Biggest journalistic cabal still exists

>biggest journalistic cabal still exists
daily reminder

This isn't Video games.

If this is the biggest journalism controversy in gaming to you that just means youve been living under a fucking rock

>caring about video game journalism

bunch of children

bro, you realize GG is what caused moot to leave right? It wasn't the guy on Sup Forums who murdered his gf and posted pics of her dead corpse. It wasn't the fappening which brought a lot of heat.

It was GG, the most trending thing on twitter of 2014 that carried on into 2015. It broke moot, he realized he couldn't control a SFW board.

This is the trouble with people being able to operate in unionized environments, you can destroy a company but to go after the individuals you have to jump through a thousand more hoops. It's individuals, not companies that need to be held responsible for bullshit journalism.
>>>/new/

>immediate dismissal of reality
yes, it might be nice to live in denial. but they are a detriment to gaming as a whole.

and no, it really is the biggest one that continues to effect us to this day.

>but they are a detriment to gaming as a whole.

Don't care. I've grown out of video games and I'm happy to see them burn for you.

Pretty sure Moot just got tired of dealing with /new/2.0 and plebbit entering the site. GG was going to happen regardless.

He mentioned that stuff a bit in that 6+ hour ama he did.

not him but why the fuck are you here then you miserable fucker, fuck off to whatever new hobby of your choice

Moot left because he felt guilty. That's all.

>I don't like this thing anymore
>so no one else can enjoy this thing

To spite you

How young do you have to be to not want vidoe games to crash?

Not that user and I think he's being a bit retarded but he's correct in wanting video games to crash.

How bitter do you have to be to live like that

>you realize GG is what caused moot to leave right?
>tired of dealing with /new/2.0 and plebbit entering the site.

Neither. It's fappening and actual lawsuits that followed and cost him money on lawyers, not GG or Sup Forums that had literally no impact on him.

>people who live off click baiting and ad revenue make up stupid, shitty click baiting titles and articles

K.

Why would I do that

I enjoy video games

moot wanted to ditch Sup Forums for years.
Don't you remember canv.as?

I'm sure you do, cancer,

>Gaming journalism
>Important things

choose one, OP

I've already won

I enjoy good games. That's why I don't like shit games flooding the market.

>pics of his dead gf
was it that one guy with the freezer full of limbs or whatever?

Haven't seen a good console game in a long time.

w-wait, what is this about a dead gf and pics of her corpse? w-when did that happen?

Moot always wanted to leave and should've left far sooner. It was pretty clear that he didn't really give a shit about Sup Forums and just wanted to disassociate himself from it for a long time.

no, it was some dipshit who strangled his naked gf in her home or something. Took pics of her corpse laying there dead and posted it on Sup Forums about what he did. She had a young son who came home from school to find her dead and the guy was later apprehended that night. It was all over most news networks.

Google David Kalac

Hold the fuck up.
Hold the fucking fuck up.
Is that a guide to a QTE?
Is that really an entire page dedicated to what should just say "Push the buttons as prompted on screen"?

first post best post

there was also a guy on /r9k/ who cut his balls off for a thread and did each step in response to what posters wanted

You really underestimate how casual sonyggers are.

>ED

What is this, 2010?

I'm not sure why Sony gets so much flak when Microsoft does the same thing except with less games. Is it because of the fanbase?

>carrying some girls stuff
>shes not his gf

Damn it moot.

>Sup Forums used to always use pastebin or a webarchive link to bypass game journalists' bullshit
>gamergate happens
>It is now uncool to use pastebin or a webarchive link for game journalists' websites even if they're pure fucking scum like Kotaku
fags

Well it wasn't like he was going to use them for their intended purpose so it makes sense.

no, but ed is still a reliable place when it comes to hosting shit like pics of dead bodies.

It's because of the less games, M$ is barely in the running anymore.

Sony is popular so they are bad

thats literally his reasoning

>less games
>Microsoft has less than no games
Says a lot about the state of the industry, huh?

Remember when "Gamer+" was supposed to be a thing? What even happened to that?

Like almost everything related to that entire fiasco it fell of the face of the internet. Now all that's left is peoples disdain for journalism (which they already had) and e-celebs like Wu. Also /aco/ sometimes has Vivan threads.

I've been considering it

The whole game is a sequence of QTEs and they gotta fill the pages with something.
Sure they could've not made the guide in the first place but want money.

>I often say I'm a video game culture writer
>but lately I don't know exactly what that means
Fuck I don't even know what that means.

Doesn't matter , with the amount of Gamedropping that happens daily in the media they are irrelevant now.

