Was shit pay the real reason for leaving?
who?
>>342956432
Austin Walker, he worked for giantbomb for about a year.
http://www.giantbomb.com/articles/the-community-spotlight-06252016/1100-5467/
>>342956179
i realize that most shitposters here don't understand ambition, but many "normies" will jump on an opportunity to start their own thing. vice is giving him his own fucking site.
Nah, Giant Bomb make plenty of money, i'm sure he was paid somewhat decently for being a journalist.
Going to be real funny when this new site doesn't last a year though.
>>342956559
I don't know much about Giant Bomb, but wasn't he an annoying motherfucker or am I thinking of someone else?
>>342956587
That's because Vice knows jack shit about video games.
They interviewed Brianna Wu about Quiet's possible transgenderism and how it could potentially hurt real life transwomen.
They had no fucking idea what they were doing.
I'm glad Austin left. He's a fucking snake.
As soon as he warms up to you, he bites you and injects his shitty SJW rhetoric.
He couldn't even have ONE fucking last episode without dragging intersectionality and all that bullshit into the conversation.
>>342956850
He was pretty much the black equivalent of Patrick Klepek, but with a shitty degree in newspeak.
Who even reads Vice's shitty gaming articles? They somehow even manage to be more absurd, clickbaity, and uninformed than the trash on Kotaku and Polygon.
He probably gets double the money and be the head of a site. How can he refuse? The site will also do things he wanted to do, he realized that giant bomb is not that big of a site with big resources after he joined
>>342956983
They're starting a new website and hes gonna be the head of it. Its currently vice gaming but it will have a new name I think
>>342957228
>but it will have a new name I think
Woof.zone
>>342957228
I doubt this site will gain any traction. If it's anything like the current Vice Gaming, it will be SJW shit with video games loosely tied in, like how Resident Evil is like Trump's America or why female video game characters are secretly transgendered. Nobody who cares about video games will read it.
>>342957363
rory is crazy dog guy though.
If you look at the articles he greenlit during his tenure at GB, almost all of them were politically or gender charged, you start to realize he is the perfect person to be running vice gaming. He will get them lots of circulation trough clickbait. He is smart enough to know how to exploit something to get eyes on it.
>>342957460
>Resident Evil's Jill Valentine is trans by Brianna Wu.
>>342957228
>>342957460
Polygon jr without the Mcelroys
>>342956896
I love how Vinny just stayed quiet to let him have one more soap box moment. Like he just waited until he was done, "Yeah. Totally agree, lets move on though to the next email..."
>>342956179
Why should I care
Does this mean GB will be tolerable again? I honestly started to loathe them while watching the E3 streams, and it was because of him and that faggot Navarro. They're so awful they made me warm up to Dan.
I got a question /v/. Is their a specific reason why everyone hates Alex to death?
>>342959773
Emo, edgy, SJW. Also no real sense of comedic timing.
Can anyone post the premium txt please?
>>342959773
General splerg behaviors. He was better off camera reviewing shitty games.
>>342959773
Alex is okay. He talks about rap every now and then.
>>342959617
you could give half of a care.
>>342959773
Alex is pretty much the average /v/ user irl minus the autism of /v/.
>>342956179
i doubt vice pays well
>>342959773
he ruins vinny content and only exists on gb due to extreme nepotism
>>342956735
>VICE
I dunno anon
Was Viceland not failing enough? Did they need to branch off into something else (gaming) that they know nothing about, only because it appeals to "millennials"?
The only Vice gaming article I've seen was one saying that Dead or Alive needed to appeal to women and gay men more. Even aside from the fact that women and gay men have different tastes in men, it was fucking retarded.
>>342961775
snatching up that 'gaming' audience is hot business
even youtube is diving headlong into it
>>342961952
It's obnoxious, modern Vice is basically "dude weed, and LGBTQXYZ!", you read one article, you've read them all.
