Ross trying to save our games from being forever destroyed deserves a lot more than Thor hamstringing the campaign with slurs, insults and red herrings while completely missing the point of SKG.
Piratesoftware’s tomfoolery may have costed the real exposure the campaign could’ve had thus leaving us with jack results in failing to pass the initiative. All that volunteer effort made by Ross and everyone diminished because of one jerk with a large following.
It is deeply ironic just how entrenched in corporate BS this guy is while naming his channel Priatesoftware. I would laugh if it wasn’t so harmful to this endeavor.
As far as I know he’s also, ironically, staunchly anti-piracy.
He is and I distinctly remember one clip where he bragged that his game was piracy proof because the save system uses steam achievements. Conveniently ignoring the fully working steam backend emulators out there used to run every game whose sole DRM is the Steam Store.
The guy seems like a shill. A hired goon who successfully destroyed Ross’s movement, just like they planned!
Ubisoft: “Your deposit has been made into your account.” Hangs up phone.
“Phew, it didn’t take much to confuse the peasants to fight amongst themselves”
Lol what a bunch of cope. One guy made a youtube video and that’s the only reason why world governments aren’t changing laws? The video has less views than his Inscryption playthrough. Is he the sole reason for Inscryption’s success too? Is Thor actually a god who can make things happen just by leveraging the power of his 2 million subscribers!?
This failed because the average person does not care about “saving video games”. Nintendo announced they can revoke your access to play games you paid $80 for on the Switch 2 and it’s setting sales records.
First off that’s a strawman It’s not just one guy. It was thousands of advocates putting in various actions like writing letters, recording explanation videos and creating posters to name a few in bringing attention to this issue. The video is anything but cope if you had actually watched it you would know that. Second that’s disrespectful to all the efforts he has put into this. He never claimed to be the guy to “save gaming”. He has made it abundantly clear that it was always a team effort. The campaign had issues with exposure and misinformation.
