ArenaNet CEO Responds to Fired Guild Wars 2 Dev's Ridiculous Claims 

YongYea amazing video as always 👌 Btw nice haircut 👍

I don't think you need to apologize. If new information keeps popping up, then I think it's good to have someone cover it (in this case you).

YongYea no need to apologise it is pointless

No need to apologize, keep us informed, you're doing great work.

YongYea personally I despise right-wing trolls racist sexist and the like. Perhaps Jessica Price should look in the mirror because she just became the mirror image of a right-wing troll just left-wing. Instead of attacking women minorities and gay people like right wing trolls do, she just attacks straight white men especially if they have an opinion that differs from hers apparently. I read all the tweets the only one being an asshole and being sexist was Jessica Price.

Really? Who?

Matt Spinoza Total biscuit. She said things along the lines of I'm glad he is now gone.

A Blob yeah from what I remember a man lost his job for saying something similar... so what the hell.

Yep, she is using her sex as a shield to consequences.

I doubt she's stupid tbh. She knows exactly what she's doing. Maybe she accidentally fucked up and got carried away with the tweets, but after she got fired you can tell she's bitter af and trying to smear ANet.

Jim Beauchamp I'm guessing you don't watch Honey Badger Radio. That is mostly women taking a stance against feminism.

Jim, human beings are diverse. Some are good, some are bad, some have dealt with things in their lives that have driven them to do something that would be considered inappropriate. To say that "women" are emotional manipulators that are incapable of rational thought is a gross, unrealistic generalization. Saying something like that leads me to wonder what happened to you in your life to make you react that way, and it makes me feel like you aren't really that different from Jessica.

Jim Beauchamp too much generalizing. Take it Case by Case. Because you're leaning on the radical side that sits on the opposite of radical feminism. I hate them both.

EvilRickMaster Wow... honestly I'm not even surprised at this point. >_>

She is just way too passionate about her work. It's not unusual for professionals to be at odds with their criticizers, especially when criticizers are not in that profession themselves. She is very passionate about her own profession as a writer and takes criticism on her work very seriously. I am sure she equally hates other RU-vidrs who doesn't have any experience in game developing but talks shit about games for a living, although the lack of empathy towards someone's death is totally uncalled for. Obviously, she handled this very poorly, and I am pretty sure she has temper issue, fairly narcissistic, and has fairly below average EQ. But still, I don't think everything that had happened was completely unjustified (as far as the GW2 fiasco goes). It's unfortunate nearly the entire comment section is on attacking feminism, and no one is interested in having any form of productive discussion in this community. While it's true that Jessica was the one who VERY stupidly brought in the gender card, I don't think that's even the core reason why she was upset. She was upset because she cared too much ,and thought she can just say what she wants to defend her own work in a public medium. Extremely dumb, but understandable for anyone who possess a set of skill that often gets criticized unprofessionally by laymen.

J - RU-vid reviewers are there as the gamers they let us take a look at the game while giving us constructive (hopefully) criticism and just because someone like TB never made a game doesn’t mean he doesn’t understand them in the end I like games I can’t make one but I can tell you what’s fun about the game what’s bad and what could be improved etc and just because someone is passionate doesn’t excuse such behaviour

Ooh you mean the guy who shows off his IQ, yelled at his wife, blocking Twitter users for disagreeing with him, says get cancer and die, goes on a hunt for the person who made a joke about traps, and expects people too baby him when he's sad? Not saying I'm happy he died, but the dude was an asshole.

@@Mauriziobarenboim Huh sounds like your happy he died

You should write alternate history fiction, it'd be uncomfortably uncanny to read.

Thats probably why he was fired to be honest. The boss knew she would try it so he fired them both to take the ammo out of her gun. Teaches him to try and white knight.

When you realize he was probably fired to try avoid it becaming a gender issue

I just want to ask him if he smashed. xD

Normal World it'd make her Unhireable.

Sharky Thomas You're from the UK too aren't you?

deserve more like

Want credit for the T-shirt I'll be doing?

What t-shirt?

This is the most reasonable thing I've heard all day.

Damn!!!

K A R M A in her mind, no woman would disagree with her.

