Obvious Nepenthe alt, Echoes alt.

Soon Era will be just a dozen insane posters and their alts posting.

[ClothedMac]

Don't worry folks the thread's open again with a huge post from Hecht explaining how Nep's teeth helped him understand the plight of poc. Also she did nothing wrong because everybody has alts and laughs at the reetards. Factually correct but still. Anyway, the thin blue line has held.

Truly nauseating how corrupt, insular, and superior they act, whilst painting themselves as lowly, near powerless servants to the board.

I love that.  Nepenthe was the first to deploy that tactic and now it's become SOP.  Every-time criticism comes up you know it's going to get juicy when they say, "sure, blame me,  everyone else does."

Can someone tell me what Kat Bailey has ever reported on that earned her some reputation of distinction?

There's this Black Myth Wukong thread, apparently it's coming out on Xbox.

It seems like the "secret exclusivity deal" truthers are hinging their continuing belief on the reputation of Kat Bailey, in particular.

Do you think journalists just blindly print whatever anyone tells them without vetting the information first? Especially reputable ones like Kat Bailey?

...but what did she do to deserve such regard? I'm genuinely curious, it's like she fell out of the sky and everyone was like "now HERE'S a real journalist!" as far as I can tell.

She was a part of 1up.com back when it was a thing and after that ship was sunk she maintained a "presence" within that Jeremy Parish/Retronauts sphere, alongside stints at places like GamePro and (I think) Game Informer US Gamer.

In short: she's been riding that trajectory left by the mid-to-late 2000's gaming website-personalities boom.  I actually used to generally enjoy Kat on podcasts, including her own, until like so many others from that retarded SF games enthusiast press ivory tower, she started letting too much of her SF dipshit-liberal shine through her games talk.

She apparently worked for IGN for a while but all of her articles look like the same regurgitation of press releases you see from any other games journalist. I think it might just be that she's an "experienced journalist" ergo whatever is reported must be true.

She was EIC of US Gamer after Parish left) (who explicitly said he stepped down to open up a spot for a woman. The one time in history that actually happened).

Oh that's right, it was US Gamer.  And Parish left them to I think do Retronauts fulltime and later joined the totally scrupulous and not-at-all suspect company of Limited Run Games in some capacity ( ).

Parish got a role at Limited Run Games and then stepped down, using that as the excuse.  He didn't just leave and then had to look for a job.

I remembered the timeline the same way as Tucker's Law. He stepped down to do the NES/SNES Works thing full time with his Patreon and then later got a job with LRG.

I could be wrong but I don't think he went to LRG right away.

Is Retronauts II still going? If only Bob Mackey had been the dude to leave for an industry job instead of Ray Barnholt. Mackey sucks.

[Propagandhim]

Yeah, I'm probably wrong then.  I know he was involved with LRG in 2020, but for some reason I thought he stepped down and immediately went to LRG.  Was he working on a project with them at the time he was with USGamer, but not in an official employment capacity?  Maybe that's why i'm confused.  Anyway, you two are probably right.


Edit: Ah yeah, he released Limited Run: The Complete Run Vol. 1 2015/2016 in 2021.  But that was after he left USGamer.  Anyway, I'm wrong.  But, yes, Bob Mackey is insane.

Hello all. New member here even though I was a member years ago. Hope everyone is well. Rejoined because I was a member on another site and let's just say I don't agree with the way the site is ran. Quick question, in the game forums is there any bans on particular games you can discuss? Also, loving my switch 2.

For those of y'all who IGNORANT I have read a lot of theory about disability justice (aka Twitter, especially Taylor's) and I can helpfully explain what eugenics is to y'all bald lib smalldicked losers who refuse to do the work.

Yes. You're welcome. Do better.

[benji]

Also, doctors telling you that you need to lose weight or it will negatively impact your health further is especially eugenics.

Not asses?!?

[BananaBlast]

I randomly clicked on the tab of Summer's Game Fest, and got a faceful of stripper ass and tiddies - From Atomic Heart II.

Resetera's sure gonna love that one 

Oh, and as I write this, the other new game they're showcasing (The Cube) has hot skimpy women in it.

Dear god, Atomic Heart 2 / The Cube had my skin crawl. Geez.

Holy shit that Atomic Heart II trailer was painful to get through. I had to place my eyes back into my skull because they rolled right out.

That was fast!
