Pretty sure she does actually work as a consultant for some studios. I think she did it for The Last of Us? Or maybe they were following her videos. I can't remember.

she does, but does this not come off as aggressive to you?


I never said it wasn't. CDProjektRED aren't going to be bothered. Overall Triss and Yennefer are seen as great women characters in The Witcher 3.

OK. How is that relevant? at all? Should we hate people whose names are attached to unsuccessful games?

Seriously the internet hates her for the dumbest reasons. Why? Because they told each other to hate her, because they're upset somebody was calling out their hobby.

Maybe because she is a control freak. Who wants stories told her way. Who basically just threatened CDProjektRed with harassment in her tweet.

That's one way to interpret it.

She's not threatening them, it's not like she's gonna summon an army of people to harass them. She's warning them that they're encroaching on sensitive areas and they might cause themselves a firestorm.......which is what they've done in the past. Honestly maybe they should hire her as a consultant. It's not like they have to listen to her but at least it would help them be more aware of how things could be interpreted. Since they seem a bit out of touch on that

If you interpret that as a threat of harassment or a reason to hate her, then you're just being very dramatic.

That is the thing. She doesn't have to summon anyone. She can do it with one tweet. She did it to Laura Kate Dale for daring to interview TotalBiscuit about cyber-bullying. The way she views TB says it all to me. I don't know how you can view him as someone that was problematic enough to harass the interviewer over it. She knows what power she has.

But these "journalists" will dominate the conversation and spend more time talking about the "offensive" content than the actual game. Investors will not like that.

Hey @CDPROJEKTRED, I'm always available for consulting cause it sure sounds like you might need it before the whole of the internet drags you for what sounds like some potentially sexist representations... which we all know you've struggled with in the past.

maybe i have been watching the sopranos too much lately but this literally sounds like mafia extortion lol. thats a nice game youse gots there, would be a shame if it were to get dragged...

What strikes me is the sheer audacity of condescension in that tweet if it's genuine.

"Like, hey motherfucker. I know you're too much of an ignoramus to stay out of trouble. What, did you trip over your own umbilical cord and hit your head when you fell out of your mom's vagina? Well look, just because you're a living parody of human intellect doesn't mean you can't be helped. Pay me some money and I'll set you straight."

Like I keep saying, THEY. ARE. TRAPPED. If they don't appeal to the "woke" crowd, the woke crowd is just gonna fill up their articles and tweets about how "problematic" the game is aka bad press. But if they appeal to the woke crowd, actual gamers won't be interested and the woke crowd won't buy it because they don't play games anyway. It's a lose-lose situation.

Not really, the only thing that would hurt them is actively engaging with the woke crowd. Sarkeesian and her followers are toothless, all they can do is make "hot takes" on Twitter, they have absolutely no influence over anything.

And why would that matter? Would those who want to play the game be stopped from doing it because of that? That kind of press will probably be free marketing like it happened with MK during the 90's.
