like MAN i don't like him or his partner or any of his work
like, you've heard the interviews, right? i was following PA's progress last year because i like the game conceptually and i really wanted someone to like offer them more budget to make a sequel or maybe a remake or something or an update that smooths out it's like hundred billion rough edges but then it turns out the devs are a pair of idiots who- even
in the context of a professional journalistic interview that exists only to help them generate hype- spent all their time yelling at eachother and screaming about the money that they don't have but so desperately deserve because they're starving indie devs who made some game
like not even a particularly good game or anything or one that was well marketed. they seem not only like starfishs but also sort of entitled to this mysterious indie grant that all indies get because they're indies
i thought it was on rock paper shotgun but i can't find it now, but apparently the
hate is still around so the interview must have existed in the first place
one guy in particular spent like the entire interview trashing basically anyone he had come in contact with during the game's development- including his co developer and his own family-, in addition to suddenly flipping around and acting all deferrent and polite to the guys running the interview like he was flipping a forgetin switch
on top of that the forgeter's even
lamenting the fact that sending a literal death threat to the head of an influential company somehow led to him taking down his forgetin game on twitter holy stuff
"why is everyone mad at me? i just lashed out like an entitled jackass at a guy for giving me what i wanted in the first place"
