In a long Resetera post titled "Why are gamers so eager to trust and even forgive the snake oil salesmen?", Malher particularly targeted industry veteran Peter Molyneux, No Man's Sky developer Sean Murray, and Cyberpunk 2077 studio CD Projekt Red.
He accused them of "lies and deception," selling features that don't exist and, by overhyping their games, making fools of players. He also criticised journalists for "happily [playing] along, each and every single time."
He then attacked Sean Murray, saying that Hello Games' MD seemed to have "learned straight from the Peter Molyneux handbook" and that he "apparently [loved] the spotlight." Malher argued that, at launch, No Man's Sky was "nothing like what Murray hyped it up to be." He also called out his industry peers for forgiving Hello Games after the studio released updates to introduce missing features.
