Plus, even in what you've quoted, is there anything you can cite as faulty/wrong? The media doesn't have to be a court of law, and I really don't see anything controversial in what was stated there. The entire first sentence I quoted is indefensible. The claim, though false, set off a wave of outrage that eventually escalated into a campaign against all the designers and critics who have argued for making gaming culture more inclusive. Link to proof that the claim is false? The fact that the journalist has assumed it is false means they have critically appraised some amount of evidence. For a parallel, imagine if the recent coverage of the Bill Cosby allegations was mentioned as "These claims, though false..." Yeah, it would reveal a bias. As for the second part of that sentence and rest of the paragraph, the journalist admits they have aligned themselves on the side of the alleged victim but then goes on to state the position of the 'other side' in an unflattering light. This is a 'strawman' debate tactic. I don't disagree with the ideas stated in the article... again, I really don't understand the controversy because these games sound great and I would love to try them out. I wish someone from the 'other side of this' could come in here and provide some rationale for why they think inclusivity threatens their gaming culture. If I'm in a group of only men, we all act very differently than at the office. Social interactions are 'normal' only in a given context. In first-person shooters over network, guys are pretty foul-mouthed (understatement of the century) and yet we might not even know each other's names. Do you believe they should be censored? Or do you think you should just not play those games? Because if you believe they should be censored, you've answered the question as to why they are scared. If you would rather play another game, then there is no controversy.