>>342962319
vice has always been left leaning trash
it's just gotten more spun up as leftism has gained popularity
>that last beastcast
>that latest guest article
couldnt have left a worse taste on the way out if he tried.
cant wait to see how the new hire fits the diversity quota. hopefully they hire a quarter black, half chinese quad gendered non binary fluid to give all of us cis males the diverse experiences we oh so desperately need for diversitys sake.
He didn't necessarily have shitty pay, but it was probably mediocre.
Being your own chief editor definitely makes more money.
>>342959773
He has such low confidence he has to constantly talk down on himself and how much of a downer he is.
He's just not very fun to have as a quick look partner so Vinny is carrying the whole thing.
>>342959773
He's a comedy black hole.
>Vinny tells joke
>Alex says he wants to kill himself
haha good one, Alex
>>342959773
He's depressing, never has anything interesting to say aside from snarky quips once in awhile, really has no business being in front of a camera or microphone at all. If he weren't friends with Jeff I dont see how he remains an asset in his line of work.
1 down
2 to go
>>342957460
The SJW audience will care about it, and they're a fairly big audience nowadays, unfortunately.
>>342965083
Dan is an idiot but how is he like Patrick at all?
>>342965083
Dan doesn't belong in that group to be honest
>>342965083
Dan is benign enough.
Without him there are no Mario Party Partys orBrad playing Hitman
>>342965083
I don't see anything wrong with Dan. He's like the least SJW person on Giantbomb.
>>342959773
Somehow even more unfunny than Dan, annoying and depressing and on top of that a colossal SJW.
I've always considered him worse than Patrick.
>>342965259
>Without him there are no Mario Party Partys or Brad playing Hitman
Those are 2 good reasons to make him leave
Mario Party Party should have been a once a year thing
>>342963932
>MFW they hire a qt girl with gaming knowledge that is funny and not my gf
>>342956587
>video game journalists
>having any sort of ambition
LOL
>>342965468
Mary Kish isnt moving to New York
>>342965083
>Dan will never leave Giant Bomb
At least Alex is on the East, so he only taints Vinny.
Dan taints everyone else.
>Thread about e-celeb drama
>my mfw when
You're all cancer.
>>342965083
Dan at least is entertaining sometimes. He's fine.
Can't GB just hire Mary and get on with it?
>>342965264
I'm pretty sure Jeff or Vinny or Drew or even Brad weren't on a podcast lecturing their own dad on his white privilege. Dan did that.
>Get into Giant Bomb a couple months ago]
>start watching best of giant bomb videos from the beginning
>Hey whos this fat guy Ryan? Hes funny.
>Apparently he died of sleep apnea.
Bummer man.
>>342965687
thats what you get for listening to danswers in the first place.
im sure Danny O brainwashed him a little bit.
>>342965208
>>342965231
>>342965259
>>342965259
>>342965264
>>342965585
>>342965637
Dan is definitely the least worse of those three and I'd have five Dans before five Alexes or five Austins, but he should also fuck off. They should have him come in twice a year to play Mario Mario Party and not have him anywhere else. Every time Dan brings attention to himself, whatever content he's in takes a huge nose-dive.
>>342965687
I hope his dad called him a retard, or something to that affect.
>>342965383
I see you subscribe to the eternal drought of content philosophy. Jeff is trying his hardest to continue to not produce content so don't worry.
>>342965821
I don't listen to that shit podcast, some anon on a GB thread told me about it and linked me to it. I was already sick of Dan at that point but not even I could believe he'd lecture him on that shit.
He doesn't even have the "At least he's not an SJW" excuse anymore.
>>342965083
dan was a normie when he went to gb
sf changed him
>>342965923
If you have to make things up to shitpost, don't shitpost.
>>342965585
>Brad will never leave Giant Bomb
>Ryan Davis still dead
>>342965915
>What is Old Game Show
>What is Ranking of Fighters
>What is Game Tapes
>What is Demo Derby
Incidentally, all of these are two times better when Dan isn't there to shit them up. I honestly prefer solo Jeff content or Jeff + Anyone but Dan than Jeff + Dan, especially if it's just them two.
