I will offer 3 examples to start this thread:
1.On an individual level, I regret that Doug Tennapel is a right-wing, Trumpist, homophobic asshole, because The Neverhood is an awesome game, a real dada masterpiece, and I would prefer if its creator didn't totally suck.
2. Another individual example: John Carmack has done amazing work in game engines and the whole middleware scene is pretty much built on the foundation that he laid at id. Unfortunately, his politics are about the most stereotypical reactionary tech-bro shit imaginable.
3. On a company level, there is Nintendo with its union-busting activities, attack-dog behavior toward copyright infringement, and possible (probable?) yakuza ties. But Mario! Zelda!
What are your problematic faves?
