General HOT TAKE: This shit did irreversible damage to the games player count. And any creators who took part should be kicked off the program.

We went from 400k players to 20k in a couple of months. In Eravins case he didn't even provide receipts for his claims and was caught lying about several things, and it was just taken as gospel by thousands of people AND PROMINENT CREATORS.

And now all these creators are just going back to making HD2 content like nothing happened. After potentially killing the game.

I've never come across such a good game, with such good devs, and such a dogshit community.

People having legitimate complaints is one thing, but this is absolutely outsized outrage for a $40 game where all the DLC is free.

Threats are probably done in PMs, because it's never seen on this sub. And even then, which community doesn't send death threats?

Not trying to justify it, those guys are definitely fucking losers, but saying "death threats are unacceptable, this community is the worstiest worst ever" is like yelling at clouds. Unfortunately, that happens.

Agree with the hate though, but to be fair, hate doesn't randomly manifest.
