    It’s depressing when you see someone actively doing their best to help people gets harassed for the state of the industry upon which they have no control of…

    Of course there are reasons to be angry for the mass layoffs, but at least be angry at the people actually responsible.

      Likely answer is just some fucking assholes. There are some real garbage people in gaming communities.

        RTS multiplayer lobby brings out the best “talent” esp ww2 era.

        But either way, where do they get the idea to harass this guy… These people are LARPers and somebody got to feed them the targets to hate

    It struck me as odd that they didn’t mention his position, and placed focus on him being a small YouTuber, and being presented before millions of viewers, of course there are going to be people who latch on to something like that. If the messages he provided screenshots of are representative of the worst he’s received, I think he would have been better off not bringing attention to bad behavior, and just letting people forget.
