PirateSoftware Leaves OffBrand Games as Stop Killing Games Reaches Goal

So... I actually tinker around in Godot. Whilst looking around to see if anyone had, or was developing an extension I would find useful... I discovered 'Redot'. Basically, there is a small but very vocal group of people who are very, very angry that a Godot community manager made some pro LGBT, inclusive twitter posts, turned that into a culture war flare up on twitter... And then forked Godot. To make the anti-woke version of Godot. Their youtube channel has, as best I can tell, absolutely no descriptions of any substantial differences from... you know, an actual game engine feature set perspective. Beyond of course being behind Godot now, lol. What they do have is a bunch of rants about politics and edrama for their 'non-political' game engine. Also... they pronounce Redot as Re-Dot, hard t. Godot is Godot as in Waiting for Godot. Go - Dough. God - Oh. ... of course these idiots are literally uncultured and have never read the screenplay or seen the stage play, so they have no idea how to pronounce the word. smdhIs bigot pronounced "bih-got" or "bih-go?"

I don't like pirate software like any other guy, but I want to put credit where credit is due. He wasn't ranting about Godot being woke last year. He was actually actively defending it from all the bigots. One of the very few YouTubers or streamers, I saw. You have probably mistaken him with Asmongold. He has long hair too, and he is right wing nutjob pos.

Wait, did PirateSoftware rant about wokeness, or are you confusing him with fellow failed game dev Grummz?

Okay, as much as I approve of mocking bigots, I didn't pronounce "Godot" properly for a few years because I had never heard the name spoken before. I'd only ever read it. Usually, if a word is used properly, but pronounced wrong, it's an indicator that the word was learned from reading, not from hearing. Typically, people receptive to learning will try to correct themselves when it's pointed out. I'm very self conscious of this because I'm awful at pronouncing words. But for folks like this, yeah, mock the hell out of them.Lol grew up reading a lot of books and such, so very similar and I am usually bad at assumed pronunciation, such as godot which is judt learned thanks to this thread.

You do understand that on Steam if you have 50% or more negative reviews, it is a "Mostly Negative" and puts people off even trying. Bad reviews can have a serious effect on sales. 10 negative reviews in millions is nothing, 10 negative reviews alongside 10 positive is detrimental. It's all about the percentage and indie games work at a different scale. I'm unsure what the point about working for Blizzard means. You'll have to elaborate.On Steam you can report review bombing events to have the reviews struck from the list so... And the working at blizzard line is mocking Thor for literally never shutting the fuck up about his nepobaby job.

Pretty weird guy, honestly. Seems competent, but spends too much time complaining about other people instead of working on his own atufd.
