Also, I think the idea of LRG going under after this is a tad overblown... They'll survive this scandal... People will forget about it in time, and it will eventually boil over.
LRG are owned by Embracer who have some fairly big pockets. They're not going anywhere.
I mean... If you think about it... Neogaf had a few scandals... And it's survived all of those.
Load of bollocks. They would of handled it internally beforehand without all the public fanfare.
Just discord mods wanting to act like insiders.

Damage limitation. LRG acted like a bunch of unutterable cunts, backed a mentally deranged deviant and are now suffering a backlash. Discord mods are probably a bunch of like-minded weirdos who like to shove My Little Pony's up their arses in front of children . They can all fuck off.

LOTT is a fucking gross little Twitter account that delights in spreading anti lbgt bullshit. Yes, it highlights a lot of the idiocy on the left… but it also spreads misinformation, hate and stupidity.
But no one should lose their job for just following it.

I was also banned by them a month ago. Checked the one reply to a comment I had left there and they had nuked every single comment, leaving one mod message saying "This is no longer a safe space, quarantine mode" or something like that. Shortly after, they got a reputation for banning lots of people so presumably they banned every single person who commented that day.
Never expect rational thinking from the mod leading the charge there, he has made himself a public figure on that subreddit because he clearly sees himself as some sort of revolutionary figure. They think they're doing it to troll all the bigots, but I don't think anyone sees them as anything but children when they're banning people for nothing.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I’m not particularly a fan on LOTT either
BUT
How does it “spread misinformation, hate and stupidity”? The account literally only reposts genuine content with minimal comment. As far as I can see they are not “anti-LGBT” but rather are against activism In schools, and pointing out that that the absurdity of what is now being taught in schools and supporting this with real content from those activists is not spreading misinformation.

Well, deliberately posting the locations and times of drag shows, knowing full well they would be targeted is one thing. They also falsly posted about a Boston hospital providing gender surgeries to children. If you signal post misinformation that's designed to target a community, you're part of the problem. It's run by a nasty fucking piece of work, that's for certain.

Uh how was the Boston stuff false? Libs posted vids of doctors talking about transition surgery for children that was part of their own marketing material.
And the locations and times of those drag shows are promoted by the organisers themselves…

If the Boston hospital thing had the facts wrong, it was only because a hospital representative gave the wrong facts. At that point, either the representative was mistaken, or the hospital isn't telling the truth. Either way, the one at fault wouldn't be LOTT. Normally when I hear someone got something wrong in their reporting, my first thought is that the reporter should have contacted the subject of their reporting first, but that's what they did, so I can't blame them for that.
I also think the situation got them labeled as "misinformation" by a media that is guilty of a LOT of misinformation, the hypocrisy of which isn't lost on me.
The locations and times thing, if accurate, we agree upon. Even if public knowledge, and even though posting about it is legally permitted, I do disagree with promoting events like that to people who will disrupt them. I generally feel that is a bad idea no matter who is doing it. I don't think anything constructive comes out of that sort of thing.

Bullshit. All it does is hold up a mirror. She lets the loons speak up for themselves. If they happen to be gay so what? Do you think the gay community is pure an incapable of wrongdoing? Come on you're smarter than that.

Children's drag shows are disgusting and should be met with pushback. Unless she's called for violence you have no case here either. Why certain demos have decided this is the new thing to push onto kids is beyond me.

Eh. I'd be fine with it, if that's all it did. Nobody likes laughing at the lefty loons more than me. But there's a lot of evidence to show that it doesn't just do that. There's clearly an agenda at work over and above just showing up the crazies, as shown by the amplification of stuff that's clearly misinformation. As ever with these kinds of contentious topics, the cunts are on both extremes of the situation. I'd frankly lock Purple Tinker and Chaya Raichik in a room together and throw away the key.

LoTT does more than that nowadays, let's stop with this "it just reposts videos" cause the account has been doing more than that for a while now.
Regardless of how much you agree with it, it's nowadays more akin to a political commentary than just a repost of weird Tik Tok videos.
I think it did an amazing job in showing what our kids are looking at on that miserable joke of an app, but right now it's pretty much another Matt Walsh. Again, regardless of how much you agree/disagree with it, the account doesn't just repost videos.