>>342965554
may has shit taste
>>342966062
I'm not making things up, you retard, it happened and we all know it did. Keep being delusional if it pleases you.
>>342965980
I'd honestly thought he'd be too dumb/not care enough to be influenced by SF, and would have been too busy eating Taco Bell and playing with his Amiibos to get brainwashed.
>>342966269
SF is no different from online echo chambers. You have enough people telling you something, and you're gonna have to at the very least slightly agree with some of their points. You're too outnumbered.
Dan definitely got way more cucked than I thought he would, though.
>>342966136
All things that come out on an irregular bi-monthly schedule.
How hard is it to do at least one ranking of fighters a month.
>>342966421
Have you ever considered the fact that those things come out irregularly because we have to make space up for Dan's dumb bullshit? Metal Gear Scanlon obviously took a lot of production time.
>>342966421
but...but muh meetings.
gotta get ready for e3, then pax, then move offices again, then goty......
>>342965915
I subscribe to the "Mario Party Party is complete shit because they're clearly tired of it already and maybe they should be focusing on stuff they actually enjoy doing instead of spending hours talking about how bored they are while letting enough time pass since the last Mario Party Party that they forget how bad it was" philosophy. The Mario Party Parties have just been getting worse.
>>342966269
dan is too dumb not to be influenced
I honestly believe that he is a legitimately an adult with the mind of a child
>>342966530
>Make space.
There's plenty of space on the site you apologist.
>>342966530
ranking of fighters started after scanlon ended
>>342956179
I think anyone would take the opportunity to stop working with alex navarro
dude has never once said anything funny and his self deprecating "humor" just constantly comes off as obnoxious
could you listen to that stupid smug voice every day? I sure as hell couldn't
>>342966721
I'm not an apologist if I'm straight up saying that they should fire Alex and Dan.
>>342966530
>""""""production time""""""
They sit around playing video games for a living, all their videos are filmed in one sitting, their is literally no reason why they don't release multiple videos everyday seeing as they have several people.
>>342966530
they have more than one video producer and the amount of production they do is laughable
MGS videos haven't been coming out for months
>>342966615
5 was the best one so far. How are they getting worse.
>>342966818
the latest one was absolutely awful. though that may have been due to the map
>>342966818
5 was terrible but i think that was because of the map choice
>>342966721
>>342966734
>>342966802
>>342966812
Even now, when we get content, it's content with fucking Dan. Oh good, a new Old Games Show! Oh, it has Dan in it being a faggot. Oh, some kind of Hitman playthrough? Guess what, Dan is in it to be an obnoxious fag (with Brad, no less, what a combo)
Maybe I should be blaming it on the others for being lazy, but it's irrelevant. Regardless of who's to blame, Dan should be fired and content should be focused on people who aren't complete obnoxious tools.
patrick was alright in the content I saw him in and austin was fine in what I saw him in.
But jeff and drew > all else
>>342962636
After Austin and Patrick, I'd be happy with anyone that isn't an activist.
>>342966812
MGS is over, they beat Chapter 2 over a month ago.
>>342965915
He should really do a rotating dev panel like the e3 interviews. Shit was hilarious.
>>342965083
Alex is going to have a job as long as Jeff works there.
>>342956850
>annoying motherfucker
>Giant Bomb
you need to narrow it down a bit there.
>>342967143
It might not be an activist, but it will most certainly not be a white man. That much I guarantee you. They'll get shat on by half the community and tons of outside people if they dare hire a white man at this point.
I don't know of many funny minority journalists that would be good e-celebs, but I'm sure they exist. I just hope GB make the right hire.
>Triggers Giant Bombers for not catering to their hugbox community.
>Triggers self-proclaimed intellectual fedoras for being a naive dumbass but still worked hard enough to get his dream job and is now cruising through life so hard they consume all of his content to find more ways to make fun of him.
