PirateSoftware has lost 130k subscribers in the past 30 days. He's been losing 10k a day for almost 2 weeks straight now.
FAFO at its finest.
@BeAware@mementomori.social Is this more problems or the Wow hardcore issue? I’ve been out a while.

@424dfd7d14ce48e3881f7b49793b14 and he doesn't deserve any of it. The dude is a narcissistic asshole.

oooo, never heard of him, but love a good fall from grace story - what's the drama?
@tezoatlipoca @BeAware TL;DR he ragged on his own personal misrepresentation of Stop Killing Games, then doubled down hard when his errors were pointed out. Which drew attention to his 50 shades of unrelated fuckwittery.

I do not get it. Is this guy called "PirateSoftware" against pirating software?
Edit: I see, is a indie game developer. What a bad name he has.

wow, ok. How can you be a big video game influencer and come anywhere close to the industry's stance on that? Its an initiative that just says "hey, when you don't want to support the game officially, put in place an open source EOL plan so the games aren't bricks."
yeah, ok, no wonder this guy is getting cancelled.

@tezoatlipoca it's a LOT, but basically he's a former QA at blizzard that left to "develop his own game". His dad was the cinematic director for blizzard for 30+ years. Any kind of amazing cinematic you saw from blizzard from like 1992-2020 was done by his dad.
All of that kinda made him famous and he's been doing lots of sus things recently.
The first was in a highly public WoW streaming group where he "roached out" when his group was having issues with a boss.
Instead of apologizing to everyone that lost their characters, he quadrupled down and quit playing wow.
Now recently, there's been an EU initiative called Stop killing games, which basically says that devs should have an end of life plan for online games that eventually get the servers shut down because of low player count. If they were required to release server files so players could continue to run the games themselves once the company can no longer do it.
PirateSoftware, a game "dev", very vehemently denounced the initiative as HORRIBLE and it could "eat his entire ass" and has quadrupled down on that as well.
Therefore, people started deep diving into his background and found out that basically he's a narcissistic liar. He wasnt a game dev at blizzard like he previously claimed. In fact, he's self taught and his code is VERY bad.
Those revelations along with continuing to throw hate at the initiative has caused the initiative to gain the amount of signatures it needed to move forward, along with millions of people hating on this dude for his behavior.
Well deserved.
This doesn't do it all justice, I suggest watching a YouTube video into the drama. Just search "Stop Killing Games PirateSoftware drama"

I didn't even know who this idiot was until he decided to open his mouth and say some dumbass shit. Every time I hear about him it is something dumber than the last time he decided to open his mouth.
How does this dipshit have any sort of following? I'm truly baffled.
