Re: Anita Sarkeesian on EA staff helping to develope Mirror's Edge 2

It's bullshit okay?

I mean first of all, who fucking cares? How does Anita's involvement have any bearing on the game's quality? She's not a developer.

But also, where is the evidence for any of this? I've been Googling and all i can find are a bunch of shit about a campaign to get her removed from the game and a hysterical rant on Destructoid from 2 years ago. No press statements or anything to suggest EA is actually employing Anita.

And even if they were, so? Do we even know what role she'd actually be doing? She could be in PR, or advertising, or something like that, something public-facing, rather than anything to do with the game itself.

I'm sick and tired of gamer entitlement, and I say this as someone who plays games pretty much constantly. The game's not even out and you're making a snap judgment based on one harmless feminist icon ALLEGEDLY being involved with your pwecious pwecious game. A game that I might add is already relatively female-friendly with a largely female main cast.

Gamers are such children.

I think "EA employing Sarkeesian" means they paid her to give a talk to DICE once. In 2012.

If she were a fucking EA employee you think this wouldn't be everywhere, OP?

A game that I might add is already relatively female-friendly with a largely female main cast.

I'm sure they'll find a reason to criticize this.

Of course they will.

This whole thing is so fucking stupid.
