Just about every scandal nowadays has "gate" at the end of it, so it's not necessarily a GG reference. Combined with the "five fun guys" on the other hand….

>>325138 there were technically 5 men held in connection to the Watergate break-in, so both -Gates have 5 Guys involved. Plausible deniability http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/watergate-burglars-now/story?id=16567157

>>325143 Do you think Zoe Quinn was involved with Watergate's five guys?

>>325145 Suddenly, it all makes sense!

>>325121 JUST FUCK PAPER MARIO UP

>>325145 She fucked them? maybe?

>>325143 How convenient for them. Once some triggered accusses them of racism\transphoby\sexism for this refference, they may say it was not about GG.

I dunno, OP. Could just be what >>325143 is saying.

>>325145 I wonder if Shillary was. They DID fire her from the investigation.

>>325265 there are layer on layers in play here. After all, "5 fun guys" said quickly aloud is "5 Fungi" or 5 toads/mushroom people(mushroom/toadstool/fungi being loosely interchangeable here as an english turn-of-phrase). There's a lot to read into, and this is actually notable inprevious Paper Mario titles as well. In general they are well-translated and a labor of love with some of the extra text added in. Is it Gamergate? I think so, with carefully masked intentions and false trails.

>>325285 I'm just glad to see Nintendo doing some excellent, clever translations instead of the terrible localizations we've been seeing in games like Breath of Fire.

Fuck yeah i love it when media companies use memes that are somewhat recent instead of that stupid frog on a unicycle which is actually one of those forced memes someone dug up from imgur or something

All about the ethics in mighty #9

>>325317 fuck that is cringey and awful. game looks shitty too, the dash is so out-of-place with the bland level layouts and otherwise slow movement. It's like they learned nothing they pioneered with the Megaman X games.

Whoever runs that sonic twitter account needs to be given a raise pronto,

The internet has not been kind to the #9 but then again if 4 million was raised via crowd funding and it looks like a ps1 game with pizza fire explosions people won't exactly be kissing the ass of the devs who made it

>>325347 Weren't the gaming press gushing over that Balder's Gate game that had an NPC talk about 'ethics in [something fantasy related]'? They didn't say anything about how immersion breaking that was, but now it's suddenly a problem?

>>325369 that's because it also had a trans character.

>>325369 Because gaming publication are starting to realize that cracking fun at GG for wanting ethics isn't working, because these SJW influenced games all have the same problem as of late: they suck. Also, with Gawker going down, this whole ethics thing isn't a joke anymore.

Post your fuckin' face when

>YFW It took her long enough to find that i was actually counting down till she makes a tweet about it the dumb bitch cannot simply not respond

Bonus image right here

Seems that it is a reference to Watergate judging by pic related, but who knows. It's basically just a reference either way, nothing for or against either side as far as I can tell.

>>325390 Welcome to Gamergate, you must be new. "Gamergate" WAS a Watergate reference when Baldwin coined the term.

>>325121 So you got triggered when Baldur's Gate took the piss out of GG, but now Mario does it it is suddenly #based?

>>325382 Top kek, I'm pretty stoked. ESPECIALLY when the Watergate plausible deniability is real.

>>325406 >So you got triggered when Baldur's Gate took the piss out of GG, but now Mario does it it is suddenly #based? wat.jpg Are you thinking of Pillars of Eternity? IIRC that was something to do with a backer's poem that was changed, and an involvement of JE Sawyer who iirc is a goon (ropekid?) and some socjus clique crying because the backer's original poem triggered -them-. And this thing right now is looking more like it really was a reference to Watergate, Nixon era. The narcisstic LWs and the whiteknight crew thinking it's all about them because it just must be because reasons, just makes it funnier. And it gets gutbustingly hilarious when they say even if it is a Watergate reference, due to 'recent events' it should be seen through their socjus warped lens.

A Treehouse rep called GamerGate a "hate movement". Jesus Christ, isn't there something we can do to get rid of Treehouse? All they do is ruin everything they touch.

>>325382 >>325389

>>325411 He probably means Baldur's Gate, the expansion pack that was just released had Minsc do an "it's about ethics in…" line. The developers eventually agreed it was a shit line and not one that should've been in the game to begin with. Though anybody who got "triggered" by that is a faggot. It means you've got some dumbass so obsessed with GamerGate that he will gladly immortalize his hatred into a video game even if it lowers the quality of what he actually releases. He considers virtue signaling like this more important than his actual job. And he won't even get a blowjob for it while people he's trying to take the piss out of it will laugh at his miserable life.

>>325416 >He probably means Baldur's Gate, the expansion pack that was just released had Minsc do an "it's about ethics in…" line. Ah ok. Well call me slowpoke.jpg on that one then. My apologies to ID:74c5c7 >The developers eventually agreed it was a shit line and not one that should've been in the game to begin with. >Though anybody who got "triggered" by that is a faggot.

Yep. I think it's pretty much a Streissand effect by now.

>>325346 >Sonic Twitter saying "It's better than nothing." Even Mighty No. 9 is way better than the fucking faggotry Sega/SonicTeam churns out that they claim are "Sonic" games. Fuck on outta this galaxy, Sega. Fucking give NiGHTS a new goddamn game for the 20th anniversary.

>>326453 >being so pleb you don't know that a shitposting twitter account isn't the real Sonic Team / Sega AM2
