BlueOctavo: Check out the steam forums and look who's flipping out over the reinstatement of a single sprite.
Awkward...

Gardegnome: lol Haven't seen this; could you link it?
You literally go to the store page and look at the most recent announcement. Then you look at the comments.

Cool cool.

Okay, so I've been through the first seven pages and have only seen one instance of a whiny person who seems to be on my side of this discussion. By contrast, the GOG reviews are full of triggered anti-SJW's, with at least one of their reviews on every page to at least like 20 pages in (last time I checked, a few hours ago).

Do have a screenshot of that one I found, though, and it is pretty stupid.

Gardegnome: Thanks for taking the time to be specific. I know I'm a dick, but I do appreciate that.

I saw several reviews that expressed these sentiments, that have since been removed it seems. Acknowledging the BS of sourcing things you can't actually produce, I will concede that this was flying off the handle a bit and I can't maintain it lol. That said, I was also criticizing the devs these minion reviewers were defending. I've attached two images, one of a review that suggests something similar to what I'd seen before, and one screenshot of some of one the devs' ignorant, bigoted remarks. That said, I admit that I have no evidence to support the claim that there were reviews accusing leftists of being pedophiles, and therefore would recind that. The criticism of the devs still stands, however.

As I said before, it's only 'without coherent meaning' because you're ignoring all of the specific claims I made. You've fixated on a miniscule part of my post and continue to offer the same ad hom criticism ad nauseam.
First, what you did was produce was somewhere between a straw-man and a very wide brush... which is why I ignored MOST of your complaint as generic. These points, however, are just COMPLETELY out of place and unrelated to the complaints on this game... and why I spoke up at all.

However, to address your pictures you gave, there is actually a history there SPECIFC to ResetEra (who did make the initial complaint). Basically ResetEra is the NeoGaf of old... and left to form a more concentrated ball of crazy over a pedo scandal going on. Dont know the details, don't really care. Not even sure THAT specifically was fair to put there. BUT that is where it comes from and something kinda linked to them BY people still at Neogaf trying to prove the pedos went with them. (quick bing lookup brought up neogaf posts).

AND I can see why listening to them in particular would specifically be objected to at that point. You should SEE the collections of "reasons people were booted" from either forum... want to talk petty and crazy? that will show you it.

Whew, yeah, they're getting buried fast. The good stuff starts around page 7 at this point. And the guy spamming Trump 2020 keeps getting deleted. Have another one

I'd have to look into it too...I don't know much about ResetEra, but that sounds like a real clusterfuck lol. For sure there are idiotic weirdos all across the spectrum, and I didn't mean to suggest otherwise. I'm just sick of the unchecked hypocrisy and paranoid conspiracy theories of reactionary morons.

Anyway, thanks for engaging with me, it's been fun.

Not sure I'd describe this as freaking out. This person is calmly issuing a criticism of this specific joke. The anecdote is pretty stupid, though. They aren't making a great argument, even though I don't disagree with them on principle.
