I wouldn't put it past Jim to side with Mald instead just to be a petty dick. I headed over to his
Bluesky to see if he's made even a cursory mention of the petitions, but all I found was Jim patting himself on the back for his own writing:

And whatever the fuck this is:

He also plugged his match with Kidd Bandit, of course, but the most significant consumer-lead push against planned obsolescence in the games industry we've ever seen? Crickets.
I wondered if maybe #StopKillingGames hadn't penetrated the Bluesky echo chamber but it seems the
topic is quite active, and SKG has an
official account too.
firstly, apparently ulysses 31 is cartoon slop like he shows clips of, so probably dude got a shirt that looked neat from a goodwill then a steampunk cosplay troon ran up to him saying "OMG WHATS YOUR FAVORITE SEASON". wowee.
jim is starting to get under my friggin skin and i'm a shit writer, but i AM/was back in the day a consoomer of vns. jimbo, 1., adhd is notably overdiagnosed and largely a nothingburger diagnosis to get kids that get bored by shitty or mentally abusive teachers on shit that gives them a actual uh oh burger. i think his version of it was a good bit of time ago now he said something like "ye ive adhd which makes me real VULNERABLE to gacha games". and i don't even want to know what your definition of "memory loss" is because it would really fucking tilt me but since you've already described it as not remembering play by plays from years ago, whoopsie, already tilted. date everything is a shitty meme game with google art copy paste at best, like a new generation hatoful boyfriend except less unique and funny.
now, if you want to say it's a video game, we have a bit less of a problem, because stuff like spec ops the line, to a degree max payne, even stuff like mass effect's existential problems that come up in 2 onward, are all exceptions and not the rule, which thank god because you don't need "i need a cigarette and to look at a noose" more than bing bing wahoo experiences. still though, you can't approach any mental shit half assed and you need to REALLY get some serious shit happening or else you just look like some combination of shit writer or poser, or considering you're explicitly going off your own problems, like you're aggrandizing your own baby problems. so if it's a video game and you kept your mouth shut i'm giving your ass at least a hard 4/10 but most likely lower. probably a 4 though for "well you tried and it's a shit meme game anyway and i'm sure the rest of the troon staff is as bad or worse"
but now, my niggruh jim, if we place date everything as a visual novel? ooooohhhh man. you done fucked up. you fucked up now. you have fucked up. you can not bring this baby shit to a vn. clannad is probably the most household title, and also the easiest to recommend to friends because i think the only ver of it that has any coom content was a region specific ver that was done out of obligation to the publisher and notably shit and nearly everybody prefers it without, anyway the devs have some seriously talented staff, id i remember correctly the lead was a pianist and also had a degree in psychology, so he transferred that into being able to emotionally manipulate the player extra good. i'd like to get into walls of text at how much of a disgrace stuff like date everything is to the medium, but to minimize shitting up, garbage like this cannot be beside your fate, kara no shoujo, cartagra, clannad, little busters, majikoi, toheart, white album, muv luv, etc. in a open market. even some damn good western stuff being made like being a dik(though bAd does have a good amount of goonery along with damn good plot and characters, may be a pro or con to the reader), summer's gone, and even katawa shoujo (though ks is free too lmfao) though katawa had several things that were particularly fuckin retarded to me plot wise, especially in the deaf girls route and her bipolar lesbo mega simp and shit ending and drama.
regardless, jim's a shit CHARACTER writer, though he can be funny and a entertainer on stage when he wants. he blatantly just self inserts. vampire survivors character must be a flamboyant troon because he is. vn character must have adhd and memory loss in particular because he does. you CAN use your traits or experiences, like say when you were little you had issues, were lonely, and treated toys with a degree of sentience like they were your friends. you don't just skinwalk a character with that, but you can transfer those feelings into something like gepetto in pinnochio or a toy story. mold and adapt lived experiences, corrupt them etc. his writing's just as lazy and politically locked as his content.
