Giantbomb's been going downhill a while, so this likely won't end as well as they think it will.
Unsure whether to out my somehow unbanned pre-2k10 account or stay under the water and vie for an adminship
Quietly observe, and report in as the madness unfolds.
We always need more boots on the ground, and any additional nuggets of Autism you bring in are that much more worth it.
Weening doesn't help anything and will get you mocked, so do the cool thing and bring in more content.
Who the fuck is Tim Soret?
Game dev with arguably one of the best-looking game concepts at the last E3, The Last Night.
He essentially was making a game whose entire premise is based on utter stagnation brought about through a universal income system, and the protagonist seeks to upend it so creativity can flourish once again, though it'll mean fucking with the current order of things. It drew a lot of attention, mostly because it was a very different take on cyberpunk. One can compare the setting's premise to the likes of the Mouse Utopia experiment.
Anyway, between the idea of the game's plot basically going directly against the likes of Universal Income (which many regressive leftists view as a fucking panacea these days) and the fact that basically
all eyes were on this game due to how good it looked, the usual suspects began to REEEEEE in the middle distance. When it was discovered that Soret said that GG was a good thing for the industry though about 3 years ago, GAF went full witch hunt to back up Blowey Zoe and harassed the ever-loving fuck out of Tim Soret. As is the tradition, almost none of it was based on fact; he made one tweet three years ago and ergo had to be burned at the metaphorical stake.
The dude suffered undue harassment by these insufferable faggots for almost a month solely because Zoe Quinn initially took offense out of jealousy and GAF wanted to ruin his career because he dared voice support for GG at one point. GAF threw everything at the guy and the fact that it's burning right now means he's fucking
earned this minor victory.
