Episode 7: Eight Years On And We're Still Talking About GamerGate
from Game Academy
On the seventh episode of Game Academy, Steph and Adam present an incredibly delayed podcast. We battled freshers' flu to be here and we'll never leave! Long live Game Academy! Steph is more thrilled at the prospect of the academic year than Adam, who has been the target of some angry Twitterers again, having written an article NOT ABOUT GAMERGATE. It's about values. Obviously. Instead, they get dragged into the mire, and discuss the lingering impact of gamergate on the field of video game studies and the internet in general. Steph even gives her most outrageous take yet about Anthem (and since she's writing the description this month, she gets to reiterate it: Anthem is a good game!) [Adam's note: No it isn't] Read Adam's original Conversation article about Values-Conscious Games emerging in the wake of GamerGate: https://theconversation.com/how-gamergate-led-the-gaming-industry-to-embrace-more-diverse-and-caring-values-190068Why You So Angry by Innuendo Studios (Ian Danskin): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJA_jUddXvY62dhVThbeegLPpvQlR4CjFIan's GamerGate Postmortem: https://youtu.be/lLYWHpgIoIwBook your free tickets to our Gothic Games and Disturbing Play Conference: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/gothic-games-and-disturbing-play-conference-tickets-419679963067?aff=ebdsoporgprofileGet your free tickets to our special conference on N7 Day in honour of Mass Effect: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/10-years-of-the-mass-effect-trilogy-tickets-420303197177?aff=ebdsoporgprofileFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/multiplayuosSend questions and abstracts to networkmultiplay AT gmail DOT com Hosted on Acast.
