PirateSoftware has started a gamedev QnA stream just now. Talking about his moist hair.

In this stream he does show some of the (very minor) edits he's doing to the Minecraft plugin code, but nothing impressive, mind you.
He seems to struggle with basic concepts, like taking 20 minutes to figure out why a multiplication of some random object with a double wasn't accepted as valid code (type mismatch, the compiler error even said as much).

Doubt this is good practice.

He actually didn't even write that part, it's like that in the original code, he was probably looking for a particular constant to use.
I do think it looks pretty bad from a maintainability standpoint, he could have formatted those long lines such as (there's also automatic formatters that do this for you).

            CRITICAL_STRIKE_CHANCE = new DoubleStat("CRITICAL_STRIKE_CHANCE",
                    Material.NETHER_STAR,
                    "Critical Strike Chance",
                    new String[] {
                        "Critical Strikes deal more damage.",
                        "In % chance."
                    },
                    new String[] {
                        "!miscellaneous",
                        "!block",
                        "all"
                    }),

                CRITICAL_STRIKE_POWER = new DoubleStat("CRITICAL_STRIKE_POWER",
                    Material.NETHER_STAR,
                    "Critical Strike Power",
                    new String[] {
                        "The extra damage weapon crits deals.",
                        "(Stacks with default value)",
                        "In %."
                    },
                    new String[] {
                        "!miscellaneous",
                        "!block",
                        "all"
                    }),

The way the guy has it formatted also makes it harder to see changes in a git diff/patch, because if someone fixes a typo, you'll see the whole line changed instead of just that part.

 

[I mean I'm just saying]

Flying in to drop off some quick ferret clips from today's stream.

Ferret emergency with handy-dandy whiteboard demonstration:

A quick little clip showing off a literally retarded ferret that happened right after:

He goes into it again a couple hours later with another unique neato mspaint boxes explanation on the same topic:

I'll leave the breakdown to someone more knowledgeable than I am on these topics.

 

[Ted's Cabin]

I don't know vet care prices in the US, but this seems excessive? Can someone corroborate if this is reasonable?

Ferrets are expensive, he probably took it to an emergency 24/7 vet, and two ferrets is twice the price. Here's a ferret adoption form. The very first thing they warn you about is that these animals like to get injured and cost a lot of money. Jason really should know better if he wants to do ferret shelter roleplaying alongside his hacker LARP.

Edit:
You also really don't want to have to bring your exotic pets to a vet unless they're actively dying. Joseph Carter, another youtuber, took his mink to a vet to treat worms and it almost died of a medical overdose. The mink had seizures and was left with permanent brain damage.

If someone could do a screenshot of some of his game's worse code, then add a shot of him with a degree on it like that yandre sim dev one, the Alex Mahn comparison would be complete.

Jason's own stupidity and resentment over the SKG movement soured the few good will he had and now people are actively looking at him and his never to be finished game, so expect more pages on this twat.

Most people don't care what you do until you start to piss them off. Be it by becoming annoying, having a bad opinion you double down on and are rude to everyone about, or not finishing your games,
If you go through life not being an asshole to people you tend to be less likely a lolcow? I still think there are some lolcows people look at cause they're weird, but assholes smell like shit and attract all the flies.

Being an asshole just adds to the list of people looking to fuck your life up and things that can go wrong. If Jason wasn't a hypocrite or furry, what would there be to mark him as a lolcow?

A number of the stop killing games mob realised how futile it was and decided to spend their time doing something worthwhile, like hatewatching and investigating JSON.

 

[Burnt Effigy]

The furry part is minor, plenty of people out there are furries, but so unremarkable that they wouldn't be lolcows, furry or not, it wouldn't change much for Jason.

