Internal Blizzard Memo Details Efforts To Hire Retain More Women Nathan Grayson 8/10/17 8:03pm Filed to: BLIZZARD 55.5K 22018 fyMe Blizzard is launching a "global diversity and inclusion initiative" aimed at raising the percentage of women and underrepresented minority groups in its workforce and improving the work environment for those groups, according to an internal company email recently received by Kotaku Only 21 percent of Blizzard employees are women, wrote company president Mike Morhaime in the email-which a Blizzard rep confirmed to me is real and "they leave our organization at a higher rate than men." These numbers, Morhaime writes, are consistent with the game industry at large, but Blizzard wants to improve on them. Morhaime wrote the company is launching a diversity effort that will first focus on women, but will expand later this year to encompass other "under- represented minority groupS, who make up 14 percent of Blizzard, according to the email. Morhaime wrote that while the company will not set "quotas" for hiring female job candidates, Blizzard is encouraging employees to refer more qualified women to open positions, and it's looking into ways to better recruit from women's groups, conf nd uni s with an initial focus orn more women leaders and a di new graduate hiring s." The company also plans to partner with organizations like Girls Who Code in hopes of bringing more women into game development and computer scienc The email s monthly meetings and advises on Blizzard similar council made up of women from"various levels" in the company, with the goal of helping the company's women and make Blizzard a more rewarding and enjoyable place for women to work." that Blizzard already has anLGBTQ council that off pI eaders "think through ideas to attract more The email also outlines other concrete steps that Blizzard plans to take to enhance inclusivene those whoidentify as women" including networking ns and mentoring groups fo r women across the company,' an annual "Women @ Blizzard" summit starting next year, and improved bia training for managers Recent vears hav like Overwatch, at events like BlizzCon, and in the wake of an incident where pro Hearthstone player Terrence Miller dealt with a flood of Twitch chat racism during a major event. Within its own workforce, Blizzard has seen recent success, more than doubling the number of women interns it recruited in the past year, according to VentureBeat. There have, however, been ups and downs, with Blizzard taking flack for things like a pose for Overwatch's Tracer (which the development team ended up changing after controversy) and the game's problems with toxicity, especially toward women.

His favorite toy is his ball tower and he enjoys watching Criminal Minds with his human mom.

Neku Reacts to Kotaku's The Worst Heroes In Video Games by Alex Walker

The Worst Heroes In Video Games Alex Walker Oct 11, 2018, 11:00am I am your friend So is Rhyme- Back off! No one's my friend. OW If we don't clear the mission before the time hits zero, we'll both be erased! Case in point: Neku, the worst thing about The World Ends With You. Fantastic game otherwise - and a good use-case for the Switch as a tablet - but good God, Neku is an unlikable brat. A pain in the arse right until the final chapter, Neku's s----- behaviour is genuinely aggravating. It gets a lot easier to deal with when more of TWEWY's pins and item system opens up.

Nathan Grayson is PISSED about Steam

In recent times, Valve has struggled to draw a line in terms of what's allowed on Steam. Controversy has raged over the removal of games wit... steamed kotaku.com 11:58 AM - 6 Jun 2018 70 Retweets 138 Likes nathan grayson@Vahn16-4 the language in here is mind-boggling. "it's about whether the store contains games within an entire range of controversial topics--politics, sexuality, racism, gender, violence, identity, and so on." those are all really different things! but ok let's equate sexuality and racism 9 50 nathan grayson@Vahn16-4 this is all just so exasperating. valve finally acknowledges that there are human ethos underlying steam, but then posits that this decision frees the platform of overriding influence when in fact it's just putting steam's levers in different hands austin walker @austin-walker Whatever categorical system gets put in place will STILL need Valve to arbitrate and make value judgements by way of tags applied/approved. And this post indicates no interest in making visible the ethos behind those judgments. Show this thread 24 nathan grayson@Vahn16-4 another thought: valve dedicates so much of this post to talking about how allowing a game onto steam doesn't constitute an expression of values or taking a "side." but the knowing creation of an all-is-permitted libertarian paradise ABSOLUTELY constitutes an expression of values nathan grayson@Vahn16 3h valve's value set--which will be expressed every time a school shooter game comes out or a blatantly racist game goes unopposed bc the mindset is basically normalized--is that some vague intention of openness matters more than the outcomes of that intention 8 nathan grayson@Vahn16 3h and it's not like these categories valve explicitly listed don't impact each other! if racists get to run free on steam, I imagine people will make even fewer games about identity than they already do. the space becomes too threatening for that kind of expression

Gaming Journalism of the Year 2016

Chris Suellentrop Glixel Also: New York Times, Contributor Previously: Kotaku Super Mario Run's Not-So-Super Gender Politics By CHRIS SUELLENTROP DEC. 22, 2016 Unfortunately, despite Nintendo's history and reputation, Super Mario Run is not a family-friendly game - or at least not one my wife and I will be letting our 6-year-old daughter play. The game is rife with stale, retrograde gender stereotypes - elements that were perhaps expected in 1985, when the first Super Mario Bros. was released in the United States, but that today are just embarrassing. Super Mario Run begins, as does almost every Super Mario title, with Princess Peach becoming a hostage who must be rescued by Mario. Just before her ritual kidnapping, Peach invites Mario to her castle and pledges to bake him a cake. Upon her rescue, she kisses Mario. The game also includes a second female character, Toadette, whose job is to wave a flag before and after a race, like a character from "Grease By failing to update Super Mario for a contemporary audience, Nintendo is lagging far behind the Walt Disney Co., one of its closest American analogues. Disney's film "Frozen” subverted and reinvigorated the fairy-tale princess movie; "The Force Awakens" gave us a female Jedi. Super Mario Run doesn't even trv In isolation, there's nothing wrong with princesses or baking. My daughters love those things, too. But Super Mario Run relegates its female characters to positions of near helplessness. Peach and Toadette become playable only after you complete certain tasks, which makes the women in the game feel like prizes. (To be fair, the same is true of a few male characters.) Worse should you then use Peach to defeat her kidnappei that neither Mario nor a kiss is waiting for her as a reward. r, Bowser, you'll discover The world would be a worse place if video game creators were judged only by whether they balanced their games with male and female protagonists. Some of 2016's best video games, including the interactive drama Firewatch and the disturbing Mario-inspired Inside, are largely about men and boys. Still, lots of girls and women play video games. There are more women over 30 who play video games than boys under 18 who play, according to the industry's lobbying arm, the Entertainment Software Association. A Pew Research Center survey published last year found that almost 60 percent of girls between the ages of 13 and 17 are gamers. Seeing people like yourself depicted as heroic on TV and in movies and video games can have a powerful effect on viewers and players. The actor and comedian Kumail Nanjiani, who was born in Pakistan, tweeted after watching "Rogue One," the new "Star Wars" movie, that he "started tearing up" after a scene in which "people who looked like me and dressed like my ple we Representation in interactive media may be even more important than it is in linear entertainment. In video games, players describe ourselves as the digital avatars we control on a screen. We say "I died," not "he died. This sense of identification gives video games an enormous capacity to create empathy for other people. There are video games in which you play as as replacement therapy, as the son of an alcoholic. But it also presents more conventional game designers with an opportunity to create games in which young girls, and not just young boys, actually become heroes themselves.
