Johnny R is just trying to save his own ass after screwing the shareholders with 2022’s stock decline, by screwing the devs instead. Niiice, real classy move Johnny. 

without some compelling evidence to the contrary you practically have to believe when someone makes a claim like this. Otherwise you’re stooping to maga-level hot take assertions that “those people painted slurs on their own house!” on first report of something like that

as credible as their licensing scheme

Most likely pulling tweets or reddit posts and using it to distract from what they have done.

The newest trend by public figures is to claim that they received death threats as a way to recieve sympathy and to distract people from whatever horrible thing they have done in the first place.

If I were Unity, I would be doubling down and getting any money I could while I still actually could, because they’re never going to be able to unfuck the proverbial goat here lol

I don’t buy it, this dipshit’s just trying to deflect some of the negative attention. ‘Credible’ in this case probably means they got an email that says ‘I want to fucking kill you’.

I’m not surprised. This policy hits a certain sub-section of indie devs incredibly hard. Imagine spending X plus years on a game only to find out now that releasing it can only financially hurt you. All that work goes in the trash and the amount of debt and overhead keeps layering on. This can pretty much ruin a…

I doubt it. More likely they saw/read someone say something mean and someone (coughex-eaceogough) is just trying to garner some sympathy. Lack of details makes it suspect.

I can see how this could happen. Unitys changes are crippling to some people, and people may have spent years of their life, their own savings etc for a product that these changes completely and utterly cripple.

Not just existing products, but ones they were working to release “soon”.

Death threats and bomb threats etc…

It’s extremely common for friends/family of a convicted defendant to write letters for a packet reviewed by the judge ahead of sentencing. Judges have broad sentencing guidelines so that they can use discretion on a case by case basis, and those packets fall under that practice.

And Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy before it. But jplearn did specify “3D”, which disqualifies both games, even if it is incredibly clear that Only Up! is just a 3D version of the concept. (And also specifically excluded “other fail-type climb to the top games”.)

jesus fuck this shit. You’re gonna jump this car and then that’s the angles and the footage? Sure, makes lots of fast cuts but end with one UNINTERRUPTED TAKE OF THE WHOLE JUMP ffs

No clear shot of the front landing, lame

You telling me Elon can fit between those cars even with the wing doors?

I worked for a company that demanded similar video output from a tiny video production team on a regular basis. It’s stupid and short-sighted. Not only does it end up with low-quality video product, it also burns out your team.

I don’t think there is anything wrong with his staff not being in a union, MOST jobs aren’t union jobs. And I don’t really see anything wrong with them not having and black talent in front or behind the scenes, maybe they haven’t had any or many apply, I don’t know the demographic make up but from a quick search it’s…

I think it’s because Linus Media Group owns 5 different channels and they each put out about 3 videos a week.

They literally do. LMG has a bunch of channels, not just LTT.

They absolutely do. LMG is more than just LTT. They have a ton of channels at this point, and across them all (all done by the same staff), that is an accurate tally.
