32% Diversity in Gaming Devs? The Story Behind the Numbers

The Latest Saga in Gaming's DEI Obsession Welcome to the twisted world of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in gaming. On the surface, a recent article by TheGamer shouts triumphantly that, "Women and Non-Binary Devs Now Make Up 32% of All Game Developers, Up from 24% in 2022." At first glance, it sounds like like we're heading towards their version of "progress". But when you unpack this narrative, things start to smell like a steaming bowl of overripe propaganda. Is this statistic truly the direction gaming is heading, or is it just another way to gatekeep and play identity politics? Grouping Women with Non-Binary: A Misleading Narrative First, let’s address the elephant in the room.Grouping women with people who identify as non-binary individuals under one umbrella is like saying apples and oranges are the same because they’re both fruits.Sure, women and people that identify […]

The Broken Gaming Media: A Case Study in Bad Journalism

In a world where clout is currency and "journalistic integrity" is apparently an endangered species, we have another classic case of the gaming media tripping over its own hypocrisy. The drama began when SmashJT and industry veteran Mark Kern (aka Grummz) broke the story on smashjt.com about the departure of Corinne Busche, director of Dragon Age: The Veilguard, from BioWare and EA after the game’s spectacular failure. But instead of a straightforward acknowledgment of their work, the story quickly spiraled into a tangled web of misattribution, gatekeeping, and self-serving "reporting." Breaking News or Breaking Bad? SmashJT posted the original scoop (backed by credible sources) and provided an in-depth breakdown of the fallout at BioWare. Kern added further legitimacy by sharing his insights, yet hours later, Jeff Grubb of GiantBomb fame-swooped in with a tweet saying, "Corinne Busche, director of Dragon […]

Marvel Rivals: The Formula Western Games Can’t Understand

Marvel Rivals is the Heroic Game Changer we Needed Marvel Rivals has smashed onto the gaming scene like Hulk through a wall, leaving a trail of broken records and starstruck players. Yet, despite its undeniable success, there’s a weird undercurrent of criticism coming from legacy gaming media and the "modern" crowd of gamers that....no one's really surprised at anymore. They’re trying to compare it to other hero shooters like Overwatch or nitpick every design choice as if it’s the end of gaming civilization, when in the end - it's just a good game made for people that actually enjoy gaming. Bananas and blasphemy. Let’s cut through the noise. Marvel Rivals isn’t just a hero shooter—it’s a masterclass in how to balance great characters, creative design, and gameplay without pandering to tired ideologies or virtue signaling. It’s also a big, juicy […]
