it takes him up to 4 minutes to realise his IDE is literally underlining an object he hasn't called or spelt correctly
I like his debugging methodology of "let me look at the diff so I can revert it instead of figuring out WTF the actual problem is". I wonder if he reinstalls Windows every time his Internet connection breaks or something. Also I'm probably autistic (and not the "good" kind), but the way he has his IDE setup with all the gay little windows open so that the actual editor takes up only something like 50% of screen space is really fucking triggering.
 
To the code monkeys in thread, answer me this. How hard is it for dialogue to be put into a game, assigned to a character?
I mean it'd vary by how complicated the logic is for the branching and all, but if he was smart he would've spent a couple of days several years ago writing a system that allows him to add new dialogue to the game without having to write code for it. Like I'll try to come up with a toy example on the fly of how you can encode a branching conversation without needing to write code (very rough, I thought of some better ways to do parts of this afterward but can't be fucked, you'll get the idea). Instead of writing any source code, you'd go to some file called something like "conversations.json" and add this conversation object to a big list of conversations (which may eventually need split into smaller files),

JSON:
{
    "conversationId" : "DonateToJohn",
    "dialogue":[
        {"id":0,
         "Speaker":"John",
         "Message":"Hello!""
        },
        {"id":1,
         "Speaker":"John",
         "Message":"I need $2.50 urgently, can you help?",
         "PlayerOptions":["Yes","No"]
         "NextDialogue":[
                 {"id":2, "conditions":[{"type":"selectedOption", "option":"No"}]},
                {"id":3, "conditions":[{"type":"comparison", "lval":"money", "rval":2.50", "comparator":">="}]},
                {"id":4}           
             ]
        },
        {"id":2,
        "speaker":"John",
        "expression":"upset",
         "message":"You'll regret this!",
         "nextDialogue":-1
        },
        {"id":3,
        "speaker":"John",
        "expression":"excited",
         "message":"Okay!",
         "nextDialogue":-1,
         "effects":[{"type":"alterData",  "operator":"-=",  "lval":"money", "rval":2.50"}
                         {"type":"setTrue", "value":"johnIsFriend"}
        },
        {"id":4,
        "speaker":"John",
         "message":"You're too poor"
        }
]
}


Even then this is a fairly overengineered example and unless the game had an autistic amount of logic in determining how the story branches you could simplify this greatly (plus other optimizations are possible, for instance to avoid writing "Speaker:"john" 5 times you could make it that the conversation object has a default speaker or you could make it that the system interpreting this file infers that if no speaker is specified, than whoever spoke previously is still speaking". It may also be better to have the effects and conditionals as their own objects in the dialogue array though you would probably want to change the name then.)

Basically what maldy does instead of this is hardcode the branching structure for each conversation into the game, then for each line of dialogue he has to go to a separate file, add the message "Okay!" as the 7301th element of a giant list of text, comment "7301 - Player gave money to beggar" next to it so he has a chance in hell of finding it with ctrl+f in 5 months from now, type "message=globalMessageArray[7301]" in the conversation code with no context, go to a different file, find that money is found at index number 17 of global items array, type "globalItemsArray[17]-=2.50", and then go to a different file, find out that "JohnIsfriend" is at position 382 of another list, do something similar, then go somewhere else and assign this as conversation #271. I may have the specifics wrong but it's genuinely on this level of what he's doing
 
I know his sleep schedule has been well documented but it's always nice to see new confirmations of old information.
Your browser is not able to display this video.

I'm 99% certain "short sleep syndrome" is fucking made up. Is it in the DSM?

Thor because he was born during a thunderstorm.

This has to be fantasy, I refuse to believe that's true and even if it were it's gay.

Hopefully someone can corroborate this information but I think the first job he is talking about here is his first stint at Blizzard, though, I don't know the timeline of him going to blizzard, leaving and then returning.

News to me about the early part. So it goes like this from memory:
  1. QA tester internship @ unknown
  2. Indie "FPS MMO" developer "inside Second Life" -this last part has been corroborated but the FPS MMO bit is news to me
  3. QA tester @ Blizzard
    1. Apparently then promoted to another position, but it's uncertain whether his role was changed or he was just given more responsibilities
  4. Developer @ Amazon Game Studios
  5. Contracted by the US Gov as a "social hacker" at nuclear power stations
  6. Established PirateSoftware as a studio after / during which "Champions of Breakfast" was released
  7. Partnered with steamer Ludwig as self-appointed "Director of Strategy" @ Offbrand Games

As always, from the dawn of time, until the heat death of the universe, Animus is almost complete. He shows this excel sheet any time someone asks about it, because it shows so much completed bullshit that random viewers might think he is actually making progress, instead of the truth that this spreadsheet hasn't changed in 3 years

This was his last stream? THERE'S BEEN NO PROGRESS.

Heat death of the universe voters are winning.

Direct quote.

"My first job was actually nepotism, 100%. I got this job because of who [my dad] is.

