Bloodporne Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I tend to never watch any of these videos but this one was interesting. I actually assumed game reviews influence sales more than that honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal-El814 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Thanks for the link. I know it’s ancient history now, but I’d be interested to know whether or not she feels like things that led to Gerstmann getting fired still happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually assumed game reviews influence sales more than that honestly. I still think they do to a degree. Maybe not scores but overall impressions that quickly spread throughout social media. Death Stranding sold pretty poorly. It sold big initially but sales dropped off a cliff after the first week when word of mouth and reviews were read I think a lot skipped it.

SoberChef Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I had sincerely thought about sharing this vid when I watched it at like 9am this morning but wasn't sure if many even knew who Alanah was or even cared about what she had to say. Glad to see others are a fan as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the point, to work your way up. She was with ign for multiple years, and Funhaus at least 2. This is s dream job, and what she seems to want to do, so good for her.

Bloodporne Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I like that someone actually replied "What does a video game writer actually do?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if we’re going to look at the writing for every God of War game up until the most recent one... probably not all that much? “So Kratos skullfucks this thing, punish fucks some women until they cum orbs, flashback to a stupid decision Kratos made that a child would have known better than to do, Kratos says, ‘by the gods what have I become,’ do a coin flip to see if he’ll try to commit suicide in this game or the next one, and roll credits. Pad that shit out with 8-12 hours of mashing square, square, triangle and I think we got it!” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody still technically wrote "skullfuck a minotaur bitch", so my initial point stands I secretly hope that Alanah Pearce randomly brings back absolutely hideous macho violence out of the blue and confuses the shit out of everyone.

johnny Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 She's probably going to start out by writing descriptions for characters and collectibles. Stuff like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
