@zutt lmao
A game company ...lmao not a core gamer who would have thought
Doesnt sound sexist to me
depends on why they think they are not a gamer
That article is kind of all over the place
the person could just not play games... or could be they are stuck in the 80's where "women don't play games"
“Talented woman”
or they just suck at gaming!
Preferencing Riot’s definition of “core” gamers during hiring means drawing in employees from a larger pool of men than women. Avid players of MOBAs (multiplayer online battle arenas, a genre encompassing popular games including League of Legends and Dota 2) and first-person shooter fans are typically men.
Talented women wanting to get hired so the can get the #metoo dollars 💵
Lel
this article is filled with 50/50 statements that could be examples of sexism.... but also could just be women just happened to not fit.
vaugeness 😉 the best weapon of SJW's arsenal
so you can change your debate stance to wherever suits you
thought bullshit was their best weapon? or are they the same thing?
Im for women getting hired but playing the “let me blame something other than me “ why i cant move up
Id fucking hire an attractive women over a man with the same qualifications for a marketing job because dat bitch could market shit which = 💰
Lmao
Another woman, who was interviewing for a position far removed from games or game development, said she felt like she wasn’t being taken seriously because, instead of playing League of Legends, she casually played World of Warcraft.
👌
@zutt she was a filthy casual
Disgusting
like "She said her direct manager would ask her if it was hard working at Riot being so cute" that is a legit potential HR incident that i wouldn't care about because i would think that guy is an asshole. even if it was me being told something similar by a female manager i would be like "excuse me? what bs is that?"
"After an idea she really believed in fell flat during a meeting, she asked a male colleague to present the same idea to the same group of people days later. He was skeptical, but she insisted that he give it a shot. “Lo and behold, the week after that, [he] went in, presented exactly as I did and the whole room was like, ‘Oh my gosh, this is amazing.’ "
that would be a legit reason to question things... unless that "colleague" was slightly hire up the food chain then its bs again
probably an accurate picture of her
beard and all
atleast they're not console peasants
The woman who was asked about her World of Warcraft gear said she felt like an interviewee’s record wasn’t as valued as their ability to fit into Riot’s culture. Even outside of the apparent emphasis on being a “core gamer,” she questioned what interviewers meant when they talked about “culture fit.”
Kek
I never knew riot was this much based
Have more respect for them now
they're a riot
booo
off the stage
the solution here is: tell people to not work at riot, find a better game studio, or make your own
Knock Knock,
Who's there?
Fak,
Fak who?
Fakkaf you filthy casual!
its that simple
tbh, most game dev places SUCK to work at
As a self identifying Windup duck, I've oftened wondered why people don't just randomly give me money when they are passing near me. Now, I must assume they are WindupDuckAphobic.
not even valve, apparently, is that great either
