He pops in the teek faceless discord from time to time. But I think its probably more what Xevy said, especially about this forum. As its gotten ridiculously more political, used to be pretty confined to general section , but slowly leaking into the game sections of the forums. Where I think the only thing that matters is whether a game is fun and worth the money, I could care less who is making it or if there is some kind hidden message in them(if you let such messages bother or effect your way of thinking, I feel bad for you).

It's happening again.

When I was growing up, gaming was being fucked with by fundamentalist karens and their religious agenda. Now its progressive bullshit. I assume I will live to see some new wave of retarded in the future push their infectious garbage in.

Gaming has been and probably will always be mired in politics.

This true, its always been there to an extent. If it pushes too hard it can completely derail from the game. But little snippets here and there I can easily ignore if the other 95% of the game is fun. A lot of open world RPGs can have things like this. I prefer zero religious or political crap in my game, any activist agenda at all. Sure some game worlds are built around things like that, and its usually fine if handled correctly(like pushing multiple sides, or say the game is all about pure fanaticism from the character or characters and fits the story theme). And censorship is bad all around in a game, unless its a game focused on children.

I mean more in turms of this forum, and just look at the start of this thread how many were instant no because its secrets and what he is in RL. With zero knowledge of the game. Now if you have bad experience with him on some previous development he did, or the p99 guy did(think both are working on this) that's fine, or even DBG.

Edit : I actually agree with what mrniceguy said above, that kind of stuff is dumb and its honest criticism. First time for everything. But that is censorship, and I covered that and keeping religion out of games unless it fits the context.
