Jim Sterling / James "Stephanie" Sterling / James Stanton/Sexton & in memoriam TotalBiscuit (John Bain) - One Gaming Lolcow Thread

Haven't watched the video yet, but I can guarantee you two things:
1. Use of the words billionaire and capitalist, spat out like a swear
2. The same tired old shit we've heard Jim say for years about Actiblizz and Kotick

At least this time there's a walkout to cover? I wonder if Jim will talk to anyone involved and get some insider info?

He doesn't even need to start thumping the Captriple-A-pitalism horse when he can riff for hours on the "associating with rapists makes you even worse than the rapists" beat that the SJWs love.

The genderblob's going out to terrorize innocents with his grotesque visage:

Subjecting the public to your fetish play is sexual harassment. Subjecting the public to your fetish play is sexual harassment.

Just finished watching, he did that too. As for my idea about speaking to someone from the walkout, I was far too optimistic. Why do any journalism when you can just repeat your own tweets for 15 minutes?

My man Jimbo got really angry in this one, about as angry and spiteful as I've ever seen him. It was actually kind of unpleasant to listen to.
 
See, the title and thumbnail are a mistake already.

Everybody knows Blizzard.

Only people who are already invested in this whole fuckup know Bobby Kotick.

Making it about Kotick doesn't do Jim any favors. He's just feeding his ego.
You're operating on the assumption Jim gives two squirts of piss about growing his audience.

The Jimquisition isn't for the audience any more, it's for Jim.

His voice was doing this weird angry Richard Ayaode quiver thing. I will give him credit for at least acknowledging near the end that his outrage isn't going to do anything compared to hurting stock prices.

Also, lol at Jim fucking with billionaires who could have him vanished if they cared.
 
There is nothing new in that video that we haven't heard already. I would not be surprised if Jim creates a voodoo doll of Bobby Kotick.

Yeah, at least he is somewhat self aware. I think part of Jim's resentment towards the gaming community is that gamers are not rising up against the AAA game companies. He sees himself as doing his part but the gaming community let's him down. In his eyes gamers are probaby every bit at fault for the state of the industry as the CEOs.

What would be more horrifying, he has a Bobby Kotick voodoo doll that he cums on, or he has a Bobby Kotick voodoo doll that sprays him with fake cum? Either way, I can see him fetishizing this level of hate.

Reminds me how the media Desperately misses Donald Trump because they can't write award winning articles on him whenever he farts anymore, a literal hate boner if you will
 
It annoys me that Jim keeps acting like he's a persecuted minority soley because he decided to identify as non binary, like if Bobby Kotick declared he was a fellow enby would Jim be forced to call them zhem a stunning and brave individual?
Strong overlap with the Darksydephil thread but whales are indeed the majority of the income for microtransactions, and it may not show too much for games where there's, like, a couple ways to spend money and that's it, but mobile games (I'm sure there are a few PC games that qualify, like maybe that Mechwarrior thing ?) with fully fledged stores have stuff that truly only caters to whales.

It's even kinda tiered, where the cheap stuff is actually pretty good bang-for-your-buck-wise, but the higher you go the worse it gets, like they know nobody who's not über-rich or addicted will pay for such things anyway, so might as well jack up the prices. And then there's also the cheap stuff no-one would "reasonably" do because the gain is insignificant but that the whales do do. Taking a game I play as example, being able to change your character's equipment from a PvP to PvE one or vice-versa; The average person simply has PvP toons and PvE toons, whales have (some) characters act as both and keep paying to switch them around very often. It's not worth it in any capacity but if you're not gonna look at your spending, well, yeah, might as well do it.
There's a trade off, this might be controversial but I think microtransactions are great if it means regular new free content for everyone.

As an example the game Dead By Daylight does a good job, there's a regular battle pass that contains a mixture of free items and paywalled items but if you complete it you get all the premium in game currency you paid for it back plus the cosmetics are made available 6 months later for shards you get from levelling up (A grind and a free to play player would probally rather unlock killers/survivors with them (Additional game content)) or real money so there's no real 'fear of missing out' plus developers use it to make lore updates and little movies about the characters which you unlock by doing in game activities during the battle pass.

There's trinkets too (Like keyrings you can put on your character or hang on the sacrafice hook if you're the killer) but those are so minor nobody cares them

And for whales there's several cosmetics that come out each month which are paid for only but they often are far worse gameplay wise since they're super bright and flashy which isn't too great for a game where stealth is important but they do make you stand out:

6:05- Jim talks about an abuse issue from 16 years ago
7:34- Jim talks about the activision board being on the side of the ceo.

Ah yes, Petitions from randos on the internet will surely tell the executive boards of Ubisoft and Activision to throw their bosses out, especially if they have created large profits and keep the execs rich
Jimmy-boy, are those hormone meds making you retarded and ugly?

What an unexpected and fresh topic
And he adds absolutely nothing of value, just shoehorns an anticapitalist message and (of course) himself being an "enby"

It annoys me that Jim keeps acting like he's a persecuted minority soley because he decided to identify as non binary, like if Bobby Kotick declared he was a fellow enby would Jim be forced to call them zhem a stunning and brave individual?
If the actual troons genocide or oppression comes, Jim can always put the wig off, put on a suit and continue living as if nothing happened, perhaps upping his antidepressants to make up for the excruciating pain of not forcing everyone around him to participate in his fetish. Muslim girls being sold to pedos don't have the same luxury, but hey it's clearly troons who are "the most oppressed marginalized group"

As usual Jim only knows how to argue from emotion with zero thought for what he's actually demanding.

Let's say tubby gets his way and shuts ActiBlizz down. Congratulations: You've just put 9,500 people in the unemployment line. What a hero of the people you are Jim, you blinkered mongoloid. Yeah, 'frat bro' culture sucks, but I'd bet dollars to donuts most of those thousands would prefer it to living on the fucking streets.

Then again, what should I expect from the man who decided to throw his lot in with the group who think the best cure for depression is cutting your dick off. Not renowned for their long-term strategies, that bunch.

You know what's really funny, though?

If ActiBlizz got shut down, all these woke people butchering World of Warcraft would also get put on the streets. Jim is arguing for women, minorities and transgender people to lose their jobs because some rich white guy did bad things.