Nobody does.

edgy faggot

yeah, it was the gross me-mes that made him leave, sure

Gaming journalism is for degenerates anyway and only tards listen to them, who gives a shit

I fucking wish it was

What a weird few weeks.

Japan will always exist lads.

It's existence is untouchable, and beyond anything that could be harmed by egomaniacs, narcissists left-wing retards.

8 billion years in the future japan will be FUCKING GONE GUARANTEED

>nullsleep

It's the collusion that gets me. Those articles were published on the same within 2hr window. They have their own mailing list which means their opinions are not their own.

>doesn't like video games anymore
>browses and posts on Sup Forums
Why are you here. Go to a board where you could actually have fun.

The queation is which one is the leader?

>we got sold to a known conman
>now I routinely wake up to a nebulous "your area has been blocked due to abuse :)" and have to reset my IP just to keep posting

They don't exactly have a leader, but they regularly jack off to muh indie devs who make shit non-games like Gone Homo, because it scores them brownie points within their clique.

Talk about a kid scarred for life finding that.

I personally think it was the whole cuck a duck luggage lad thing that tipped him over the edge. Basically Sup Forums finally started playing his real life decisions against him and that crossed a line. Everyone always called him a fag but to actively peek into his personal life and mess with it went too far for him and he needed to distance himself. He could never have a normal life while he owned a site filled with sadistic/psycho fucks like us.

I remember that. Presumably it died because it didn't actually have anything to do with gaming.

Well im fucking your mom.

Same thing that happened to Atheism+

A huge amount of the lower to mid tier gaming press know each other.

They all hang out, a lot of them live in san francisco.

A lot of these same people all tried to label James Rolfe a sexist/racist because he didn't want to review ghostbusters 2016 in coordinated articles, too.

You realize that mailing lists are commonplace in journalistic and academic fields right?

I legitimately cannot wait for "gamers" or "gaming culture" to die out. It's so shitty and stupid. After all this is over and SJWs and reddit-tier "Gamurs" kill each other off in some stupid shitfest video games will just go back to being entertainment that people can just play and then move on from instead of obsessively trying to piece their entire life and personality around (complete with shitty Razer GAYMUR-PRO gear or TEE HEE YES I'M A GIRL streamers).

fake

You do realize that said mailing lists ensure that only one opinion, the one the colluding fuckers deem correct, ever gets out, right?

gaming lately is shit so im glad

I have yet to find a reason to give a shit. I don't read them so I don't care.

So when is the sjw fad gonna end?
Are all the attention whores who cut off their dicks gonna kill themselves?

They will express the opinions they hold, if you don't care about them (I don't) just ignore them.

They're right. Casuals are becoming way more important a demographic then """"""gamers"""""", whoever that means, are.

>opinions they hold
More like the opinions their clique holds. You have no idea how helluva drug group pressure is.

It won't.
The new way to resolve conflict is to appeal to a higher authority and have them resolve it for you. They'll only do that if you look victimized enough. So oppression olympics are here to stay.

Reminder that it's Sup Forums which got Trump elected
Reminder that Sup Forums is owned by japan
Reminder that japan avenged its defeat in WW2 by putting Trump in power and starting civil war in US

Who made you the arbiter who decides whether people actually hold an opinion or were forced to do so? Did you ever doubt the legitimacy of someone who hold opinions close to your own? I suspect not.

>Sup Forums got trump elected

Yeah, sure we did, user.

Sure we did.

Its the dying off now user. The SJW's are mostly resorting to circlejerks. And the bigwigs are finally realizing that its not that effective as a marketing tool.

Since when playing video games was an identity?

Have you really never seen someone refer to themselves as a gamer?

>Reminder that it's Sup Forums which got Trump elected
Sup Forums is the collusion between the Russian government and Democrat's incompetence?

>complaining about range bans

Dumb phoneposter.

lol , no

In the real world? No.

about early 90s I think.

not an argument

When you are a fucking journalist you should not organize fucking article bombs that are basically "FUCK YOU MY TARGET AUDIENCE" because your clique is buttmad that their pet indie faggot got trolled on the internet then it's a clear case of being a fucking colluding retard

neither was yours.

of course nothing lasts forever but nothing will probably change for few more years

Reminder that gawker is dead.

>luggage lad
I'm not sure if I should ask.
I tried hard to avoid this.

what happens when you go to their website user.

>implying I will ever go to their website

Neither will I, but, a simple google of events will tell you that no, gawker is still in operation and was bought by someone else.