Every woman with a bit of a brain would disagree with her. Why would they? She is talking bullshit. And no matter what gender you are, you will point out bullshit. Or at least you won't stand behind the person who throws it around. But: It is rather clear that she would never start to think that the massive backlash is because she is the one running in the wrong direction, because she made mistakes and her actions where wrong. Thats just not a thought that crosses her mind, that much is obvious.

This! She literally attacks men for being men.....nothing more. It's obvious that she's the one with sexist issues. The guy never said anything sexist and her reaction to every person disagreeing with her is "fuck you, penis monster". Absolutly disgusting.

Yeah that bit puzzled me. And Yong was right to say she'd almost certainly bitch about him not being there if he wasnt. You cant win with such people.

pmt1103 and now she's dragging down all female employees in the industry essentially making them not worth the hassle of hiring in thw first place. Zero self awareness and foresight lol

"BUT I'M NEVER WRONG! IF A MAN CORRECTS ME ITS SEXISM!!!"

Yep. In any career that kind of behavior is frowned upon and it's usually something that is grounds for firing

agreed. And she still can't see what she done wrong, blinded by the feminism card as you say.

Just want to put this out there after rereading my comment. I'm all for feminism. Equal rights means equality. My comment is in no way trying to say that women are always wrong or anything of the sort. I firmly believe that women deserve equal treatment and this women just tried to use feminism as an excuse to come out on top and get away with it. And I am firmly against that.

At first glance, I would think this is hyperbolic. but I honestly do believe this is dangerously close to how it played out in her head.

When I first heard about this i thought that the firing was an over reaction. But after seeing how Jessica responded I believe the right decision was made. She seems to have a victim mentality with a toxic personally that would of been a disruption to the rest of her team. How many other people have we seen lately being fired that have taken it graciously even when their termination appeared to be unjust?

Fakjbf One crazy bitch.

Probably prertty much exactly how it went down. Unfortunately as someone with a fairly big window into this world (best friend was a curse presenter) I can promise you she’s not even close to the worst. They try and dress it up as some noble quest when truth is they know exactly what they are doing. Lying and exaggerating for sympathy. They ruin the credibility of legitimate women and men who are struggling with this sort of thing and it’s disgusting. She got exactly what she deserved. Good on you ANET for having some courage.

Feminist victim card play right there. It works too, given how some articles have been written...

She’s a dumb bitch

She should take time looking in the mirror and wonder outloud to herself "Maybe I is just a crazy bitch...yeah, I is crazy bitch."

And no surprise Anita Sarkeesian is joining the fray

kirby march Barcena she doesn’t wanted to give head to get ahead

And she ugly as fuck

So sad, she was actually making good points on her original twitter feed and the reddit AMA, when it comes to writing a story

She's so good at writing fiction that she's living in her own and making others believe in it.

How to get yourself blacklisted as a game dev in several tweets.

Paul Aulridge Jr I would not hire her under any circumstances. Doesn't matter if she's good at her job. That type of attitude and behavior is not acceptable

Geralt of Rivia I would say it's poetic karma

I have a feeling they wanted to get rid of her for a while and jumped on this (rightlful) opportunity to do so. And can you imagine working with someone like her? i'm sure most people there are glad to be rid of her too.

Geralt of Rivia The worst thing about her statement concerning TB's death is that it sounds like TB did something morally wrong/notoriously evil when all he ever did was videos and articles on the internet..

John Smith Yeah but he criticized people and some of those people were probably female so he was obviously a massive misogynist because of that! - Jessica's mind

Like, who the fuck celebrates someone dying....... Unless they're Hitler or some HORRIBLE HORRIBLE human being

So good to have someone in gaming trying to foster communication and goodwill

TheUnholyOne Mike O Brien is the Gaming CEO many publishers would dream of having as CEO (Activision, Ubisoft, Electronic Arse etc...).

Yeah, at the end of the day they did what was wholly in their right as an employer. Price doesn't have a leg to stand. And she has more to lose here than anyone else. It's usually a bad idea to burn bridges.. so publicly.

Chris "Burned" doesn't feel strong enough here. I'd go with "Nuked".

