@Photogenic_ono Grokさんはあなたのコメントを下ネタに解釈したようですが、意図的だったのでしょうか？

@nickydotnet @MagicMushMM CS:S / 1.6 and TF2 were like a golden age of doing deranged bits and griefing. I used to go by "DIRK DIGGLER" and do shit like micspam WWE themes, or shit up chat in servers that streamers on Justintv / early Twitch were on.

Doing research on this newest vid and I found my newest favorite user profile of all time

@MagicMushMM Found references to "EroticBurgerKing" on a /v/ archive, so it might've just been someone with a smiliar name

@MagicMushMM Holy shit. Maybe it's not them, but I think "sexualburgerking" might've been a legendary CS micspammer I remember long ago. They would blast audio from porn videos and Burger King ads layered on top of each other. They were a real one.

I got a comment that said to stop posting for a while. He's right. Unfortunately I don't have many other alternatives or more like any as in one single alternative

@LeeWasGarf @PASTELXENON1 Yeah stealing tweets to grift elonbux in ad revenue, "peak"

@PASTELXENON1 IT WAS A PEAK IDEA

@PirateSoftware @the_digi_law @jackvaniadev Fair enough. Just felt like it was a really bad look, even if it's clearly clipped out of context. Pissy and self-defeating enough to warrant acknowledging, even if it may not have actually have been your real game plan.

Yep. I was pissed and never actually ended up doing that. After I released my videos on SKG I didn't bring it up for 10 months and each time someone brought it up I ignored them. The way Ross talks about games sets me off and that fault is my own. I absolutely hate people looking down on the work involved in developing games and his entire video comes across to me as that.

Been reading through all of the posts against me over my stance on the Stop Killing Games initiative. Tons of people calling me a liar or that I misrepresented the initiative. Also lots of content creators dogpiling on this to get their pound of flesh. Lets dig into what I actually did and said. I put out two videos on August 6th 2024 and August 7th 2024. These videos are linked at the bottom of this post. Many people have not watched them and are just calling me a liar or attacking my character. Give the videos a watch, read the initiative itself, make a conclusion that you aren't copy pasting from social media. Monetization on these videos is disabled so no this is not some ploy to increase revenue. I just care about this subject and have rightful concerns as a person working in this space. In the first video. I go through what an initiative is, how it's not law, and how it's a starting point for this entire process. This helps people understand that this is to start the conversation for change and can adapt later. I then go through the initiative and some of it's goals from the official page for it. I then talk about the repercussions of them should they be implemented. As written all games need to be left in a "Functional Playable State". Next I bring up The Crew and walk through the business around it, the sequels, and the size of the player-base at time of sunset. I did this because it was called out by this initiative as an example of publishers destroying a game. I also harshly critique Ross Scotts wording in his videos because they disparage the lawmaking process and lawmakers which doesn't benefit players or this movement in any way. In the second video. I talk about potential scenarios where a studio could be abused if the initiative was implemented as written. It adds new paths for abuse and that needs to be discussed to help hone this initiative into something that would do good without doing harm. I then explain that very few people in the game development space can actually discuss this from the other side due to fear of losing their jobs. A studio is much safer in silent dissent then they are discussing the drawbacks of your ideals. The recent attacks on our games is obvious evidence of this. To recap. My main issue with this initiative is that it is broad in it's approach to change the industry and the exact language of the initiative, not the FAQ, requests that all games stay in a "Functional Playable State". This is not feasible for all games at a technical level and could potentially restrict developers from making online-only games like MMOs, MOBAs, and User Generated Content games in the future. That list is not exhaustive and it doesn't matter if you do or don't like those kinds of games. Effectively this has the potential to restrict future developers from making kick-ass experiences because it locks a weight on their designs. Even though this is an initiative that can change in the future this goal is core to the mission and deeply disruptive so it needs to be called out. To clear up some disinformation about my character. I left AAA in 2016 because I fucking hate how the industry is now and prefer indie entirely. I don't like Blizzard or I would have stayed working there. That's why I quit. That's the entire point. Fuck AAA and what many studios have turned games into. Outside of that no I am not financially supported by live service games. I make a single player RPG and am the Director of Strategy for offbrand games. In that position I am paid MINIMUM WAGE by my own decision because I care about games succeeding not about profiting off of them. To further this the games we're publishing are all playable offline anyway because their gameplay loops are not only based on inter-player interaction. Not all games are like this and not all games can be like this. No, I have not been running away from discourse on this I talked about it for around 8 hours on stream yesterday. I never took my videos down and I have not discussed the initiative in the 10 months it's been since I released those videos. My internet also died mid-broadcast so I had to go live again 30 minutes later. Thanks ISP. For those that will scream HE'S DOUBLING DOWN. Yes I damn well am. I give a shit about this initiative and what it means for games, developers, and players in the future. To finish out. Just because I don't support this doesn't mean you should blindly follow me in that just because I said pretty words on the internet. You also shouldn't blindly bash me because some other creator said to. Watch the videos I put out, read the initiative, decide for yourself. Apply critical thinking and don't outsource it to others. As always. Stay Frosty. First Video: youtube.com/watch?v=ioqSvL… Second Video: youtube.com/watch?v=x3jMKe… Minimum Wage Proof: x.com/PirateSoftware…

@PirateSoftware @the_digi_law @jackvaniadev Trying to be charitable, but the 2nd point doesn't really line up

1. What did I misrepresent when my main issue with it has been the wording "Leave games in a Functional Playable State". 2. When have I told people not to vote for it? I have always said I would not vote for it and you can do what you want. You might want to actually watch the videos I put out.

@BillyPacman In Hollywood or SoFlo in general?

I am considering renting out an entire arcade and throwing a massive party. We can all celebrate this W together.

@tonyhawk @charlieINTEL Hey Tony, why is Devo never in Tony Hawk games? Licensing fees or something?

@charlieINTEL 👀

Looks like a teaser for something related to Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater has been found in Black Ops 6’s Grind MP map! Announcement on March 4. 👀

@FerAnchus @NOTrateyrmusic decent idea in theory, but the execution has been a faceplant

@NOTrateyrmusic What do people think about this update?

@zapotc @NOTrateyrmusic extremely underrated album

@NOTrateyrmusic Yes. I have this record of theirs that I've only listened to once :l I'm sorry

@elonmusk bitch

I meet so many people who read twitter every day, but almost never tweet. If I may beg your indulgence, please add your voice to the public dialogue!

@SouthAFAO I remembered that scene awhile back and couldn't sleep until I made a high quality clip of it to show to people that I wasn't making that scene up

The law and order SVU clip where Kyle MacLachlan does a Big Boss judo throw on a cop, steals another cop’s gun, and blows away a kid in a courthouse was apparently scrubbed from YouTube so I spent $3 to buy the episode digitally

@justinboldaji @Raldridgea @m_lapinski In fairness, it was edited much tighter in the finalized workprint, but when they went back to do the Director's Cut, they used the long version instead of the shorter workprint edit. youtu.be/d5sVHUGhTNA

@Raldridgea @m_lapinski Lmao I’ll give you number 2

Somehow just recently learned about the original Little Shop of Horrors ending. Test audiences are a scourge on cinema & are responsible for countless lost treasures

@OrangePaulp Idea from @zuza_real twitter.com/zuza_real/stat…

@bambooney idk I've been on the Elba train for awhile
