Why is casual racism/sexism more accepted in video games than other forms of media (these days)?

There isn't really "gaming school" per se, although some schools have programs with specialties. Mostly you'll find people in graphic design or computer science.

Well yeah i meant sort of like programs. Like I went to the art school in a public college but I didn't go to Art School.

omg

kinda sad that is not a real site

the man quoted here

https://twitter.com/srhbutts/status/583698049387503617

is david draiman, singer of disturbed

which will always be funny to me

oooo ah ah ah ah

Was he pro GG then got a dose of their anti semitism?

Apparently

from what I've seen recently, apparently a bunch of male tweens stalk the twitter hashtag and harass and threaten any woman who dares to use it

that's the movement i thought

I think they did have more people, but that's the core, for sure

they're winning!

how long until that dude figures out he installed adblock in the last few months

I could be wrong but in my experience game developers are predominantly male, but not predominantly white. at least not like 90% white or something so stark.

well i mean for one there's the entire japanese & korean & chinese industries

anybody want to factcheck anything on that imgur clip?

maybe after I exhaust all the worthwhile things I could do with my life

cool, will check back

i guess that gg is losing and the sjws are censoring vital free speech successfully after all?

I got big time into Castlevania last year and was searching the music for the original NES game, which was done by a Japanese woman named Kinuyo Yamashita. The game has joke credits ("Screenplay by Vram Stoker") and she was credited as "James Banana". The composer for every 2d Castlevania from "Symphony of the Night" was another Japanese woman, Michiru Yamane. Konami had lots of female composers, and a composer was not simply someone who wrote music that ended up being imported into the game. They had to know how to code, how to create sound effects and music using the same base-level data manipulation that was used to make the rest of the games.

i am curious how so many women composers ended up in the Japanese video games industry at the time, they all started in the mid-late 80s. or maybe it was just Capcom and Konami putting out a call

And then she took her helmet off, and it was a woman!
