Factorio Thread

What cracks me up is that there's barely any ammunition against the Factorio guy, if he'd straight up said "In my humble opinion, trans women will NEVER be women" then you know what, I'd kinda understand the seethe but instead all he did was link to a programmer in a video that said something like that.

The whole thing feels almost manufactured in how based it makes the developers look when a bunch of seriously mentally ill people start logic like that Super Smash bros schizoposter.
 
I believe it would be in the Factorio dev's best interest to contact Steam directly to get some jannies in their Steam reviews and discussions. iirc Heartbeat devs had to do this as well, which is why a chunk of reviews were thrown into the trash fire:

It also makes Steam jannies hone in on these games more. They're more responsive to reporting off-topic reviews and promptly taking out the trash.

Edit: Though looking at Factorio's overwhelmingly positive reviews, they'll do just fine.
 
cuck/cuckold works because it's a real word that describes a real thing which is inherently humiliating, its use as an insult goes back hundreds of years, and similar insults exist across many different languages and cultures

chud on the other hand is entirely artificial, it comes from an 80s horror movie ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.H.U.D. ) and doesn't have any meaning or history beyond that
And the dicotomy is a good reminder that these people lack a frame of reference for anything beyond mass media. Not even particularly good mass media I should note. I only know what a chud is because I saw a box for the movie at an FYE

I wouldn't do anything if I were Factorio's devs. The troons are getting btfo, and they're getting an unimaginable amount of free advertisement.

Him not bowing down to the tranny mob along with all of the political nonsense they support makes them angrier than anything else in the world. It doesn't matter if he didn't commit any other sins to their beautiful skirt spinniness. He is already a traitor. They will never forget that.

I don't know if they're doing that already but I had to scroll far down to find any seething troons and most of the anti-review-bombing reviews are just laughing about redditors.
The inly reason I know what a chud is is because I saw the box in an FYE a long-ass time ago.
I know about it because it had a really good actor in it.

Gotta say, this situation isn't completely clean. Kovarex's initial reaction could've been better, and his use of the official twitter to dunk on others is not the best look.
Still, it's one dev saying something brash in response to a post in one community. He doesn't even hold openly "problematic" opinions, is this the new standard for causing controversy?

Regardless, sticking it to oversensitive faggots who can't even tolerate a glimpse of bad takes is harsh, but necessary. This mentality must be diked in and starved as the virus it is.
Of course transphobia matters now, some sneedposting later & the dev is apparently profiting from alphabet bigotry.

EDIT: in case it wasn't obvious, that last sentence is sarcastic.

Come to think of it, we're fresh off the tide of troons getting psychopathically mad over the creator of Five Nights at Freddy's silently donating to Republicans, something some lunatic went way out of his way to discover in order to try and make a name for himself, and now we've got this shit. Two very popular games where their developers are standing up to the perpetually angry self-destructive megalomaniacs that dominate Reddit. And an E3 that was dominated by soyboy and troon discussion.

Keep it up, trannies.

where the fuck have you been
 
Valve basically own PC gaming. Even with a coordinated push from the media it would be very hard to change that. Epic games failed at it. EA failed at it. Ubisoft failed too. The only real competition is non-client based stores that are DRM free.
And don’t forget, they own it because they put business, not politics, first.

People feel comfortable dumping thousands of dollars into Steam because they trust Valve. That kind of trust takes years to build up, but can be lost in an instant. If Valve started doing dumb shit, you can bet you’d see a surge of video game piracy - not because people are doing it to own the SJW’s, but because they no longer trust Valve to continue providing unrestricted, indefinite access to the games you’ve purchased.

His crime wasn't the original post, it was telling trannies to get fucked and that he didn't care.
 
the game itself is raw autism in its purest form

the people screeching about it are autism in its corrupted, deviant form
I downloaded the game after the drama and I seriously thought it was autistic as hell. It is about managing resources and product lines, and of course you can build trains.

I played 40 minutes and got really bored.

The game is autism in digital form, much like minecraft but with a top down view.

I'd agree in general but I'd make an exception for these cunts. You really don't want these people in your fandom. They drive away the vastly larger number of normies, not just hardcore redpill types. But frankly these apes would chimp out even if he'd just politely said no to their bullshit.

So while it would probably be more "professional" not to interact with them at all and just ignore them while they cope, seethe and dilate, if you are going to bother interacting with them you might as well get some fun out of it, especially if you are in some Eastern bloc country that could not give one single shit about American troons and dangerhairs.
 
Holy fucking shit it seems that being a tranny makes you an automatic lolcow by default. Like, there's a FUCK TON of threads on here with at least one tranny involved.
trannies believe they can change an inherent biological reality by simply believing it, and forcing others to believe it as well. Most of them are mental because of this alone.
