I actually feel bad for Jessica Chobot. Bioware called, and said, "Hey, would you like to be in ME3?" Well goodness, who WOULDN'T say okay? So she personally doesn't deserve a lot of the thoughtlessly cruel criticism. But the Diana Allers character was just a bad, bad idea, for resources, story, and dev time put into the character. A cutesy notion that somebody came up with, and yes, a pretty cynical PR calculation for the IGN connection. Could have all been done so much better with Emily Wong. Too much that was rushed. Ah, Bioware, before 2007, it was all so much different for you...
All that said, Jessica Chobot doesn't deserve any of the personal attacks. At least we can assume that she's wisely avoided these and any other ME3 forums.
This 100%
I keep hearing she's actually been insulting fans of the game calling them whiney and other names to degrade us. But I didn't care enough about her to look into it much futher. But if she did do it I say eye for an eye you poke the internet it will rage quit the life outta you. I'll probably forget about her completely by the time I've healed enough to play through the ME series again.
I cannot make myself feel sorry for someone who got to where they are because of this:


It's not purely her inclusion in the game but the fact she seems to have gotten where she has due to crap like this and now even BioWare seem to have fallen for it. Add that to the fact she's potentially added at the expense of a quality VA doing honest work and in the story a quality character like Emily Wong and there is your hate.
Including someone in the game? No problem. Including someone in the game who isn't necessarily a VA? Ok, I can deal with that. Including someone in the game who got where she is - and arguably in the game - because of the above? No, sorry, not ok with that.
There are plenty of women out there far more deserving, with integrity and a good work ethic honestly looking for work as a VA. To have someone like this included instead is just...gah - it just epitomizes modern society.
