Despite the fresh renaissance the fighting game genre has grown into over the last couple of years, the medium is still dominated by the superpowers that brought it to its knees during the late twentieth century: Capcom, Namco Bandai, SNK Playmore, etc. Now, however, a new challenger comes.
Skullgirls arrived on Xbox 360 & PlayStation 3 a decade ago today. While the series has stagnated the original has stood the test of time.
Development studio Future Club, made up in part of former Skullgirls de velopers, will work on all Season 1 Pass content for the game, it has been announced.
Lab Zero Games has been removed from indie fighting game Skullgirls as its developer on PC and console versions.
The dude was apparently a ass. But it is sort of sad to see that with that. Both creators of the IP will not have anything to do with anymore.
He gets painted in a very awful light and he might not be a perfect person but he really got the sh*t end of the stick here. He struggles in social situations because of his autism.
I wrote my comment below without even knowing he was autistic. Yep it all makes sense. Ugh and it makes me feel worse for him.
I think Ziamont is just socially awkward and I think he probably doesn't know where to draw the line when interacting with pretty girls. I could see how the girl he interacted with was offended (what do your parents think about you being a THOT?). Mike's a smart dude, but that's obviously offensive. I think he thought he was being flirty. Smart folks sometimes lack social skills. Based on this one specific incident it's really hard to say this was anything other than an uncomfortable conversation where Mike thought he was being flirty and the girl thought he was being a creep.
Now if you're going to talk about sex (like girl on girl BDSM) with a male (any hetero-male especially a stranger) the understanding has to be on your mind that you're broaching a very personal subject. So when Mike got too personal in response how mad can she really get? Then for her to blast this all over Twitter embarrassing him and essentially ruining his reputation, is pretty disgusting. The punishment ought to fit the crime I'd say. Other male devs are going to see this as a cautionary tale. He would be better off not responding at all to any member of the opposite sex who opens the conversation about a deeply personal subject like sex then pearl clutches by a deeply personal question in response. The right thing to do would be to privately address the subject with Ziamont right then and there. "I'm sorry but I find your questions deeply offensive. I don't like where this conversation is going at all." Is that so hard? Must his life and profession be destroyed over this awkward interaction? I find what she did vindictive and incredibly over the top mean spirited.
With that out of the way, we have some proof that he had this awkward conversation and we have some other lady saying he's made folks uncomfortable. What I don't like is how thin on proof this all is. Anyway that's my two cents. I think these ladies are looking for attention. I think Ziamont is probably unintentionally an ass. That shouldn't be a crime punishable by death or character assassination, but I guess it's 2020.
To hetero-male devs when a pretty girl you've never met starts talking about sex the very first second you meet her, shut it down. Don't respond. It's a trap. If you're leading a company that makes millions of dollars you have everything to lose and she has everything to gain.
It's ok, I try not to make fun of the mentally retarded. It's obvious you're a lazy, disgusting waste of life. LOLOLOL, ROFLCOPTER! So Sad! You could go on weight watchers or just stop drinking Soda. You don't have to be a fat ass your whole life.
You know I should go easy on you, it's probably really hard working the corner to score some crack for your whore mom. I'm sure you can't even walk straight once they finish with you.
How does it make you feel that I'm using you for entertainment? I guess you're used to being used. LOLOL.
Remember little Simp, when you hear funny sounds coming from behind the door, it just means momma is working. Roflcopter! LOLOLOLOL.
Knowing how angry this makes you brings me great joy. Keeping going!
You submitted this just one minute before I saw it. Bastard! :)
With a few more characters, bot training, and more game modes this game will rival cap com and narco in the fighting genre.
The online implementation is perfect! The only flaw is the lack of lobby support.
I like it a lot but sometime fighting the A.I. is hard as hell. I once faced off again Peacock and she just keep on sending a continuous stream of explosives my way. It took me forever to beat her and the last boss is even worse. Also does anyone know how to do the super moves for Peacock . Do you do a quarter circle forward twice and then press all three punch or kick buttons or do you do a quarter circle forward once and press all three punch or kick buttons twice?
i love this game , screw the casual games where you lose half your health with 1 special shot
