Not only does this woman apparently speak like a stereotypical valley girl but she also offered approximately zero insight into the workings of the company. She also knows nothing about the engine as she was working in the marketing department. She did find the time to toss in a “boy’s club” comment in there without elaborating on that point though. Very brave.
Maybe she felt excluded because like you know she like spoke like this, you know?
Now this is actually an informative and interesting article. Thank you!
For anyone who can’t view it due to the paywall, right-click the link and choose the “Open link in InPrivate window” option. That bypasses the paywall. It’s definitely worth the read.
It’s my fault. I’m a blond haired, blue eyed, Caucasian male in a tradititonal marriage with a traditional woman, and we both worship the traditional God of my European ancestors.
I read the article.
She’s talking about the people working on the engine specifically not the game as a whole.
she like, had nothing, like interesting to like, say.
She used to work on it, doesn’t work there anymore. Amazon bad.
That’s easy to answer: You can have female characters with beards, male character with girls haircuts and choose your own pronouns. All the talking points from fanbois, feminists, and “woke” people.
What’s funny, is I think it’s mostly because the game couldn’t be bothered developing a better character creation. So you could call it a happy accident. What’s more interesting is that in game I’ve barley seen any characters that use these features.
It’s the typical corporate pandering to the “woke” crowd for sure. Amazon just cares about nabbing your $40 at the end of the day, they certainly are run like any other big corp.
I can get the same one sided whining from insiders on any and every topic/brand/product/business already on YouTube. No need for it this time for me. Meh.
This is what you call “optics”. It certainly “looks” good. The Corporate Machine does not believe in anything. Except taking your money.
Now unto itself, this does not make the “awakened” entirely wrong. But it makes them wrong in believing everything within the Corpo world is fine. That superficial changes like being able to select your pronouns in game mean or putting out pride merch annually mean that the company values you, your thoughts, or it’s employees, and is headed in a great direction.
That’s not how you live Punk. That’s not how you fight the power.
