Well hopefully there will be further entries in Heroine's Quest and QFI. Both games have endings that suggest the possibility for at least one sequel.

Uh... they've released two demos and are keeping us updated on their progress.

I'd hardly call that "nothing to show for it".

I waslooking forward to this until I saw Corey Cole compare criticism of Anita Sarkeesian to rape, slavery and genocide. That's right. He thinks criticizing that lady is just as bad as those things.

I will not be supporting anything he is involved with after that.

Considering the nature of some of the "criticisms" directed at her, I can definitely believe him.

I don't agree with her on a lot of things, but man I have never seen so many violent threats, games devoted to virtually beating her face in, and vile slander directed at a woman before.

Violent threats and all that is no the same as, say, what happened to the jews in Auswich. Not by a long shot.

And while I do agree with her on many points, she has been caught telling downright lies plenty too.Threatening her and all that, is of course, wrong.

All the same, I have far more respect for a man who has been making games since before I was born (and making good games at that) than someone who is a one-issue gamer.

What's really absurd is using the word "criticism" to describe comments made towards that woman. "Criticism" is a mild term for constructively pointing out faults. Comments made towards that woman are known as "threats" or "attacks." That is much worse. In fact, I'm pretty sure rape, slavery, and genocide are all a few of the many things men have threatened to do to her. So, aside from the fact that there's a difference between making threats and acting on them, I can't see where you are coming from.

Such comments from Corey Cole have nothing to do with the quality of his games anyway.

No in this case it was actually criticism of her credibility. It was not about attacks or threats she had gotten from the person in question. He had done nothing like that. That is what Cole compared to rape, slavery and genocide.


Of course I agree that threatening her for her views and opinions is way out there and not acceptable in any way. But it still doesn't come close, in any way, to what the nazis did to the jews during WWII.

He made the last QFG game 20 years ago. Nothing since then except for some casino game.

But yeah. the QFG series kicked ass for sure.

Except that's not what he said, if this archive is to be believed. He stated that he looked at the past projects and comments of Jordan Owen and thought the Mr. Owen generally promoted ideas that he found 'as hateful as rape, slavery, genocide, and... well, you get the idea." Mr. Cole's usage of hyperbole in that post isn't what I would have used to describe Mr. Owen's work, but I can understand his disgust with the man after the most cursory of google searches and viewing the trailer for 'The Sarkeesian Effect' (which he namedrops in that post). This wasn't exactly out of nowhere, given that Mr. Cole had been contacted by Mr. Owen about being filmed for a documentary; Cole's vetting process is what resulted in him stumbling across Mr. Owen's previous work and in turn making that post.
Cool. As much as I was paranoid when I heard about the new kickstarter, it's nice to know that progress is being made. Looking forward to seeing more of the Cole's work.
