Team Fortress 2 Community - A free-to-play dress up game for grownups, gameplay fully automated! Waiting to be mercy killed...

Is there a discussion of the qud dev on here? He posted an insane response on steam reviews.

https://steamcommunity.com/app/333640/discussions/0/3005549744946532986/

"only some of the devs are furry communists" and that is supposed to make anyone want to buy your game?

No clue, I just know the dude had an absolute melt down once SsethTzeentach made a video praising the game but also showing clips of him going onto their Discord server just to annoy them because of the unkillable furry OC. They went full fucking nuclear, locking the server down and mass banning people left and right because of the community that Sseth attracts (retards). I don't know if the dev/devs have any other online activity similar to his meltdown, but I don't think it would hurt to go looking.

Also if someone uses the phrase "bad faith argument" they're a fucking faggot.

Here is video in question.

Watch the Sseth video and you will get you answer. Also

What is it with autistic tranny retards and inserting their obese furry OC's into shit like this? Reminds me of that OC insert character in Caves of Qud that people couldn't kill.

And it all escalated from there.

I think we’ve gotten off topic here. Watched the video and just saw that the devs were fags and the game was kinda shit.

I'm happy that for every furry and troon that infests this game there's a fine individual like this.

I don't know what there really is to say currently, this is about the biggest tf2 adjacent thing in a while.

I mean there’s still lots to talk about. He haven’t even reached the brink of faggotry. Honestly this thread is best suited as a cringe Tf2 chat/artwork dump and making fun of the subreddit and lgbt/nigger activism in online gaming.

Why do you post that "there's no content" when you yourself fail to provide any? There is no need to post if there is nothing to talk about. Threads here have been worse.

Crossposting from the Virtual YouTubers thread, since I think this is relevant to the community:
TF2 YouTuber Sketchek appears to now be a VTuber under the major corporation Nijisanji, going by the name "Sonny Brisko".
He has nuked his entire catalog of videos, seemingly to try & cover his tracks:

Sonny Brisko's previous identity is most likely sketchek, a TF2 youtuber best known for disappearing in 2015 after being diagnosed with a terminal illness (video mirror), only to re-emerge in 2019 and confess he'd made the whole thing up (video mirror, post here).

All his videos where he speaks have been privated since this information came out.

He faked a terminal illness to get out of playing tf2 I believe. The tf2 community is extremely autistic when tf2-youtubers decide to up and quit on the game to explore different ventures (see: STAR_ and Muselk for examples).
Valve even had a dedication to him believing he actually died in the game for the Axtinguisher. That was later removed after this surfaced, I think all around Jungle Inferno's update?

I'm expecting Antis to start digging up this dead drama lmfao.

His entire channel is now void of videos. They were apparently still up even as of a few hours ago, so this is very recent. He also was still uploading videos as of about a week or so ago. And his Twitter is private as well.

I think we have a winner. Holy fucking shit.

Here is a playlist of a few of his super old deleted videos. There will likely be archives encompassing all of his newer & recent videos uploaded in the coming days/weeks/months, as the TF2 community is super autistic and someone probably has them all downloaded somewhere; we probably just have to give it some more time, since this development is so recent.

And as a TF2fag, I used to, and still do, follow this guy, & I remember the shitshow like it was yesterday. Here's some more videos/info/documentation about it.

TF2 Youtubers getting destroyed and VTubers failing spectacularly, all combined into one convenient package? I must be dreaming.

Remarkable. I remember how pissed everyone was at the gay little stunt he pulled back in 2015 (which was admittedly in poor taste and pretty retarded) and it’s awesome how now he literally can’t escape it because he blew the one chance to dip he had with a fake fucking death.

That and, yeah admittedly Tf2 fans are autistic shitlips and can’t handle a creator they enjoy quitting or switching content. They feel “personally betrayed” because someone didn’t like their favorite game anymore hahahahaha good shit.

Anyways I can’t wait to see what kind of spergery this results in, both on a corporate, personal, and community level. I can already see the twitlonger (and hear that shitcunt blowsblacks voice too) “we have no affiliation with this “sketchek”. What are you talking about? Who is this “sketchek”?”

I listened to the first minute of English audio on his debut stream and that's 100% sketchek. Bilibili has some videos, but not all. A few have their music changed as well. I think it's safe to say a chunk of them are now lost to the ether, what a fag move.

I doubt he deleted it, and he was big enough and his little stunt made enough waves that someone somewhere probably has a folder on their hard drive with every shitty little pyro trick shot montage he posted. Either way there isn’t a doubt in my mind that at least somewhere there exists an archive of his entire channel catalogue. Personally the only archive I have is an HD 60fps download of his shitty “I’m dying” video.

I decided to go autistic for this one. I tried to look for similar speech patterns with words in the video below. My conclusion: I'm undecided for now. Maybe there's similar speech patterns to make the connection but my brain started to go numb. Sketchek's scripted voice is way too jaded compared to Sonny going (likely) unscripted. It's suspicious that Sketchek decided to private everything now though.

Also here's the only unscripted clip I could find for now:

I think that his voice from this bit in his latest ULTRAKILL stream where he was reading some text sounds somewhat similar to the voice used in the scripted videos.

Spoiler: The news has now began to slowly spread outwards, with r/tf2, the Steam Forums, and some Twittertards noticing.

Spoiler: YouTube videos about it have begun to pop up as well.

The channel of the commenter above claiming to be one of Sketchek's former Twitch Moderators has this video up as well.

Edit:

Update to this:
Sketchek (Sonny Brisko) has seemingly unprivated his entire backlog of old videos at some point recently. They're all back. The only thing is that the comments on all of them are now disabled, probably to avoid people namedropping his activities as Sonny.

Just thought this was worth quickly documenting here.

 

[RedDelicious]

There's no way it isn't him. I'm certain he just wants to completely burn away his old brand, which is reasonable seeing as it's been tainted by the whole "faking your death" thing. Vtuber fans are somehow even more rabid than your average TF2 player so I can imagine he's trying to nip that conversation in the bud.
What a bizarre timeline of events. I still have a Dead Ringer named "Sketchek's Bequest" after his un-death 3 years ago.

I lol'd. This was a little bit after someone did this:

Either way there isn’t a doubt in my mind that at least somewhere there exists an archive of his entire channel catalogue. Personally the only archive I have is an HD 60fps download of his shitty “I’m dying” video.

he didn't delete them, just made them private. here's a link to one of his old videos that was still in my browsing history - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHsjBh_-kIc [archive] youtube specifically says that "This video is private", and not missing or deleted.
it's not much of a revelation, but it shows that sketchek hasn't burnt his past internet career entirely yet and may unprivate the videos once people move onto the next e-drama.
perhaps he'll try to cover this one up by saying he got hacked and was fighting for his channel back with youtubes lackluster support?

on archiving - it's possible that someone made local copies of all his videos, but sketchek was slowly becoming a more obscure channel by the day with only a dwindling group of loyal fans. out of that small fanbase, only about a dozen would have the instinct and knowledge of how to archive youtube content given that most tf2 channel viewers are jaded quake boomers or actual children.
if there is an archive out there, it's likely to be partial and missing many of the smaller and more insignificant videos.
