Yeah, I’m not mad that they chomped Humankind’s flavor. I see it as an admission that the game had good ideas (if less-than-stellar execution). I’ve just seem rando comments trying to tamp down on claims that there are similarities like their stock portfolio is riding on it.
I’m sure it’s management’s fault but they should be shouting out fellow devs in their breakdowns: “oh, we saw Humankind and thought it’s mechanic was fascinating. But we wanted to adapt it closer to our style and refine some pain points we noticed in our execution.”
Oh good, he felt accountability, finally, after 10 years of getting people to rape someone who trusted him. This is close enough to contrition for this lunatic, so we probably shouldn’t destroy him.
“She did not deserve this.” You don’t get to say that. I’d prefer if he never got to say anything for the short remainder of his natural-born lifespan.
Edit: having read the article in full, I can’t even maintain the absurdist tone I used in the first half. Whoever advised him on his defense should be barred from ever giving advice again because “I filmed the men I let into my home to rape my wife who I drugged without duress so I could prove she was definitely getting raped and wasn’t a party to her rape like some of these other degenerates are trying to claim” is a first-tier shithole of an explanation.
He was also radicalized by an unknown male nurse saying he should rape his wife. Must’ve been a goddamn Jedi because he got turned to rape very easily. This man is utterly reprehensible and I now want to learn French so I can tell him to die in his native language.
