I saw a Tiktok saying that he shouldn't have thanked the lazy devs, that all the growth was because of this streamer and I felt some sort of spiritual damage hit me

Honestly didn’t go in expecting it to be as bad as it was.

I had to look up and translate multiple things to understand this and now feel more informed and also depressed. Also kids spending too much money on Roblox doesn't count because it's their parents money!!!

I'll pass thanks.

To me—and I don't pretend to be some arbiter of truth, but to me—responding to an article making a point of highlighting something as an issue with an explanation that it is just "good business" and "it is what it is" reads, contextually, as a dismissal of that issue.

"Forgive me for the harm I have caused this world. None may atone for my actions but me and only in me shall their stain live on. I am thankful to have been caught, my fall cut short by those with wizened hands. All I can be is sorry, and that is all I am"

Wonder to what degree this feeds into a bigger picture about how people talk about contemporary games - “trash”, “garbage”, “not worth it”, “waste of time” etc are common. This reaction reads to me as “you are nothing without us”.

Well… yeah… thank you for sharing that psychic damage.

Bumped into this as well on default Reddit and oh god the fact that he called the streamer out by name in the statement.
