While this is a fantastic start, it'd be great to get citations for all of the lies. I know they're generally well known but certain things like claiming to be cisgender seem hard to pin down explicitly.

We're going to be adding them. Don't you worry. I'm going to need help from our Kiwi operatives for it, since digging through Wu's tweets is a nightmarish endeavor, but I have a feeling they'll be up to the task.

The problem is that she lies with such frequency that it'll necessitate us renting a stadium to hold the printout for the list.

Revolution 60 gets a thorough (and I mean ridiculously so) review on Lolcow Wiki.

The article owes special thanks to @Smutley (who gave us the LP), @zedkissed60 (sales data), @Cynical (Info on the reviewer collusion), and many, many more. If I didn't mention you and you were part of it, it's no offense intended, it's just that I'm running on fumes.

I wanted to get across something when I made the bulk of that article, before you read it in its entirety. Wu's magnum opus is, for her, a big deal, and any review of her game is going to immediately beg contrast to other games. This sucks for Wu, as Wu considers her narrative-driven game different from all others and believes it to be for "Neo Gamers."


Whenever I encounter a new game, I always try to get into whether a given game is good from a crunch standpoint (as in, the gameplay, the overall fun-factor, etc) and if the game is good from a fluff standpoint (I.E. the game's world, setting, story, and so on). It's possible to score well on one, but fuck the other up completely and still, ultimately, have a good game at the end of the day. If you manage to nail both, odds are good you've got a game that's earned its praise on your hands.

So with this review, Brianna Wu got her wish, and the bulk of the review does not draw comparisons to other games until much later in the article, when such comparisons are inevitable. I also went out of my way to not do the obvious "this game is completely shit. I mean fucking look at it." I doubt she'll appreciate it, but I went out of my way to be as kind as I could towards Revolution 60 and yet I still managed to savage it. I think I'll close this out with a quote from Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw of The Escapist fame:

MGS has survived for over a decade without shitty QTES that interrupt cinematic cutscenes. Rev60 won't last a chance on Steam.

When Wu claims he's an engineer or tech woman. Or a woman in general.

Didn't you claim to be an "Unreal expert" yourself?

Welp theres the link between Brianna Wu and Brianna Flynt. Now all we need is the name change document or some equivalent that links John Flynt and Brianna Flynt.

So this is the "final polish" when "doing crunch"? Considering the possibility of new "cinematic shots" which are as-yet unplanned, bragging on Twitter about EVERY SINGLE BIT of "work"? Wouldn't that mean adding entirely new scenes / camera angles?

Yeah, Rev. 60'll be out next week. Uh-huh. Sure.

I'm amazed so much has been done so quickly. Even if this was stuff being built on for ages, it was done at just the right time to give the Flynt thread mk2 an explosive start.

You're all winner.

Anyway, maybe Wu thought 'Everyone's discussing these QTE/Lensflare/horribly designed character things' I must put them in my game and then EVERYONE WILL DISCUSS MY GAME.

Hahahaha. Here's the definitive answer on WuWu's Ole Miss enrolment:

More lies detected. Wow. There's literally nothing she ever says about herself that's true.

Holy shit - it's Flynt's kyrptonite. We finally fucking got it.

Also interesting that the dates of attendance imply that it was straight through 1996 to 2006 - am I reading this right? That somehow Flynt was at both ole miss AND Milsaps around the 2000s?

Shouldn't this coordination be off the grid? The only reason I'm asking is because I know of at least a few others where the Lolcows monitor their own threads. Activity like this might tip Wu off, or at least be seen by someone who will tip Wu off. You're not just looking at the Kiwi information collection cycle, but also Milo's ability to collate and churn out an article.

Wu can't do anything - this is all publicly information. Nothing illegal has been done.

Besides, what's the worst that can happen? Wu tries to pull a Vade and launch a follower zerg rush on us?

Oh, wait, they actually might...given they tried to get a restraining order against a fictional man.

:powerlevel: I went to one college twice. when I got my degree it said I was there from 1998-2003, but I didn't attend in 1999-2000 so I wouldn't read too much into that.

This might be off topic, but isn't lens flare something that older film makers tried to minimize because it was distracting, could obscure the actions going on in the scene, and just kind of looked bad?

Yeah, about the only place where lensflare is really applicable is space-flight scenes, just for the beauty of it. In an already-crowded-already-neon-lit scene like the entirety of rev60, it's just extraneous.

Absolutely but some game makers (and Wu) add them to make their games look more cinematic while missing your very point.
