It is funny how the edgelords all rallied around Bubbles when the guy himself is an anti-Trump, refugee-welcoming Deutschcuck.

Wait, weren't you hated here as an SJW once, or do I have false memories? Can someone update me on my Roguey-lore?

Roguey goes through phases...

I think the number of people ignoring me around this time last year was in the single digits. Becoming Lesifoere and Josh Sawyer is a winning combination if you want to frustrate a lot of people in a short amount of time. I don't know if it's enough to beat hiver though; eight more seems so far away. This is a pointless thread, but I'm just so thrilled to have finally made it. :D

Roguey was/is a sleeper agent*, and it is only a matter of time before his great and terrible masters reorient him to the next goal for their horrid cause. His words are always detached from his personal feelings, because he has none, only a mission to achieve.

Also, Bubbles being an SA goon is very unfortunate but he provided good content. Still, his willingness to do shitty things is p reprehensible. I'd still take him over PJ.

Don't know about private staff talks, but I never once noticed him being asinine or preachy towards non liberals around here.
His jokes were a bit repetitive (random AAA game that provokes negative reaction among codexers - "guess we'll have to cover/review this") but that's about it. Only thing about him that came close to annoying me was him behaving like he was genuinely happy with low sales and nonexistent media reception of SitS, but that's about the worst thing I can think of.

Are there really any indications that politics played major role in his departure, or are usual suspects trying to make it look so as it suits their "this forum is toxic, something needs to change" agenda... something that him leaving primarily due to altercation with a member who himself subscribe to far left views doesn't.

He was right, the jew was at fault, a few cucks bought tyranny because of the glowing review. Im not saying this site should have super high journalistic standards or some crap. Im saying it should stop lying and shilling to people that dont know any better to gain the favor of developers, and that was exactly was bubbelz was saying as well.

How is "This has some of the worst core gameplay I've ever experienced in a RPG, but the reactivity is well-done" a glowing review?

You clearly havent played Tyranny.

The review gives examples of what kind of reactivity you can experience. It's up to the reader to decide if that qualifies as well-done to them.

Theres no real reactivity in the game, the world doesnt react to your actions, you just experience consequences for the path you chose.
You cant suddenly attack a random asshole and get a whole faction to hate you, you have to go out of your way to find the dialogue option that allows you to do so.
Tho at this point i guess im arguing semantics.
He also compared it to AoD, when the depth of choices and consequences in AoD, when the truth is, it isnt even close. He also claimed in has the makins of a classic, and while it is a matter of opinion, i cant believe anyone would think this game will be remembered by this time next year.

I privately asked Bee for my ejection on Monday and expect it to go through at some point in the near future. The decision has been well-considered, as far I can judge that myself. I do not plan to return to these forums in any capacity, and I think I'll be able to stick to that. I won't post about RPGs anywhere else, and I won't publish content anywhere else. I apologize to everybody I have hurt or offended.

My remaining Gamescom+GDC content will be delivered to Bee unless she objects. It will consist of pure transcripts, without any commentary. The commentary should be left to those who are still part of the site.

Come on man, that's needlessly extreme. If there are things on this forum that disturb you, then we can find a way to keep those things away from you and still let you do the stuff you're great at. Even if it means leaving the forum almost entirely - look at TNO, he came out of nowhere after years of absence and gave us a DX: MD review. That's good too. I mean, if you'd never had access to the Content forums and never saw what was behind the curtain, would any of this had happened? Find out what works for you and do it.

What the fuck are you guys doing in the Content Section? Hazing? Mass orgies? Forced memes?

Anyway, Bubbles was the funniest guy who has ever wrote content for this website, so I'm just going to blindly assume you faggots were up to some real degeneracy.

The problem is more what we weren't up to. See DarkUnderlord's posts ITT.

Do I really have to play... say, Dragon Age 2 to know that it's a steaming, stinking pile of shit!? Of course not! I mean, that's a known fact.
So Bubbles is really kinda wrong about this issue... I think if someone saw the gameplay videos or read a bunch of reviews or whatever, it can be enough to know something about a game and form opinion about it. You don't necessarily even have to play it, let alone finish the game... Look, I'm not saying you can review the game without playing it, hell no. But to say something about it, fuck yeah!

That said, I think Bubbles was great contributor to the site, sure gonna miss him, one of the most HQ members here... But fuck it, show must go on and Codex is greater then any one of us and it will go on, with or without Bubbles...