>Triggers San Fran for tweeting about how much of a bunch of pussies they are.
Thank you Dan.
>>342966982
dan seems like the only one who's motivated
they'll never fire him
who else can they even use?
Drew is worthless outside of his wheelhouse of HALOS and boring ass sims
Brad seems like he's just cashing a paycheck
jason is really interested in fighting game but is pretty terrible on camera
the only good team is jeff and vinny but that's never going to happen again now that vinny has roots in NY
>>342967371
>Has a retarded fanbase that thinks he's funny, watch his livestreams of him eating tacobell and buy shirts with his face on them or straight rip offs of other shirts replaced with "Ryckert"
He's living the dream, that's for sure. I'd just rather him go live it somewhere else.
>>342967440
Sorry, but this is no excuse. The process is simple.
1) Release Dan because he's an unfunny faggot
2) Make more video content and stop being lazy
They are not mutually exclusive. Alternatively, get someone who's motivated and isn't named Dan.
>>342967371
I wonder if he'll still wear his shitty shirts, or if he converted to suits only now.
>>342967513
>doesn't know jack shit but people just laugh it off as OH THAT DAN
He could say "I thought the Nazi's were the good guys." and everyone would laugh it off.
>>342963932
They could just hack off Alex's balls and save on the extra wage. No-one would notice or care.
>>342959773
He tries to pay the straight man but fails horribly. He ruins any jokes that he's in listening distance of.
>>342967647
Not to mention he obviously plays up his stupidity for the sake of being in the center of attention
>Vinny sharing a fun story with the crew over his house
>Dan interrupts him asking what a mortgage is so that we can all pay attention to the man that actually deserves it
>>342967647
He has never tried to pass himself off as smarter than he is.
giant bomb has been unwatchable since ryan died
>>342967829
Actually, there have been a few times where he goes "Durr I'm just pretending to be retarded, I was actually really smart and considered genius level when I was a kid"
>>342967829
No, he just plays up how dumb he supposedly is which is more annoying
>>342967829
Being proud of being stupid and stubbornly acting like the jester for attention isn't any better than being a Brad-like "I know everything because I've read this buzzfeed article"
I would pay the membership if, instead of playing games on every Friday, they tied Rory to a chair and hit him with crowbars and hammers.
>>342967606
>1) Release Dan because he's an unfunny faggot
Cool opinion bro. Glad to know that I'm in the presence of the arbiter of comedy.
Seriously though, he is often unfunny but he has a pretty large following and to just write him off because you don't like him is very narrow minded.
>2) Make more video content and stop being lazy
with who?
>get someone who's motivated and isn't named Dan.
every successive hire they have made has been worse and worse
would you rather have leigh alexander than dan?
>>342967684
alex has a job as long as jeff is there to protect him
>>342968098
Rorie is not that bad. He doesn't bring much to the table but at least he's not obnoxious.
>>342968281
>Seriously though, he is often unfunny but he has a pretty large following and to just write him off because you don't like him is very narrow minded.
That's nice, I suppose that means I can't hate on Alex or Austin or Patrick either. Some people like him, so deal with it. Funny how you make this defense for Dan but not for the other guys.
>every successive hire they have made has been worse and worse
Actually, Austin was better than Patrick at least.
>>342965083
Dan absolutely belongs here. He'll say fuck yeah Quiet and bitch about Cidney, DoA, etc. in the same breath.
>>342968685
>He'll say fuck yeah Quiet
He bitched about Quiet too, actually. He was making fun of some guy for defending her outfit.
And don't forget that segment in UPF with the game about shooting girls clothes off. Jeff, Brad, Jason and Drew were just having a good time messing around, but not Dan. Dan had to make sure we knew this was very problematic and he wasn't ok with it at least once every 15 seconds.
>>342968685
The entire site has es jay dub tendencies.
wasn't this guy a complete drag at literally every event they brought him along to? I wouldn't doubt that Jeff or someone would get on his nerves for actually wanting to talk about the vidya.
