Review bomb where? On their page they link to Steam, where they have one released game (95% positive) and two demos (one unrated, second 90% positive).
"on discord and twitter"
Alright, so no review bombing going on then, as Twitter is full of dumbfucks anyway and can burn to the ground, and who the hell goes on Discord to review a game? It seems like it was about harassment, and not review bombing.
Yup
#gasp
He's still financially involved with the publisher.
Don't review bomb them, just don't buy from them.
That's not the right thing to do.
There are more people behind the publisher than him. He's not big enough of a douche to make them all pay for it.
Impact is there, he got what he asked for. We're done here.
Sorry, but anyone taking up space in my pigeon brain is "big enough" to be petty. I don't know what qualifies as big enough for you though.
And just to be clear, I'm just talking about boycotting, not leaving nasty reviews or messages.
It's the right thing to do in my not-so humble option.
Elon Musk owns "only" ~~20%~~ 10% of Tesla and I would never buy a car from them because of that. There are probably hundred thousands of workers involved with the company.
Jason Hall probably still owns 50% of the company with only a handful of people involved. Why should I not boycott them?
Enough with the pitchforks. Musk is a Nazi, Thor is just an idiot. There is a difference.
Boycott who you want, but don't make this a vendetta for life. Petition is through, Thor got what he deserved. Case closed.
Musk was also just an idiot and look what became a few years later.
Uhh? I don't agree with them that it's that big of a deal but he did a lot more than being an idiot, he tried (and almost succeeded) to kill a petition that many people dedicated months of their life to because he's a narcissist who refuses to change his opinion, and he would very clearly do it again if given the chance. I would say pitchforks are justified.
In my mind it's the severity of the action.
Among other things, Elon Musk helped put a fascist in the White House, then withheld food aid killing children in the developing world while that food rotted in warehouses.
We should fight back against Elon in whichever way we can, including boycotts.
Thor has a controversial opinion about video games.
Elon Musk owns "only" 20% of Tesla
I don't think it's that high.

12.8%.

CEO Elon Musk is the largest shareholder, with 12.8% of the company's equity as of Feb. 28, 2025.
I found my info at https://www.uamr.de/wem-gehoert-tesla/
Elon Musk ist mit 20,6% der größte Einzelaktionär von Tesla
Elon Musk is Tesla's largest single shareholder with 20.6%
I did not assume that his stake was this high, but I did not care enough to look for a second source. So, thank you for providing more reliable figures!

Drama aside, I'm just glad to read the goal was reached. Hopefully something comes of the effort.
What has this Pirate Software released? I'm not familiar with their games

As far as I've seen, the only thing PirateSoftware did "wrong" was point out some unintentional consequences that would fall on indie developers given the language used in SKG as written, and get a bit personal in his criticism of Ross Scott, and everyone has lost their minds on the dude. Idgaf about personal beef between creators and I agree with his concerns for indie developers even though I still support the idea of SKG (there is a happy medium place to be found here). Even if I didn't, he's said nothing so inflammatory to the cause as to earn all this stupid drama. Chill the fuck out.
