I feel a sense of sadness for pirate software.
I don't disagree with the accusations of him as a scammer and nepo baby, and having an inflated ego, but... the level of mockery is a probably out of proportion. It's all the same flaws as a guy like Elon Musk, except on a much smaller scale. He just isn't positioned in a way that he can do terrible damage to the world, and the world kind of treated both of these people with the same severity. I'm calling it disproportional.

What I have heard are stories about his work ethic of watching tictok all day and his roommate noticing stains on certain walls(not a good story). It seems he knows enough programming to get a game up and running(I haven't checked, are we still "waiting" for Heartbound to be finished?).
Anyway If all that was spin from internet trolls then so be it. I've not watched any of his videos nor directly witnessed his gamedev experience(he was a tester at Blizzard, not a dev) so I'll remain undecided about if these stories are real or just a smear campaign.

what
In the end he was just a weird incel with a superiority complex. Hopefully he'll come out on the other side of this a little more humble.
do ye, aye? i personally am just enjoying the ride of his suffering. hes not a good person, and on top of this is supremely arrogant. so watching his downfall is a treat to me.

Like many people, he will simply never admit that they clamp off the umbilical cord before the completion of placental transfusion.
MeatCanyon made a video about him. Funny, but obviously meant to insult him.

He made his bed, many times over, he can lie in it.

small people can become the obstructions which grind the world to a halt just as much as big people.

Elon is also getting said mockery and ridicule, it's just that there's a small cohort who still like him (just like Mr.Maldavius). Elon fanboys just tend to be louder/more numerous than Figtree's because Elon has a larger presence

PS built his throne atop a house of cards, he got the natural consequence of doing so

It was insulting but felt less so than some of his other vids. I think he's generally toned it a bit down recently, and for the better

Nah, he deserves it. All he had to do is say "I'm sorry, I was wrong", or any variation. But the guy simply can't reach a level of humility or self-awareness that shows he's just as normal as the rest of us.

Instead, he has this "I'm always right and you're always wrong" attitude that people hate, even when he's severely wrong. He wanted to take down the SKG initiative, and everyone else took him down instead.

All he had to do was apologize.

whats that
I see Heartbound is on steam, but its Early Access. I'll wait until it becomes a "real" game before digging further into it(or the demo).

Regardless of if you love, hate or never knew him.

The social media gaming hate crowd bashing the man in several topics was quite funny to see them being wrong in some of those.
And for me to avoid pointless discussions, i'll just say that the official reaction to some pertinent stuff has been reported and had the exact reaction he said would have.

In political matters when you need impact you can't have the motion going back to the drawing board, but fingers crossed that something decent comes out of it.
Last i heard where it counts nothing happened.