I went back and applied to Blizzard in 2009, I got the job, it had nothing to do with who he was, and nobody knew at the company that he was my dad until four years into my career there."

extracted_audio.wav:

Do it. Yeah. So my first job was actually nepotism 100% in 2004. I was a game tester. Actually, let me let me end the music here so you guys can have this. In 2004, it was a game tester on World of Warcraft Vanilla. I got that job because of who my dad is. My dad is the was it Blizzard for 23 years as a cinematic director that basically worked at Blizzard forever, right since the very beginning. And I got this job because of who he is. I sucked at it. I was dog shit. It bothered me very greatly that I had gotten a position where I was not up to snuff to be able to do this stuff. I found a couple of bugs, but I was not very good at these things. I left for five years. I went off and made my own things. I actually made them in Second Life. As funny as it is, I went and made an MMO in Second Life called Gear Works, which was a first person shooter MMO. I learned a shitload about programming. I learned a shitload about server management. I made a bunch of textures, a bunch of models. I worked with players and I got much, much better at doing what I was doing. I went back and applied to Blizzard in 2009. I got the job. It had nothing to do with who he was, and nobody knew at the company that he was my dad until four years into my career there, which is when I was leaving QA to become the lead of application engineering or lead of application security on Battle.net, which is where I got this, because I made that team because Blizzard didn't have a security team for its websites. So I built that team and I did it all on my own. After realizing that I was dog shit and not following the path of nepotism. So as much as you meme? Yeah, definitely no nepotism there.

My personal hypothesis is that *everyone* knew who Mald was (because how the fuck could you not), but never told him because when his dad got him a job (again) he asked to take pity on his retarded son and let him think he's a very clever boy.
 
It might be the other way around.
That actually made me sad. What a piece of shit. He even laughed right in his dad's face about it.

The people in his Discord are fucking retarded, talking about how americans are signing it.
That was a hard read. Too many thoughts. I get really bad groomer vibes from Mald. The people posting in there sound like children.

"I went back and applied to Blizzard in 2009, I got the job, it had nothing to do with who he was'"
Yeah I don't think many people were going to believe he got the job on his own even before he got busted cheating in Animal Well/Outer Wilds. Especially after hearing his dad talk, seems like he would jump off a bridge for his kid.



I noticed that Mald loves to conflate the people review bombing him and harassing him on twitter with SKG. Nothing to say except its really disingenous and scummy to pretend like anyone involved with the logistics of SKG have ever attacked anyone. I know that's on brand for him, and if pushed he could not give proof that SKG had any involvement. It just pisses me of.

Meanwhile Mald is sitting in his dirty pedo-groomer discord dungeon, wringing his greasy fucking hands together, plotting against SKGs success, like he was Gargamel trying to catch the smurfs. "IF WE COMMIT FRAUD THATLL SHOW HIM HURRRR". Talk about cutting your nose off to spite the face.

"all my detractors hate cancel culture but are trying to cancel me with death threats"
I might have missed it by jumping through the highlights and not watching videos, but I believe he has actually been saying something like this. Josh Strife Hayes yesterday started by saying "he (PirateSoftware) is a human, he deserves decency and to feel mentally safe", or something along these lines. So he must have been saying he is getting threatened.
 
He uses GM's IDE for Heartbound. In the case of the former, there's no syntax highlighting and so much refactoring that needs to be done that it gives me a headache. In the case of the latter, it takes him up to 4 minutes to realise his IDE is literally underlining an object he hasn't called or spelt correctly.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that's the IDE of GameMaker, it looks like IntelliJ (I say this because it looks a lot like Android Studio, which is made by JetBrains and I use it for work)
 
Mald's really mad in this clip but the last frame is beatuiful. Some serious Rekieta energy here:
#1 reason I started following this thread. He gave me Rekieta vibes.
I didn't expect SKG to really do this though. I thought it was something people were just ignoring.
Turns out it was just a real slow cook nuclear meltdown.
Thank god Ross addressed it.

@Baldavius Dicktree You know, he actually looks better bald.
I thought he was the guy from Red Letter Media
 
Seriously, I am desperate to see Mald's hypocritical scrambling to defend his community committing borderline legal fraud (at least to most internet normie's minds probably) after all the shit he's constantly said about every other group that goes against him in any way being the ones 'composed of nothing but bad actors'
He ignores it and would probably deny it, saying he and his jannies ban 1 million people a day to foster a wholesome chungus awesome community of awesome people who make things. Which is what he's all about, making things and making the world a better place. Ross's "community" and SKG supporters are super toxic and sending him, his family, and his "staff" (jannies) 1 million death threats a day and trying to cancel him.

Stay frosty.
I might have missed it by jumping through the highlights and not watching videos, but I believe he has actually been saying something like this.
Mald literally said that the people who hate cancel culture are trying to cancel him and he always says he has death threats.
 
Man who can't even support his own game curently in development is against dead games being supported. Like pottery. (Journos please feel free to steal.)
He looks like that boyinaband faggot who diddled some kids. Anyway, I bet Mald diddled some kids, too. Just a matter of time when it all comes to light with a degen of this sort. (Furry, terminally online, psycho.)

I think JSH is probably a stand up guy, and I have liked some of his videos in the past, but I wish he would shut the fuck up already. Instead of coddling some man-child, he could support SKG and help to push it over the finish line so that Mald may actually kill himself.

Won't someone think of the (discord) children?!!

I thought he was the guy from Red Letter Media
lmao

Mald's really mad in this clip but the last frame is beatuiful. Some serious Rekieta energy here:
I love to see that faggot mald. I love seeing him strain against his "heckin good guy with a positive community" grift persona, and seeing his hostile side break through. Maybe im too sentimental right now, but it's really unfortunate that his audience is probably majority children. What a toxic type of behaviour for them to pick up off of him.

Does anyone have an actual count on how many users have been banned by him and his jannies?

I'm really curious, because he's claimed in previous clips it's like hundreds into thousands sometimes whenever he fucks up and people jump all over it.
I do, but I can post it. It exceeds the character limit *sigh*
