I watch this dude sometimes, he says he’s a fulltime game dev but all I see him do is play other games. The game he works on has seen very little progress.
Would be nice if he at least admits he’s a streamer and not a game dev.

No it’s not. It’s sad.

I mean isn’r it a Deltarune ripoff ?
dustyData@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Deltarune didn’t exist yet. It’s an undertale ripoff.
Which is very telling, tobyfox released a whole game on his own. While this " I worked at blizzard, BTW" tool hasn’t with an (allegedly) entire company around him. He’s a grifter, he scams people around him to profit off of other’s work. That’s all he does.

Given that it didn’t exist yet, more like an Undertale rip off

Sounds an awful lot like what YandereDev did when he was still relevant.
burgerpocalyse@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
yanderedev is always relevant

One of the best cautionary tales for developers
DreamlandLividity@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
No joke, YandereDev has been making more progress than Thor on Hartbound.
Randomgal@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
Yeah but did you know he worked at Blizzard?

“game dev” is a way to put it
kadaverin0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
He’s been working on that game for almost a decade now, too.

I’ve also noticed this from watching his stream and the more I learn about the guy the less I like him. He seems to misrepresent and oversell himself quite a bit.
Btw did he tell you about the time he worked at Blizzard, for the millionth time?
JoYo@lemmy.ml 3 weeks ago
The job he got through nepotism?
echodot@feddit.uk 3 weeks ago
He worked at Blizzard in the same way that Apple store employees work for Apple. They do, but not in the capacity that’s been implied.

Are Apple devs even contractually allowed to say that they’re Apple devs? I swear every employee from every other company won’t shut up about it on twitter but you never hear a thing from Apple people. Have I just heen missing them?
echodot@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
I know a few people who used to work for Apple. The reason a lot don’t say it though is because if you do people automatically assume you had something to do with whatever feature they don’t personally like, and you get berated about it.
