he's been exposed as a fraud on everything else, how long until we learn that he really is bald and wears a wig on stream?

@Baldavius Dicktree

....I really had no other reason to ping you but I'll be damned if its not one of the best reasons to ping you.

But this might actually be true, this guy lies about so much

 

[Baldavius Dicktree]

Even if it's not true a wig narrative would be really funny to push just to hear him say on stream "I am not bald"

They're calling me a narcissist, they're swatting me, they're saying I'm bald

>I don't want to spoil it, if you can't solve it that's your problem bud. hope this helps.

Only the truly wise can see the brand new ARG clothes.

i mean if you look at his dad and if you google abit he seems to have siblings to inherit the first gene batch...

Good question. From a quick scan: current last step according to a wiki fandom.

Honestly I don't know if someone here already did somewhat of a dive into the thing, would be curious to know.
It's a bit tempting to look into but... the milk is so plentiful already... and this looks kinda boring

Just did a scrape through, these are REALLY shit ARG's too. Every puzzle I've seen has either been "Use an item in a specific place" or "Here's another clever encoding/substitution cipher" as if he'd just bookmarked the multidecoder with no further consideration. Its not a puzzle, its just rote repetition of "get data, use data". I never thought I'd say this about any developer, but YandereDev does a better job with mysteries than Thor.

It would be really funny to get a DSP style rant about how "unhinged the detractors are - they're claiming I'm bald!" as he feverously draws this.

 

[GarbanzoBeans]

This nigger really out here showing the entire section of Mald of Mold's video in his without any fucking commentary. God do I hate YongYea, keep reading out those tweets and giving your shitty easy-pleasing takes.

Dude came pretty close to being a lolcow himself after he got that gig voicing Kiryu. His voice is easily one of the best contenders for AI cloning. At the height of the Yakuza fandom revolting due to his casting, he released a "Kiryu VA does impressions". The kind of thing a good VA kinda gets pressured into AFTER the community has weighed in and voiced their love for the VA. Pretty fucking cringe IMO.

No, you don't get it, this masterpiece would nave totally succeeded and changed the gaming industry™ if not for *checks notes* Enter the Gungeon:

That is literally what the DEFCON badge challenges were.

Aside from the part where you had to talk to other attendees to get past the badge itself, after that it was all mighty boosh references, riddles and ROT13.

He's working on it, OK?

it's kind of funny that this faggot acts like doing his job is a bad thing. "It's all I do off stream anymore" like you should be doing? You're offering people a product you swore would be finished years ago and it's still not finished. You furry cunt

 

[ScurvyRat]

ARG's are a great idea.

It's especially great if you plan to have it before your game is actually done.

A little known GEM of a game named Marathon did this recently with their Alpha, worked out great for them.

Get your puzzle pieces ready.
This URL / shit is the exact same format for the defcon puzzles and the most interesting part here is that this whole """ARG""" does not even once give a fucking narrative or story-line respecting the investment. mald just does this to cultivate his gay little cult of self absorbent retards jerking him off. At the literal minimum of unfiction and ARGs you have a functional website and lore inside of it like "The Pendragon Archives" or an interactive website with a CLI like with "This House Has People In It" but here we just have an openly exposed and incomplete side jerk to an incomplete undertale knock off? It's like this faggot saw the taylor swift marketing shit or heared about the add an egg concept and ran full steam ahead but the worst part is that we all know he thinks this is actually genius. Like unironically he thinks this is the next cicada and that if he never finishes it then it will keep them always hooked. Also wasn't he saying that the project was cancelled? did he just say that to get sympathy and bitch fit to his polycule? seems about right. I fucking hope the unfiction community gets wind of this and starts ripping him to shreds about how lost media is a bad thing which is why they consider it traumatic in most works. Expanding a bit more on this there are functional unfiction games like Shipwrecked 64 that are complete and were created in significantly shorter timespans only using retro game aesthetics to then pull the rug out from under you that the 4:3 aspect ratio hides monsters in the side bars. I think it's funny that in a space overly filled with autistic gay furries that mald would be shunned for his shitty behaviour and incompetence.

Sorry that I have been inactive and lurking here. I have nothing I can add to the discussion about the code being dogshit without powerleveling but I will say that if you followed tutorials from youtube for 1 hour then you would be a better programmer than mald. Yanderedev negs this fucker. Why the fuck is cold fusion losing to the heat death of the universe? mald this is your fault.

Lol alright well done that nearly made me spit out my drink.

At least finding antireals shit in Marathon was a genuinely more interesting and involved search than Jasons ARG.

his game KILL THE MOON? which has a demo, and llittle else??

I want to point out the "feature" of "Development streamed live every Monday from 12pm-10pm PST on Twitch".

And also the grammar mistakes; it's "run-and-gun" not "run and gun", "the level's" not "the levels", "its" not "it's", "power-ups" not "powerups".

 

[>tfw no Asian gf]

ARGs being used for a videogame's publicity can work out just great if the people behind the game aren't retarded and are actually passionate about what they're doing, see the Portal ARG for instance, that worked out just fine for Valve and the community had tons of fun solving it.

imagine a universe where this Faggot made a good game and was actually liked. I too, cannot.

 

[Forkknifegaymer]

I noticed his claims that he was some hacker for the Department of Energy. Got me curious, the DoE hackers generally cannot identify themselves, not because of their work with nuclear power plants but because the DoE's work with nuclear weaponry. Being identified as a DoE asset in that regard sometimes is a life or death situation. American nuclear warhead research, maintenance, and removal from service is handled by them and their cyber security teams are the front line in their defense against foreign espionage. They do not usually contract out from what I understand, as the DoE uses a seperate clearance system than the rest of the gov (DOE clearances: Confidential - a clearance which is no longer used outside of DoE but used to be used by every branch/agency, Low - corresponds to Secret, and Q which corresponds to Top Secret but can be similar to TS/SCI with special access tags). Because of this the DoE will do all investigations in house. That is not to say there are no contractors, for instance the DoE leases facilities in cooperation with (vetted) private sector companies (Pacific Northwest National Laboratory for example).

To get to my point, his story about being tackled by a guard is what really hits my bullshit meter. If that ever happened they would lock down a facility. There is no fucking shot they tried to get this mouth breather into a facility to 'epig haks' it. That is not how agencies like the DoE would do things, and if word got around you were the retard that got decked by the guardsman then holy shit nobody would want to work with you. DoE facilities are all secure environments similar to SCIFs, having a bad social rep is literally a career ender. Also the whole 'shove a thumb drive into the computer' thing he describes is hilarious because the first thing that agency will do with IT devices is disable their ability to accept foreign storage devices (servers even have an alarm that blares when you try and the doors to the room mag lock. Takes a guard with a masterkey to unlock it). So his story is extra outlandish.

In short: maldavious figtree is a massive faggot and women do not have sex with him.

He rapes them to death. Jason "Thor" Hall rapes ferrets.

[GarbanzoBeans]

Yeah, deconfliction is a huge part of those types of engagements because if you do incite a security response, you're more likely to just get shot. Because of this, there are usually a lot of training wheels attached to any sort of physical engagement, and a lot of those things are simulated. Instead of weirdo-with-long-hair legitimately trying to sneak something in and getting shot, they make a proposal and then security lets them LARP their way in, set up their stuff and then see if the blue team finds whatever they set up.

Stories like that, in high-stakes settings like that, are usually a dead giveaway that the person likely warmed the bench for most of their career.
