Please say it again but say it in a reply where you’re also linking some months old post you either saved or wasted life searching for because you need some console warrior gotcha.

See what I mean? Best of both sides 😆😆😆

Oh dear, more unhinged ramblings. Here, allow me to provide you with some advice, because you clearly need it at the moment:

Clickbait title it seems. It is not explicitly directed at all gamers.

Doesn't really matter if it is or not. The damage is done. People, myself included, didn't realize the insult was directed at Musk and Grummz. And either way it's a really bad look.

What is it with game developers and their social media policies? Every company I've ever worked for has strict guidelines on what you can and can't do on social media as it relates to posting on the company and its work. Do game companies not do this and not have PR departments?

Also, the moron dev even got the insult wrong and misspelled "sad". We're working with real geniuses here.

So... what is the opinion now of those who said "they are just pronouns"?
Well since you asked...

Wow, imagine not going through life constantly angry and butt hurt over letters and pronouns. Can’t relate.

Let's make another 50 youtube/twitch reaction videos on the tweet of an employee out of hundreds with a bunch of peoples in chat being all Beavis and Butthead

Yeah, I like to laugh at both sides of the pendulum because they’re both equally hilarious. Sorry friend, try the receipt game again.

Now incels and autists won't even play this game. We can't stop winning!

Touchy fuckers everywhere.
It’s just criticism, bo need to get all angry and verbal over someone’s opinion

I don’t have a Reeee account and I don’t need one, your ilk posts most of the good stuff here anyway. Here on GAF I get to experience the best of both sides of the cringe and insanity. Kind of like how I don’t need to know who any of the Xbox shills are or follow any Xbox news, I can just come to GAF and you are obsessed with talking about it.

What am I walking back exactly, and what isn’t true? Sorry, I’m not super fluent in warrior speak. You’re trying to make this into 3D chess when it’s just Candyland, friend.

Yeah, the endless talk about importance of DEI, pronoums and all that whacky shit, and the constant moaning about the existence of all of it.
I totally get it that this stuff triggers people, but I just find it all a bit too much. I'll prefer to just play the games that I think looks cool, and if I enjoy them i'll keep playing them.

And I know this is a kinda silly thing to write when i'm a active member on a gaming forum, but yeah.. it's just kinda how I feel about this whole thing.

Weird, you cut off the part where I say I’ll play it on GamePass. I’ll also buy it if it’s good. Yeah, I was trashing a MS game. Don’t tell GHG, he’s triggered enough as it is.

Well, what else can I say, I honestly don't understand what happened to the gaming industry, and why developers now feel an irresistible desire to assert themselves on Twitter...even before the game has been released. Their situation was already bad, the game was tightly squeezed between Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Civilization 7, Assassin's Creed Shadows (It's funny, of course, but it's released on February 14th...), Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii and Monster Hunter Wilds. Looking at this, I don't understand how they are going to collect sales, and they are making the situation worse with posts like this, apparently so that the game will definitely not sell. Well, or they are sure that this will not prevent them from selling the game - then I bow before their madness, it is sinful to laugh at sick people...

Elon is an utter fucking tool some of the time. That doesn't excuse or justify potentially destroying your fucking company just because you have no self control or self preservation instinct.
I don't really care much for Musk, but trying to clap back is just deeply unnecessary when the game is beginning to build some hype.

Own him *after* your game becomes a success.

These types of people always love outing themselves. Always has to be "ME ME ME ME!"

It makes sense that they'd latch onto this gender/pronoun stuff, since that too is a cry for attention.

Yep they along with the other crazies usually fits well together.

All the better at the end when it ends up flopping just like the countless woke garbage infested plague vermin games that flopped throughout this whole year.

I hate Elon. He is stupid and gets all the praise rather than engineers.
But lol he is right here.

Who is this game for? Make game for gamers. Make it cool and all that.
Gears sold great because it was super fun dude bro trilogy that was short, well done and very fun.

And this is over budgeted game for a tiny minority of population.