Yup.And,as an icing on the cake,I'm getting a feeling that GW 2 can expect an influx of new players as a reward for O'Brien's loyalty to the consumer and not SocJus lunatics within ANET's ranks. Good karma brings good business.

Weekend Warrior

Your boss is under no obligation to hear your side of the story. Especially when the justification is literally posted all over the internet. She had better believe that a man in her position would get chastised the same way and fired all the same.

Are you gonna make a video about this, WW?

Very likely it was why she was fired so quickly after this latest debacle. She has a history of toxicity.

can u tell me what she said about TotalBiscuit? People said she even celebrated because of his death, wtf?

I think it was "The kindest thing I can say is I am glad he's not around do any more harm" or something like that. And its just despicable in my opinion. I mean, I learned that if I don't have anything nice to say, I should just be quiet. She didn't even manage to just not say anything. But after all that has gone done, it seems like stepping down is just not her style. Just lash out at everything and everyone and claim every backlash is sexism...

VodkaFox Just as delusional as Jessica.

Polygon is the worst of all

Why's Ben Kuchera's still there???

VodkaFox polygon is a beacon of bigotry, selfriteousness and echo chamber delusion. I cannot stand them.

Same with kotaku. Regardless of the obvious bias they're just bad game journalists all around.

RedBeard I um, I saw what you did there ^-^

And both cases, written poorly as hell with a lack of coherent logic.

Gottteeeemmmm

After all her expertise is in creating imaginary worlds with fairies and shit

Best? I've played gw2 the story ain't great.

She's only a woman when she can use it to paint herself as more of a victim. She doesn't strike me as very feminine as much as she repeatedly claims she is.

That line tilted me immediately like, my boss is a woman younger than me and if i fuck up she can sit me right the fuck down and make me listen up. The only thing that matters is that she fucked up and she went off the rails, she needed to stay in her own lane.

No no no, this is them arguing women shouldn't have to work. Which I mean, she got what she asked for...

There's also Rock, Paper, Shotgun that stands for her, don't forget about those dummies.

UGGGH... ANOTHER SOCIAL HEIAR- I can't even feel comfortable doing this when I'm talking cheek. How do people do this?

Eyyyyy

I can hear Totalbiscuit laughing his fat ass off in heaven. 👏 😄

Got eemm

D E S T R O Y E D

to the top with you

Yep, that was what Gamergate was all about. That horrible, biased activism thinly veiled as "journalism."

Burn bridges, salt the fields, kill the cow, melt the plow and stole the horse on the way out.

Yep, she has a history of belittling members of the Guild Wars community, plus she celebrated Totalbiscuit's death. This was the straw that broke the camel's back.

AsciiGDL agree. Good thing there is still good company that have the guts to fire assholes regardless the gender

If not for your avatar I wouldn't pick up on seeing you everywhere. Hope your having a nice day :)

ssjwes I'm having a good day thus far thanks 😉 I hope your day and weekend goes well 😁

You're mostly right here, except for at this point she's enticed so much hatred towards her that I'm sure there are a number of people legitimately harassing her. Of course, that's not what created this incident, and not what any of it was about, but anytime there is an internet hate mob, justified or otherwise, some will ride the backs of that mob to get their kicks, harassing and threatening people.

It speaks volumes about the people supporting her.

Agreed.

Yeah, remember that time Hideki Kamiya attacked a customer on his twitter and never worked again?

Had a chick at my maccas that would straight up yell at customers, start swearing at them and fighting them etc.Would also bully some of the men cuz she knew she was hot and could get away with it. We were by far the lowest ranked maccas in our state and we were always on the border line of being shut down. Idk how she kept a fuckin job for so long and she only left by quitting not getting fired.

Dickhead Johnny Brain Damage prolly gave the manager head

Kelly Lee Same. Same. That she pulled the gender card in an original post that had nothing about gender at all. It feels like she's using feminism (as I imagine it was originally intended. As a positive movement for women) as a weapon and a shield to wave at other people. I don't believe this is how feminism should be at all. This isn't advocating for women's rights. It's flat out attacking someone who never wanted to start this flame war to begin with. People who can't take any sort of feedback shouldn't have their hands on communication to the public. Female or not. I'm potentially going into the game industry as a career, and this incident wouldn't steer me from Arenanet if that was where I was going to work. This just makes me embarrassed that someone would ever do this.

