@redneonglow RIP One Angry Gamer, what a shame, I really liked how far-right the site and readership had become.

@ChristiJunior @redneonglow Oh damn... OAG was one of the last honest-to-good gaming blogs. Dunno what Billy did to be forced to sell it.
In fact, they already got rid of the comment section ( the best part of the old OAG tbh ). So yeah, forget it. They will Memory Hole all articles critical of leftism just like Tech Raptor did when it went through it's "change of management".

@TheMadPirate @ChristiJunior @redneonglow wasn't gamergate about getting politics out of gaming journalism

@Moon @TheMadPirate @ChristiJunior @redneonglow it mostly boiled down to disclaiming there is personal/financial/etc involvement with the journalist/publication, which I think they now do.

@why @Moon @TheMadPirate @redneonglow That's definitely not what it boiled down to. The Anti-SJW aspect was always a HUGE part of it, as was the anti-Censorship aspect.

@ChristiJunior @why @TheMadPirate @redneonglow there was a big push for "objective" game reviews, which is retarded, but I understand what they meant.

@Moon @ChristiJunior @redneonglow @why It means going back to way Video Game Journalism was done in the 80s and 90s.

@TheMadPirate @Moon @redneonglow @why At this point I've completely given up on "professional" game reviews anyway, and if I hadn't already, the Last of Us 2 shitshow would have proved decisive.

I now go by personal interest, gameplay footage and user reviews.

>I now go by personal interest, gameplay footage and user reviews.
Too bad game developers/publishers are trying to manipulate those as well through bot accounts, false DMCAs, etc. Hell, when TLoU2 leaks happened, Sony DMCA'd a relatively obscure imageboard that I frequented.

@xianc78 @ChristiJunior @TheMadPirate @redneonglow @why SPC got DMCA'd and shut down for about an hour because of a photoshop joke of TLOU2 that wasn't even a real screenshot of the fucking game.

@Moon @xianc78 @ChristiJunior @TheMadPirate @redneonglow it was a crop of a screenshot from the leak, and the edit was fairly subtle. justified according to law

@why @ChristiJunior @TheMadPirate @redneonglow @xianc78 the image they linked me to was a photoshopped senator armstrong made to look like the transgender girl, with huge muscles. I have never actually played the game so I don't know I guess.

@Moon @ChristiJunior @TheMadPirate @redneonglow @xianc78 yeah it was just the head, maybe the body was smudged a bit.

also fyi abby isn't trans just swole natty because dad dead sad angry
