Some digging really needs to be done on the ResetERA staffers re: how they keep attracting these developers. It's got to be some insiders forcing interaction at this point. KotakuInAction just had a highly rated post today of ResetERA's "feedback" for the Persona games(for the unitiated, they're jap games about emo/scene kids summoning spirits to solve supernatural threats to the world, with dating elements), which reads more like a ransom note from terrorists having a standoff in an airport: https://imgur.com/a/XpWnd

Did this inspire them to make fake infographics with the Resetera name on them? Gamergators really love infographics.

Hey guys, big fan of this community, ive been meaning to register for a while but finally had the time to do it.

I was a former Neogaf member back in the day, Its the most toxic, cancerous place I have ever been apart of. I was permanently banned because I said I couldn't immerse my self playing as a female character in a video game. It doesn't make me sexist pig, I respect women but its my preference to play as a male character in a game. You can imagine the responses in the thread..

Its also sad to see some of my favorite game developers joining resetERA. I guess most game developers are sjw so it shouldn't come as a surprise.

Welcome man. The bright side of NeoGAF being the shit show that it was is that it brought a lot of us together here or anywhere else to mock it. They're fighting a war that they can't possibly win and knowing that is awesome.

"Tone down on having pervert party members"? I don't get it, didn't NeoGafsetera always want to be represented more?

Anyways back on topic I guess the thing is, that's the best major gaming forum with the community kinda fitting for more high profile industry insider, despite all the LARPer idiots pretending they know about videogames. Like, the Reddit's major gaming subreddits are shit and cancer, full of crap meme posts and other rubbish. r/gamedev is mostly hobbyist and beginner gamedevs. The specific game or series dedicated subreddits don't work if you wanna talk with other industry reps outside of those you could already meet during a coffee break. 4chan and to some extent other imageboards could be fun for insiders if they wanna shit talk without nobody being wiser about them breaking NDA, sure, but it's infamous for forgeries, has bad rep, and anonymous nature means people will demand proof you're from company X every damn time. Twitter has lots of industry people including living legends, notable indies, and some AAA CEOs, buuuut it's not a forum for long form discussion. There are some other blogs too but I guess they died out as people converged to NeoGAF, where the strict moderation could actually appeal to insiders who don't care about shitposting and any sort of fun because they're AAA game devs so fun is anathema to them. When the schism happen, many could have just moved with the flow hence that one ended up with so many insiders and leaks.

“Male players should be forced to relate to female characters!”

> Consider an adult cast in a workplace or college setting

“Waaah! We can’t relate to the teenage characters, change it immediately!”

Oh man the Alex Jones clip had me rolling haha. Yeah in a strange way its hard for me to find enjoyment playing some of my favorite games knowing the developers are interacting with the bunch of morons at ResetERA. I think only a handful of devs had the balls to call out GAF community for what they really are.

Thanks a lot bro :)

ResetERA is basically all the SJW and pedos from Neogaf condensed into one site. Its only a matter of time before they crash and burn.

Its zero tolerance for advocating for pedos and lolicon. Even being fine with killing virtual children is permabannable. Perhaps they are compensating for something.

He didn't sic anyone on him. Also the context of this was about DOAX3 and he was the one who brought up Gamergate.

I've come to notice that a majority cases of "Person/company X sicced a harassment mob on me" is a DARVO tactic to sic your own followers on someone you're made at because they dunked on you.

Colin made a joke (that his own wife found funny mind) during the #ADayWithoutWomen hashtag. This got enough backlash that Colin was thrown under the bus by Kinda Funny and forced to go indie. Ironically in the process, his new show, Colin's Last Stand, now has one of the most successful Patreons I've ever seen. Last I checked he has over 4.2 thousand patrons.

So he's basically in the same boat as Daniel Varva in that he said something innocent years ago and now ResetEra are using their new power to silence him. Every day, they further prove Malka right when he noted that most of the ResetEra mods were judged too crazy for NeoGaf.

What's this talk about devs going to ResetEra and them having any power though? Did I miss something? They actually have some kind of push now in the industry?

I think it's funny that even though ResetEra tries to distance itself from NeoGaf, they have no problems using the fact that "NeoGaf was a popular place for developers to post leaks back in the day," to try and get some people to register with them. They want to have their cake and eat it, too.
