She's really not some horrible evil monster, and obviously the death threats were completely out of line*. She's just not a very interesting or engaging critic, and at least in the past she would get basic facts about games wrong, fueling the theory that she doesn't actually play the games she criticizes. I think she's been caught stealing footage from let's plays so that further fuels the fire.

The good points she does make, again, are simply not all that interesting or even new things.

She has made a couple of tweets over the years that were very questionable, to say the least. Those are probably the worst things she's done from a moral standpoint, unless you believe that she's an actual scam artist.

Also, her videos definitely don't reflect the 140k budget she got from the kickstarter. Hell they don't even reflect the initial 5k or so she was originally asking for.

* - as a separate disucssion, I think we need to differentiate actual death threats from shit like "lol kill yourself", which is not very nice to say but shouldn't be taken seriously as a threat on someone's life. The two often get lumped together. I don't deny that she received quite a bit of the legit kind, though, and that's terrible.
