I will always remember TB for the time he helpfully directed a GG hatemob my way. Wonderful man. RIP.

Veneration of the dead is absurd.

I really could say other things here. i'll just say that a wife has lost their husband. A son has lost their father.

I dunno, perhaps that should mean more than GamerGate. To me, it REALLY should all things considered. Their should perhaps be some perspective.

But hey, if that's the path you wanna go down than what the hell ever

GamerGate (lol) and Trump broke wokes so it's useless to argue or reason with them on certain (most, really) topics. Withdraw.

Rest in peace, TB.

Ding dong the guy who literally could not even say "I'm sorry" to Anita Sarkeesian, Brianna Wu, Zoe Quinn and others directly affected by GamerGate died.

Best wishes to his family.

I've learned the best thing to say in situations like his is 'my thoughts and prayers are with his family'. Whatever's at the end he's there and his part of this world is done regardless of how you feel about him, I'm very said for his wife and kin left behind because this is a devastating thing to happen to them that they still have to live with.

I liked the series he did with Jesse Cox in Terraria because he's always seemed like the sort of guy who really needs a counterbalance of some sort to shine and that seemed to work well for him. His weird standoffish crusade against harassment victims was incredibly lovely and really soured his content for me though, both current at the time and retroactively.

A part of me wishes there were people in his life who were stricter about telling him off for being an rear end in a top hat, because I've already seen his fans pestering people he hurt directly and indirectly for positive eulogies.

Ah yes, a tall man with a big sword. Truly such a novel and original idea could not exist without Berserk specifically. :v:

Yes, I know that FROM were inspired by Berserk for a lot of things. Giving Berserk credit for one of the most generic and simple concepts imaginable is giving it a bit too much undue praise.

having a big sword is, like, the least "inspired by Guts" aspect of Artorias's design.

Cancer sucks but so does sending hate mobs after women, so maybe just keep the mourning to twitter and not spam the thread with tweets about how he was such a great teacher of ethics and an inspirational human.

Especially if he's harassed people in this thread.

I do, but rarely do my other hobbies correlate to the ongoing topics in this thread.

I don't actively go seeking fodder for the thread, but then I see something that seems worth bringing up, and I post it. The Shaun one took me by surprise, because I didn't expect that from him.

Back about a week ago we had a quick chat about the Killzone games and I just wanted to say thank you to Nine Gear Crow for linking to his and Blind Sally's let's play series on the franchise. Killzone 2's campaign is still my favourite in the series and one of my favourite FPS campaigns ever, so it was really fun reading your views on Rico's descent into madness and how incapable Alpha Team is of dealing with his meltdown. And that ending cutscene still kills it nearly ten years later.