Don't worry guys, women are still fantastic. No one sees this as a mark on women, promise.

@@jeremyjohnson8844 I do not consider feminazis women.

I wouldn't want to be in the same room alone with her without CCTV out of fear of some sort of harassment claim.

Well thats why you don't hire the woman with ahe short red hair, facial piercings, tatoos, and lgbt pride t shirt, as long as you don't fo that you're good. And don't hire off of gender nor ethnicity, but rather the person's experience and how much of a hard worker they are.

WeAreLegion she is awful plain and simple, this is the chick ppl are willing to fall on the sword for? Smh, people sometimes i swear...

"Hey wanna grab lunch later?" "ARE YOU HITTING ON ME?! A WOMAN??!!!! THIS IS SEXUAL HARASSMENT!!!! SEE YOU IN COURT!!!"

Lmao, straight up. And she is the one taking about how they were making improvements on “toxic” work environment. She seems like the most toxic person alive atm

i've seen it be genuine before.

If her latte was not made right at Starbucks she would scream sexism. That type can't get off the agenda.

she clearly has some mental issues and that either mean she is a mean person and sexist at that, or that she has a sever mental trauma from before in that other company

She did something wrong, but plz no one take that as meaning they need to belittle her more than she already has herself by sending her insults, etc., however, spreading some truth on the matter when some of the websites were being biased in her favor is a different story, I hope she can learn from this.

or either she lied about what happened at her last job. feminists don't tell the truth anyway.

And that villain will have only one weapon, the almigthy RANDO-ASSHAT DELETER.

Well said ;)

dustyM don't go any percent Anita sarkeesian

i dont think shes going any percent anita sarkeesian, but whatever keeps your fragile self image afloat i guess

GGryphon ... Really!!!! you think she is the victim here, wow .. how delusional you need to be to not see her terrible and toxic behavior not just this time but plenty of times before, just wow.

TheHunterWolf lol what? she’s an asshole who’s trying to exploit a cause she doesn’t care about to get people on her side. Don’t put words in my mouth.

hubertET typical all tough and then damsel really quick to exploit.

Nah men are disposable so we don't care about them. Doesn't matter that he was far less vulgar or worked at the company over ten years.

ZyniX 36 that shit’s fucking sad

The news has become one of the most chilling works of fiction ive ever seen.

He wasn't vulgar at all. He defended her...

Yeah, that whole bit sounded like the loser, who has no friends, shouting that they're going to bring a big gang of people to beat you up. It's empty, meaningless posturing.

Who would be so mad to approach this tantrum-throwing, disillusioned and one-track minded big kid? She doesn't deserve a job in a customer-orientated industry. Doesn't deserve much, period. Way too hostile, arrogant and selfish.

LateNightGaming Exactly trying to say that there are issues where there are none only Hurts a cause. Also I don't think she actually cares about women at all I think she just wants to pass blame on something else because she knows she's in the wrong.

She is not the first to say something like that

I KNOW. That is what frustrates me so much about this. Mansplaining does actually happen but now everyone will think it doesn't exist because of her.

Third Wave Feminism doesn't actually care about women or women's issues as much as it does blaming everything bad that ever happens on sexism, men, and "the patriarchy".

Saying ("boy" who cried "wolf") is sexist!!!!! Correction: small person who cried wild animal.

Awesome! Same here, I used to go to Kotaku every other day but if this is the way they want to twist shit, I'm done with them

what gets me is, i dont understand how most of them keep their doors open. i don't know a single, i guess we can say "active gamer" who reads ANY of these outlets. not one single one. the only reason i even know about half of these media outlets, is from my games on steam showing "recent news". they are all trash and push the same damn narrative, and push the same broken products. when your front page is plastered with adverts from new games, how can i trust their integrity in the first place?

PewNews and YongYea are some of the reliable, not fake as fuck news broadcaster/media out there. Polygon, rock paper shotgun, kotaku etc doesnt count in there

And PCGamer, The Verge, BuzzFeed (obviously), pastemagazine, Fortune, and many more

Awesome! buddy where were you during gamergate? these fuckers have been lying bias scumbags for a long time...

