"I will smite....smite all!"

"Multiracial gamers........worse than nazis! Yup this be click-bait....I'm sorry...click-hate!"

Hopefully Friday I’ll be playing Diablo 3 and forgetting #gamer-gate for awhile! Last time I checked someone was passing around a picture of Nazi youth on one side and gamers on the other side. The irony was the gamer side was multiracial! Apparently certain people are losing brain cells over this shit.



Despite all the drama I managed to get more art done. I promised myself to create a series of story illustrations for my game so even if people never got around to playing it they could still appreciate the art. This is the last one in the 1st series so I feel as if I can take a breather of sorts.

This roughly explains Deidre’s death and her reanimation to be used by “the family” (bad-guys) as a secret weapon and a pawn. I kept the coloring simpler in this piece but I think it turned out aight!

I still kinda suck at buildings but I'm glad you dig the architecture. I admit some of it is inspired from Castlevania (Such as the steep walkway going up at an angle leading to the highest tower). I think the moon turned out pretty swell too,Matt!

I just got back from a 'rally' in Seattle.  You can read a blog I'll post about it later on tonight, so be on the lookout for it.

It's hard for me to fit in with other gamers because of my strange tastes in games.  But I didi talk with a lady at Capcom's booth about Phoenix Wright games for a good 15 to 30 minutes. :)

Best thing to do is probably ignore it. I've had to mute a lot of random ass-hats on twitter for sentiments like the one above. I think it's just another attempt at click-bait and goading us into negative comments. Best thing to do is block em or if you do engage be polite and level headed to the point "they" look like the poop-piles. (Which at this point is not hard,James.)

Oh god, that comparasion image. I found it on Tumblr and I could only "what the fuck" and "bullshit" when I saw it. The good thing is that it was then followed by users also calling the bullshit on it.

This situation is getting out of hand.

Also, boobs....

It's honestly hard to believe how condescending these people are being. It's gotten to the point gamers are like "But guys,we're not all white cis males and we have a legitimate reason to be upset!" only to have it answered with "You're worse than nazis" with the dumbest comparison picture to ever be made. (Because on the right you can tell the guys gathered there come from many ethnic backgrounds) This stupidity defies the laws of nature,bro. Undecided

I've seen the comments from people comparing gamers to the terrorist group ISIS, but the Hitler Youth is a new one to me.

Luckily according to Alejandro it got a lot of angry replies even on tumblr and was shouted down pretty quickly. That makes me feel better about it.

I think these people do not realize "we" hold the keys. As the consumer base we determine what games sell and what games tank. And if we stop giving certain game-sites traffic they will tank. Maybe then more down to earth honest grass-roots sites like pixlbit will finally get the recognition they deserve!

Which makes all those 'gamers are dead/gaming culture is dead' articles all the more bizzare to me. Sure you get some short-term spikes as far as clicks go, but I doubt those same people will continue looking at your site after being repeatedly insulted.

Exactly. Intially it will draw people in just to say "F$ck you jerks!" but after that we're talking about online ghost towns.