Politifact is political activist site funded by leftists and masquerades as a fact checking organization to the unwary.
Their "fact checks" rely on hair-splitting and obfuscation.
LOTT said that the hospital performs GA surgeries on "young girls". PF says it's false because the Children's hospital only performs these surgeries on 18 year olds and "young adults". Splitting hairs. A Children's hospital performing this surgery is still despicable. But at the most, you could say LOTT was misleading, but her claim isn't outright false. In which case, she's no different than most mainstream media sources.
The point here isn't to get political, it's just to point out that PF is essentially a PAC masquerading as fact checkers. They were founded to gaslight and run interference for political allies.
At any rate no one should be fired for following someone on social media. Our society is being run by demonic and mentally ill terrorists.

I wouldn't be worried. Most of those scum of society will buy the game behind the scenes anyway. Also I'm pretty sure streisand effect is happening.
They should be worry for how long they gonna keep this hate speech against J.K Howling. The moment she notices and discovers that plataform creates prejudice and hate against her she will probably take legal action.

Ree doesn't care about games. It's a cesspool for mentally ill activists who sometimes play games.
I'm religiously devout. If I stopped watching TV shows, listening to music and stopped playing videogames because the people who make them believe different than I do, I wouldn't have any entertainment.

I guess it shouldn't surprise me that facts about the audio recording of two people at the hospital claiming otherwise was left out in favor of vague self-serving language.
This is yet another example of why people have lost faith in the media.

"you can't tolerate the intolerant" is the excuse these people use. This only comes from them and they get to decide what constitutes as "intolerant" apparently following a trans person (Blair) is part of being intolerant now. Fuck outta here.

If that is the case, why for example Ragnarok has 4 time more posts in era OT than here?
Or why a smaller game like Devotion (which I've recently played and really liked) has 5 topics there and here we don't even have a single one?
I understand that a lot of people here hate that place, but what you said above is just not true.

This is false. They were outed, and then they scrubbed their YouTube page.
In this case, Politifact ran cover for BCH.
Boston Children’s Hospital gleefully encourages surgical, pharmaceutical ‘gender transition’ for teens
Dr. Oren Ganor, co-director of Boston Children’s Center for Gender Surgery, said in an email to WBUR that he is “slightly flexible” when it comes to the age of males seeking genital surgery.

My wife is a very big LGBT supporter. She’s bisexual and she ordered a copy of the game for PS5.
Devotion by Red Candle Games? That game is oozing with atmosphere. I’d play more games life that if they existed. A story about a Taiwanese family set in the 1980’s.
The popular outspoken horror fans are also on era. The ones who follow their social status because they’ve been recognized somehow by the industry.

I think some people can't separate the developers from the whole IP. Years ago, most people I knew loved Harry Potter, still do! And, I'm sure there are a lot of people that will be getting into Hogwarts' Legacy but won't express it due to possible cancellation from others.
"YOU'RE BUYING THIS GAME! YOU ARE A BIGOT!"
"No, the game looks really fun and I can't wait to play it!"
*YOU HAVE BEEN BLOCKED FROM PARTICIPATING IN THIS SUB. CIRCUMVENTION OF THIS BAN WILL LEAD YOUR ACCOUNT TO BANNED*
Another thing I realized is that, by those shitting on the game, you are actually spitting in the face of those who have worked their asses off on making the game, regardless of whatever J.K. Rowling's views are.
People wanna play some vidya games, life is hard enough already, let people have some escapism without your nonsense. Leave muhfuckas alone.

Unless I see the "pressuring" from the partners, I'll take this screen cap with a grain of salt. If those image links were the sources he posted, I can't read them and they aren't the partners themselves.Just saw this on Reddit

What doesn't help is the fact they felt the need to announce it. If multiple partners were hounding them to fire her, she would've been fired without posting a single tweet. But the fact they made it public when her affiliations weren't public makes this post harder to believe.

Those mods' statements seem bullshit. Assuming these are even mods, or formally associated with the company at all.
What were the business partners pressuring them to fire someone for following other people on Twitter and how would that even be tangentially relevant to them? She wasn't a high-profile representative of LRG. Only the resetarded harassment squad and the pedo-furry knew she worked there.
If they had really been "pressured" to fire this person and had done so "unwillingly", they'd do it silently without raising waves and they'd communicate it privately to the complainants.
The way they did it, with a public statement on social media, shows how they were virtue signaling and fishing for compliments.

The only fake portion of the whole Boston Children's Hospital story was the bomb threat they falsely reported to police to make it seem like they were the victim.
As far as the surgeries/medication on youth when considering transitioning they had to delete and takedown so many videos and articles referencing the very thing they were getting criticism for.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Not only that, but Resetera has a huge signal/noise ratio problem. Because they don't have post reactions like GAF does, you sometimes get pages and pages of people posting "this" or "first post nails it". More noise doesn't mean better discussion.
