So did we ever find out what the deal with Austin leaving VICE was? I assumed he was going to announce a new job or something shortly after leaving but it doesn't look like that.

Until he finds something new, we won't know.

Realistically, VICE had far too many "Editor in Chief" positions when they collapsed inward and Austin was clearly one of the weakest and first to go.
 
I'm honestly surprised anyone who would get an award from one of these things would call out shit like this.
Dude's still going at it by the way.

I'd recommend anyone with a bone to pick against Waypoint style sites read these, he exposes and sources so much of their bullshit, it's a laugh riot/goldmine.
 
Gamejournos are cancelling Jason Rohrer despite fawning over him for years, basically because he's a libertarian.

Btw Castle Doctrine was literally the best game Jason ever made. It was so good that others have re-implemented the design in other games.

Patrick Klepek is the type of nigger who only liked the "idea" of Jason's games, never actually playing them. Why would he, they're actually built around game mechanics, not visual novels for woketards.

Jason makes all of his work public domain, while Patrick works for a megacorp. Jason is an obscure indie designer with 8k followers, Patrick has 167k followers, the majority of which are probably specifically following for his political hot takes. Patrick is a total hypocrite considering he fought against "GamerGate" for years on the basis that you shouldn't be talking about other people on the internet because it's harassment (or something). "Game designers aren't public figures!!!!"

I've said it before, I'll say it again.

If Klepeck doesn't turn out to be a sex offender at some point I'm going to be fucking stunned.
 
That would require a woman actually allowing him within 500 feet of her.

Maybe a blind woman.
He was married wasn't he?

I remember when 5 Guys/The Quinnspiracy happened, people speculated Patrick was one of the 5 guys and was cheating on his wife because he was doing a speaking tour with Zoe Quinn around the time.

Patrick Klepek had associations with Quinn prior to GG. He did puff pieces on her when he worked at Giant Bomb. He did speaking tours post-GG with Quinn. He was married during this whole time. No one's ever formally accused him of cheating, we'll probably never really know.

Keep in mind it was during these same series of interviews that he interviewed Jason Rohrer, another literally who indie-dev. Klepek has always been balls-deep in the indie-clique scene. People like Phil Fish and Rami Ismail, who should barely be mentioned in the same sentence considering Rami is like a marketing grifter.

Rohrer has placed most of his creative work, like video games' source code and assets, into the public domain as he is a supporter of a copyright-less free distribution economy.
yikes, oof, one of those dangerous alt-right MAGA types, hope he rots in prison with the rest of Gamergate after selling a wife-killing simulator to children
 
Oh muh lawd dude, real tawk. Klepek is a very sad faglord.

I fucking hate Patrick Klepek so fucking much. Not even ironically, I literally hate this motherfucker.
I love how this thread went something like three years without posts, and the usual response is "wait, this site still existed?" when it finally croaked in a puddle of its own shit, piss and vomit.
