Support NeoGAF

[darkressurection]

I wonder if Miranda is bi-polar.



Also Aquasilk.

Yes, Aquasilk is quite a dapper gentleman. Especially since he was on the Mega Man X the other day.

She's also not going to Final Round b/c "members of the community scared her away"...please. Get out of here with that nonsense.

Ehh, staying out of the "spotlight" for a while is probably the best thing she can do. FR isnt going to be worse because she's not going or because she's afraid of what might happen to her if she goes.

I have to come clean. I tweeted that article to her. I expected the same response to it from her as the Dtoid article. It backfired.

You shitted your pants.

Hold up, so you're saying a NeoGAF'er will be responsible for the death of E-Sports?

 

[sephi22]

That I did.
Great game.

Nycfurby's a gaffer, dood.

 

[theowne]

I dunno, tried to go without blaming Miranda but she's not making it easy.

 

[Hitokage]

I have a feeling people are going to get burned out talking about this and then they'll just try to forget it all.

Stream monsters never forget. Not now, not 8.95 years from now.

This got me.

 

[crimzonflame]

I admit I wasnt gonna buy this game till Sakura was available but I went ahead and pre-ordered. You can thank the stream for that.

 

[sephi22]

I'm starting to believe that Miranda played the major role in blowing this up to where it is now.

Instead of ignoring people who are bashing her on Twitter, she's responding to each tweet saying stuff like 'This is huge part of FGC and my life.'

I supported her on FB and Twitter, but I'm finding it hard to sympathize with her. Aris had 1 tweet on his Twitter in the last 3 days. Dude knows to keep his mouth shut. Miranda should just stop tweeting and chill for a while.

 

[MThanded]

Lets see how many ignorant fools sent stuff to Patrick. I dont have faith in stream monsters sending in substantive feedback about this situation.

considering how quickly triforce's dick entered the convo...

 

[BaroqueSampson]

"@MarkMan23 Hopefully you understand this wasn't about trying to paint a broad brush about the community."

I really, really appreciate Patrick trying to get all sides of the story and input from the community regarding this story instead of just writing from videos/twitter.

Good one lmao

[theowne]

Yep. The original article may have lacked a lot but it's great that Patrick is making an effort to get the full story.

 

[darkressurection]

Art REALLY shouldn't say "blow it up" at an airport.

she didnt even have a twitter account before SFxT. Ricky O. has been pushing her to "standarize" herself as a female rep of a fighting game player.

Normally I would laugh but this is NO JOKE MAN.

Danm

FGC story spilling over the mainstream Gaming Media? They dont know what they in for

 

[Corky]

art streaming?

 

[Kamek]

lol. You're so right.

 

[Nabs]

There must be 8 streams going on right now

 

[sephi22]

Well, not the best choice of words, but you know what I was trying to say in that context. Aris has kept mum since the controversy. Didn't even take LI Joe's bait.

All I know is that he's going to charge it then blow it up

Fuck. :lol

THIS IS WHAT I GET FOR PLAYING LOL. LOOK HOW MUCH I MISSED.

 

[enzo_gt]

Overall, it's hard for me to even conceive how overall this wasn't an incredibly successful marketing campaign, if not the best they've ever had.

This show catered to the community, and I'm sure it's drawn in tons who just came for the FGC drama and not SFxTK. It's a win-win for everyone. Except Miranda. We got the hype, we got the drama, we got the pop offs, we got (a bit) of solid play, etc.

I'm not buying SFxTK, but I'll be damned if this stream didn't tempt me some more. And I'm sure plenty of GAFers have been sold on it since the show began.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Yep. The original article may have lacked a lot but it's great that Patrick is making an effort to get the full story.

Yeah I definitely appreciate the effort. MThanded you were right about this guy.

 

[MThanded]

Did you guys expect anything less from Patrick? Giant Bomb always does great work in my opinion.

They have really won me over. I listen to the podcast weekly and pay for premium.

 

[BaroqueSampson]

I'm a really big fan of the GiantBomb crew.

This. Patrick is one of the hardest working journalists in the industry.

 

[darkressurection]

Yeah, so far it seems like Patrick is the only one reaching out to the community for comment so good on him.

 

[spindashing]

Wait hold up, what streams should I be watching right now?

 

[Stabby McSter]

If you want to see Arturo stream from an airport, watch his. That's the only one I have open at the moment.

When do the challenges start?

 

[JeffGreen]

And the key word there is "journalist." Unlike a great many in the profession (unfortunately), he actually makes the calls, asks tough questions, checks his sources, and gets all sides. He's one of the best not only because he's just fundamentally good, but because so many don't even know how to do the job.

I am just watching Arturo's at the moment.

Except the initial article he put out did not do that, hence why he's doing that now.

Their Quicklooks about fighting games are atrocious though, they don't bother to inform themselves about anything before they go through 'em. It has this weird comedic charm otherwise, but with Fighting Games it's weird to hear them make stuff up as they go.

Thanks, dudes.

It's also worth noting he said on Twitter he rushed his first article to beat Jim Sterling. So let's not go too crazy with the praise.

This. Jeff's the fighting game head of the crew and even he does some scrubby shit on the Quick Looks.

yea maybe he saw the destructoid article said said to himself "shit I need to make sure I'm not like THEM".

GB is usually pretty good. They have to be considering it was indirectly started because of the Kayne and Lynch fiasco.

Ok nevermind I guess.

Yeah, I'm a fan of GB and a premium member, but I've actually started avoiding their fighting game stuff because of this.

Whoa Black Dragon in the house.
