You're probably going to get banned for even saying that name... I enjoyed the game, but I wont be supporting this developer after this. :|

"Bringing people together" they said. Banning people, they did.

The dev has already explained why an alternate character is loosely designed around her, and also why he won't be allowing debate about the decision in the forums. http://towerfall.tumblr.com/post/110562144181/alternate-archers

This is not GG. This is Towerfall.

Also this thread will end up locked very shortly, I imagine.

I don't need to support #GamerGate in order to know that Anita hates most of my games in my library.

I don't need to support Anita to think that it's stupid to avoid games because of the developer's opinions.

That's why I still liked FEZ, even though Phil Fish is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid-ass ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

I can see the lack of online mode as a legitimate reason not to buy the game. Not everyone has friends to play with on a consistent basis.

And I guess maybe she likes Towerfall? Her videos feel painfully pretentious to me, as well, but I reeeeally don't care at all what she thinks about what I play.

If, to a developer, she's provided a new way to look at things, and Matt has taken this and made his game more accessible to more people because of it, I'm fine with it. I love Towerfall, and evidentally, he didn't take EVERYTHING she says and put it in the game, because this game doesn't feel anything like an explosion of feminism.

So however her view helped, and whatever Matt did, Towerfall is still very much Towerfall. If he's going to contribute some of that success to someone who's views I dislike, then that's fine with me. Her views were evidentally useful, and I really don't have a problem with that.

That is to say, Matt found some of the good in her, whilst not noticing the bad. For instance, kickstarter controversy.

And everyone overreacted to it.

I hate the internet sometimes. The stupidest little spark can start a massive flamewar.

But if someone follows Anita's advices, he won't buy many games on Steam.

Yeah, that's a good way to put it.

At least the Internet stays entertaining, right? :P

You're acting like the dev is a devout worshipper of Anita. I highly, highly doubt that's the case.

Edit. Haha... Dev-out. I didn't get much sleep. :P

Uh-huh, yup, that wasn't a horribly stupid and irrelevant thing to say at all.

I suppose it doesn't matter what he says, though. He already stated Matt's going to have him pay to play a game with Anita Sarkeesian !

When the dev put Anita in his game, did he think : "I will gain more buyers than I lost" ? Or "bad buzz is still a buzz" ?

Have you been reading or comprehending the posts? Like, at all?

I think it was a stupid decision for Matt to put in Anita, because (assuming rumors are true, I'm not sure what to believe on the internet) she's a horrible person, and people scream in anguish at the mere mention of her. Although I sort of see why he did it, he just
