I will never return but I will have this.

Would play.

It would be nice if we felt able to talk honestly about things that happened.

Dayum.

I have no idea how you created that narrative in your head, but it's a funhouse I don't wanna visit. Apparently you know my every thought & motivation magically through your psychic powers.

Your rant is verbal masturbation. You're just playing with yourself in public. And your mind is a tiny dick.

Alexa when will we KPDH together?

If you believe all this, why are you talking to me?

Yes. Yes you are. Do you have a clue how weird and antisocial this entire thing is? That every time you double down on continuing this, you're just coming across as more unhinged? And more stupid?

It's a video game for God's sake. Get a grip.

Sir, you have real problems. I don't know who or what you are, but you're profoundly stupid and deeply unsettled. Please go play with fire or dive in a medical waste bin where you belong and leave us all alone. You don't need an extraction shooter. You need a long rest and some perspective.

Jared Petty @pettycommajared.bsky.social · 3d

There is nothing that justifies your behavior as something beyond bizarre and creepy. If you like the game, go back and play it. Why are you even here? You accomplish nothing but showing anybody who chooses to look that you're an absolute clown, a frightening scab, and an ignorant ballsack.

1. You never posted or replied anywhere on Bluesky before this message. Weird & pathetic.
2. You use neurodivergent as a pejorative. Shitty.
3. You know what the creators you mention didn't do? Come find me & whine like a baby about a video game preview 6 months later.

Grow up you big sad baby.

Truly I am the worst.

Jared Petty @pettycommajared.bsky.social · 3d

You literally created an account for this. Crouch down & cry into your own asshole, you complete loser. I can't fathom what's wrong with you. In 16 years of working in games, you're the saddest, most pathetic pea-brained shit nugget I've encountered. You could do anything at all, you chose this.

I didn't review ARC Raiders. I wrote a preview of a game slice. Six months ago. Please go away forever.

"We handed out free loaded guns to everybody and were surprised at what people chose to shoot. Stop signs. Ducks. Cockroaches. Windows. Airplanes. One another. How could we possibly have predicted that people would do that with our guns?"

Altman claims the company didn’t anticipate people not wanting their deepfakes to say “offensive things or things that they find deeply problematic,” which sounds like a lie but is also indicative of how they recklessly release tech into the world.

OpenAI wasn’t expecting Sora’s copyright drama

It felt “more different to images than people expected.”

I'm really tired of making excuses for stupid people.
