Especially funny, considering Amy Hennig just got a standing ovation at GDC for saying that the industry was not inherently misogynistic.
GDC seem to be a minefield of opinions right know. I would not be surprised if there is a fist fight or something like that, AAA Devs seem to be more pissy about their indie colleagues shitting in the communal table.

I was listening the GB Bombcast today and the crew was saying they didn't go to the GDC because the lack of time but later were mocking it and saying that has become weird as is becoming less tech oriented. GB took a neutral position and they are SF based but Jeff have alluded that his opinion is actually less SJW friendly than their friends think.

Many people were mad about their Sketch against "gamer" concept in the beginnings of GG, but I think they were actually mocking it as a corporate buzzword (because it actually was, the demoderby videos paint a cringe worthy picture of the beginning of "gamer pride") and not outright declaration of war as Wu and Leigh tried too.

I think they know, even when they are (were?) friends with the SF clique, that this stuff is not going to last and the SJW indie alternative of NeoGamer is as bad as teenagers making videos as Captain PlayStation to get to e3.

Last time I remember the GDC (Game Developers Conference) was ran by the same parent company (UBM) that run the website Gamasulta which was the site that helped with the whole silversting campaign where 10 websites published "gamers are dead" articles.
 
If this has been posted my apologies!

inc.com is yet another site to run a piece on how great Wu is but it includes this choice line:

More than 250,000 people downloaded the free version in the first six months, and the sell-through rate for the $5.99 full version hit four times the industry average of about 2 percent.

Also, Wu quickly lowered her price down to $4 versus the $6 it started at, so these totals are going to be even lower.
 
Kinda looks like s/he had facial reconstruction surgery around the lip area. Could be it's always been in there but this dynamic lighting kind of exacerbates it.
It's nice to see someone writing an article that's more speculative than just kissing Wu's saggy man-ass, though.

She's Two-Face. Cover one half of the picture, then the other half.

**EDIT** No, wait! Baron Ashura from Tranzor Z!

See this is why it's stupid to bitch about her Patron. Even with that additional income she can't be living large if she's operating under 300k+ losses on development.
Her Patreon gravy train is undeserved whether she wastes her money efficiently or inefficiently. I could tell everyone I'm a damsel in distress just trying to make video games to reel in the cash, and I would be lying too.
 
Here's something: I had a horrible sitcom idea where Wu and Sarkeesian as roomies, blasting every single little thing as misogynist and bickering and arguing with each other. But it would be cancelled after 5 episodes and both complain about how the network officials are sexist a-holes.
And their zany neighbor Jace from across the hallway busts in periodically to yell to them how Obama's trying to kill their toaster.

Wu is the George to Sharky's Jerry. McIntosh is Elaine, and Jace is Kramer. It could be a show about nothing... except misogyny.
 
I've got the feeling that Wu's setting himself up as the biggest victim of GamerGate is really going to backfire.

I wonder if Quinn or that Anita freak will pick up the gauntlet.
Wu's been trying to make it seem since she was discovered that she was the biggest victim but Quinn and Anita haven't done much.

Also OT, but am I the only one who has trouble raising the hateboner for Anita instead of McIntosh? She's an actress but he's an ass.

I lost the ability to hate her the second I figured out she's there to be a pretty face for Silverstring Media's bullshit arm.

Yeah man, I hate everyone around her but she seems just to be someone caught up in the prospect of being paid. I don't think she's the ideological force behind fem frequency.

I hate Anita purely because she scammed people. Yes, those people were stupid to give her money in the first place, but specifically the dishonesty of the act really, really grinds my gears.
 
Pax East has begun. The same Pax Wu said she'll be going to. The same Pax that Wu openly asked on twitter for unlicensed goons to "throw down if called upon".

Prepare for a possible false flagging (made some post in the GG thread but I don't think everyone here reads that thread).

It's even better when you remember that Macintosh probably more or less wrote her Master's Thesis.(she thanks him for contributing to it) How much of her isn't some jackass's attempt at pinkwashing? The only thing I can be absolutely sure of is that she used to work for known con-artists.
