>That's why we were totally unprepared for the attention we got from the broader gaming/internet community, which was fueled by a deep misunderstanding of the tongue-in-cheek tone as condescending and patronising
>deep misunderstanding of the tongue-in-cheek tone

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

>We were only pretending to be retarded

what kind of game is this anyway? looks pretty faggy to me

>devs behave like assholes
>people respond and tell them they behaved like assholes
>a minority of responders take things too far and start threatening and shit
>WHY ARE GAMERS TOXIC ASSHOLES????
Every
Fucking
Time

>racist abuse
>both devs are white
How does that even happen?

IT WAS JUST A PRANK BRO

This is advertising in 2019.

>talking about the video game
>on Yea Forums

It's gay animal crossing or something

I mean they make an announcement baiting for harassment and they got it, amazing. Why is this a story? If you don't respect other people why would they respect you?

Racist abuse? Aren't they white?

I can't help it, I'm DAMAGED

Exactly. Everyone else on the planet don't give them a shit, but can be easily turned to free PR.

I've gotten death threats over minor differences in grammar preference when translating Japanese porn
I've gotten death threats over kicking someone's ass in TF2
I've gotten death threats over petty forum arguments
Sounds like these losers need thicker skin. Death threats on the internet are just another way of saying 'I vehemently disagree with your opinion', and are not to be taken seriously in the slightest.

I do believe because there are people who love the reaction and articles like these boosts their ego even more.

Honestly, how can anyone browse the Internet today an unironically doubt that people make threats online?

They know all that, they have just turned it into a marketing tactic.

>absolutely nobody cared at all about this game before
>suddenly on EGS and now people pretend they wanted it enough to send death threats

Why are gamers so mentally ill?
