Note the scare quotes around "controversy." "Nontroversy" might be better diction, but the quotes should indicate I don't believe it's a real controversy. However, I was referencing the response, not the original comment. The one that you attribute to people being offended. It looks like another case of manufactured outrage to me, and maybe one of the worst I've seen in gaming. I was actually a little surprised to find out this actually traced back to one person who was utterly polite.Abyssal Dancer said:
I've learned to expect to be underwhelmed, but I think this may have been a new high watermark for "controversies." Probably not helped by the way gaming media inserted things into their reporting that didn't exist in the original argument.
