She sounds unhinged as fuck.

 

[Samrf89]

i called her a crazy bitch

 

[remember_spinal]

this chick is going off about how she came up with the name and idea for rivet and it wasn’t even her idea. Some intern just called her out

 

[Javthusiast]

I knew those rule 34 pics I saw of her were canon.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Snowflake culture at it's finest. "boo hoo, I was raped online"

The real quesiton, How big was his e penis?

 

[Quasicat]

All of this and I figured Qwark would be the first to push these boundaries:

 

[Bonfires Down]

Ok, that tells me pretty much all I need to know about this person. The fact that she seems proud rather than embarrassed of it is just the cherry on top.

 

[Rivet]

Rivet Is this true?

Yes, I must say I feel attracted to women.

 

[McCheese]

Must be a nightmare trying to avoid these nutjobs in California.

Not really, companies drill it into their HR department that they need to be seen as progressive, but the only minorities who want to get into the overworked and underpaid video game industry are men with pink hair, or cosplaying women with daddy issues who crave working in a male dominated workspace so they can flex.

You do get some genuine women and minorities, but they would get hired either way because they are actually skilled. So the companies are really just sabotaging themselves hiring these people.

Look where she went to next, magic the gathering and social justice comics. Everyone who hires these people end up losing money

[Shifty]

The J. K. Rowling effect at work again.

 

[Dr Bass]

You know ... based on how she comes across in that other video about GTA, I think the title of this video might specifically be only referring to her "head canon." I don't think Rivet's anything in terms of what Insomniac thinks if ol' Maggs was complaining and whining this much about everything on the job.

Will she beg IGN to update the article again or has she got what she wanted and that's that.

 

[teezzy]

Rivet feet

 

[Teslerum]

This is how I feel whenever someone just has to link to some crazy devs twitter fantasy.

 

[PhaseJump]

All my fellow Canadians on GAF, we need to collectively combine our shit posting magical power into one big stereotypical apology on behalf of this woke sister of ours.

Clearly we need to do better at training our students in "literatures of modernity"

 

[SoggyBiscuit]

Rivet feet

Wrong search engine dude.

 

[LordCBH]

Also, isn’t this the same unstable bitch working on KOTOR Remake?

 

[BadBurger]

I don't care what sexual orientation this alien in a kids game is (or why it would even be something writers would think about), but that woman comes off as completely unpleasant and a disruption to any workplace.

 

[Goalus]

Her tweets come across as being unstable. I bet this is only half the story

She should get off the internet for a while to decompress.

 

[Javthusiast]

Isn't she the one coming up by destroying comics with woke shit until joining game development?

 

[Dick Jones]

I imagine she's not getting another shot at writing Rivet.

She also wrote the Bible, In Cold Blood, The Da Vinci Code and the Magna Carta.

Edit: She said it was a team effort. The name Jesus was picked from a shortlist.

 

[McCheese]

Wait what, so she didn’t even come up with the name? After kicking up a stink about it.

She blatantly says she named her, praised IGN for correcting the article to say she named Rivet, then someone name dropped the intern who actually suggested the name and she says yup that’s true but it was a team effort or her guidelines they used to come up with the name…

Complete nut job.

 

[dDoc]

Twitter was a mistake.

Didn't someone high up at Insomniac say in an interview that diversity hires are a priority for them?

Keep up the good work lol.

 

[AJUMP23]

This is dumb.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Also, isn’t this the same unstable bitch working on KOTOR Remake?

She quit

Social Justice Activist Sam Maggs Announced She Quit Knights Of The Old Republic Remake

Social justice activist Sam Maggs, a former writer at The Mary Sue, announced she quit working on the Knights of the Old Republic Remake.

boundingintocomics.com

 

[Bragr]

She sounds like she was a real pain in the ass to work with.

Yeah jesus, she sounds like shes 10 and someone stole her pencil. Attacking coworkers on twitter is some childish nonsense.

 

[Mibu no ookami]

Also, isn’t this the same unstable bitch working on KOTOR Remake?

No she quit after 9 months on the project.

 

[teezzy]

Wrong search engine dude.

 

[captainpat]

Neat. But are they going to make her a mainstay in the franchise tho?

 

[Oddvintagechap]

BTW Im pro the character being gay.

But it seems like she left, she doesnt have a say. Leadership disagreed with her creative stances. And the name isn’t all that. LOL. What your boss says goes.

 

[BaneIsPain]

I'm guessing this type of people dominating in western gaming development, yeah? The one that emphasizes sexual orientation.
Someone needs to tell them most gamers dgaf about this. If something can be rule 34, it shall be.

 

[retsof624]

Cute. Game is still forgettable though.

 

[Holammer]

For the next R&C game they should have Rivet thirsting over Ratchet the entire game. Get some of that old 'will they or won't they' sexual tension in there, complete with a curvy new costume for her.

That or end her like Poochie.

 

[remember_spinal]

 

[adamsapple]

 

[The_Mike]

Thank God they cleared that up!

Said nobody.

Not even the mental gymnastics forum gives a shit about it.

Jimbo should hold Druckmann on a tight leash with his sjw infestations.

 

[Fahdis]

Yes, I must say I feel attracted to women.

Funny you should say, me too. And I'm a straight man. Just making it clear. This is how this works right?

 

[chromhound]

You know, when I'm playing videogames, I'm always wondering what the sexual preferences of the characters are...

Just like Battlefield 2042 lol

 

[Dick Jones]

The icing on the cake is her tweet to an intern who called her out about who came up with the name is saying to pass on her saying hi to the team. That's how much of a fucking mess someone is that they don't stay in contact with any work colleagues. Roaring out lomax tiddies at work colleagues is sackable in almost every place of employment.

 

[InfiniteCombo]

How empty must this woman's life be to get agitated on the Internet about the sexual orientation of a:

1. Fictional
2. Digital
3. Anthropomorphic
4. Animal

As many others have already said in the thread, she actually sounds very unstable.

LGBT-GAF, this woman (and people like her) is doing your cause NO favors.

 

[Umbasaborne]

I mean thats neat, but also we live in an age where gay characters is pretty normal and accepted, its not the brave statement it was a decade ago

 

[AJUMP23]

If she was brave she would say rivet is an evangelical Christian. Clank a Mormon. And ratchet a Greek Orthodox.

 

[Gravemind]

This is fucking retarded.

Who cares about the sexuality of an animated cartoon character? Thanks for the pile of useless info bozo bitch

 

[digoutyoursoul]

I wish I could play games one handed

 

[8BiTw0LF]

Okay

 

[FunkMiller]

If she was brave she would say rivet is an evangelical Christian. Clank a Mormon. And ratchet a Greek Orthodox.

In America, if she was brave, she'd have said Rivet was an atheist.

It's a fucking kids game. No sexualities need to be addressed.

 

[remember_spinal]

 

[Lone Wolf]

It's a fucking kids game. No sexualities need to be addressed.

being an atheist on twitter is nothing revolutionary or brave.

 

[Arcadialane]

Its a western developed game, assume every character is gay unless outed as straight by the developer.