>>342956179
It's bad that Austin has left.
Austin was bad. He was incredibly butthurt about South Park and ruined that whole E3 coverage. He was basically awful in everything he was in.
BUT: the fact that he has left means that GB has to hire someone to replace him. Which means another opportunity for the thing that will actually kill GB forever to happen: hiring a woman.
>>342968518
you can hate on whoever you want but to say they should be fired because you don't like them is ridiculous
>Actually, Austin was better than Patrick at least.
in what way?
At least partick spearheaded his own content. Austin wrote a few articles on muh diversity and then outsourced his job to hacks outside the site.
>>342968934
Her outfit IS retarded.
>>342969334
Sometimes dead is better.
>>342969510
I obviously know that Giant Bomb isn't gonna fire him based on what one anonymous dipshit said on /v/ - Video Games. That doesn't stop me and others from disliking Dan and mentioning the (totally objective :^)) fact that West content would be much better without his stupid ass.
>>342969334
a woman would be fine as long as it isn't leigh alexander
I'm willing to hope that there are just as many mary kish's out there as there are brianna wu's
>>342969796
>brianna wu
>woman
>>342969334
>Implying there's anything inherently wrong with a woman
If the woman is funny and/or interesting, then that's an improvement. Bonus points if she has good taste in vidya (a non-existent quality in Giant Bomb's staff) and is qt
>>342969334
Someone like Mary Kish wouldn't be bad though, right?
>>342969875
>her
>>342969960
I doubt that mary would be any good in an ongoing capacity otherwise GS would be using her more
>>342969795
The west content would be non existent without his stupid ass. He may be a dumbass but the site desperately needed an enthusiastic person actually willing to put in some effort and do things.
>>342969796
Leigh Alexander is absolutely not happening. I have no idea why people keep theorizing her. The crew hates the fuck out of her and she hates them back.
>getting this mad over a couple of fun dudes sitting around playing vidya james
i will never understand, how do you cynical fuckers enjoy anything
>>342970226
Plus they would have to go through all of the immigration shit.
>>342970226
Didn't she quit writing about video games?
>>342970303
Because half of them aren't fun.
>>342970303
>fun dudes
who?
>>342957143
They are barely a productive gaming site. News articles aren't unique.
>>342970226
leigh alexander at this point is more of an idea than a person
>>342970205
You're arguing in circles now. Dan is an annoying faggot and he makes every content he's in aside from Mario Party Party worse purely with his presence and his inability to shut the fuck up and say anything funny or interesting. GB would improve by having him get out and then it would improve further by making more content. Or, alternatively, once again, by substituting Dan with another hire that is also motivated to make videos, but isn't retarded and unfunny.
it's not going to happen, but I wish they'd hire one of the McElroys
>>342970303
>5 fun guys
>>342970397
jeff, brad, drew,danand jason mainly
>People ITT
>If you don't like Quiet's fucking stupid character and her fucking stupid lazy character design and the INCREDIBLY stupid excuse that made me ashamed of neither my words or my deeds- you're an SJW
literally it would've been lazy and dumb, but fine if he just wanted a girl in bikini- but to act like there was some big mystery and we'd all look like idiots, "RARA BETCHU DIDNT KNOWU SHE PHOTOSYNTHESIZED"- like, dude, you WROTE it. If you wanted and lazy, boring, sleazy character design, just say so. Don't beat around the bush.
>>342970841
>If you wanted and lazy, boring, sleazy character design, just say so.
he did say so

I know I know
>linking polygon
>>342971173
Well to anybody that doesn't read awful gaming news sites like polygon, we never heard that excuse. And frankly, the dumbass backstory to her dumbass characterless character only served to make him seem meek and apologetic of his desires.
