NOTHING HAS F------ CHANGED 10

Gamergate (harassment campaign) Article Talk From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For other uses, see Gamergate (disambiguation). Gamergate or GamerGate (GG)[¹] was a loosely organized misogynistic online harassment campaign and a right-wing backlash against feminism, diversity, and progressivism in video game culture. [2][³] It was conducted using the hashtag "#Gamergate" primarily in 2014 and 2015.[1][4][5][6] Beginning in August 2014, Gamergate targeted women in the video game industry, most notably feminist media critic Anita Sarkeesian and video game developers Zoë Quinn and Brianna Wu, among others.[7][8][9][10][11] The harassment campaign included doxing, r--- threats, and death threats.[12][13][14] Gamergate proponents ("Gamergaters") stated that they were a social movement, but lacked well-defined goals, a coherent message, and leaders, making Gamergate difficult to define.[15][16][17] Gamergaters claimed to promote ethics in video games journalism, claimed to be protecting the "gamer" identity, and opposed what they asserted as "political correctness" in video games.[18][19][20][21][22] Read Date Target Gamergate, online harassment campaign in 2014-15 that targeted women in the video game industry. The attacks were attributed largely to white male right-wing gamers who railed against the rise and influence of women and feminism in the industry. Gamergate served as a recruiting tool for the growing alt-right movement and helped spur the online “Pizzagate" conspiracy theory, which soon spawned the wider QAnon conspiracy movement. …………………………....…..……….….....

[2][36] Gamergate led figures both inside and outside the gaming industry to focus on methods of addressing online harassment, ways to minimize harm, and prevent similar events. [37] [38] [39] [40] Gamergate has been viewed as a contributor to the alt-right and other right- wing movements.[21][41] Video game developer Brianna Wu

X Journalists would make claims of people like Anita Sarkeesian "playing video games all her life" when she openly admitted many times she is not a gamer and only starter recently (when it wasn't for an interview). Various developers trading sex or money for good reviews got exposed, journalists who accepted got exposed. People became a bit more critical about supporting a game just because the developer has a victim complex stating tat their game could have only failed because of sexism, instead of their own poor developing skills. What really sealed the deal was opposition often faking their own harassment. Anita sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn have been caught multiple times screenshotting "harassment" while showing that the harrasser's account name in the login. Or when someone called the police to help Sarkeesian against a "very real threat" she was posting about, only for police to find the harasser's messages were coming from her IP address. I just want honesty from the community, and the lies were mostly exposed by the "dreaded" gamergate. 1.3K views • View upvotes 26

The Purpose Of A Game Review And How To Write One With Minimal Subjectivity By Oliver Campbell

