!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I'm just dumbfounded why anyone would be openly okay with video games becoming unplayable. He flat out said he was fine with it. And like... Why though?
Because technically it's a little extra work to make games playable after the end of life. It's so much easier to just dump it and run to the next thing. Like Game of Thrones season 8. But the extra work makes it a quality product. It gives it a legacy. Same reason it's a little extra work to add accessibility and pretty colors to my app. Sure my app would work without it but this shit should be an industry standard.
He didn’t open with that statement, he buried it into his video. A bootlicking coward (or possibly an industry plant, given he got the blizzard job thanks to his dad) who bans dissent and won’t actually engage in any dialogues with the people he’s fucking over
He's creating his own game. It's like a corporation saying "workers unions are bad".
I had read something about how he's faking work on the game, but admit I did not look into it.
Its not that complicated.
He's been saying he's been working on his game for uh... 7 years now.
When what he has actually, very obviously been doing, is twitch streaming 10 hours a day.
Its the 'Elon is magical multi tasking super genius' bit, no, no obviously not, he's lying, he just likes to be able to claim the identity of game dev because it allows him to act superior and authoritative as a commenter on video games.
Dude is a fraud.
Oh didn't know that. After looking into this guy I determined I better ignore him alltogether.
Exactly why I didn't look into it, lol.
