The industry is incredibly welcoming to women.
Not only is it piss easy for a woman to get a job in the industry, but game companies are grovelling at their feet removing anything that women could possibly consider offensive from their games.
Women just complain a lot and like to pretend to be victims

Because nobody wants to play a game designed by women, they don't sell and the majority of fans want sexually designed female characters. Most women in the industry object to this so they get weeded out.

>>320381118
>>Jessica is a BAFTA nominated composer and joint Studio Head at The Chinese Room

So basically she didn't do shit for gaming. She just made music and other people who are actually developers just used her music for one of their games.

Not to be disrespectful, she might have made good music for all I know.... but she ain't a game developer nor have any impact on the gaming industry at all.

Why is the media trying to push her as "People of the Year" for gaming? Are they desperate to use any female to push a narrative? It seems so.

I love when dipshits use this line. He's not claiming to have made any impact at all in the industry, therefore is a moot fucking point.

Going by your logic, Why aren't people thanking the cleaning staff? I'm sure these studios couldn't function without them; therefore are an important part of the industry.

Hmm... maybe it's because they don't actually do anything? They literally just bitch and whine, or camwhore on twitch. Not a single woman has done anything ever to help gaming in any way.

You know, maybe if those faggots didn't make such a big deal out of everything, people might actually be more inclusive. If SJWs didn't make such a big deal out women in video games, then maybe people wouldn't cry feminism when there's a female character in a video game

Wouldn't be bashing if it didn't cut deep, now would it?

You come to one of the most vile places on the internet(even with the influx of hugbox tumblrites like you) and don't expect people to use whatever ammo they have to attack you?

If I said any personal information about myself, I'd receive a cutdown related to said information.

plenty of women have had some influence in gaming industry.

they just don't go around shouting "I AM WOMAN, HEAR ME ROAR"
the same way male developers don't go around boasting about being male

actual gamers don't give a shit whether the one who made their game has tits or dick

so any woman who has to use their tits as a proof off skill probably hasn't got anything else to show

The lack of repercussions. The complete silence from authorities everywhere. I mean, if that was an issue as you people put it certainly there would be actions against it. It's almost like this all one big boogeyman to push an agenda, but that can't be it, right? Women are incapable of being dishonest, especially politically ignorant young middle/upper class ones who never had to face a single hardship in their lives.

the plot wasn't particularly interesting, but the themes of indulgence and depravity were resonant and it suited the purple prose, props and music very well

a lot more interesting than an alien ghost trying to get back to his universe by using a decoy who's being pursued by red splotchy stuff so he had to get him to torture people but then he went mental and gave himself amnesia or whatever happened in that game

She's leaving because she's got a progressive illness that's getting worse, doesn't like the atmosphere of a business publisher, and believing she doesn't get the credit she deserves when interviewers of the studio basically gloss over anything she's done since her husband does all the interviews and people just assume he's the brainchild of everything. Even when he says she's done a lot to help, people just laugh it off or assume he's just being humble.

http://www.thechineseroom.co.uk/blog/blog/why-im-sort-of-leaving-the-chinese-room

Can't say I've ever cared for anything Chinese Room has done, but I can't say I blame her for leaving. Her Husband still owns the studio too so may was well work on other things.

>Roberta Williams (born February 16, 1953) is an American video game designer, writer and a co-founder of Sierra On-Line (later known as Sierra Entertainment), who developed her first game while living in Simi Valley, California. She is most famous for her pioneering work in the field of graphic adventure games with titles such as Mystery House, the King's Quest series, and Phantasmagoria. She is married to Ken Williams and retired from her career in 1999. Roberta Williams is one of the most influential PC game designers of the eighties and nineties,[1] and has been credited with creating the graphic adventure genre.[2]

What fucking burns me up is that women have been in the gaming industry the whole fucking time and no one would actually care if it wasn't for the most fanatical of the SJW fringe screeching that women need to have a percentile representation regardless of ability.

So in fact the SJW fanatics are advocating sexism and intolerance by telling us that they need to have not the best person for the job, but the most female person for the job. And this is without any knowledge of the industry or any knowledge of the influential women in it. Women who had talent were never fucking excluded, just the shitters were.
>>
>>320389590
I think it's less about him doing all the work and more said interviewers belittling what she's apparently done. To be fair pretty much everyone has to deal with this though, since every project lead tends to get all the credit for whatever reason.
>>
>>320389819
because real developers, male or female, don't have to make a big fuss. they like their work and they enjoy doing it and that's enough. they can become famous through their work, but they won't consciously try to get in the limelight.

>>
>>320390552

Yeah the SJW just sees the status and wealth that the top devs have and don't see that it takes a very particular kind of person and success is independent of sex. They seem to think that the barriers are sexism instead of the combination of talent/creativity/hard work that to top tier people need.
>>
>>320380279
because they dont work like men and expect everything handed to them because they are weak and frail and shit, its fucking pathetic, we just recruited a bitch who is 21 straight from uni yet she has no idea how the gaming undustry works and she's my boss? im fucking 34 theres no way im going to let her stay long i will do everything in my power to break her.

and its not just me there are loads of guys int he industry fed up with this progressive bullshit, if women want to be recognized do programing and actually make something then instead of sitting in HR all fucking day
