Not agreeing with him 100%, but DICE did take Anita's input when making the new Mirror's Edge, and according to them the game is going to be way more combat oriented because of that
You know why that's a problem? The whole point of Mirror's Edge is that you're a runner, not a fighter, changing that goes completely against the point of the game.
Anita said it herself that she didn't even play the original Mirror's Edge so she shouldn't even be anywhere near the development of the new game.

From what I've gathered the only reason that combat was even in the first Mirror's Edge is because of publisher intervention. It's most likely the same reason this time around. I don't understand how Sarkeesian influenced more combat in the game if she said it was too difficult?

Not that, look a bit into the actual development of the game, she was invited into the studio and was asked to give direct input into what they're making.
The concept trailer they showed at E3(and their talks about it) show that they're going for combat for the new game, and that they're also streamlining the game more.

now, that's not true. the concept trailer went explicitly against the streamlining with the multiple branching paths
'mirror's edge is a game that's focused very heavily on movement'
'everything is geared towards traversing and navigating this environment'
'so for the skilled player they might find the quickest the fast the most rewarding path, and then somebody with less.... skill might find a safer, longer route'
'not only are we building a broad moveset, we're also building combat... with the moveset in mind'
i think it is u

A giant portion of the praise that was given to the game was for the fact that you must avoid combat whenever possible, and even at the point where you HAVE to engage in combat, you're still not doing it head on
I don't see why the EA would want to change the game so much at this point, specially since they like to play safe and invest into the strong points that the original games had when making sequels(see: BF4, Hardline), plus the game direction change only appears to have happened after Anita got directly involved with DICE
It's more than safe to say that she was part of what led to this change

Umm.
Take that Bush?
I think so far it pretty much looks and feels like Mirrors Edge 1 only they addressed some gameplay problems.
- More variance in levels / more pathing in levels.
- Other ways to avoid enemies without running into them and doing a 3 second long disarm animation.
- Better movement options.
- Fucking pipeclimbing is 3x as fast.
The original E3 2013 trailer was super combat focused, and the E3 2014 trailer less so, i haven't noticed any influence from anita sarkeesian, and i doubt the devs of the game are mentally retarded enough to let her have a significant negative influence.
Its not like her giving a few presentations makes her the all powerful authority about the direction of Mirrors Edge 2.
so are people so desperate to keep this anita person relevant that they're fabricating absurd allegations about her, even though they claim to want her to disappear and stop being relevant?

Why are you/everybody so offended? It seems kind of silly to go from "i do not find this joke very funny" to being apparently offended at this weeb shit.
Imagine if I went "do you think everybody in lmao pics likes movies" whenever somebody posted a joke from a movie.

It's because he posted an in-joke to a niche interest and people do not usually like that even if it's not anime. It would be like me posting videogame jokes on a football forum; people would be annoyed because it didn't belong there at all. This is just the same, anime in-jokes goes in fast anime or whatever and not in lmao pics which is meant for dumb shit everyone finds funny.
Also the movie comparison doesn't really work because I'm pretty sure 99% of FP watch movies :v:

Yeah but what he posted isn't exactly an in-joke, just some random gag from that series.
If it were the exact same joke except from, say, a video game cutscene, would you get upset at that? It seems really silly to me to single this one thing to get annoyed by.
Is it because he left commentary saying that he thought the show was good?

The point was that it was dumb to get upset at it just because it isn't as widely watched.

Guess I wasn't aware that anime was still in that place where it has to be quarantined or something or people get upset, there's been plenty of anime stuff posted in here and nobody reacted to that. Here's some content instead of an argument.

I just describe myself as "generically beige", since I'm a mix of French (both directly and via Canada), Dutch, Norwegian, English, German, and possibly a bit of Crow just to keep me from being [I]too[/I] white.
I'm half Dutch, a mix of other stuff and confirmed with my grandma a few years ago that I'm a 1/16th Jewish.
