MINI-OP: STEAM REFUND CIBELE Leader 11/03/15 (Tue) 19:25:25 404442 No. 294578
Nina Freeman has finally launched a real-money game on Steam after her last two F2P abortions. While not a primary LW, she is known to suck up to Brianna Wu, Katherine Cross and gets shilled by them regularly.
Why tie up my funds in a shitty indie game I don't care about? Who?
Nina Freeman(@hentaiphd) has been lowering the quality of Steam and PC Gaming as a whole for a long time. how do you Do It? is a non-game of literally slamming barbie dolls together with less physics than a flash game, and Freshman Year is a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure with no Choosing or Adventure, where you go to a club and get groped by a dude after getting wasted and feel bad about yourself. ALL three of Freeman's games are "autobiographical," meaning she can't write for shit, has no ideas, and has been focused on or actually taking dick non-stop since age 10. She also speaks publicly on game design and feminine issues at functions like GDC occasionally as if she were qualified to, and is a writer for Fullbright for the upcoming Gone Home 'sequel' called Tacoma. She also spoke out very vocally against Steam Refunds in a number of feminist news outlets when they premiered, complaining that the policies would hurt indies that specialized in 'vignette' games, i.e. anything you can click through in under 5 minutes, despite not having any cash games on Steam at the time. She was clearly planning for the future.
Her game Cibele is currently $7.64 on Steam and on sale for the first day for 15%. If you haven't abused the Steam Refund policy in the past, please consider buying, running the title screen for 5 minutes, and Steam Refunding it.

>how do you Do It?
http://store.steampowered.com/app/353360/
>Freshman Year
http://store.steampowered.com/app/364450/
So what does this actually accomplish?
Refunding a game on Steam is a small dose of chemo for the industry that 'vignette' indieshit like Freeman desperately needs. It's also a dry-run for the inevitable Revolution 60 Steam launch, where we can see what kind of impact we have as an organized operation again. Also, there's no happenings going on right now.

how about instead of doing that, just not buy it
because hey
sjws bitch about games and shit they dont make, but they actually did go out and make one w/ this so if nothing else they should get that credit
of course when it fails to sell (and it will) we will laugh
but also there some girls who would be interested in this as a vicarious living thing dont hate the player hate the game yo
this really sounds like Personal Army shit imo
Leader 11/03/15 (Tue) 19:44:13 633ce0 No. 294585
I'm not buying this "game" period, even with the intention of refunding it after five or so minutes. It'll sell like shit and get plenty of refunds though.
Hell, look at the top Steam reviews, they're all shitting on it. There's even a pre-release review that shits on it.

my long-term, biggest fear from this is that whenever Revolution 60 actually releases on Steam, people buy it and gift it to others ironically, like Bad Rats. And Wu profits. :(
Leader 11/03/15 (Tue) 19:52:07 633ce0 No. 294590

The only reason that happens with Bad Rats is because it goes on sale for 30 cents or something. So that won't be the case with Rev60 since it'll most likely be more than $10.

I'm thinking it will most likely be around $15-$20 since the Patreon funding has been drying up for Wu each month. Even without that $10K one-time donation from Cliffy B she was still at $3,500/month. Now it is down to $2,750 and falling a bit more each month.

Nope. Rev60 was on Steam Greenlight until the forums turned into a giant flame war that was started by Wu. Votes were enough to approve the game to go on steam so it will still probably make a debut sometime next year.

Doing what the OP asks is 100% beneficial to the developer in every way, it has no possible way to cost them money and would likely let them play the victim for publicity or even get Valve to reject the refunds and give them money from people who would never buy the game.
She probably made the thread herself, so let this stand as the official preemptive callout of this false-flagging. In the unlikely event that the OP is sincere they should delete this thread.

You sound like a shill. Gamer gate is indifferent towards ms. Van valkenberg. Her actions against eron are reprehensible, and hopefully will set an important precedent in first ammendment and restraining order requirements going forward, but our concern is with objectivity and transparency with respect to the relationship of people who promote games and people who produce them. There is a comprehensive set of links out there that explain all of this and more… I'm a little confused, haven't you already read that? It's not hard to find.

Hopefully nobody. If anybody does though, it'll be such a small number that it'll be no different than some random people buying the game, genuinely realizing that it's crap after playing it and then getting refunds.
Regardless of what happens though, I'm sure Nina is going to go into overdrive with bitching about Steam refunds, complaining about gamers for not buying her game and then try to get victimbux. Hell, I'm sure the reason she put a pricetag on it instead of releasing it for free like her last game is an attempt to cry about how "oppressed" she is and then become a LW.
With this shit, Revolution 60 and so on, I wonder if SJW hipster indie devs are going to boycott Steam and then exclusively release their games on itch.io or something. Even funnier would be if itch.io or whoever advertised their service with "no refunds, so no shitlord gamers can hurt the indie devs!"

If by "lambasted" you mean memes and such, yeah. The whole Literally Who thing came from her argument (since she couldn't prove actual harassment ) that using her name in discussion anywhere on the internet was tantamount to abuse, which is why anons who use "Quinn" instead of "hambeast" or "cowtits" or "sausage fingers" etc and/or imply she was "targeted" by GG, tend to evoke the proverbial raised eyebrow.
