Oh yeah, I remember the article he made completely downplaying Alec's role in creating Night in the Woods. Incredibly slimy. The proof will be in his next game, though.

You'll have to tell me, I own 3 copies of Night in the Woods and I won't be playing it. If any indie Dev even has Quinn on their any of their social media I won't be buying it.

It's also pretty obvious when you play the game who is writing what. Anytime one of the characters went off on an anti-capitalist, anti-religous monologue it was Scott, Beth's writing is mostly hokey and stilted dialogue, but I do believe she did write most of the good stuff for Bea and Angus. So, I'll give her that. The mental illness and existential stuff was Alec. Alec also coded the game, made the music, most likely designed the color palette for the game.

Basically almost all the be stuff about it I loved was done by Alec with some good parts written by Beth.

Basically Scott is a more benign Phil Fish. His ego far outweigh his talents.

And considering this guy's work ethic he may not make anything else again and I'm more than fine with that.

She hasn't posted shit.

View attachment 932768

Oh boy, that's telling. To me that indicates that she has a judicial order to not delete tweets or otherwise use her account. She must be using her @primeape account now which isn't as famous as the UnburntWitch one. She's got to be dying from the lack of adoration from her fans (chum). The longer she'll be denied her worship and feeding the more she'll start to make mistakes.

Funnily enough, it's this comment that might fuck Scott over the most. Anyone who has any experience in games knows that 7 hour days is UNHEARD of. If he's bitching about working 7 hour days, there is no way anyone is going to want him on their team.

It's hard to say. I do know that several HR departments are really fucking scared right now, because they now realize that they've pushed this shit too far, and now that some of the devs are seeking medical treatment over shit that happens at work, there are tangible damages that the studio could be held liable for. This is the definition of being over a barrel. They can't go against SJWism because they've promoted it for so long and enabled these bullies, but at the same time they've created an extremely toxic work environment because of this.

My prediction is that some of the higher ups are going to axe entire HR departments and start bringing in people who don't have Gender Studies degrees. I know for a fact that several people above HR are fucking pissed because they realize what a huge mess this is, and that it's a disaster that was 100% created by HR. I'd estimate that we'll be seeing a lot less dangerhairs working at games studios within two years.

RE: Scott his claims of PTSD royally pissed off people that have it. Not to powerlevel, but that royally ticked me off with his claim of PTSD as I have it bad. Him whining about 7 hour days doesn't look good for him as your normal person works between 8-18 hours a day (depending upon profession). This will kill any future projects that he'll be involved in or hired into.

Sounds to me like individual lawsuits against company HR sounds appropriate. I know in the US that you can sue specific departments and people in those departments for violating workplace laws.

I hope that HR is axed and things return back to normal. I miss the old days of dev studios just putting out games that people liked without the politics and Marxist messaging.

It's the kind of job you get for a Zoe Quinn blowjob, what do you expect?

Yeah, good luck doxing me, Zoe. I used a throwaway email to set up this account, I'm behind 1400 proxies, AND I'm bouncing my internet signal off the moon. So, suck it, you cunt.

 

[AnOminous]

Anita Sarkeesian's last tweet was that snarky, "if you're feeling suicidal there are people you can talk to in the Diversity Lounge," post literally HOURS after Alec committed suicide. This was unbelievable, even for Anita. The good thing is that EVERY response to that tweet was crucifying her for it. They were all calling her a horrible person.

Anita has since shut the fuck up.

Makes sense, no reason not to scramble the passcode and delete it with how much of a liability it is to her rn unless she's forced

 

[RodgerDodger]

It's not the shitty behavior that I hope scares away any job opportunities. It's the "I CAN'T WORK 7 HOURS WITHOUT GETTING PTSD"
that I hope scares away people

These are all "Indie Game Developers" That means they were otherwise unemployable from the start. There are no further job opportunities to scare away. Even the McBurgers chains reject these sorts of losers.

