Why should I care what this guy has to say isn't he a racist and we should have boycotted all BioWare and EA products because they refuse to fire him? EA/Bioware supposedly did fire him earlier this year. So I suppose you can argue that would make this headline more accurately summed up as;
"Man fired from work doesn't like former employers... also the sky is still blue and the ocean wet. Now onto sports..."Pretty much. Yeah. Right Heir is attention seeking troll whore who everybody and their brother here and at BSN Prime used to drive me fucking crazy to no end with their "lets boycott BioWare until they fired his ass" threads and posts, and now a lot of the same damn people are using his rantings because they line up with their view of microtransactions. Heir has no creditably with me and by giving this attention seeker troll whore you only play his game of his attention seeking to help get him another job and then all of you same people will complain when he gets a job elsewhere and starts making bigoted statements again don't come whining about "Heir has helped to ruin *insert game title here* and we need to boycott this developer" to me because it will be YOU the same people that once wanted his head on a plate because he is a bigot and used his rant on microtransactions lines up with yours because he will use this to get a new job in video games or as as an internet/YouTube personality. So please shut the fuck up about this attention seeking troll whore before you guys help create Anita Sarkeesian 2.0. |

There isn't anything here that we didn't already know about EA for Christ's sake. No news flash here my dude. Who cares what that supreme racist "curry thunder" says? Dude is a walking cesspit. Just another one of those "power + privilege" whiners that blames there own shortcomings on everything but themselves. Fuck him. Also, lets not give DongYea anymore YT ad revenue, kthxbai.  I've quite enjoyed Yong's video's in the past, but these past few months he's really discovered how to do 'clickbait' (which I suspect is working for him incidentally, though I personally enjoy the channel much less).  Heh, I thought the original thread was unlocked. That thread at least had more of a coherent discussion in it. You're not wrong, though if we can avoid flouting Godwin's Law and stick to talking more about EA, this one might survive a little longer...  I never even heard of the guy until he started shitting on ME:A and people around here who shared his mindset started posting and reposting his videos. Whatever value he may have had before his latest offering of hopping on the bandwagon is seemingly lost to the goal for that sweet sweet YT ad monies and dem clicks. |

This is sort of funny...seems for some people rumors on the Internet are taken for gospel when favorable ( Andromeda had only 40 million budget!) and then turn into Fake News! ( reports from former employees, Schreier's report( which turned out true in the end), glass door reviews, etc) when not. Maybe a censorship on anything but Biofan/follower videos?  Anyway, get the impression, the first half of what he's saying is very much accurate...poor management/leadership, issues with open world and Frostbite, lack of creative vision, playing it safe with setting/narrative: plenty of this are hinted in game itself, and in what followed afterwards. When he goes off with stereotyping "whites", meh, it seems he was more causing problems and turning everything into matter of skin color. |

I also like BioWare, now less, and some of their games, does that mean I should not bat an eye to their messes, last one being MEA? Lmao if that's what you're saying. I meant, here, this thread. Being a fan has nothing to do with being a total ignorant to anything that puts them in a bad light, especially the ones that are now confirmed. There's no need to be a drider. Be less defensive, it's better for us all. |

I'm not convinced that the Manveer article should be taken totally as gospel, as Manveer hardly lacks his own agenda, but the underlying criticisms appear to have some validity, even if coated with a further layer of animosity.

It only takes a little bit of google to understand the name of the Nazi party was "Nationalsozialismus". They were socialists, and like all communists end up resorting to fascist actions to enforce their nationalist utopia (as was the case with Russia and China). That is, to put it simply, a load of bullshit. As any 20th century historian (who isn’t a Holocaust denier) can tell you, the Nazis were fascists. Fascism falls on the far-right end of the political spectrum. Oh sure, the Nazis sometimes paid lip service to leftist ideals, but actions speak louder than words. The only reason the Nazis called themselves “socialists” was part of a ploy to portray themselves as upholding the rights of workers over that of industry. Of course, the “alt right” and other populist movements like to play up the fact that the Nazis called themselves socialists, since it’s a useful tool for demonizing leftists. But it’s a lie, the very same lie that the Nazis used to portray their ideology as anything but totalitarian. And if you believe that lie, then you are a gullible fool. Leftism doesn't need any lie to be demonized considering Communism (and constantly changing names when their reputation is sullied as usual, from communism to socialism to progressive whenever popular sentiment sours on the same crap with a different polish) has killed more people in this world than the Nazis ever dreamed of. I wouldn't trust someone with the naive notion that populist movements and fascist action is the purview of the right wing, and any leftist who engages in totalitarian and oppressive action was just a liar who's a right-winger fascist in disguise. Kinda tired of the leftist apologia for "that wasn't real communism, it just has to be done right this time". |

Merely using a word in the title of your political party doesn't mean anything.
North Korea calls itself the "Democratic People's Republic". When's the last time you think they held a vote there?
Sort of like how the term "microtransaction" continues to persist despite the fact that the price of these digital goods has risen substantially. My view might be skewed because everything in Australia is absurdly expensive, but the way I see it, if something costs around $5 or more, it's not "micro" anymore, it's a normal transaction.
In that sense, I find the term "microtransaction" to be rather insidious. It implies that the expenditure is minor, that it won't affect your finances, etc etc. But if a cup of coffee isn't a "micro" transaction, then neither are similarly priced digital goods.

I didn’t even mention communism, and I certainly wouldn’t equate Stalinist communism with fascism. His was a totalitarian ideology with an authoritarian tilt. The “Alt-Right” are definitely fascists in the mold of Nazis, though. Unless you’re going to try and argue that they do the Nazi salute ironically? |

He just violently suppressed all political opposition and murdered his way through political goals. Good joke.
