We can't all be bitter, condescending men screaming at Twitter, John.
 
I notice Wu's articles are written largely in first person perspective and contain the word "I" about fifty times. Isn't that a massive taboo in journalism unless it's an opinion piece?

I would argue that John is incapable of writing anything but. Narcissists are not widely renowned for their ability to stay objective.

Depends on the formality of the publication. Which means Wu has carte blanche to use it at will.

Poor John, can't get anything right.
Tries to play games, fails.
Tries to make games, fails.
Tries to be female, fails.
Tries to be a wife, fails.
Tries to be relevant on Twitter, fails.
I bet he snores.
And never wipes properly.

I wonder how many infections he got for wiping back to front.

Text says that Girlfriend Mode is now unlocked, except they changed the game so that it's unlocked from the start.

It never ceases to astonish me how little work went in to this release. Just what was Wu doing during those two years that this was in development? A lot of these things just needed a day or two of love and attention paid to them to fix, they're not massive changes.

I'm more than ever convinced that Wu doesn't have the slightest clue how the game actually works, and it incapable of making even the easiest changes like making the links in the bonus menu point to actual live websites.

She spent two years boasting about how she was doing a multimillion dollar expansion to her "studio", in hard copy print no less, all the while the only thing she had to show that her studio could deliver a product was quietly bitrotting. Now that it's abundantly clear that GSK isn't going to be a huge development company, she's dumped all the responsibility for making it right on Frank who already has a job of his own.

BriBri is a completely useless cunt.

That margin of error :story:

Judging by other low selling games, 500 +- 1000 is Steamspy's way of saying they sampled one user out of their huge user list who owns the game.
 
In science if the margin of error is larger than a certain delta they say that it's unlikely or not true.

The margin of error here is actually larger than the fucking result. Can we even say that this game actually exists?

Yeah, there's something almost Alice-In-Wonderland-meets-1984 in the insistence that the change in gender changes pronouns retrospectively as well, prompting articles to refer to how "Caitlyn Jenner met her first wife Chrystie Scott in 1972 and had two children with her, winning the men's decathlon at the 1974 Olympics two years later". That's literally the only way they'll accept you writing about that stage of Caitlyn's life, and it's nonsense unless you know the bigger picture. Style guides try to dance around this ('she parented a child' - maybe if we imply they're adopted then that's a better result?) but they can't cover all cases ('she won one of the decathlons at the 1974 Olympics')

So too was Brianna's insane "well, I'd write around the pronouns" claim. Brianna, earn my respect and fucking rewrite that obituary about that person, only not using pronouns - what a perfect example to showcase your journalistic skills, hey? Rewrite that shit the way it should have been written, post it on Medium and you'll actually show all us schmoes how fucking easily the right thing can be done. Oh wait, no, pronouns exist for a reason, you can't just will away sections of the English language that you find problematic. At least we don't have a language like French or whatever, where the nouns have genders. Can you imagine Brianna's salt-stream of being told her computer is the masculine 'le ordinateur' and there's no female form for it?

Wu would get so many facts wrong in her articles, piss off other "progressive" folk (Rat King), and by then Wu would have burnt bridges with numerous contributors to her site and they'd smell enough blood to come out with their horror stories. Journalism is the worst pretend occupation for Brianna because it involves interacting with other people.

People whose literal job is smelling blood in the water and going into a feeding frenzy.

Jump into that tank, John. Do eet.
