Also, it's not a 'pale shadow' when it can dog you for the rest of your career in the game industry or even if someone just happens to Google your name for some reason.

Like being called Brad McQuallude?

Yeah, it's juvenile and stupid humor. That's their goddamn target audience. To expect mature and restrained discourse from the 12 (and mentally 12) year old crew is unrealistic. Maybe in the make believe Star Trek Federation future where no one uses money and people are perfect there will be no nerd cumshot comics about female game devs and the retarted hubub surrounding them.



Oh and the shoop

It's funny how she's victimized for being somewhat pretty and showing it.

Instead of you know, blaming the pathetic horny motherfuckers who fall for something like that. I especially like how people here actually believe that she had it coming, that the pathetic disgusting little comic is somehow justified because she "is pimping herself out".

The truth is that no one of you should care even if she'd go naked.

I'm blaming the pathetic horny motherfuckers, both in the general public and the games media. Including Ubi themselves. It's great that she's somewhat pretty. It's great that she's a woman being successful in the games industry. It's less great that the head designer, etc got pretty much totally ignored in favour of the pretty girl with photos which ensured that games "journalists" would publish said photos to get more publicity for the game. She's a cog in the marketing machine. I don't blame her personally at all, I blame the machine. Well, and the pathetic horny motherfuckers.

I'd like to note here that if not for the retarded hubbub that was largely the result of people feeling they had to "defend" Jade and sternly admonish all those gamers that are keeping women out of the industry, most of us would never have seen the comic, and "the community" at large would have forgotten about it already.  But here we are still talking about it.

If all you Internet White Knights had treated it the same way we generally treat comics about game developers fucking their dogs or what have you, which is to say either "heh" or "eh" as taste dictates and move on, then it would truly not be any different.  But no, women are weak and fragile and need to be protected from those scary adolescent boys on the SA forums, right?

Once you make the conscious decision to step in front of the camera as a rep for any business, it's going to be open season on your life with the little people. If you are a fat bastard, they will call you a fat bastard. If you are a underhanded cockweasel, they will call you an underhanded cockweasel. If you are a pretty face, they will question your intelligence. If you are intelligent, they will question your values. If you are morally upstanding, they will call you ugly.

People suck. Don't step in front of the firing squad unless you can take a few hits. She needs to deal with it or get out of the way.

I'm not defending her.  Don't know her.  I'm calling everyone here an asshole who is calling her and/or Ubi an assole for doing their job, and only did that after eleven pages of hate.  

Oh, and stop playing White Knight to forum shits.  I'm sure they don't need to be protected form scary f13 posters.

Boo.
