Disclaimer: I haven't followed gamergate at all, so I don't really know what other issues people might have with her (or whether or not they're legitimate).

She irritated me years ago by covering a lot of games and claiming in the reviews that she had played them, but then getting a ton of major details wrong or seriously misrepresenting major characters or plot points to make games seem more outrageous or unfeminist than they actually were. This wasn't minor mistakes, either, or a difference of opinions. This was more on the level of NC's Sailor Moon review, where it's clear she didn't do more than watch the trailer and MAYBE read a plot synopsis and then start talking out of her ass.

Plus iirc it was around that point in time she was also caught using lots of LPer footage w/out their permission and w/out crediting them, which is really douchebaggy as a lot of those people rely on their LPs for income. (Plus it's pretty deceptive, as you'd assume a reviewer using uncredited game footage was just showing their own playthrough experience.)

I haven't looked up her stuff in a few years b/c I was so thoroughly unimpressed with her shitty "reviews", but I recall a whole lot of tearing down well-written and empowering women characters (b/c she knew fuckall about them and assumed they were 'bad').
