I'd love to say I'm shocked by the incredible hatred and harassment of what amounts to a pretty basic video game critic, but the last few years have definitely shown us the sheer amount of insane garbage people that share my favorite hobby. It's disgusting. I don't understand it. She's literally talking about games and pointing out how they can be more inclusive. I'd love to be able to show my niece a game and not recoil because of sexist tropes.
Games will never be seriously considered as art as long as the community attacks critics like this. More voices are a good thing! More variety in games, more people sharing our hobby, more people to listen talk about games! But no, we have to intimidate them, scare them away, and keep our precious games to ourselves.
