The guys discuss the recent report by Kotaku released this week on the shady institutionalized sexism at Riot Games, the people behind League of Legends. There’s also hints of racism as well, especially since everyone in charge is, well, a white male. Otherwise, T.J. gushes about his experiences at EVO, the fighting game convention/competition, and is looking forward to QuakeCon.
The news this week includes:
- Siege’s next season Operation Grim Sky unveiled
- The World Ends With You for Switch gets release date
- IGN pulls review and fires writer for plagiarism
- Grand Theft Auto 5 still going strong after five years
And Jonah confesses he still hasn’t played GTA5 because, well, GTA4 soured him on the series.
Formerly Green Monster Games, 38 Studios is growing a large pool of talented folks for their MMO endeavor. First, we heard R.A. Salvatore (writer of the Dark Elf series) was heading over to work on a story, art direction by Todd McFarlane (creator of Spawn) and now Irena Pereira from Blizzard and a sound designer, Aubrey Hodges.
