Or maybe just maybe he's not massively misinformed but it reading things differently hence no need to back down?

For context I read this.

Nothing in there states he's wrong simply he is interpreting things differently and his interpretation does not align with yours.

Also, complex but I doubt you are in the business of making games so I'm confident he probably has additional context forming his viewpoint which you do not.

Again, god forbid people have opinions. Is this where we are in the terms of discourse now? We are not allowed to disagree because one side feels they are "right"?

Fyi I have no skin in the game.

  • Hi, someone who does make games here!

    Whilst there are some concerns with the interpretability of the movement, the reasoning I have seen pirate software give comes across as disingenuous. He explains the worst possible reading, and dismisses the entire movement rather than help guiding it in the right direction like someone in his position could do.

    The real reason people are mad at him is because he made some unnecessarily rude comments about the organiser and the movement as a whole, which was incredibly unprofessional and made a lot of people feel betrayed by openly siding with the same big studios that many people feel cheated by right now.

    If you happen to have any questions, feel free to reach out! This is an incredibly passionate subject for both players and developers alike, but a lot gets lost in the crossfire :)

    Funny how you interpret people downvoting you as "you not being allowed to have an opinion" while downvoting you is nothing more than the expression of their opinions of you being wrong. So should opinions be expressed or not? You cant have that freedom just to yourself.