All feminists need professional help. I mean they are seeing things that don't exist and acting irrationally. In another time that would be grounds for a padded room.

Game devs have it so hard, man, it's easy to see her argument here! We're just too entitled as customers. When will females ever get a break?! Guild wars? More like Man-Guild Wars, right guys!

IMO, she could have defused the whole mess simply by posting: "Hi, I don't want to discuss this here so please put your comments on the original thread." If he keeps pushing, block him. Problem solved.

Welcome to the world of people with a massive ego.

People like that only surround themselves with people who will agree with them. Anyone who doesn't agree is a faceless nobody. In her eyes everybody really does agree with her.

That might have been understandable..

Aries Fire Tiger We all know men can't experience sexism, it's only poor women who are oppressed by the evil patriarchy

“HURT MANFEELS”

Get out of here with your male privilege, human garbage

BadObserver please tell me you’re being sarcastic

Darth Revan You really need to check your privilege. (I'm just yanking chainsmy friend)

She's not the only one. I watched a video of a semi intoxicated woman who was violating the rules of the beach she was on force the cops who were trying to stop her to act and then claimed they couldn't restrain or subdue her because she was a woman. If you do stupid shit, it doesn't matter what gender you are, you get the same treatment as the rest of us.

This woman is not a feminst...

Quite disgusting isn't it. She's most def a psychopath.

I guess you have not heard about Anita Sarkaseen.

That's hilarious, Anet is absolutely horrible with balancing any of the classes along with their story being absolutely abhorrent. It just sounds like the guy in charge took advantage to boot folks he personally didn't want to deal with. If they cared about the fans then they wouldn't drop so many steamers on the lore, balancing, and gameplay issues

I think that's what down. She was called in a meeting & was forced to apologize, she refuse & then so got fired. 😂😂😂

I kinda felt bad for Fries until I realized he saw a category ten shit storm and walked straight into it.

iNShadows Anything for head.

iNShadows He just couldn't resist the damsel

Dehumanize Exactly. He felt as a man, that he should defend his female co-worker, even though she was clearly in the wrong. She's a feminist so she probably got offended that he felt the need to stick up for her so she probably didn't even appreciate his help and he got fired for it. Sucks for him.

Ghoul Dash *Women can't be sexist!* (Only filthy men can!!!!!)

just like every other extremist. people will say "feminist" and "SJW", but those are vastly different than "extremist".

Calling them extremist is wrong because this is the basis for feminism. There is nothing 'extremist' about the position they are taking inside of the group they are a part of.

This is not the basis for feminism. Feminism is somewhat misnamed and frequently misinterpreted, but started as a reaction to rather severe injustice including inexcusable abuse. Some extremists took the fight and ran with it, and now you have groups claiming they are feminist when they are seeking conflict and projecting all sorts of straw men to get targets, typically with an unhealthy backing of misandry. We've seen the same in many other fields, such as people claiming they can't be racist because their race has been oppressed (as have they all). This form of abuser tends to have not encountered the original abuse, and instead rely on the protective reactions as a shield or weapon.

Prove it then, because all feminist leaders have gone on record as rabid man-haters whose only goal were to attack men. Your generalized and extremely vague statement says you know nothing of statements from feminists like "Men are machines, walking dildos" "Man hating is an honourable act" "When a woman reaches orgasm she is helping the patriarchy" "All sex even consensual sex is rape" "I want to see a man beaten to a bloody pulp" Were all extremely common for prominent feminist icons in the 1900s. You don't know anything about the history of feminism so don't even bother trying to get into the subject. When all the leading figures of feminism was spouting stuff like this you don't get to say "oh not all feminists". You are objectively ignorant. Don't try to make your romanticised and fictional idea of feminism into a reality. It doesn't work with someone who actually knows the history behind feminism.

no , everyone seems to remember it

Judging by the comments on this video... Nope.

Is that illegal in usa ?

It's not illegal, but it's pretty distasteful.

What?!? She did that?!? So disrespectful >:(

That should always be a sign.