He basically admits to backstabbing Alec when he was alive and trying to throw him out of the partnership.

Heart Machine is on white knight mode, deleting any Hyper Light Drifter steam discussions on their "narrative designer" Zoe Quinn bullying Alec Holowka to suicide. I went to the Hyper Light Drifter steam discussion to check if that one post discussing about the Alec/Zoe disaster. Turns out the Heart Machine devs deleted it.

He never replied to me with @yesthatanna's articles in his tweets defending Chelsea. It doesn't surprise me that they will be defending her up until they see how badly their game bombed. Nothing upsets customers more than a liar and that's someone deleting posts about fair criticism.

Without powerlevelling too much, I know at least six decent guys who I suspect of having PTSD from shit that happened at work, and I work for one of the bigger games studios (don't ask which one). You can't combine 20 hour days during crunch with the SJW/HR bullying and NOT do serious damage to people. There is literally a group of dangerhairs who spend at least 1/3 of their day walking around and looking for stuff to complain to HR about, and HR always immediately calls the wrongthinking person in for a meeting to give them a passive aggressive warning that their job is now on the line whenever the SJW bully squad "finds" something.

Sounds to me like individual lawsuits against company HR sounds appropriate. I know in the US that you can sue specific departments and people in those departments for violating workplace laws.

This is exactly what they're scared of. It's not only a huge PR nightmare if this shit ever goes public, but it's also massive lawsuit territory.

Only white women.

Aw, shit! Forgive me, Zoe! Just kidding, you can go fuck yourself.

.....

HOLY SHIT. Ethan Van Sciver is going OFF on Zoe right now. I love it. He's so mad.

 

[Vesperus]

IIRC he said future episodes would be as a comic, but take that with a pinch of salt unless I can source it.

OK, it was someone on reddit, citing a backer-only kickstarter update:

The last statement on NITW specifically was after cutting ties but before Alec's passing. They said they cancelled an epilogue game, but still "have an epilogue in them" and that it will be made in some (non-game) fashion at some point. They also talked about working on a Making-Of Art Book as well as the iOS port. While they haven't specifically said anything since his passing, we can probably assume this all still stands.

 

[MadPreacher1AD]

A self-destructive back-stab, then. NITW was well-received, and sold enough that they could probably have jumped from 'inde devs' to 'small game studio' for future episodes / new projects. Now he's heading back to struggling artist scared of 7 hour days. I hope it's miserable.

IIRC he said future episodes would be as a comic, but take that with a pinch of salt unless I can source it.

There's a slight problem with Scott and Bethany doing anything with NITW in that Alec has an equal share of the copyright if he didn't sign a contract that gave anything away. Anything that Scott wants to do with it must go through Alec's estate/family. If things soured between Alec's family and Scott/Bethany then there is nothing Scott/Bethany can do about it. They can only thrive off of the royalties of the game at that point.

Without powerlevelling too much, I know at least six decent guys who I suspect of having PTSD from shit that happened at work, and I work for one of the bigger games studios (don't ask which one). You can't combine 20 hour days during crunch with the SJW/HR bullying and NOT do serious damage to people.

I can see that since that is traumatic. What Scott endured wasn't traumatic in the slightest which is what people are ticked off about.

This is exactly what they're scared of. It's not only a huge PR nightmare if this shit ever goes public, but it's also massive lawsuit territory.

#MeToo

Here's hoping to a few brave souls coming forward with the lawsuits. I'd recommend that they do them individually over a class action since the payout is much larger due to no sharing. LOL

Yeah, I started reading that then stopped I could tell it was going to make me even more angry than I already was. I didn't want to go full MATI.

 

[SlimyCuntStain]

Says it all really. Alec 'barely did any work', and now that he's been ejected from the team, they've mysteriously lost their ability to create actual games.

