Every time I see this person on twitter, or in the news..he's acting like a foul mouthed diva. I saw him make those comments in GDC, which totally validates the notion he's a smug, holier than thou little prick. No, I won't sympathize with someone who doesn't have a mental filter..whose outwardly rude, most likely not on purpose..but still. I won't excuse that because he made a game. If I acted like that in public, or at work, I'd be fired, or punched in the mouth. Rightfully so..I was being a fuckin tool.
You got a behavioral problem? Yeah, a lot of us do. Do the responsible thing FOR YOURSELF, and sort it out.
All I read about is why this guy catches so much venom and hatred..
Most of it is because of things he has said. I mean, he made a good fucking game. Nobody hates him because he made a good game. They hate him because he acts like an asshole.
I mean, have we all forgotten why he's received so much negativity? He doesn't handle getting knee deep into shitholes he dug himself into well, at all. He just digs himself deeper.
Now he's going to blame the industry.
The only who has MY sympathy at the moment for shit like this Vonderharr. He didn't do anything wrong, say anything, act the fool. He made a change, that a lot of people didn't like, and lashed out with death threats. Kind of like what Phil did with Marcus Beer, told him to kill himself.
And I've watched hundreds of hours of futurama, I didn't get that reference.
