Are you SERIOUSLY this stupid and triggered? They've said NOTHING about "woke" anything, and your dumb ass goes off like this is gamer gate? Fuck you. Fuck you, you illiterate moron.
This is about how Epic, the corporarion Tim Sweeny leads, a corpo that's a big player in the games industry, is FAILING to identify that it is quality, not budget that determines if a game sells.
... and then you come in here saying GamerGate shit. Fuck off, you inflammatory dumbass. Seems like you need to get past Reddit culture, troll.
Someone needs to go for a walk
Yes, the guy I replied to. They need to walk to their nearest college and learn how, "reading between the lines" is NOT about applying any and all conspiracy thinking to a subject...
I saw your reply and regret to inform you the other folks are right, I'm no gamergater and the context isn't even right. Woke is a descriptor that causes me to buy a game. "Core" referred to gamers that were willing to grind, basically; it was a useful demographic for describing players and I don't really know what has replaced it.
