And his “solution” is to make it clear before purchase that you’re only buying a license and it can be revoked or made useless at any point. Except companies can argue they already do that. It’s right there in the EULA, you did read it, right? You were supposed to. If not, it’s your fault you thought you were actually buying something.

He was a Nepo hire at blizzard who then failed his way upwards to work cybersec where he oversaw the period with the largest amount of cybersec scandals. He then quit his job in order to spend 6 years to develop a half-assed earthbound clone that's still not finished. At some point he started streaming where he would tell made-up stories about how he didn't suck at his at blizzard.

Or so I'm told.

I remember him bragging about baking Steam achievements deep into his game so it couldn't be pirated, or something like that.

I remember someone on r/gamedev bragging about doing that, only to get immediately dunked on by people pointing out that making a game dependent on steam achievements not bugging out is dumb and risky and that the literal exact same program used to bypass steam DRM in the first place can also emulate its achievement API if you just check a box asking it to do that while applying the crack.

he's the john oliver of internet hacker libs. he zeroes in on one kinda relevant issue but then never connects it to anything else and just repeats the default "common sense" knowledge.

At one point he made a video complaining about muh politics in his community and both sides-ing Israel/Palestine. Complete lib cope.

People got to like him because he had some funny clips going around in meme channels but really he's just a nepo baby with skin in the game on this issue who refuses to look outside of the box of the mindset that gives him.

lmao I love how even if I was interested in playing Destiny 2 for the story content, I literally cannot as chunks of it have been removed from the game and are inaccessible thanks to the Live Service treadmill. Including DLC people paid separately for, apparently!

He and his Reddit fanboys believe that the campaign is meant to force companies to host servers forever, and it will apply retroactively to every game to exist, and every publisher will have to give the games away for free forever, and Ross Scott will come and take your toothbrush. Or, he doesn't believe this and is just trolling and slandering.

His dumb videos keep showing up on youtube despite clicking "don't show this channel" or w/e.

All his little shorts are just like variations of "Chat do you wanna know why I left blizzard? Chat... Do you wanna know why I left Blizzard? I left Blizzard because it sucked dude."

like why do they all have millions of views

God yesss I get so irritated whenever I see him pop up and this articulates it perfectly.

Oh yeah completely agreed. Event limited content sucks ass. Been beating that drum for a long time.
