know all those people who look down on gaming and gamers? Well they're completely right."

CyricZ posted...
Which is why assuming this was the intent is so fallacious. No one in their right mind would do such a thing, yet toxic and misled gamers just assumed that here's the exception, because they couldn't see past their own anger over being called out.

And yet they did just that. Anyone who criticize one of Anita's videos was part of that dirty little gamer group. Anyone who questioned their journalistic practices was part of that dirty group. Anyone who was annoyed by the whole 'games as art' type games was part of the group. And anyone who didn't like the articles, conveniently, was also part of that group. To be honest, even if somehow that wasn't their intent, their hamfisted and idiotic delivery and defense of the insulting articles sure as hell would be enough to get people angry. No clarification, no apology and no discussion or dialog was put forth by these people. Instead constant redeclarations, constant attacking and constant insults and slander. Ya, some people get angry at being 'called out". And some people get angry at being insulted and lied about.

It's not a harassment campaign tho?

Watch the 90-second video I posted. I'm not gonna claim there isn't an element of toxicity in the userbase but it was a response to a journalistic shitshow, not a 'ploy to harass journalists'

i was there when it happened

i know exactly what it was and what it was about

everyone claiming to be "fighting for ethics in games journalism" (which is a laughable statement in of itself) spent most of their time complaining about women and coming up with tactics to harass them

it absolutely was a harassment campaign

At this point, it doesn't really matter what gamergate was about, although honestly it was a mess that could've been easily prevented had someone not decided to go full Streisand Effect.

It's pretty much the boogeyman for Current Year that people go to for easy answers.

I'll say though that people think that it was responsible for Trump getting voted are solely missing the point. It was only a mere symptom of numerous problems bubbling under the surface. Problems that I want to believe that some are realizing but many more have either taken advantage of or covered up for whatever reason. And sadly I fear that at this rate something drastic is gonna happen before people can understand it, and it may be truly irreversible by then.

But that's not really concerning to people who only care about how much money you can profit off of triggering the libs/collecting male tears.

The whole Gamergate fiasco is proof that no one wants to hold Game journalism to the same standards as its sister fields. No basic ethical standards and no professionalism. And of course, if you try to bring up this criticism, they can easily fall back on "you're being misogynistic!" as outsiders won't take any interest in researching it to see both side and will just side with them as gamers have a horrible reputation already. But it comes back to haunt them anyways when people complain enough to pull advertisements from their site, or when a game just doesn't make the sales.

MrMallard posted...
And I mean s***, you can see the remnants of Gamergate-types in today's world, like "pizzagaters". Good angle to the story, people want to expose child sex crimes, but it stems from some insane theory about Hillary Clinton bankrolling and colluding with a Washington pizza place to house influential and powerful people with sick sexual tastes. All wrapped up in a bow of "Oh, we're trying to accomplish a good thing!" - and inevitably there will be good people buying into it, because they want to stop child sex abuse. They believe in a good cause.


I mean, there are articles reporting on child trafficking from Haiti from people connected to Clinton, the pizza place in question has an instagram where the owner is wearing a shirt saying I Love kids in french and there's another photograph on that same channel of a little girl taped to a table with a disgusted look on her face with grown men behind of her. And in that same year (or within 2 years), there was a huge bust of a pedophile ring in some country in Europe that was exclusive to politicians. You're asking for a lot for people to just dismiss that as nothing.

Gamergate was undeniably an anti-SJW and partially anti-woman/minority political identity movement by a certain class of internet citizens, not confined to gamers. That's the core of the movement and its lifeblood, very few people on any side care about ethics in video game journalism. Gamergate was simply part of the internet version of the culture wars. It is and always has been primarily political and cultural and that's obvious

The poor practices or lies of journalists are simply something to point to to provide cover for the fact that the movement was simply a backlash to increasing progressive influence in once insular mediums like games and comics that were shaped by and catered to young white dudes.

That's only if you completely ignore the list of material improvements GG counted as "victories" in terms of ethics, AND he fact that the society of professional journalists agreed with every point made about the ethical issues brought up. To flip your point around, the poor practices and behavior of a few channers using the GG name was simply something to point to provide cover for the fact that the movement was actually gaining efficacy in calling out bad journalistic practices.

http://whatculture.com/gaming/10-biggest-victories-gamergate-achieved-far

Even sites like the Guardian, while actively shitting on GG, admit early on that GG was having real, effective and positive impact:
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/jan/11/gamergate-a-brief-history-of-a-computer-age-war
Kotakus US editor Stephen Totilo wrote that Gamergate has been, if nothing else, a good warning to all of us about the pitfalls of cliquishness in the indie dev scene. While Gamergate had sporadic victories Intel pulled ads from a site called Gamasutra after a letter-writing campaign its main legacy seems to have been to entrench existing divisions.

And let's not forget that an entire site was created to explicitly catalogue these behaviors

You can't really prove something like that to begin with though. It was her testimony versus his, and he had a lot of stuff backing him up. >_> Not to mention it was very suspicious how she had connections with all these men in the industry who ended up reviewing/promoting her game. Some of their wives/girlfriends even came forward to corroborate the dudes story.

I believe the guy, personally. Think Zoe was turning tricks for good game reviews.

I'm not saying there weren't obvious flaws with gaming journalism. I am saying that's not what drew people to the movement. What excites people about it, what grew it, what keeps it going is anti-SJWism and internet brand social conservatism. And that's its legacy, even if the few who were actually concerned with ethics managed to do some good.

No, this isn't actually what happened lmao. None of this happened. People found it suspicious that he slept with Zoe Quinn the night before submitting a positive review. You write off the whole thing as misogynistic when the main target was the male Kotaku writer. You're not even trying to assess the actual facts and what happened, you just figure that because gamers can be misogynistic assholes, some /pol/ clowns sided with GamerGate, and that the whole thing started over a writer giving a female dev good reviews, that it must've been a "harassment campaign"

Depression Quest was certainly....a unique experience. I don't know if I could quantify it as "good", myself. But to harass, dox, and send death threats to someone over it is beyond the pale. Bottom line. There is no defending that.

It's about Zoe Quinn making a shitty game and fucking 5 guys at game news places like Kotaku for positive press about it. This was found out, and instead of those that fucked her fessing up, used their position to change the narrative to sjw bullshit to get the focus away from themselves.
