The reality of it is that the tweet is referencing a return to Skyrim with a new re-release of Skyrim every year forever. Skyrim is the past, present, and future.

I remember mentioning it before, but it might have been in a different place. He tried it and then complained when viewership went down. The only reason his viewership hasn't gone down this time is because of his new game claims.
I used to watch him back then, good time waster. The more I think about his videos the more I realize they were schizophrenic

Tyler has a really bad habit of seeing a small snippet of code and losing his mind over a very small amount of it, because he doesn't really know or basics of not just programming but fundamentals of computing. I'm going to be once again going back to what I know about TF2 mods for my example.
Last summer he tanked the Open Fortress mod over their bot code through the use of comparing comment headers. Since I don't think the header was shown explicitly I've attached an example. There are slight variations in the code for different dates, files, and purposes but it's mostly the same layout.
The simplest way Tyler could have seen that the bots weren't even the same is a simple file comparison. This isn't even requiring how to read code, this is only requiring to see file changes in two files. Even Tyler couldn't handle this. Since I had found Tyler's bot code I decided to take the opening header of the bot code (NextBot.cpp) from Left 4 Dead and compare it to Tyler's file. The result is this.
The takeaway from all of this is that Tyler believes he's some gaming guru who can look at a very small snippet of game code and extrapolate massive claims out of it while at the same time failing at elementary programming skills. On top of what was said previously about how his journalism style is a walking PR nightmare and his mod team/the leak showing a lack of project development skills, this should show you Tyler doesn't even possess basic programmer or computing skills not just to work on a game but anything involving code. With the jumping to conclusions and inability to read code, I 'm not even sure if he can handle block programming.

I guess he's doing it for real. (archive link)
I'm not a journalist, says the self described journalist. I truly cannot wait to see how this blows up in his face.

The funniest thing about this saga would be for him to get canceled as a "gamergater" for trying to shame the gaming media with dumb stunts.

I think that might be one of the most self destructive things he could ever do, especially if it blows up
And one of the worst things his haters can do is spread it around as if it's true

He talks about being "thrown under the bus" as if others are harming him. Is he not able to process that nobody forced him to illegally grab Valve's half-completed work? Is he too stupid to realize that Valve wouldn't take kindly to him stealing their content? At best, he believed Valve would hire him on the spot for being able to wreck their announcements, rather than send their army of lawyers after him.

What a day it's been for Tyler.
Today he released his report on a Fallout: New Vegas mod dubbed "The Frontier". The general consensus seems to be that from a technical standpoint, it's pretty incredible - but the writing seems like it was written by Discord mods on more than one occasion.
So understandably, it's drawn some criticism.
Tyler, now having gone through the rebranding and thus no longer needing to be held to any kind of accountability, is confused as to how people would have complaints about a mod that he was given early access to by the game's director.
As you can see, he gives his audience a lot of credit (although in fairness he's had to deal with the Nu-TF2 fanbase for a few years, so I can sympathize (but then again he cultivated and explicitly pandered to that audience through his extremely biased content so maybe I shouldn't)).
In a series of follow-up tweets, Tyler gets mad, and proceeds to conflate sex as a story-telling device and sex as a writer's fetish insert.
He then, for some reason, shows what good writing actually looks like, thinking that The Frontier's writing is in any way comparable other than "they're talking about feet in an erotic manner".
But now we get to the pièce de résistance, where he defends this:
He then concludes his outburst by conflating sex and fetish-inserts once again, along with some self promotion.

I've heard about the backlash the mod was getting. As soon as Tyler announced his plans to make a video on it, I knew he was going to end up defending all the weird fetish stuff at some point. The fact that he's defending all the blatant and easy to find sex stuff in Frontier by going out of his way to find hidden remarks in New Vegas is suspicious. I get the feeling that he might share some of these fetishes or have some skeletons in his closet since he' seems to be offended. There was that grooming comment mentioned earlier in the thread that he deleted, maybe he's been diddling some high schoolers.

I'm doubtful that he's a groomer - he's already got a girlfriend and he's been with her since high school, I think.
I'm suspecting it's more that he was personally invested in The Frontier, and had a personal rapport with at least one member of the team. He'd see criticism against the mod as a criticism against them, and isn't quite smart enough to understand what people are criticizing. A now deleted tweet shows him saying "I'm so glad that Sex Bad", clearly sarcastically, implying that he thinks people are complaining that there is sexual content in the mod.
I don't think it's malicious. I think he's just insecure and a bit dim.

Having wasted about 20 hours on this mod and seeing shit like pics related makes it look to me like Tyler's being dishonest, especially that "i played it for 70 hours" part. Probably another case of him being personally involved with the team and trying to sweep up as the train crashes.

People have made claims that Tyler abuses Electra and this mod does have some domination/emotional manipulation stuff in it.
The video itself has a Nord VPN sponsorship on it. I don't know if they have a low tolerance or if they don't know much about Tyler, but I can tell that this video and Tyler's recent tweets are not a good look for Nord.

He's currently whining about the thread, multiple are linking it to him in the comments so it's obvious that he's lurking. Hi Tyler!

This thread is at only 10 pages despite being almost a year old and most of the replies are a variation of "well thats kind of dumb" and nothing more. Don't flatter yourself, Tyler.

Hi Tyler
I've heard multiple people in the Source community say they were keeping track of you because of your damaging fuckups. You've made a lot of mistakes, either take this as an opportunity to actually reflect and change or quit the internet before you further devolve into a lolcow. You still have some time before you become another laughingstock in the gaming community.

I'm sure he doesn't appreciate people linking to this thread in the comments of that tweet lel.

For God's sake, even Bethesda didn't go so far. (I hope so, because I couldn't force myself to play Fallout 4 for longer than 2 hours)
He is too boring to be a laughingstock, on purpose or not. Becoming a pariah is more likely.