How come news sites called awful and horrible have comment sections open while the good guys often feel the need to crack down on community feedback? It's so WEIRD, isn't it?

They got the clicks needed to pay the bills for the month so why bother listening to people correct them for the bullshit article.

Some while ago I commented on an article regarding a gender issue and the writer just replied that I disagree with him because I'm a man (I'm not). I unfollowed them.

Let me just dust off the ol' progressive response chart. Let's see, female... who disagrees about gender issues with feminists... ah yes here it is. You have internalized misogyny because of patriarchal brainwashing

Black Sheep same, she deserves to be blacklisted from the games industry.

Spaghetti and Meatballs for blackballing. 😁

Defamation would only go through if Arena loses money over this debacle Guild Wars 2 is incredibly popular and if anything, Arena would get more of a gathering because of this

Corvo@AZ please tell me that’s a joke

Corvo@AZ dude ,delete this before a wave of angry people come at u with pitch forks.

Well being happy that Total died should've been enough to get her fired already. But hey better late then never.

Jason Wilson I feel like so many people are overlooking this among other factors

I bet that she received a written warning over that. This was likely strike number 3.

Yeah man, with how swift the response was I’m guessing this wasn’t Jessica’s first infraction. I’m getting the feeling she was given multiple chances and fucked them all up

It's normal for HR to be present when someone is getting fired.

if she hadn't done the last 3. She probably would still have a job.

+Jacob Palmer By your logic anyone reporting that they have a job with a company is open to having their account poured through and used against them in hiring/firing. Basically, what SJWs are already doing on the daily.

RecklessFire29 If you're part of a company you not only represent them, but you're taking its morality with you. Any society have its morality defined and represented by the members of that society, companies work the same. Thus, if you're part of a company and you say something in public that goes against that company morals, they will fire you.

+Bruno Hernandez Montenegro What's funny is she's probably one of these loony ppl who think ppl should be fired for what they do in private.

Bruno Hernandez Montenegro As much as I hate the argument of "freedom of speech isn't freedom of consequences" but it applies to this without a doubt. When an employee starts shitting on the people who keep you paid and all the other people who work for you, you get them out of there.

Hey, BioWare was respectable once and still somewhat are, it's EA she'd be perfect for.

Naww BioWare fully jumped the shark with Andromeda.

tofu6465 Bioware is made of multiple studios. Andromeda's SJW nonsense isn't necessarily indicative of Bioware as a whole.

Tye they invited Anita Sarkassian to take a look at Anthem. No it's pretty much the whole company.

tofu6465 once again, bioware isnt a complete feminazi cesspit just because they invited Anita to look at their game. They have a large number of them, but there are plenty of normal people there, too. One bad apple doesn't spoil the entire barrel here, strangely enough. (Plus, the bad apples will rot and fall apart, similar to the bad apple we have seen over the last week or so.)

She would have spun that as well and call "her" a traitor to her sex, she is a sexist herself so she will perceive everyone else of being a sexist against her regardless of their sex.

As a female that has played this card a handful of times with accounts that have gender ambiguous names, the only responses it seems to get is "Yeah right" or immediate sexual abuse with the intent to offend me.

I believe Jade meant playing the "By the way I'm female" card, when accused of being sexist to a woman. Not the "Sexism victim" card that Jessica Price played. (Edit: Some lovely person thought that seeing as Jade seemed to enjoy "playing this card", she deserved sexual abuse. For some reason that person has deleted their comment...)

Jon C. What if they are a trans black man?

Jon C. What does being gay have to do with hypothetical sexism and how would being gay turn the tables in any way?

BigBoi Keep your opinions to yourself, you filthy oppressive male!!!! You're probably even a filthy straight white male!!

BigBoi Being a woman who did something slightly wrong garners lots of hate. So yeah. I'd be blocking all death and rape threats.

Jack Heathen Welcome to the internet. Here's a tip: if they happened at all - they are empty. Personally, I think you, or whoever said there were threats are full of shit. This claim has been made far too much to be taken seriously.

'virtuous clapping'

SeFii the ultimate bullyhunter

BULLYHUNTER 78 confirmed?

