Perhaps, but it doesn't change the fact that Fox News isn't what's being discussed here. It's nothing more than a slightly more relevant "why are we arguing about X when Y is such a bigger issue?!?!?!!?" ploy. Something utilized when you know you can't defend your actual position.

It's just a red herring. He's trying to distract people from the shit he says by going, "Well gaming journalism is bad, but THESE GUYS OVER HERE are waaaaaaaay worse!!"

You guys are right. Games journalism may be small potatoes but it should still be held up to a higher standard. I've known game journalism was shit since IGN gave God Hand a 3/10 and then brought in another reviewer to defend that rating.

I do wholeheartedly argree with the ethics part of GG, but the anti-SJW thing is not something I buy into. After all, if creators and gamers want to bang on about how games are becoming/have become art (something I agree with) they deserve to be treated like art and examined from various perspectives.

It's kinda like how I don't like a bunch of modern country music because I feel it demonizes modern culture while romanticizing the way things used to be. Stuff like that "Automatic" song that plagued my work days this summer. My sister disagrees with me and tells me to listen to the music without thinking of the lyrics (she loves country, btw)...yeah right. If you just want me to listen to the music, don't give me lyrics.

BTW, love Drunk on a Plane.

I partially agree with you, but most SJW criticisms are just a lot of pot banging. Some critics are more valuable than others.

EDIT: Sorry if this was off-topic, sometimes I get the Dobson and Depression Quest threads mixed up because Dobby won't shut up about #gamergate.

Then they'll suck the dick of whatever the Final Fantasy series craps out.

Personally, I'm just getting sick of how blow out of proportion this whole GG is getting.

You and I both.

Meanwhile, in unrelated news...

Is it just me, or does Dobson Bear look creepier than usual in this comic?
 
The shape of those thumbs disturb me. But of course I'm just a hating hater troll if I point out that thumbs do not look like that unless they're broken.
 
Moar activity.

Dobson and atheism.

Now for some DeviantArt stuff. He made a journal about this 4chan GamerGate shitstorm.

Serious question: Does Dobson have anyone he talks to offline? Because this guy tweets like it's his full time job.
Presiona para expandir...
I would be surprised if he has any offline friends at all. With his salty attitude and constant patronizing tone, I'm astonished he has as many online asskissers as he does.

How is it that even when he has a point, he's still an asshole?
Presiona para expandir...

Because he doesn't really have an opinion as much as that he just latches on to a cause and defends it in an incredibly obnoxious way to get attention. I don't think he's actually passionate about any of the things his blue comic bear is always whining about, he's in it for the praise only. He couldn't care less about gamers or feminists or diversity... he just cares about having as many people as people see his comics and lick his ass in the comment section.
 
I'm thinking of doing a sort of parody mashup of Dobson's work.

I'll take the panels from SYAC and replace the dialogue with stuff from DYAC.

Then I'll add some arty filter effects for no reason.

He is a-logging like a mofo in those tweets.

His autistic brand loyalty really latched on to strange things.

He isn't wearing the fedora.

He's already creepy with the fedora on, so I don't see why he didn't need it.

If he does, who wants to bet that they're just a grumpy and pissed off as he is?

Oh and I read about the 4Chan thing just before posting the comic with Mr. Lucas. Once you realize that not even they make the same sweeping generalization as Dobby does. You know he's fucked up big time.
