I wonder how many of the obviously angry people are just jelly because Wu makes like $150,000 US a year just by tweeting shit.

I know I am!

I wouldn't take that number too seriously. Just like she exaggerated being in supposed dire poverty while still spending lots of money on frivolous shit, the Patreon amount is an exaggeration too. I'd say I'd like to see the 1040s but those would probably be lies too.
 
What gets me too about Brianna is the fact that she is a staunch feminist and refuses to acknowledge the fact that she used to be a man in any capacity (IIRC), is it denial or self loathing?

Possibly. While it's nice she at least hasn't been throwing around the trans card in addition to the feminist bullshit - the latter is bad enough as it is - it might be out of a fear of the psychological paradox reminding her followers that she's genetically a man would undermine everything she's said in pro-SJW terms as well as the now-thoroughly-debunked claim that Giant Spacekat is a completely woman-only workforce. She's so far into the "all men don't know shit!" bandwagon that pointing out she IS a former man herself would be tantamount to L. Ron Hubbard having declared over international broadcast that the religion he founded was in fact a cult built entirely to make people think he was Jesus 2.0.

Have you seen the anti-trans SJWs? Their insanity makes Wu's seem like a pleasure cruise.

So...like the Titanic compared to the movie Posideon?

Hasn't she already indicated that she did none of the work aside from the basic concept?

We aren't even sure of that anymore.

Let this sink in -
I don't think anyone who is in the financial position to pay someone with the sole job of screening what people say about you on the internet is in any real danger posed by death threats.

Like the people at disney parks who screen the on-ride photos?

Downloaded Revolution 60.

First thought: "They looked like adult Bratz dolls. This would be right up Mylar's alley."
Oh my god.

He is the only one who would like that shit, isn't he?

How?

Not from royalties from her game (I've seen that, it looks mediocre at best), Not from advertisements on the twitters or the youtubes (those don't really make much unless you're Game Grumps or some shit), Certainly not from being a color commentator (I don't think those people get much at all)

So, like, How?
 
Apt comparison. Wu's logic is just doomed to sink, while anti-trans SJWs' logic is upside-down and makes your brain hurt (before it kills you).
I'd say Wu's logic steamed right into the thing that tore a giant-ass hole in it and due to poor internal support there was no way to actually stop it from being consumed by actual logic.

The point where the R.M.S. Logic of Wu snaps in half will be the same point when Wu herself finally snaps as there's nothing she can ultimately do to silence the critics anymore.

This keeps getting kicked around so I want to make sure it's really blatant:

UNLESS BRIANNA WU IS LYING SHE ONLY RECEIVED A ONE TIME $10,000 DONATION FROM AN UNDISCLOSED SOURCE

Her normal patreon is around $3k a month, and she hasn't seen a noticeable increase in contributors for months now.

Still, it's been holding that huge amount for a LONG while now, if it was just a one-time thing, shouldn't it eventually reset?

Yeah that's what I've been checking on. If it's not off the books by next week there's something extra-fishy going on. The rumors going around are that the donator is either her parents, Anita, or Zoe trying to funnel money to another "charity" that helps victims, since Wu started one in November with 1k personal donation and a one time 10k "undisclosed" donation from a "third party".

Another thing to bear in mind is the way the whole SJW Patreon scheme works for these people. Person A contributes to Person B who in turn contributes back to person A. A lot of these numbers are inflated by the SJW circle jerk. Look at her Patreon page and see how many people she contributes to herself and you will get an idea of how things work.

I know I am!

Hasn't she been requesting all of her donors remain anonymous and not disclose how much they are donating? That seems pretty sketchy to me.

I hope she hasn't done anything silly like make multiple deposits in smaller amounts to conceal the size of that one time "donation," because that's called structuring transactions. It's a felony.

A guy named Kent Hovind is doing hard time in Club Fed for that. Why, there's even a thread for him right here.
 
To be fair most trans people simply want to live life quietly as their proper gender. I'm trans and I don't wear a sign around my neck proclaiming my trans status, unless people ask me directly I just live my life. I know the whole wymyn with a dick thing is so funneh to some people but honestly I think Brianna is a lolcow because she's an arrogant asshole who happens to be trans rather than the other way around.

The only reason I even asked the question is because it seems like a perfect subject for Wu to use as cannon fodder against her detractors. Given her personality I would have expected to see her pull the "I'm not just a woman, I'm a trans woman" card out of her oppression deck. We have a good herd of lolcows who are arrogant assholes who happen to be trans (Rika, ADF, Vade, even OPL tried to get in on it) but they all make being trans a huge part of their identity. They're very vocal about it. Brianna is the exception, but her behavioral pattern suggests she shouldn't be.

It just strikes me as odd.

Before Brianna was Brianna, he was a super creepy dude named John Flynt. The last thing he wants is to give people a reason to look at his behavior back then.

I don't know much of anything about her life before she transitioned. If there is a shady past going on (which wouldn't surprise me) then that explains why she's kept the trans card in her deck.

I apologize if I implied you were being transphobic. I just see a lot of stuff on this board that comes dangerously close to bashing trans people and got tired of it. As for Wu it's possible she fears her "feminist" card will be revoked if she comes out more strongly in favor of trans issues.
 
He really doesnt want to admit that the game is crap

the funny parts

We threw everything into uncompressed animsets, multiple characters onscreen and voice acting, which was absolutely the right call.

the characters move like robots, multiple characters that looks the same and awful voice acting

A lot of people have critiqued the flat shading of the characters. Well, unlike Infinity Blade, we regularly have 4-5 people on screen at once!

a lie, almost all the game is just two models with the awful battle system

You should understand this: As we made Revolution 60, the traditional core gamer was not our priority

we wanted the idiots who played candy crush saga.

I have watched playtesting sessions where core male gamers would HAMMER the iPad glass so frantically trying to attack everything, I was worried they’d break our devices.

even i would want to destroy the tablet that show me that abomination from hell

“This is the first game I’ve ever played that didn’t make me feel stupid for being new.”
“I’m going to buy an iPad so I can play this when it comes out.”
“This is the first game I’ve played that makes me feel welcome even though I’m not a gamer.”

pffftt AJAJAJAAJAJA OH BOY THAT WAS A GOLDEN ONE, i wonder who hasnt played ANY GAME before Revolution 60

Revolution 60 is about things many core gamers don’t particularly value. And that’s actually the whole point.

and still he put that on steam... the mecca of "core gamers"

tl;dr IS NOT MY FAULT IS NOT MY FAULT IS NOT MY FAULT
 
Wow, not one positive comment on that thread of hers. I wonder if she'll get the hint?
