The moment the dude in the video said gamergate i saw where this was going and close the video.

My cue not to watch the video.

I refuse to touch that horseshit with a ten foot pole.

I am, but some things need to be exposed like Schafer's antics. I guess I can make a thread later about what I mean when I say i'm tired of the negativity.

Isn't exposure the same for the other threads although I guess people where alreally starting to find out about WB antics without Jim Sterling to point it out. Tim Schafer on the other hand less people would know about so I guess its about how big the news would make headway. Funny how a year ago people where cheering for Tim at Sonys E3.

Well people don't like people who support people trying to ruin their favorite hobby. If that makes any sense lol

I'm not going to watch the video. Why? Because whatever you say about the guy, he did start up one of my favorite companies in the gaming biz. Double Fine has a more than fine record. Yes, sometimes they do not deliver their games in time, but that just means I'll play them later. I just started Broken Age and it's a lovely game. Spacebase is their one mistake, but because they're a smaller company I'm willing to let that one slide. And yes, Ron Gilbert may have been the mastermind at Lucasarts (Monkey Island is one of my favorite series of all time), but Tim himself has a great track record as well, with Day of the Tentacle and Grim Fandango.

And the allegations of him being corrupt? Whatever, if he's committing a felony I am not the one to judge... We have judges for that. If he's not breaking any laws AND he's making games that are fun to play, as well as giving people the chance to make their own creative games at his studio (amnesia fortnight, etc.), don't attack him for being a human being and making the occasional mistake.

Sorry for the rant, but all this negativity on the Internet can get to me sometimes. Can't we all get along? *insert rainbow picture here* XD

I feel ya man the negativity sucks. Im just pissed at Schafer for supporting the garbage side of gamergate. Thats why I said I didn't agree with everything in the video. I actually think Broken Age is a fine game(no pun intended). Ok maybe intended.
