THIS.  THIS RIGHT HERE IS WHY I FUCKING HATE GAMERS SO FUCKING MUCH.

MY FUCKING GOD, CAN'T HANDLE EVEN THE SLIGHEST AMOUNT OF DISAPPOINTMENT, CAN YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!?  YOU GOTTA GET ALL RILED UP AND PISSY TO THE POINT OF THREATENING TO KILL PEOPLE.

FUCK YOU.  YOU PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT PROBLEMS IN THE GAME INDUSTRY.  YOU ARE THE PROBLEMS WITH THE GAME INDUSTRY.  PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS YOU FUCKING SPOILED BRATS!

</rage>

Sorry about that.  Just had to vent about this kind of bullshit.
Mockery of ideas you don't comprehend or understand is the surest mark of unintelligence.

Let's be clear here.  These were not death threats towards her.  Oh no.  These were towards her children.

Ironbite-I fucking hate entitled douchnuggets in this generation of gamers.

One kid makes an obvious joke on League of Legends, gets dragged to jail for it. people make clear threats against her, and what happened? An article on Polygon said she left for family reasons and to work on a book, but surely BioWare can take legal measures against this, or was the amount of threats so vast that it wouldn't be viable? either way, there is a lot of psychotic adult-babies in fandom today.

I'd imagine it's a combination of too many and the PR nightmare it would cause. You don't have fans arrested, no matter what.

If said fans are threatening to kill children I think they should be arrested. And I don't think anything of value is lost if the people who support sending death threats to children no longer like your company.

I don't even know what they got angry over but I don't think anything could justify THREATENING THE CHILDREN OF THE WRITER!

EDIT: People have also gotten death threats when they changed the amount of damage some guns in Black ops 2 did...

What. The. Hell.

And "fans" have been tricking SWAT teams to invade the homes of game designers they don't like. I am actually starting to think that if all video games are outlawed and forcefully removed then the net gain for humanity would be positive. And I love videogames, but if there are people like this I am starting to think that maybe humanity as a whole is not ready them. Or firearms, or anything more advanced than a stick.

Never said it was okay, or that they're of value. However, people would immediately like "Oh, you can't take anything negative? So if we criticise you we'll be thrown in jail? Fine, no money for you". People are stupid.

They're not THAT stupid. I don't care how much of a cynic you are, but it's going to be a minority who respond like that.

There is a difference betweent criticism and death threats. If people don't understand this yet then it should be hammered into their heads.

The Bioware fandom is one of the worst ones out there. I don't know what about the games they make causes bad people to come around.

I honestly wouldn't give a rat's ass if the Bioware forums went down and the employees stopped interacting with the fans.

I finally got a character in ME 3 to Lvl 60 on a replay, and now I'm finally getting my weapons and upgrades to Lvl X.  I also beat the Arena Mirror Match after (I lost count of how many) tries. 

I did find a glitch on Pain Train where, if you use Pull too many times on opponents, at least one will get stuck somewhere, rendering the map unbeatable.  It happened twice and both times, I couldn't find the last opponent.

It's Kotaku. If anyone would run ads like that alongside such an article, it would be that bunch of inbreds.

Ahh Project Wonderful.  You truly are Wonderful.

And actually the game isn't about screwing wood elfs.  It's about.....some sort of management sim.  I don't know.

Ironbite-I don't play the damn thing.
