But, when I just watched the 10 Years of GOG.com video (which is really nice, btw, guys), I have to say I was a tad surprised to see just men featured on the video. (And just white men, at that).
Come on, GOG, there are women that work in the gaming industry and support you.
Surely, you could have found one to feature in the 10 Year Anniversary? And not be like half the folks in the gaming industry -- insistent it's a men only world. Because that's what that video makes it look like (and again, it's a nice video, bar for the absence of anyone not male :) )
Love you guys, don't buy my games anywhere else, so would have also liked to see at least one sole woman (or for that matter even a non-white guy) in your vid :)
Just a thought to keep in mind for the future!!!
And congrats on your 10th Anniversary. Love that you exist :)
As for the topic itself. I will be locking it as it's moving in a political realm but I will give you some insight that may clear things up for you.
The video project was worked on by multiple talented people both male and female, from different backgrounds and countries. The project was headed by a talented woman. The video features partners who work with us closely, be it content creators or publishers/Devs. Not everyone we reached out to had the time to make a video.
GOG/CD Red is made up for people from all different walks of life. It's quite naive to assume things based on a 5:40 video that features a handful of partners.
Additionally, I would request in future posts you do not levy a users race as means to slight or undermine them. This is not welcome here.
As I said before, the thread will now be locked. Your concerns have been heard, and I believe the answer should help clear up your assumptions.
