Don’t care about the rest, but this one stings a little. Thankfully, the originals are still fun to play.
Sail the seas if it reviews good.
Thanks I’ll make sure to avoid them in the future!
Thanks for the list. They’re going on my black list as well
So stay away from saber games.
I knew nothing about them until now and his statement reveals a lot more about their company than even hers did
Yup.
Just added saber to my ignore list on steam. No thanks slop peddlers.

Karch also stated that he didn’t know who Sacco was until he consulted an AI chatbot, but nevertheless claimed that she was replaced by “someone more talented” and that he would retrospectively be “happy to replace her with AI” because AI is “programmed to be honest.”
Here’s Karch’s full statement:
"Stella who? I had to ask Claude because I have never spoken to her or seen her. We have already said we are using AI for certain parts of the game and will update the Steam page once we have finalized the feature set.
Tbh that sounds totally like a rant by someone caught in the act…
Stella who? I had to ask Claude because I have never spoken to her or seen her.
Man, these people have lost their fucking marbles…
Yeah, this quote confirms that the CEO has become AI-obsessed and therefore probably did replace the writer with AI, just like the writer claimed.
Also, it is always so weird to me when people admit that they used AI to do something that they definitely should’ve been able to do without AI. “I had to ask Claude who this employee was” is not a dunk on the employee! You’re just admitting that you don’t even know how to search for a name in your own HR system! Like you’re an incapable moron or something!
“I don’t know who you are” is a common insult from pathological narcissists, which I guess is what he was trying to convey.
And to the people, not knowing your employees (or giving a damn to look them up) implies a structure where leadership is disconnected from the craftsmen that actually bring value to the company. Making leadership look out of touch, unrelatable, and outright crass.
Not to mention that he proves the writer correct in their accusation by admitting he does use AI and relishes in it.
To a narcissist, being unknown or forgotten is the worst possible insult
Dude went full psycho and confirmed story more or less. Not a great look for this asshole and the company.
" because AI is “programmed to be honest.”
HAHAhA no. LLMs are programmed to give you the most likely answer according to their training data, not necessarily the truth. For an example look at how much Grok has been lobotomized to fit his daddy’s warped sense of reality.

Dude says he asked AI who one of his employees was instead of reaching out to HR
Truly an example of trash humans failing upwards
Yup, exactly that. Not only does that show they internalized using AI for the most banal tasks and think that’s normal, but also just shows how tone deaf they are in a discussion about using AI to replace an employee 🤦🏽♂️
Let me clarify that the entire story script, were it to win an award, would go to someone who can walk up on stage and receive it.
That’s sooooo not the question
“We’ll draw straws at the time”
Don’t worry. It’s not going to win any awards.
Saber CEO who?
Never heard of this little guy. Now I know he and his company are garbage, tho. 🤷♂️👍
If you’re going to fight a writer on their turf (=words), you should absolutely expect to be assassinated
Dude sounds like a slightly more coherent Trump. Even included the obligatory “I don’t even know her” line.
Been playing snowrunner again lately bc i’m away from home for a couple weeks and it runs well on my laptop/plays well with controller. It didn’t used to stick out so much but the amount of petroleum industry propaganda is glaring now. Fun game, but it’s a shame this CEO is so shitty, guess I won’t be buying any more Saber content.
He’s mad because she was right.
lol fuck that douchebag
I’ve heard nothing but negative things about the gaming industry as of late. Does a majority of it stem from the industry being led by scumbag CEOs like this one?
I wish I could blame it all on these kinds of people. In reality it’s about 60% of the story or so. They’ve always been around but they weren’t this bold a decade ago.
A small part is the political climate over the last decade. That’s a topic worth its own encyclopedia one day, and games is affected as well.
A large part is that games just isn’t doing well financially right now. Because everyone in tech wants to invest in AI so there’s a lot less money in the space. Smaller or medium sized teams can’t get funding and less pitches get approved. Larger studios are “fine” but companies are using this time to cash out. Which is why you hear about Activision selling out to Microsoft and EA to Saudi Arabia. Layoffs at small companies happen because they need to (or companies simply shut down) , layoffs at large companies happen to make the number go up.
Last decent chunk of the problem is the landscape of games is changing. Converging more on “forever games” rather than traditional console experiences. This is an emerging problem that will get worse over the coming years, something even the consoles themselves are trying to shape itself around.
So much consolidation in the last decade means that the majority of the by AAA game devs are owned by like 2-3 companies at this point. It’s horrendous.
Like Activision used to be the nicest publisher. Then it merged with Blizzard and Vivendi (who owned Bethesda), and then Microsoft just straight up bought them, and King (candy crush dev). And now MS wants almost nothing to do with games after doing fuck all with those acquisitions except laying people off and closing some of the studios.
The majority of games made by the gaming industry exist purely to create profit.
This is not the artist and developers fault, they are still passionate but their hands are tied to executive whims.
It’s genuinely almost all shit. The only good games left are indie games and older gems.
Honestly way cheaper and not requiring the latest hardware either.
This game is made in a country that bombs civilians daily and threatens the whole world with nuclear weapons (not, not US and not Israel either) but who cares
You can just say it plainly - saber is r*ssian.
Holy shit what a horrible concept for a game…