>>342970841
If it was the only stupid thing possibly related to being an SJW that Dan said, you'd have a point. He literally had a talk with his father on podcast over white privilege
>>342971636
And what exactly was their conclusion on the subject?
oh boy I can't wait to see what new minority they hire at the cuck house of Giant Bomb
Do they all have a weird twist of the not-gays. Like they have to let everyone know that they aren't gay but have no problem with being gay but also that they aren't okay with sexual women real or video games.
>>342956559
Is that the retard that was visible offended with the mexican cartel and the coon during E3?
The only person worth watching on Giantbomb is Jeff, and that's just to hear his insights and vast knowledge of games. You can learn something about the history of gaming every time you view him. Everyone else?
Brad: Uses "like" as a filler word so often it inspires the rest of the crew to adopt the habit every bombcast. Only knows how to fuck up the pacing of liveshows by bringing another shit Doom experience and talking about how epic Quake was 20 years ago. Up-talk off the charts? It's like Doom is the best game ever made? It's like I can't like speak a sentence without like using every ounce of my breath so like my voice carries off into a falsetto like every fucking time? Almost assuredly plays games incorrectly to trigger people; No way anyone can be that blind.
Dan: At least brings content to the site and tries to mix it up. Visibly wants to be there.
Drew: The straight man. Another live show ender. Only knows how to suck at Sim games on camera. But essential in that he's the head of production. Not his job to be good on camera.
Jason: Huge cuck. Again, not his job to be good on camera. Good God though, whenever he is on camera I want to tell him to do two fucking pushups for once. Talks a big game, sucks at all games (especially fighting games). Married a woman who banged all his friends; is clearly a sexual predator. Maybe if he tried lifting "his" son he'd fill out those shirt sleeves.
Austin: Huge SJW. Is mixed race which means he was ostracized from both races and will forever be butthurt. Glad to see him go.
Alex: Huge SJW. Not as preachy as Austin. Only there because of nepotism. No point in complaining about him since he will be the last to go.
Vinny: He's alright. Not the second coming of Christ like he's painting by the community. Shamefully hides his conservative values from his SJW coworkers.
Rorie: Amazing. Paired with Jeff he really comes alive. A well of politically incorrect rhetoric who makes the SJW heavy members cringe.
>>342956179
Perhaps GB will be good again after this fat nigger tumblrdyke leaves.
>>342972487
He's the guy who was visibily and audibly upset that the first watchdogs had you playing as a white guy, and then wrote about how it was all about slavery all along.
He's also the guy who said D&D has "Too much white-ness", as in not enough token blacks and girls play it in his presence.
>>342970303
Threads about ecelebs always make them out to be worse than they are.
>>342972868
>Rorie
>anything but an annoying twonk with a list, irritating voice who is so disengaged with any liveshow he's on that he can't help but ask questions that were LITERALLY just answered less than twelve seconds ago, then use "I was looking at chat" as an excuse even though every other person can multitask the chat responsibility just fine
Ya dun fucked up
>>342971812
That SF has apparently changed Dan because he didn't want to gamble when visited his dad for Christmas.
That's it.
>>342972961
HOW THE FUCK DOES A GAME WHERE YOU MAKE UP THE STORY NOT HAVE ENOUGH CHARACTERS YOU LIKE????
>>342973195
The way I view Rorie is as a bull in a china shop. The wild card. Every time he shows up it's a beautiful mess. You can see the flicker of intelligence behind his mask of autism. Maybe it's because I feel he's the one least pushing an agenda. He just sort of exists in quiet misery. But that's just how I see it.
> t.rorie
>>342973329
He was complaining about all the people he saw playing D&D being white and not anything else. He needs his token (race) players to make him feel more welcome.
>>342973195
Yes and? It's all the times he says something inappropriate that's funny about him.
>>342973419
I take it back, you convinced me. I just laughed out loud in this dead silent waiting room. You write very funnily.
>>342973434
>Everytime a black person or black character was seen on screen at E3 and Austin visibly got more excited.
>>342973434

I think I'll take a dark shower today.

Here's one example at least.
