That Nyberg and Amirox denouncements will be here any day now... (I've made that joke a few times before, but I still find it funny that ResetEra keeps virtue signalling about being anti-cp despite looking the other way for their friends.)
I don't know why Dead or Alive brings out the autism in so many left leaning game sites, but it does. I can't find the link, but there was an article where one woke game journalist complained about Dead or Alive Xtreme characters being white, only to completely change the article when people pointed out it was a majority Asian cast.
@Jaimas you happen to have it? There was also an article on Kotaku that attempted to argue liking big breasts meant you were a paedophile.
And it goes without saying, but Dead or Alive has already been censored due to complaints from the games press and sites like ResetEra, but it's never enough.
My running theory on it stems from the fact that the assholes pushing this hate men, but there's a bit more to it than that. In their worldview, no alternatives to dating some shrill autistic harridan can be allowed to exist. Just like you're not allowed to have any gods before Social Justice and you're not allowed to have escapism, lest you realize that there is more life to live, you're not allowed to fantasize about conventionally attractive women in their circles, because attractiveness is something that the insane childless psychopaths running these cults of personality virtually never have.
Such is their hatred of such women that they are threatened by fucking fictitious and even 2D women. The same people screaming about a need to ban waifu shit are, without exception,
the same people who will scream about a need to outlaw grid girls or
push the EU to ban thin fashion models, regardless of how many women such a decision will ultimately impact. Under the thin decoration of concern for the condition of women, the arrogant heart below tells all: That the people pushing this are raging weals of insecurity, who have nothing of substance to offer over the fucking Avatar I'm currently using on this website. And that shit is
fucking hilarious.
As for the woke journo declaring that the game was white supremacy, there was
one that did, and they deleted fucking everything regarding it.
A single Google cache is all that remains of the article, and if you know our propensity for snapshotting everything of remote value we come cross that should give you a general idea of how thoroughly this one got scrubbed.
The last one is m'favorite though: It wasn't
DOA specifically that was involved with the incident in question, but
Jed Whitaker was the one who wrote a long-winded article
declaring that every fan of weeb games was a pedophile - a position that, ultimately,
spelled the end of his career at Destructoid, at which point he blamed Gamergate. It is worth noting that when he was fired, this was during a time when he was
already working for free, on top of the fact that
this forced the site owner to publicly apologize for his outbursts.
