Man it's going to be weird seeing the usual chorus of "well I never liked his stuff anyways  " posturing people do when a predator gets outed after 20 years of Planescape being hailed as one of the best game narratives of all time and a decade of New Vegas as the gold standard of open world storytelling.

Happy Hedonist posted:Yea, gently caress that guy. There is absolutely no way that apology is genuine. It takes time to deprogram and he’s claiming to have done it in days? One of the leaked posts literally makes fun of a developer who apologized about transphobic posts out of fear of being "smeared as unwoke" and gloats that the silent majority of Real Gamers are more important than pandering to the SJW fake gamers who were never going to buy your game anyways. That he instantly crumpled the moment the spotlight was turned on him out of cowardice is completely unsurprising but he's absolutely acting with a degree of knowing cynicism rather than any genuine attempt at making good, hopefully when it finally hits him that he's almost 40 and is effectively ostracized from every community and industry he has spent his adult life endearing himself to he'll decide to actually try and fix his heart instead of giving up and becoming a blackpilled shell of a person.

Dapper_Swindler posted:exactly. its why i am waiting for some hammers to fall on various twitter critics and not surprised when folks like mandalore gaming end up being chill and not chuds. Mandalore was in the Stellar Jockeys discord when Gauss was outed as a transphobe and assured the team that he was still going to do his upcoming review to promote the game and wouldn't include anything about his behavior in it, so at the very least he was totally cool with signal-boosting and channeling money towards a chud. Also he's affiliated with GoG which is incredibly sus if any of their many lovely marketing dogwhistles are any indication.

exquisite tea posted:In addition to being wrong, this is just an unhelpful perspective to take towards abusers and abusive behavior in general. Abusers are very good at hiding themselves. They're often very careful to say the right things in public, and in many cases may even belong to the same marginalized out-group as their victims. There is NO "public persona" that innoculates anyone from suspicion. Look if people want to out themselves as being so fundamentally broken that they think that everyone who acts nice or does good things is just faking it to cover for being monstrous it's better we let them do that so we know not to take them seriously anymore.

Irony Be My Shield posted:IMO it's bad to speculate that people are sex criminals based on no evidence at all For a distressing number of people this is just one more avenue to cast aspersions on all the people they personally dislike and justify their weird persistent hatreds of niche internet community figures rather than an actual genuine interest in preventing future acts of sexual harassment and assault.

Endorph posted:like we've had plenty of instances of dudes who made awkwardly horny games being outed as abusers Yeah, all the dudes who come out of the woodworks to smirk about how actually the horny 50 year old japanese game devs are the most innocent ones conveniently forget all the dudes like Tomonobu Itagaki that have been accused of sexual harassment in the pre-MeToo era and quietly slipped out of the spotlight afterward as a result. dogstile posted:Sure, but if someone gives you the creeps when you interact with them, there's probably a reason. The reason is confirmation bias of your own prejudices. You don't have magical mind-reading powers, especially not for complete strangers you observe at a distance through edited videos and curated social media posts, and acting like everyone you personally dislike must have a dark secret is how you wind up in Qanon.

Wicked Them Beats posted:Dude from Rooster Teeth had several hundred nudes leaked, claims floating around that the leaker is an underage victim he was grooming. From what I've seen so far these claims are unsourced accusations from Kiwi Farm/4chan posters so I'd wait until there's some corroboration before you burn your Red vs Blue box set in effigy. Yeah, the flipside of "believe victims" is that you ignore baseless rumors and accusations when there's no actual victims coming forward.

I really wish they just had an entirely separate internet for everyone under 18, it would make life so much better for everyone. This isn't even the first youtube guy to have his life ruined because a girl lied about her age and then later cashed it in for cancel points once she felt guilty.