An excerpt:
"And, sometimes, you run and you see her, and others, around the body of a young black man. And sometimes it is the early summer of 2014, and the deaths of Jordan Davis and Trayvon Martin will not leave your mind—my mind—and no, this is not a dead black man, it is the body of young black boy, in a hoodie and jeans, and I can’t check his name because he is already dead, and I see the man, the white man, fleeing.
And there aren’t any sirens at all, because the power fantasy of Watch Dogs is simple: in a world with oppressive, technocratic social structures, you get to be Aiden Pearce, the human force of justice. The fantasy isn’t fixing the system, it’s giving a gun to another white man."

The dark shower podcast featuring Rorie maybe a couple of months ago.
>>342970465
I like Dan in small doses. He plays too hard into his I'M SO WACKY AND CONTRARIAN XD gimmick a little hard sometimes.
>>342973981
Not sure what that has to do with D&D, but yeah I guess that's pretty faggy?
>>342973841
>>342973935
You may not remember because when he said it it came out as:
"Like Rorie I can't believe you like rubbed a bar of soap on your like skin. That's like FUCKING crazy. OH MY GOD. OH NOOOOOO."
>>342973981
did he see that webm that got made here and have a fit or something
>>342974237
The D+D thing was in reference to white privilege; as in it's a "white people" thing to play D+D. The Watchdogs comparison being that you are participating in white power fantasies. No direct correlation. Just showing his political leanings and how he tied it into his gaming editorials/presence.

How do I stop having Alex's personality?
>>342971620
kojima is just a bad writer.
>>342974510
Which is something you definitely want to put out there when going into journalism
>>342959773
>walks on camera
>"hey whose phone is this?"
>"a fan sent it in so we could take ca-"
>spikes the phone on the ground as if he's thurman thomas
>"These calls SUCKED :^("
>literally everyone is like "wtf"
He's the worst type of faggot
>>342973669
I laughed out loud when he commented on a woman and a black man starting the conference. He was as giddy as a kid for Christmas.
>>342966081
is he going to be okay with all those explosions?
>>342973195
Agreed. Rorie is the fucking worst, even Patrick was better.
>>342974237
D&D was him bitching on one of the podcasts about a year ago, going onto a rant about it and how him and some faggot were starting up a thing to get blacks and women together to play D&D for like a single session to prove IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT WHITE PEOPLE

Taking bets for if Jeff will let the company waste more money on Austin's friend article program after he leaves.
>>342974706
True, but must identity politics be called to action at every opportunity? Can he not be a professional and talk about games without inserting his racial ideology and imprinting it on the feeble minded young viewership?
>>342974759
When was this?
>it's another videogame opinion site employing only fucking white males
>>342974759
I need to see this
>>342975207
Considering Austin was in charge of all of that I dont think anyone is going to take up the extra work looking for more writers.
>>342972868
>Rorie: Amazing. Paired with Jeff he really comes alive. A well of politically incorrect rhetoric who makes the SJW heavy members cringe.
rorie apologized for saying 'gyped'
he's as big a sjw as austin or kekplek
>>342975390
>Be white
>Be greatest race on earth
can't be helped famalam
>>342975061
Linking this does nothing to prove Rorie as anything less than an asset. That's some ace comedic timing, intentional or no.

Giantbomb stopped being worth watching when Dave left
>>342975390
Because the only diversity you don't care about is intellectual diversity.
>>342956179
Now if we can just get rid of Alex maybe we can have a golden age.
>>342975390
>It's another job that apparently should employ for diversity instead of who's most skilled and talented.
>>342975732
And Dan. And the three substitutes need to be good.Never gonna happen. We gotta hope for a Silver Age instead.
>>342967371
Why the hell was he dressed like this during UPF? Why is he bald and why does he have an eye patch?
>>342956179
I saw this motherfucker saying stupid shit on Twitter and he called me "homie" after I disagreed with him. If Twitter didn't have a character limit I would actually respond to this fucking token ass nigga.