As for him not being a hypocrite, well, it depends which link in the hypocritical chain you break, as Jason's cowdom is a culmination of many factors:
1. Jason is a nepobaby, he never had to struggle to find a good position, and thus has a skewed view of the difficulty of the game industry, this taints all of his future views, without this, it's likely he would have more nuanced takes
2. Because of this, and encountering little hardship (no Jason, having lost shit because you were a retard and getting the fix on a golden platter is not "struggling"), he has a planet sized ego, and he thinks he's hot shit at everything he does
3. Because of this, he thinks that video game development is trivial and everybody can do it easily (despite him having a team of multiple people and having worked on Heartbound for close to a decade), and anything else he tries, he's immediately an expert (despite making trivial mistakes, like writing shit code, not bolting down everything for his ferrets, only using a single thermometer in a complex cage, letting the ferret shit and piss up a carpet, etc)
4. Because of this, he shares his knowledge to satisfy his benevolent narcissist persona, which gets rewarded because he gets tons of views from brain rotten 8 year old and older retards that don't know shit about programming
5. Because of this validation, he thinks he's an actual authority on everything he tries, and became a soft tyrant, as in, he can say anything, and people will follow, and he accepts zero pushback.
6. Because of this, and in combination with his lack of knowledge, and his position as a publisher, he most likely did not expect anybody to push back on his views of SKG.
7. When people did that, instead of thinking and bringing forward actual arguments, he doubles down on his position by repeating the same bullshit arguments, and, when pushed again, he does the exact same thing. Finally, when he had too much, instead of conceding or discussing, he straight up shuts down any discussion of it, and refuses to elaborate.

SKG was accidentally the perfect poison pill for Jason, it's trivial from his point of view to just make an instant conclusion, and he genuinely did not expect the public to disagree with his views.
Since he's never had to properly argue a position, anytime he's pushed to do it, the real Jason comes out.

Break anything in this chain, and he probably wouldn't have been promoted to lolcow.

 

[ADHD Mate]

He’s smart enough to know that their is but he’s at liberty to drag his feet and live off his pay-pigs instead of spending the time with re-coding his old work.

I see, you have not seen global storyline array that uses integers as state of story.
His skills are Junior level at most. Heartbound is coded like he had seen Yandere Sim memes and decided "ah yes swiches over if/else! I am now master programmer".

I jumped around his "dev stream", all he did was small refactor while being confused by simple type mismatches.
Also his spering about getDamage() returning metadata instead of numeric value speaks a lot about his general inexperience.
It could be named better, but grouping all info about damage into damage metadata is generally not that bad of an idea.

[3:50] "So if you wonder how it works..." immediately stops explaining how it works, and gives vague mention that it used to work in previous update
Bro probably has no idea what this function call do. Hilarious.
I don't think he did anything of value during entire stream.

Jason really undermines his reaction to the SKG campaign, it's not just that you disagreed with Ross and the Internet overblown the conflict, you literally attacked his character by calling Ross disgusting, and had the audacity to silence him, that's why people were upset

Had to make an account for this. As far as i can tell this is worse than it seems.
I looked at

https://github.com/destial/mythiclib/blob/master/mythiclib-plugin/src/main/java/io/lumine/mythic/lib/api/event/PlayerAttackEvent.java

and

https://gitlab.com/phoenix-dvpmt/mythiclib/-/blob/master/mythiclib-plugin/src/main/java/io/lumine/mythic/lib/api/event/PlayerAttackEvent.java?ref_type=heads

And both of these versions of the lib he is using don't have the horrible function that returns DamageMetadata which forces him to use the stupid event.getDamage().getDamage()
So it seems like that extremely stupid function was added by him or his team.

He has the audacity to attack someone with a valid point, WHILE, he is also in charge of publishing a live service game. It's not just personal, it's business, but he refuses to admit that his bread and butter are being fucked with because he knows his fanbase will roast him for being a giant fucking hypocrite.

Also, responding to tweets by people @'ing you implies you don't have anything better to do, you fucking retard.