ver Capbell onSep25 The Purpose Of A Game Review and How To Write One With Minimal Subjectivity In the continuing consum er revolt that is #gamergate, more than once has the subject of game reviews come up. Qualms are usually focused around how they are frequently slanted, skewed, heavily biased, or just not informative. So I've decided to sit down and tell you how to go about crafting il quality review. Why do we write reviews? Any review boiled down into its basic form is written in order to help the reader (YOUR customer) make an informed decision about what they MIGHT purchase, or otherwise utilize. The fact of the matter is this; game journalism and game reviews are a customer oriented business. Your readers are your customers, except rather than paying you upfront with cash (unless you're still subscribing to a magazine) they're paying you with clicks of your articles. Nevertheless, your ultimate job is to serve your customer and serve them well. Assume that every customer has a limited entertainment budget: your job is to make sure that they are getting the best value for their dollar Over the past week I've seen more than a few people make the mostly false claim that a review can't be objective in its nature. Not only do I disagree with that, I tend to make it a point in the reviews that I write to avoid unnecessarily interjecting my opinion into it as much as reasonably possible. A good written review is more or less an informative essay that is flavored with your unique personality with a sprinkling of your personal interpretation. To build the structure of a good review, I go back to the 4E's: Educate, Explain, Elaborate, Emphasize. Let's go ahead and take a look at each of those in detail. Educate Explain to the customer WHAT they are buying. Follow the What, Who, When, Where (the 4 W's) method. WHAT game are yow reviewing? WHO developed and published it? WHEN did it,or does it,ese WHEREwhich platforms) did it, or will it, release Explain After you've covered the basic fucts sheet, in this section of the review is where yo talk about emctly what the game is, What do you do in the game? What is the purpose of it? Are there aaditional under explained or not explained features (not shown on the box or in pre-release material)? How euch entertainment time should the average customer get out of this tirle? What genre is it? How much time did you spend with the product? There are more questions to be asked depending on the product, but this shod give you the general idea of what this section is about. Elaborate In this section is where you go into further necessary detail on featares in the game that are big enongh topics to not eusily fit into basic explanation. What is the big hook for the game that sets it apart from others of its genre? Does the game do something that no one else has done? This is its own section becanse yon may need to go into complex detafl to explain a mechanic in-depth, meique title features, ete In this section of the review is where you shouid put more dctail on quality oflife and quality of build. If it's a eent gen title with achievements (such as Steam Achievements, Xbox Achievements, PlayStation Trophies, etc) you wonld taik about them here. Does the game run at industry standard resolutions? Are there additional microtnansactions Will DLC be availabie? Are there big, notable issues such as bugs, screen-tearing, poor performance,cnashes, so on and so fortk? You will often hear people say "How are the graphics? Interpretation of artistic STYLE is suhjective QUALITY ofwork it as much as you'd think. Are the textures wushed out and muddy? Is it difieralt to see properiy? Are there clear and obvions typos? Is the audio for the game clear and free of baciground noise es, this kind of stuf DOES happen)? You should talk abot all ofthese things here Closing The final portion of your review should talk about your own eoperience with the titie and how you enjoyed it, ifat al. THIS is wbere the subjectivity of your review comes into play, as opposed to the other sections. Every person consume the content differently. Yow can talk about how much ficn that you had or whether your disliked the eoxperience overall. What were your impressions? What did you think of the art style and direction? How does it compare to other games of its genre, in your view? Does it do things worse than its competitors or better in your view? How did you enjoy the story, if applicable? Again, there is plenty of space here for you to show the reader YOUR interpretation of the facts preseuted in the majority af the product review is sunique and wil I typically avoid providing scores on my reviews. The reason being that no one can seem to actually agree on WHAT scale to use. People use stars, yes no, scale of to s and scale of i to o, usually. My general problem with these scoring systems is that the meanin名of them can vary wildly depending on who is looking at it. A 3 star review is 'supposed' to be average, but to many people it's considered mediocre and not worth your time. Instead, I say who is likely to purchase the title and who is likely to avoid the title. If, for example, the game falls into the 'brawler genre and you didn't have a bad experience with it, you can safely say that "Fans of brawlers will probably enjoy this title." This achieves two final goals: It defines who the intended audience of the title was, and who would do better to avoid it altogether. Now bear in mind, this isn't necessarily a blocked-out template for every review, it's here to explain to you WHAT should be talked about in review, why you're talking about it, and how to do so well. Your job, as a reviewer isn't to tell the customer what to buy. Your job is to INFORM the customer of what they COULD buy, should they be inclined to. You are their eyes and ears in places that they cannot venture, you are there to provide them with the data that they could not easily glean on their own. Happy reviewing.

Do you feel like GG is slowly leaning to simply promoting figureheads (such as yourself no offence) while backing off from actually having their own voices in the debate? Listen I understand the arguments from both sides in reference to some sort of leadership but here is thee reality 1) Leadership can work if you have a great leader but only if you have a great leader. They have to be on point at all times, they have to be eloquent, they have to be a great orator, a great organizer, and a host of other things. If they fail at any of these they kill what they try to promote. The greatest danger to any cause is the person who promotes it most. They become a target and their foibles and faults become those of the group they represent. 2) Groups have fallen apart without good leadership. Look at OWS, look at Chanology. You either have a complete absence of someone in charge or those that gain power, through their own character faults, hurt those they try and lead 3) GamerGate or whatever you want to refer to it as is different though. It's not a real world protest, it requires no physical action. You have no marches to organize, no protests to gather, no parks to camp in. It works as a decentralized consumer movement because it doesn't require the logistical support that a real world movement would 4) People are falling for a very simple ploy that has killed a lot of good ideas in the past. The idea is that to win the day they need to appeal to the middle/moderates/independents/uniformed and to do so they need structure and a refined message. This is false. What happens is that you go so far to the middle from your original position to sway those residing there that you are no longer distinguishable from those you are trying to convince; your message becomes diluted and loses meaning People are being suckered into fighting this on the terms the other side dictates, Behave a certain way, do PR a certain way, promote a message a certain way. But you see the other side is losing so why adopt thei tactics? People should continue to do what they think works, whoever wants to voice an opinion let them and if it has merit it will be adopted and if it does not it will be ignored. There are no leaders, simply envoys carrying the message of the whole about 4 hours ago 1 person likes this

Give it up for the neutral internet encyclopedia, everybody!

Nobody cares what the pro-GG crowd (which to be honest if one is saying they are po GG" then they are in effect pro sexual harassment thinks or feels in this situation their point-of-view is decidedly fringe. The sooner you and a few others get over the misunderstanding that "pro-GG" is an equal-weight opinion alongside what this is actually about, the better.
