The last time there is a whole lot of controversy around the dude "Pirate Software" aka Thor aka Jason

@milkman76 You do know that he was actively against the stop killing games uh?
@stux I have literally watched numerous videos of him campaigning for stop killing games, and I've listened to him talk about it at length on several streams recently, and I have no idea what you are saying.

@milkman76 Not sure we talk about the same person?

He didn't do much harm I guess but it's just so sad to see that again someone with a massive mouth gets so much attention while doing zer0 of the actual work
There are so many amazing indie games that will barely be downloaded because too much attention goes to scammers like Thor
@stux I watched enough of his streams to know that he lifted up a number of indie game creators, I don’t buy that he’s *only* a scammer. He was a popular streamer because he was good at streaming, and yeah he is rather full of himself but people are treating him like he is evil incarnate.
I never would have gotten started with the game I am currently working on if it wasn’t for him talking about the importance of “just getting started”, so for that I’m grateful

@stux I don't know what that is, but I've seen 3 or 4 interviews with Thor/Jason, im not confused about who he is at all, and I appreciate the efforts he has put into stop killing games? You keep saying things, but these things don't jive with the interviews he has given.
Is the gaming industry THAT pissed at him?? Time to accuse him of sex crimes, too?? Wow.

For years he presented himself like some sort of god in software / game development because he "worked at Blizzard" for years
He worked on a game for over 7 years now and on release it turned out to be a walking / talking simulator that was incredibly bad written in code
The reason he worked at Blizzard for years is because his daddy is an exec there and no one dared to fire him
@stux This the guy who was spreading misinformation about stop killing games?

@stux I think we miscommunicated. I thought you switched the names and positions of the Stop killing games guy with the fake guy, who is basically opposing all of it on behalf of game devs lol.
