Fuck that guy.
Yeah, I had the exact same thought when I saw this thread.
mods of the official discord have decided to block any discussion about it and ban or mute anyone mentioning it.
Wow lol :D I guess now we know the company's opinion on the matter then.
Regarding the population as a whole, it sounds dissonant, but from my perception it sounds reasonably average in gamers. This courageous and later fearful behavior is very common in the corners of the Internet that talk about games. It is something I discuss a lot with close friends about the behavior of racists, how brave they are only under anonymity or with the use of other people's strength. When confronted in the real world, they tend to flee, deny or claim it was all a joke.
Im just super happy the indie collective I ended up being in (or at least I like to think I am) absolutely is not fine with this shit. #indieworldorder you guys and girls are alright :)
What makes sense if it's true. This behavior resonates very well with the gamer community, especially the most dedicated and hardcore. Sometimes we are surprised by behaviors that seem to be the exception, but are the rule in certain groups. Since the gamer gate the pandora box has opened.
yes..impossible to have a discussion about the issue

Reminds le about what happened for another game months ago.

That Joker tattoo lmao
We really are living in a society.
Finnish and a lawyer
It was a request to start it, but due it to happen inside parliament during parliament's working hours, it needs the approval of the parliament, which won't happen because Finns party is going to block it during the vote. Other notable parliament member cases are f.ex. Päivi Räsänen (lol).
For people wondering, during past few years (2015-2018) there has been only 4 cases where people got actual jailtime for this, and average jailtime was 1 month. If this would really go to court, he would get out with just fines. Around 300-700€ would be my estimate based on the averages, but it's completely dependant on his income.
That's a good question. Let's see what we can find out:
Huh, so could this possibly be a take so bad that you go from being a CEO of a gaming studio to being in prison?
Sometimes social media can be a blessing when these kind of people just out themselves. Hopefully this will come back and hurt him like hell. However since we're talking gamer culture I wouldn't be surprised is this actually boosted their sales because of "muh free speech".

Sick tats bro. In light of what happened in Germany the other day, this guy belongs in the fucking bin. No excuse for this anywhere in the world
And I feel that this behavior resonates positively with most gamers. How fast these threads are subjects die shows how conniving silence is the norm. Unfortunately our hobby is mostly made up of racists. Be explicit like that boy or implicit like everyone who does not express indignation and repudiation.
Ah, gaming:
Incel white male developers making money from Incel white male gatekeepers.
That was quite the read.

He's the the result of our society. That this kind of vicious hatred could be born here is horrifying (I know there are plenty of racist but this guy sounds deranged on a whole other level)
The guys who grew up in the environment that was cultivated around video games are now making their own video games.
"Gamer culture" created these pieces if shit.

From what I understand, Finland has stricter hate speech laws than US. Even "subtle" "we should do something to all these pesky black people" type speech can be punishable, if it implies people should take action into their own hands. Trump would probably have committed tons of hate speech crimes (there are politicians who have been condemned, though not any jail time IIRC)
Racists in Europe are having a tough time keeping their mask on these days. Fuck this dude and everyone like him.
Damn. Dude is straight up a terrible person. I hate to see stuff like this, because the development team may not share the same ideas, but the guy in charge can make the entire company look terrible.
Something something the views expressed by xyz are not reflective our company values something something our company comprises of people from a diverse background something something we believe diversity and its creativity potential.
Yea I was looking for this too, this should definitely be taken to authorities by someone.
Never heard of him, hope he faces consequences.
The sheer randomness of it all. Like he got out of bed one morning and thought "what a fine day to commit career suicide to own the SJWs!"
Fuck him! Wanted all the smoke than ran away when shit got real; thank goodness I never heard of this shit stain and own none of the games he's made.

Fucking monster.
So is there a humane resource yet for avoiding devs/pubs who are pieces of shit? These days, there are more and more indies (a good thing) but that makes it harder to make the average consumer aware of horrid folks like this bigot.
I feel like there should be a quick, easy, ubiquitous resource for documenting bigoted devs/pubs for consumers who aren't glued to communities like Era.

Don't know how this company is operated, if it can just dump the CEO, but it really ought to try to get rid of this gross, deranged fucko ASAP.
Apparently they're just three people, with only two of them working full time and as game developers. Those two have worked together for probably at least 8 years. I would wager that he will remain in his position and they'll hope this blows over and leads to increased sales.
I doubt this will hurt sales. People who've never heard of them or their games before are now aware, and if anything this attention is bound to get them sales from other racist assholes. Business relations though...I think they could run into problems there. This racist extremist shitbag ought to get shunned out of the industry.

Another studio I won't buy games from. Ohhh well. Hate speech is not cool and should not be protected. When you are advocating violence you are a piece of shit.
I was wondering why I already had Hero Siege on IGNORE on my Steam account. It was probably because of that thread.Also, friends, we've known that this guy is a trash person for literally years:
Panic Art Studios founder apologises for saying "Women don't have the nerves to be a CEO"

Where are the sunglasses goddammit.He looks like an edge lord meme
