In short, Jason attacked George Kamitani (president of Vanillaware and creator of Dragon's Crown) with that article someone posted up there, Kamitani snarked back at Jason, Jason took offense to Kamitani's reply, which sort of implies a homo agenda, writes about it, other writers from sites like Gamasutra took offense to the gay joke, barrage down on Kamitani.
Both sides are wrong, but it wouldn't have happened if not for that original clickbait line, would it?
Takes two hands to clap and whatever.
I love Jason's view on JRPGs. I really do, or even when he get some of the scoops on Fallout 4 and what's not. Those kind of articles though? Naaah.
