I don’t know about developing, but he’s certainly involved in a live service-ish game called Rivals of Aether 2 as “Directory of Strategy”, whatever the hell that is. His name is listed in the game’s credits (video). He comes up at around 01:57 mark. Really bums me out too, because I like that game :(

Yeah that’s the one. It’s sad that people take what guys like this say at face value. He’s obviously got ulterior motives (own live service game in the works and/or paid by industry) to oppose regulation that would only benefit game enthusiasts.

Been kinda disappointed with Pirate software recently. He positioned himself as super knowledgeable but then makes mistakes. Of course, everyone makes mistakes, but then he kinda just doubles down when he shouldn’t sometimes.
My guess is that because he became quite popular quickly, he jumped into just pumping out content as fast as possible without giving himself time to properly research and investigate stuff.