No chemical on this planet will ever fix ferret piss carpets. Jason is a retard

>Runs free game jams for tens of thousands to help get them on their feet in the indie scene
>The one that runs a discord of free information for nearly 200,000 people
I noticed that none of those things require any actual work to do. It's just getting other people together and taking credit for hosting it. Also taking credit for a shitty discord server? If you want to go that route there are literally 10s of thousands of other better places for people to learn whatever it is they talk about in there. You aren't contributing anything to programming Jason you are running a shitcord.

This feels A lot like the shit that Mr. Beast would do when people would call him out before the Chris Tyson stuff. "oh I'm untouchable since I run shitty game shows. That meansa my retarded takes about DRM are perfect in every way and if you disagree YOU are the industry shill" KYS shill

>shit pay
You were a QA tester and everyone hated you for your retarded "social engineering". It's no wonder you quit to pursue a life of not working on games.

>calls out the industry every time it trashes workers, players, or games in general
not sure how true this one is but wouldn't that make you a hypocrite? For all these call outs you seem to employ a lot of the same tactics that everyone hates these companies for. (striking innocent videos over salt)

>I have more work to do
No you don't

THIS VIDEO WAS FALSELY COPYRIGHT STRIKED. Marking the 5th false privacy strike from Fagtree
This is a video review of Jason's magnum opus Heartbound. It contained "Maldavius Figtree" in it's title and I was unable to re-find this guy's channel or this video when I went to post this so I'm assuming he was terminated for this. He only had 50 subscribers at the time of uploading. So pour one out for this reviewer.

This video is a true and honest review of Heartbound as it is released today.
The TLDW of the review is.... (You should just watch the actual video this guy is based)
There are 3 finished chapters of the game. Chapter 1 is only 15 minutes long and contains no actual gameplay.

Chapters 2 and 3 are also very short and only contain one single gameplay fight.

Chapters 2 and 3 also contain an excruciating "job sequence" where you stamp letters for 10 or so minutes. The reviewer says he nearly gave up playing this pile of shit while on that segment.

The reviewer says the movement felt buggy and unpolished.

The reviewer says this game is a self insert of Jason.

The dialogue is Reddit tier cringe and is difficult to read through.

The severe lack of gameplay compounds the problmatic reddit dialogue since 90% of the game's 3 hour play time is reading the shitty dialogue. The reviewer describes it as a "walking simulator visual novel"

The game is woke. It has politics in it and the politics suck ass and distract from the reddit dialogue. In this segment where the reviewer talks about the politics he roasts the fuck out of Jason by calling him out for being a lefty "neutral" Twitch streamer.

The game's artstyle is reminiscent of furshit. It is impossible to ignore and reeks of degeneracy.

The game is ~3 hours to complete fully chapters 1 2 and 3. It has been available to buy for 10 dollars on steam since 2018 and will never be completed.

This is the ending of the game. A single slide shilling out all of Jason's socials and begging for money.

After the main review the reviewer spends the rest of it shitting on Jason and the normies.
Steam review from the video. There are around 50 more after this.

After this the reviewer covers what we did in the thread. The fake voice, the figtree stuff, and the stream shit.
Gross art from the video.

I could not for the life of me find his channel. I archived his video and I have the title REVIEW: HEARTBOUND - Maldavius Figtree's (Pirate Software, Thor) MAGNUM OPUS) but I think his channel got terminated after Jason privacy striked it.
I cannot wait for this insufferable retarded faggot to try this one someone with more than a 50 fucking subs. Fuck this guy. ARCHIVE EVERYTHING

SKG was one of the first times he showed how fragile his ego actually is and he is still running with the snide seething at SKG from positions where he gets no pushback. Many people disliked him from a hunch and they were proven right, too, mainly because of his faggy know it all presentation triggered bullshit alarms

The constant scrutiny of his catalog has given great milk, his ego has a chance of eventually crashing down once he fails to play the algorithm or loses favor

>in spite of playing gatcha games whose entire monetary value is dependent on people who are addicted to gambling

Daily reminder that Jason considers Genshin Impact a better open world game then Breath of The Wild.