SeFii lmao

SeFii ok. I giggle at this. You deserve more likes

Im waiting for the CNN interview, you know fake news

gamejournopros are at it again

Kiddy that would be Fox news

Or Feminist Frequency yuck!!!

Carbon Night both of them are stupid b she’d appear on CNN because they support the kinda things she’s saying

Nah, don't insult real sociopaths with this delusional douche. She's just a mediocre fantasy writer who got lost in her own little fantasy world and believed her own narrative BS.

RavingRoman she’s definitely crazy.

Narcissism is what this is flyingmonkeysdenied.com/2017/04/21/list-of-narcissistic-behaviors-commonly-symptomatic-of-narcissism/

No it's called feminism

blackcamcorder agreed

Josh Timothy Leonero Nah, she's sexist friendo.

I'm a feminist and I showed this whole drama to my other feminist friends and we're all mindfucked that there ARE people who think Jessica is right. She's the only sexist person in the entire drama, she was the only one bringing anything related to genders and she said ''manfeels'' WTF. How can you live your life, constantly thinking viciously against other genders? That's not healthy! The RU-vidr guy who disagreed with her was too precious and way too fucking nice to be a part of this -_- I feel so bad for him.

TWC... what the hell is wrong with you?

TWC Dude, calm down. Just because she is a feminist doesn't make her magically evil. Feminism in its core is actually to achieve equal rights for women. And hating them for these bad eggs is kind of unjust. We can't answer hatred with hatred here. Otherwise, these bad eggs will achieve their dastardly goals of just making the world a worse place. ( Completely neutral non-American or Feminist here)

TWC How am I responsible for what a nutjob woman said? I don't hate anyone. But if that quote is real, she surely shouldn't be a leader for anyone. And a quick google search shows that she was a nutjob and I don't like her views at all. But hey, surely I'm the hateful fanatic and you're a great person, right? Lol.

"clearly behave like we are too stupid and oblivious, as if we only gonna read this article and rely on it, like they are the only source of information." I've got sad news for you man, most people do exactly that. most people won't do research. i can 100% say that a large portion of anyone that learnt about this FROM the article won't look at the original tweet. people are lazy, and believe the first version of events they see.

I should link this too, because it's been studied before en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anchoring one of the many Biases that make people act irrational.

+Golden Witch I think you're overestimating human intelligence.

+Verdiumm I'll do it with a pain in my heart, but I can admit that I was acting like that too. It took me two years to realize my mistake, two years to realize my stupidity... It makes people awake at night, makes them want to go back in time and act smarter.

too bad that the target for that article was clearly the sjw crowd who, by definition, are oblivious for sure, probably a bit stupid and expecially tend to read only sources that side with their views. sad truth.

i wonder if there is a way for us to get the details

I wouldn't trust a word out of her mouth. The opposite of Tony Montana, she always lies, even when she tells the truth.

Indeed, "sexual harassment" is a scary term and rightfully so, but with the pointlessly hostile and blatantly false garbage this person is spouting, one wonders exactly what happened. "Hey Jessica, sorry to drop this on your lap at the last minute but can you take a look at the latest gamecode and check for errors?" "Drop in my *lap!?* RAPIST! RAAAAAPIST!!!!!!!!!!!"

She celebrated total biscuits death.... this wasn't her first strike

Companies tend to not divulge the reason for a dismissal out of professional courtesy. However if an employee tries to cause them a bad rap or outright lies, they will gladly publish their side of the story and publicly embarrass said employee.

Hey look at the bright side, a position is open ;)

I'm just gonna assume she's used to getting whatever she wants just by whining and playing the victim. If you can't do that, you won't get far in our modern society.

Dazer12 thank you! It really is frustrating to see.

osokari2 You misspelled "blacklisted" because no one smart is gonna hire her for designing a game with a reputation like this. She's a complete idiot.

I can't wait to see her eventually crumble into depression because of her own terrible awful choices and attitude. Good riddance.

Someone needs to mansplain this to her.

I wish this would actually wreck her career but I'm afraid with the state of the gaming industry and games media she might get away with it. I doubt she'll get her job back but she'll be able to move on.

not that likely that she'll get to work for a big company in a while tho. she should spend that time for self reflection.
