don't worry the twitter execution force will ensure whoever had fun with their job will be decapitated, called thirty different slurs and will never get a job again
I just see it as controversy for attention's sake. No doubt all attention is good attention in the matter of advertising, I just don't see it as productive personally. I guess I see honey as a better way of attracting flies, with the chanosphere seeming like vinegar outside of some funny moments.
They're probably gonna find some 10 year old Tweet where the guy joked about something as evidence of THQ being "problematic".
In that order no less

"yes"
Don't joke about Destroy all Humans like that THQ. I have been eagerly waiting for it's return for years now
looks like someone's gonna get PROMOTED
To get these userbases locked into a space until the battle royale begins should be the goal of all humanity. Amazing how quiet and normal things will be afterward.
They should do a live AMA at a strip club next. Double down I say.
matey, it seems pretty fucked to compare a gaming website who have happened to have had a paedophile member or two, to a site that actively has a drawn cp board. would you be making this week ass comparison if they weren't bloody loony lefty sjws!!!
One sided shithole and populist screechpit, you can decide which is which. Marketing should have jack shit to do with a dev giving a window into production or day-today. Having an awesome grampa that makes it rain all the time with his funbux and then having your dad scoop up and drive off with all of your funbux so he can give to the Koch Brothers so they can literally wipe their asses with it while masturbating to Ayn Rand prolly isn't fun, and you're just hoping dad gets in a car wreck so you can hang out with grampa from now on.
I already have heard enough from people I know who came across this news, and are now saying "I'll never buy a game from THQ Nordic again! This industry is fucked." Some of them said this while playing Overwatch, a game owned by a company that exploits its consumers like no other and that laid off 800 employees despite record profits... I'd say a PR blunder is more tolerable than fucking over your consumers and employees, but who am I to judge I guess. At least this gave us another opportunity to laugh at ResetEra.
Child pornography is banned in 8chan as far as I know, lolicon however isn't.
Quality aside, do they want people to see this AMA or just hear about it? Because anything you post on 8chan is not going to get very much exposure compared to the regular AMA platforms
Nobody here has said anything about "loony lefty sjws", what kind of class A drug are you on? Persecution complex or what? And yeah actual pedophiles are worse than any arrangement of drawn pixels in any situation.
I like it if only for all the video game "journalists" getting their panties in a bunch
No I've just been around the block a few times and have seen a lot of 27x posts
Yeah, even on a technical level how -chan sites work its not a great place for AMA. Perhaps if you're looking on getting fringe feedback/questions could be useful, if anything. Of course this is all before the ramifications of even going there for it, hah. We still don't know if this was done to take the piss/joke/PR experiment, willful ignorance, or setup to screw with named employees / higher ups (have we ruled that out yet???)
devs should shitpost on the chans more often
Pretty sure a lot do, just anonymously. Member when Kamiya went to /v/? https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/210630/e1d33db7-00f7-4d92-ad40-a46a8d2f28bf/XHT9Y9r.jpg
Nothing about Timesplitters...
KOCH MEDIA RELEASE CORTEZ FROM THIS WHACK ASS TIME CRYSTAL
In case you weren't still monitoring the thread, they've also been using it as an excuse to shit on Amirox (the pedo ex-neogaf mod). So it's completely disingenuous to say that they aren't self aware. I say this as someone who regularly shits on resetera myself. The thing you have to understand is that the majority of the people there are actually pretty nice. Most of the site's problems are due to the mods and a small contingent of toxic members who have ban immunity due to their politics being in line with the politics said moderators. To give an example: the single biggest difference between Neogaf and Resetera is that Resetera is SIGNIFICANTLY more sex negative than Resetera. Evilore, for all his many faults, was not sex-negative (in fact, one of his earliest controversies revolved around him permabanning a female member for disagreeing within that "objectification is awesome"). The new site, however, clearly has multiple moderators and/or admins who are, and their views manifest into actual policy. So, while on Neogaf nobody gave a damn about members lusting after real and/or fake titties, you can now be banned for admitting you find a video game character hot. And tons of threads, ranging from one about fetishes, to another about celebrity crushes, have been locked because of fears that it would lead to "objectification of women," etc. And the worst part is, most of the members there don't agree with this shit. The problem is they don't have a say, because as on Neogaf, Resetera moderators rule with an iron fist an zero transparency.
8chan is not at all the best place to hold an AMA, but goddamn this drama reminded me about how much I'm sick of people throwing hissy fits over incredibly trivial matters like this because it hurt their sensitive little feelings.
i can't possibly imagine why THQ nordic would want to advertise with an AMA on the internet website where "Qanon" resides and posts, and where people went after getting chased off of 4chan for being too fucking extremist for 4chan of all places
System-wise, 8ch is like a better 4chan. It's not as lawless as people might think since they keep to their own boards. People are complaining about THQ Nordic like they posted on /pol/ or /b/, it doesn't make sense.
8chan also got blacklisted from google, the pedophilia and child abuse was so notorious.
Clearly THQ Nordic are in the wrong here for not doing their AMA on Facepunch, the best internet forum community!
Running with Scissors, the guys that did the postal games were posting on Facepunch and I think that was really positive
