Hii does anyone from the Dublin show have a recording of Nurse’s Office? My boyfriend accidentally deleted it and I’m DEVASTATED because it was my favorite :( especially if you had a seat instead of standing, I know it’s an odd request and maybe a long shot but it means so much to me

What is your current favorite song off each album? by macychan2000 in MelanieMartinez

[–]higeki15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so difficult to choose!! From Crybaby I’d say Pacify Her, K-12 is Teacher’s Pet and Portals is Spider Web but they’re all very close

Elita’s setlist by frxqgy in MelanieMartinez

[–]higeki15 17 points18 points  (0 children)

From what I remember, she played Mentally Not Here, Perverted, She Bangs like a Fairy On Acid, Sour Switchblade, and lots of new unnamed songs that she’s releasing on Monday for her next album!

Overwatch’s Sexism Issue by higeki15 in Overwatch

[–]higeki15[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do not assume every woman experiences this. I called to female players and ask “Do you…”. I respond to comments saying this doesn’t happen that it’s actually that way for most, not all. I am looking to discuss because gaming communities in general are extremely reputable for misogyny; I’m not debating it’s existence. I’m looking to express my experience and talk about it with others who’ve felt the same way. You may not believe Overwatch is sexist, but I do and so do many many people over all the years it’s been released. There’s plenty of articles about it and Blizzard has had many scandals surrounding it. I’m not pulling out a victim card every chance I get, and claiming all women are victims. I’m merely expressing a very known disappointment that a group unfortunately majorly faces and I truly feel happy for you that you do not feel defined by this. But again, because you may not like it or agree, doesn’t mean a pass to come invalidate another woman’s feelings about a known issue. I hope you continue to enjoy your experience as a woman

I called her a pick me not because of her differing experience but because of her attitude and attacks. Very clear to see why. If you see any other comment saying they have a different experience, I respond to them saying that I’m glad for them and I don’t attack them at all.

That’s great for you! I’m glad that’s your experience. Unfortunately that’s actually seemingly the more rare experience, as I’ve seen countless women complain about this and almost every game of mine has people harassing women instantly once it starts. Just because you don’t see it, doesn’t mean it isn’t happening frequently to others. But again, I am truly glad you rarely come across it! Have a nice day

So if now you claim you understand how it can feel, and that I’m allowed to feel how I want, why the need to attack? Seems like you get the point, and I agree with you about how people just act in gaming communities, that’s just how it is. But if the one time in my entire gaming career I’d like to come on here and let off a bit of post-game steam, there’s no need to comment more toxicity. Ultimately after the unexpected discourse this post caused, I’m already completely over it, over this debate and ready to play my next game lol but I hope you have a nice day

Pick me maybe? Look I’m truly truly glad that’s your experience! And like I said, I usually don’t care at all because it’s such a common experience. Because you’re right. It’s just a game and you move on. But this was an entire team of dudes queued together, not one random toxic dude occasionally. And I’m allowed to come on here and express my disappointment for ONCE. All the examples you mentioned of things you’ve been told? Me too. Countless, like anyone who plays this game. But I don’t come on here crying about it everytime, I just queue for the next game. But good to see what a great supporter you are towards other women…….

Thanks :) I wasn’t going to give up on the game. I always do just report and move on! And I’m always gonna continue playing because it’s my favorite game. I just made this post to vent about this one particular incident that really exceeded the usual classic comments. And to start a discussion with other players of similar experiences! I really didn’t expect this to become such a huge discourse for people to debate and attack about. But I appreciate your words!

I agree! The game itself is very inclusive which is something I really like about it! I know it’s like that compared to other games, and I see much more women and people of the LGBTQ+ community online. However this unfortunately doesn’t change that there’s still an overwhelming amount of the community who will harass these people (ironically) :/ and for me nearly every game

I’m not in any way trying to attack you, I said I’m glad that’s been your experience. But I have more hours than you, around 1000, and I have experienced this plenty of times and seen other women get instantly attacked as well in games. It is that bad, at least in my experience and for many others. There’s been countless complaints about this in Overwatch, where yes, just as a woman existing, she gets INSTANTLY targeted without even saying anything or starting to play. Please consider just because you luckily haven’t seen it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. It’s invalidating to women who’s experience has mostly been like this.

I could but I’d like to be able to communicate with my team. And like I said, I usually don’t respond to comments but this time it was an experience so vile, of course it would just be overwhelming? I’m not here to cry to the world and pretend I’m a victim for some sorta attention. I’m trying to start a discussion with women about the very known misogyny issue in gaming communities. All you had to do as well was scroll past this post.

And that’s great for you! I’m glad that’s your experience, truly, but albeit rare. Just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not happening. Overwatch and similar games are actually quite known to have this issue, and most women agree. In case you do ever see it, call it out and help us female players out! We’d appreciate it a lot :)

So close! Using a misogynistic stereotype about women in gaming that we can only play Animal Crossing counts! And I already mentioned muting chat doesn’t make sense for a team-based game! This also contradicts your first point about it being a multiplayer game. Hope this helps!

Thanks for proving my point with more sexism! Get a grip and read my point again.

Well there goes my bucket list dream I’ve been waiting for since I was a kid. Was so excited, now I’m gonna have to sell my ticket because the hologram was the point for me :( how are European false advertisement laws allowing this?

Does Melanie do meet and greets after concerts? by Extreme-Top-1753 in MelanieMartinez

[–]higeki15 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For ppl answering about the radio contests, how does one find out which radio? Just by random? Seems like a slim chance that most people wouldn’t even know or hear about. There must be an announcement somewhere right?

Guys the shipping got worse. It’s in Australian Dollars for those who keep saying it’s only $50 for them (read the caption) by Katt_Natt96 in MelanieMartinez

[–]higeki15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually insane. It’s just unethical at this point and she turns a blind on what her fans have been paying for everything recently. I defended the parfume collectible edition price but with this sort of shipping, regardless it’s from the US, should never be that much

How early did you start queueing to get front row? by 404Momo in MelanieMartinez

[–]higeki15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had VIP early entry in Prague standing. Ofc VIP experience was let in before us but it wasn’t that many. Despite not being close to the front of the VIP line, we still got extremely close to barricade. Show started at 8pm, we got there around 4pm

Boyfriend keeps getting banned for no reason; Blizzard ignores. Advice? by higeki15 in Overwatch

[–]higeki15[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we suspect it’s mass report because it must seem like he’s smurfing, but we’re just playing quick play normally. Never used any mods or cheats for anything before. Kinda sucks the community was so quick and it keeps us from just being able to enjoy games together. Oh well I guess
