Because if you don’t go voluntarily, you will be assigned with the shittiest tasks that are purely there to break you until you leave. Like Konami did by letting you sit in an empty room to do absolutely nothing.
fancy text saying: Bro, no one cares about your dick size (mine’s bigger) Just take a shower and maybe ask me if i’m doing anything this weekend. along with a picture of a girl in tracksuit with lots of snacks meow :3
Reminds me of that one greentext when anon went outside and actually met normies for the first time. He was genuinely flabbergasted that they did talk about mundane shit and not about sex and their genitalia.
Always thought these kind of stories are just trolls having fun. Then I met one of them. Turns out monsters are real.
Despite no one denying that any of the mentioned things by Bowling, it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed.
These are not cases of people saying stupid things once that made others uncomfortable. They did this shit repeatedly. You do not send your junk to others and go “WHOOOPS! My bad! Won’t happen again. Pinky promise ❤️”
Shit has actually a strange history to it. At the beginning there was an online group by and for involuntary celibates. It was a place where people could come together and try to process their situation. The loneliness, the depression, etc.
Now comes the M. Night Shyamalan plot twist: The founder was a woman. They came up with „invcel“ as short for involuntary celibates. Which later turned into „incel“ because it sounded better.
So, things were going dandy and that group did some good to help people. After some time she left the group. Just moved on to other projects. With her leaving the site started to (for a lack of better words) fucking degenerate. The whole movement became what we all know and hate today.
This has nothing to do with the shitstorm (it mostly hit Arrowhead anyway), and I think the review bombing didn’t affect their decision making that much. What I think happened was, Sony saw the massive refunds. They got hit right into the wallet 😩
Nerd Rage has never accomplished anything. It hurts the wrong people and the best part is, the companies will continue to flourish, this includes the guilty ones. Gamers are some of the least consequential people on this planet after all. It is absolutely ok to vent your frustration and demand a refund. Voting with your wallet is a great way actually. But going for a community manager is just cruel and childish.

To most of us, this is probably just a summary of events over the past year or so. But, it’s good to know that this sort of news is reaching non-gaming channels.
The Supreme Court of India’s debate on child pornography’s potential semi-legalization comes amid an ongoing debate in the nation regarding the criminal status of marital rape. According to Supreme Court Observer, a decision is currently pending to determine if marital rape will be made legal in the country, as it is currently not considered a crime in situations where the raped “wife” is not a minor.
Yeah, no. Fuck this country and every single person who stands by this shit.