>>342959773
He is trash
Example quick look
>Vinny: Welcome to-a the Caravella pizzeria! Today we gonna make-a the pizza-pie! We got the mozza-
>Alex: I have AIDS
>Vinny:...
>Vinny: Today we're playing some Pie Craft on the PC
>>342975924
Got a stye in his eye so he has to wear an eyepatch until it's healed.
I assume he shaved his head because it's not exactly often you get the chance to wear an eyepatch for legitimate reasons in your life and he wanted to look like a Bond villain.
Why don't they hire Mary Kish?
They're going to hire a tranny next.

good gb is shit
griffin would be the best thing to happen to giant bomb
too bad he and justin will never leave polygon
Posting superior game news group
>>342975207
They can't be paying much for the articles and chances are austin will take the writers with him
they'd all rather write for vice anyway
>>342975732
>rid of Alex
never ever
you need to get used to this
>>342956971
He's better than Klepek in terms of vidya taste and weeb undercurrent. But the SJW stuff was about the same. I didn't want to punch his face in as much as patrick, though.
>>342976618
This. And yes, because Justin got him the job, it's unlikely he'd ever leave it.
GB ruined Dan. He was great with GameInformer.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cogBqfKUyqw
>>342976618
Justin and Griffin on the bombcast regularly would be incredible. But it would have to be the both of them. I don't think it could be only Griffin or only Justin. They have to be sold in a pair.
>>342977492
Drew Carmack is cute.
>>342976154
Because she's already in Gamespot and Giant Bomb and Gamespot are owned by the smae company.
>>342977539
Griffin could handle himself if they didn't bully him down any. Justin's anxiety is so palpable that I could see him falling apart. Whenever he's done segments outside of his own shows like when he was on JJG, he ends up off kilter.
>>342976759
I respectfully disagree. I find those guys annoying and not very interesting. GB are better with Jeff + Vinny alone.
I can't understand why they keep Rorie there:
>moderates chat
>answers emails and handles support
>probably some other stuff that anyone with half a brain can do
>only cares about wow and dogs
>terrible when front of camera
>just there to fill the space on the sofa
He's like Brad but doesn't do anything gaming related at all.
>>342978185
He goes way back with Jeff. Same reason why Alex is still there.
>>342978185
He's the office drunk.
the only good gaming podcast I still enjoy a lot are the zaibatzu, they are stupid and hypocritical but at least they have energy, it seems like the people one every other gaming podcast are on the verge of suicide.
>>342976154
That tweet would be more interesting if it were blank.
>>342976154
Why do people pretend she's funny? She's awful.
>>342978705
because I want to impregnate her
>>342978705
I was wondering that aswell. I saw her for the first time on the e3 cast this year and she would have this weird tone to her voice as she tried to deliver a joke and it was just bizarre because no one even responded. It was like a passing comment and they would just continue with whatever they were talking about
>>342978705
Pretending pretty women are funny is a national pastime anon, everyone does it, we also pretend their interesting too.
>>342979438
sorry, they're, not their, I think.
>>342969334
> He was incredibly butthurt about South Park and ruined that whole E3 coverage.
I don't fucking get why this triggers everyone.
The guy makes a few winces to the camera and everyone's experience has somehow been ruined?
That's gotta be the pettiest of the petty.
>>342956587
but it will flop, like all gaming sites started by big main stream media sites
>>342959492
That's what you do. Let them run their stupid mouths to make them feel like they accomplished something, then move right on.
>>342978185
You yourself just said why Rorie is there. He moderates chat and answers emails and handles support. That is literally his job.
>>342956179
>who?
>>342956559
who?
>>342956587
who?
how is this game related ? do we need to learn new personas because games run on them ?
>>342978185
his email support is pretty good, can't complain
>>342979438
>Every woman is inherently unfunny and uninteresting
I'm confused as to how West manages to produce so little content when they have a team of 5 including 2 professional video producers and a bunch of high-grade production equipment. There are fucking youtubers on their home PCs that can put out a video a day.