 

[Gar For Archer]

If there's any justice there won't BE a next game. This should be a career-killer for Scott.
I've been in the industry for a number of years, and I'm pretty confident that most game devs know who did most of the work on NITW. I can also promise you that Scott's actions are making the rounds right now, and people are dumbfounded that he could pull this shit. This is why I'm focusing on going after Zoe and not Scott. Scott's already fucked, he just doesn't know it yet. This was the worst PR move he could have possibly made, and it's one that will NEVER go away. People in the industry will remember this for 20+ years.

And Scott, if you're reading this thread (you faggot piece of shit), I hope you invested your "winnings" wisely, because you are fucking DONE in the games industry.

To anyone who is reading this thread and considering working with Scott in the future: You're a fucking idiot if you go into business with this asshole. Pay close attention to what he did to Alec, because he will do the same to you.

One good thing to come out of this whole clusterfuck is that game devs all over NA have finally had it with Zoe and people like her. Zoe is not well liked, but before this she was only spoken about in hushed whispers because she has so many minions in various studios. Now there are plans being made to oust her cult members from our work environments, and documentation of their crybullying is being compiled so that we can take it to HR and get them fired. HR is now over a barrel because a couple of people have let them know that they are now seeking counselling over the Alec situation and the toxic environment created by these SJWs at work. If you ever want to see someone in HR shit their pants, just say the words "toxic work environment" to them.

This something you could keep us normies updated on? I’d love to hear about the silent but deadly fallout behind the scenes that likely won’t make the news.

 

[HTTP Error 404]

Don't forget about the other guy he swatted, and ended up getting the cops to flashbang the guy's dog to death. Chungus is a dog killer.

Man, that guy has had like 4 dogs he's owned flashbanged to death across 3 states. What horrible luck.

I'll do what I can. I have to be pretty cryptic about actual details for the time being, but if/when a major development happens I'll let you guys know.

Dogs are just snacks to him.

The most popular Zoe defense video I see is Vaush's at 26k

Ah, the wanna be Destiny horse fucker who hit on an underage girl and spends his video saying he doesn't know much about the Zoe drama but someone killing themselves is their own choice (In other news water is wet). Sure Zoe is real happy to have that guy standing up for her

Even people who should like Hambly don't, what makes you think normies listen to anything he has to say?

The like to dislike ratio and the fact that normies are the ones who get his stuff big to begin with. Hambly is kinda a punching bag, kinda hyperbolic but at the end of the day most people can't bring themselves to say they hate him, only that he can be cringe.

This is why I'm focusing on going after Zoe and not Scott. Scott's already fucked, he just doesn't know it yet. This was the worst PR move he could have possibly made, and it's one that will NEVER go away. People in the industry will remember this for 20+ years...

Now there are plans being made to oust her cult members from our work environments, and documentation of their crybullying is being compiled so that we can take it to HR and get them fired.

If you ever want to see someone in HR shit their pants, just say the words "toxic work environment" to them.

Ya know what, I take back what I said about the police stuff. I mean I still disagree, but tactically this is the closest thing you have to chemo. Police action (even if it goes no where) solidifies HR HAVING to take action. I didn't see this before and figured you were just MATI.

In the end I was being short sided because of the shock of what I saw from Scott. But to you Scott was ALWAYS like this, he just finally played the cards that will ruin him forever. I was seeing this as some sort of sudden new betrayal. Meanwhile I was less focused on Zoe because I have seen her get away with this before and everyone cover for her, but you are getting all this stuff to compile the HR file needed to show provable repeatable behavior that isn't tied to something like GamerGate that this all can be blamed on. With a fresh death and Zoes own words saying there are more people she wishes to "bury" it shows impending action they have to make a move on.

Bravo for not power leveling or showing your hand. I feel slightly bad for sperging on you, when in reality you were trying to get people to gather the evidence. Luckily people like me help cause you can always point to my posts and show how divided everyone was on taking police action.

This is exactly the type of justice I wanted. I look forward to the public twitter sperg outs once they lose their jobs.
