Took a dip into GAF to check out the equivalent of this thread and unsurprisingly it only has 20 posts, including this gem:



This is the type of crowd your're courting, CDPR. Shame on you.
It's disgraceful visiting that place seeing what it's devolved to. Almost sickenly predictable this would happen after the collapse and redirection.

This pattern with GOG and CDPR is really upsetting, and their shitty insincere apologies are in no way enough. Especially after the third fucking time!

I still don't get the NPC thing. Like....huh?
it's an alt right meme to make people who don't agree with them matter as much to them as NPCs in a game.

basically i'm sitting here waiting for some dude to go off on a shooting spree because NPCs aren't real people and getting rid of them is justifiable by that logic. whether or not that's the intent of the meme it's bound to happen.

Or the employee was disciplined and it wasn't fixed yet but the mechanism in place protecting employee is protecting them. At my job, and I work for a large ISP you get 4 chances. On the fifth one your out. Granted something so out of touch like that I have no clue how it would be handled. We don't know if it was the same guy, or even if it was an external firm. What CDPR do in the next few days will tell us more.
they already made pretty clear that they won't do a think with their second tweet.

Just another attempt to dehumanize people you don't like/disagree with.

it's an alt right meme to make people who don't agree with them matter as much to them as NPCs in a game.

basically i'm sitting here waiting for some dude to go off on a shooting spree because NPCs aren't real people and getting rid of them is justifiable by that logic. whether or not that's the intent of the meme it's bound to happen.

It's 4chan gamer trash. Basically, the people that made the meme don't see people on the left as actual people.

It's makes shooting up schools easier for them.

Welp now I understand. Thx for the explanations.

They were replying to a trolling bait post.
I was serious with the post. The social media have shown multiple times that they are deep in the alt right BS. Gamergate and now this indicates whoever controls the social media account is incompetent and should not be working there. Now if the social media account holder is reflecting the company pointview on the issue, then fuck them indefinitely.

edit: just saw the response tweet. Yeah, fuck them.
try again

Being LGBT myself (Gay but realized I'm Pan after being with a Trans ftm) it really saddens me how much the Transgender community still has to claw for respect , so many people view them as an afterthought . I'm glad this isn't the case here in this forum.

That's pretty bad but not bad enough for me to not support the game and after how happy their games have made me previously plus the amount of hard work so many people who don't agree with tweets like that have put in. It's pretty tone deaf though and should not have been tweeted out. They should just be staying away from as much of this stuff as possible.

Me neither. Can someone explain it to me? Are they saying they're the Player Character and the people here are NPCs in a RPG? If yes, then that's a whole new level of delusion.

See the last page, but yes, that's exactly it.

They think that they are the PCs who are not pre-programed and are in full control of their actions, while everyone who disagrees with them is an NPC who is pre-programmed (brainwashed) to think and behave in a specific way.

It's ridiculous.

i'd think it was adorable of them if i didn't know some fuck/group of fucks is going to justify violence based on the fact that anyone who disagrees with them are equivalent to npcs in a game.

Was there a reason posted for why it's not acceptable to talk about a very specific individual's behavior and history? Is it because he doesn't use his real name when posting on CDP's social media accounts and posting it here is somehow considered a form of "doxxing?"
yeah it's less that that's direct doxxing and more that it can be used to find out shit about the person

I guess I don't get the difference between this and Daniel Vávra of Warhorse Studios. Both represented their companies while posting dismissive or hateful shit. Is it merely because Vávra was out there publicly showing his face and going by his real name rather than posting behind the guise of a social media account?

i have no idea what the actual reason is but the mods said don't do this last night so i'm just going by what was said.
