“There’s no such thing as bad press” is such a dogshit saying that is demonstrably untrue. There is absolutely bad press, just because we’re talking about it doesn’t mean it’s good for the product. For every one schmuck who thinks they’ll buy Borderlands 4 just to prove how good their computer is, there’s a hundred people who have decided never to buy it at all and half if them have written off gearbox entirely.
This guy is why PR consultants and Social Media teams exist. Some people just should not have contact with the public. However good he might or might not be in his work on the project itself, someone should have told him to sit down and shut up and let someone who knows how not to damage the entire game with a single statement handle the communication.
I dunno, if they were going to frame someone, they’d pick someone who would much more neatly fit their narrative of The Violent Left. The fact that this guy could even possibly be far right is a pretty good sign, I think, that they didn’t pick him to take the fall. That said, “DNA left on the trigger” sure is fishy as hell on it’s own.
Soon they will reveal their latest invention, the Torment Nexus, from the hit Sci Fi novel, Don’t Create the Torment Nexus.
Just waiting for them to push this for public schools only. After all, only “the poors” would send their kids to public schools.
I’m not sure which is worse, that my first thought was “Only nine?” or that my second one was “Four counts as mass?”
Look at the bright side.
At least Republicans are finally upset about a school shooting.
