Edit: Sorry, didn't realize this was the meme thread.
If you want to continue this. let's do it somewhere else.




That's not my claim.
Feel free to address my claims.



I'm not claiming it did, nor was I presenting evidence corroborating such claim.

I was however responding to a specific post making certain allegations.

I explained why Diversity quotas and the rational interest of wanting to hire the best possible people for the job can be incompatible.



Which company in the last few decades set out to hire whites only?

Again, if you view the world through the lens of Diversity then you'll expect that the top candidates throughout the years will increasingly, deterministically, sample the population at large. Yet all sorts of justifications could explain the disparity. If a certain demographic seems to fare above average in STEM, for whatever reason, so what? Why would you not want the top people? So your competition can hire them?

If they're all black, hire them. If they're all women in their forties with two kids, hire them as well. If they're white, so be it. If one is white, two are blacks and five are elderly women, go for it.

This attack on meritocracy is insidious.

Additionally, the proclaimed need for diversity seems to occupy a very narrow band. Race, gender and sexual orientation are all kosher. But diversity that matters the most, of thought, of worldview, nah, that is deemed an instance of Whataboutism.



You're suggesting Microsoft has been hiring whites only?
That'd be hilarious.



It's not my conjecture, so you take it up with someone else.

It's called unconscious bias for a reason.

I'm not attacking meritocracy at all. I'm for hiring the best people. I'm saying there's no evidence that this hasn't been done here and yet lots of people in this thread are claiming that the game is poor due to diversity hiring. That's ludicrous.

Yes, please take the copious amounts of evidence for unconscious bias and post it somewhere else, where it won't disturb a thread dedicated to world peace though laughter.

In case you don't have any specific evidence, don't worry.
Just keep on asserting.
I'm out.

I'm the one claiming no evidence. Not you. People claimed that it was diversity hiring the caused a poor game. I'm just rebuking that.

Don't revise history like your hero does.

So I have been reading some excuses and wait for the final version (cause apparently Xbox fans are all about waiting for something else, constantly).

Yo... this was the big show. This was the time to make an impact. This should have been vetted and polished and this is what we got.

Like who said, "Nah that's fine. That shows off our game amazing"

Yeah either they didn't review what they were putting out there or... someone thought this whole clip was a wow moment. And it was a wow moment, just not in the way they wanted.
