To Senior Writer: Ashley Cooper
If you really hate "cis white men" so much then you're about to hate us a lot more when we don't buy this trash.

Removed from wishlist and suggestions.

Go Woke, Go Broke.

I have just learned about this individual and their views of my race/sex/orientation. I am deeply appalled that a company would hire someone with such hateful views. I was very much looking forward to this game. I however cannot support such views and will not be purchasing this game.

Same I didn't care about the other stuff (not a big Warhammer fan) but an individual with Ashley's views belongs in a mental asylum, not a game development team. I cannot support a company that has employees like that on staff.

2/4 of her tweets were clearly jokes, if you fail to see that thats on you.

The HL tweet tho I do agree the whole situation was overblown.
I dont like JKR, but no one should take out their hate for her on anyone else just cuz they play a game based on books she wrote.


but man how come everyone is angry now of all times, all that stuff had been out for a long time.

just admit you are only angry cuz others told you to be angry about it and move on

Amazon threatening GW if they didn't include female Space Marines was supposed to be the last straw, and then I find out that GW fought back HARD against it, and the female custodes was a compromise to save their company. I thought I could look forward to this game but having seen the tweets from its writer, I sadly too have to remove it from my wishlist.

Will watch the walk-throughs on YT to compensate.

Ashley Cooper doesn't work at Saber Interactive. Whatever grifter you guys got your information from left out that she's no longer employed there as of 2023.

Deception through deflection is a form of lying. By bringing up his employment status, you attempted to paint a picture that he had nothing to do with the project.
Well most of the threads I've seen here are calling for Ashley to be fired, so sue me for making assumptions about what you wanted.

But I should have known you would try to twist what I said to make me into a bad actor, considering. Don't worry, I won't be bothering you again. Blocked, and I'm out of here.

Well you should have responded to those threads instead of mine.

Either way, I have zero tolerance for illiterate people.

Ashley was originally a male's name, actually. First noticed in 1800s England. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashley_(given_name)

Ashley Young and Ashley Ambrose are some professional athletes that first come to mind for me for dudes you never wanna tell have a girl's name.

Even if the tweets were a joke the reverse would be accepted by people like Ashley. Further more if a White guy made such joke tweets about gay people he would be fired and people like Ashley would be harassing him non stop. I don't mind offensive jokes, but what I do mind is hypocrisy.

But looking at her LinkedIn profile she stopped working with Saber like 2 years ago, and seeing that SM2 got 'delayed' its prolly because of this, folks in the studio prolly didn't like what she wrote so she got fired or something.

But yeah don't pre-order games, I would just wait and see if SM2 gonna be good or not based on independent reviewers like SkillUp

try to say only just 1% of what he said about whites to blacks/asians and you will already be in jail and banned from everywhere

but since it's on whites then it's OK


Exactly the same scenario as Madeleine Roux from Blizzard
