[CENSORED] JonTron removed from Yooka-Laylee -

[Puppet Pal Clem]

Following his "debate" with some autistic guy, JonTron is now a "nazi", and they removed him from the video game Yooka-Laylee.

Fuck this gay earth, I want my mediocre youtube shit in my mediocre video game shit.
For real though, why we gotta allow this? He's obviously not spouting hatred.

Destiny seems like a sperg. Might be worth investigating.

He has a thread here.

Jon actually seems to be taking this pretty well honestly.

It's a bit of a shame that a completely unrelated problem can get him cut from the game. Though, I didn't even know he was going to have any appearance in the game to begin with.

I can't blame the devs for dropping his voice acting to avoid their game stirring controversy.

 

[timecop]

he was gonna be in that game?

As a voice actor for some rando character.
He basically sucked Grant Kirkhope's dick back on GameGrumps, and I'm sure Playtonic were glad for the free publicity with his fanbase.

Well that's... unfortunate I guess.

Except now they created a chargeback fiasco. The steam page and their website boards are being rammed with threads decrying the situation. THEIR RESPONSE WAS TO BAN ANYONE, ANYONE that asked for a refund.

These numbskulls took it a step further, and began hurling insults back at their fans and even Jon Tron himself after that. But hey, I cannot really completely spell out how fucking exceptional these people were in handling this PR crisis.

Let Jim explain it for ya.

Fuck this game.

Them dropping him will create an even bigger one, now they look like they pander to SJW's which always results in blow back (deserved or not).

I didn't even know he was in the game until I heard this news and I doubt most people who were going to buy the game did either. They should have just let it fly under the radar.

It's pretty stupid for these SJWs to keep pissing in the wind; basically SJWism is dying, web 2.0 and social media killed it, since no one wants to be lectured by some out-of-touch Hollywood hipster about why they should feel guilty for being white or yada yada, people might've 'tolerated' it back when mainstream corporate film and TV was the only game in town, but no one liked it.

And in pretty much every day-to-day life situation, SJWs are perceived about as "cool" as the kids from Jesus Camp, and if anything the so-called "Nazis" are the new hip, trendy game in town, much as the "progressive" thing was back in the 1960s counter-culture, but is about as cool today as the "swing music" that 1950s kids danced to is.

The SJWs should just die off with dignity, instead of basically emulating the same attitude as that of the old "m0ral panic" religious folks who thought that Dungeons and Dragons was a gateway to Satanism and all that; that's how they're perceived by normal people today with a social life outside of Tumblr or "BronyCon".

Lol good. Jontron is a fat faggot

Hey, that's cool, but I'm more upset with how shitty they've been toward people requesting their money back.

Also a note on that last image, perhaps they don't have to. But if they do not refund the money from people upset by the decision they made, then they are phonies for faking being concerned with profiting from a 'bigots' dollar. Ethically, it goes against the consumer's right to deny them this option and makes them look fairly shady.

Plus, they can just charge back if they wanted too. A bank will side with the customer.

who cares that much about this though

 

[Optimus Prime]

who cares that much about this though

Remember Mighty No. 9?

We know now that among the many, many, many problems that shitshow had, Dina was a critical failure point who was revealed to be actively working SJW tendrils into the project. The fallout from MN9's shitshow is what set the stage for the entire Gamergate scenario.

We don't want GG 2.0 happening but this could be a prelude to it. In which case, we could get far more delicious lolcow salt like last time.

Lol no I don't play video games

Looks like it might be a good thing that JonTron isn't in the game:

I was going to write an autistic rant about how they dropped JonTron, but seriously Yooka-Laylee is reeking of cynical nostalgia cash grab at this point.

i have written a program that can predict the contents of your autistic rant with 99% accuracy and summarize it in a 14 second clip, here's what it put out


you're welcome

Steamspy numbers seem to indicate that the number of owners of Yooka-Laylee has gone down from 8000 to 5000

Steam refunds, perhaps?

They also banned people on the Steam forums asking about refunds:
