Shoutouts to Justin who took one for the team, read the Twitter feed, and then felt that none of us deserved to go through what he did and gave us a bunny instead
Not gonna lie. When I saw the title, my first thought was, "Wait, Digital Homicide is back at it again? I guess some people are just that committed to never learning their lessons. Have at them again, Sterling, for my popcorn is ready." Well, whether or not it was Digital Homicide, this was no less entertaining. Thank you for you, Sterling.
This developer feels like a character out of an RPG leaving behind insane diary entrees for you to read as you progress through the game, and you can slowly piece together the story of what happened to him as you see how specific he gets with his ramblings.
“Don’t let random strangers tell you how to live your life! Now listen to me, a random stranger on the internet create a hidden (so macho) manifesto detailing how you should live your life!” The guy doesn’t even see the irony in his own ramblings.
Steph actually puts herself out there, and this dev uses a screen name. Steph is no random stranger, but he is. So it's double irony. Twice the hypocrisy.
No one goes on a rant about “E-Girls” that long, unprovoked unless they’ve pumped a few out themselves and are trying to project their prudish shame and then faux-righteous anger out at others.
In my experience, men breathing fire and brimstone against e-girls are, to a man, people whose personalities are so awful that they could be endowed with the bodies of Greek gods but still be surrounded with a woman-repelling field 100m wide.
It's hella funny Domina's dev rant about being banned, but the dude ban anyone in the community hub who said anything bad against his game anyway. Peak "boo hoo free speech, but only for me" typa psychopath.
@@makeitthrough_ Because i was amazed that no one even mentioned it. It being the polar opposite of what he's raging about but since you seem to care about me commenting this so much feel free to tell me why no one seems to care.
@@Quintessence4444 opposite? im not sure if he actually hates powerful women or not. do you guys remember the harry potter writer? she's transphobic but doesn't hate women unless they were born as men.
That stock footage of a guy angrily punching his laptop in a bath of rose petals before throwing it in the water in disgust is the life I dream to live.
You kinda have to wonder how the heck they even come up with all those weirdly specific stock footage things. Is everyone involved just told to make a bunch of random stock footage and they just go nuts with ideas or something?
Honestly: Step 1, get a tripod or camera operator. Step 2, have a weird idea, the more out there the better. Step 3, record it. Step 4, upload it to a stock footage site of your choice. Step 5, price it properly. Step 6, repeat from step 2 ad nauseum, most won't earn you much but it's a long tail style deal, the more you upload the more money will trickle in over time. Original stuff ensures you'll get that sale compared to someone that might have a better setup, you can do "business man holding his thumb up" if you like, but you'll be competing against so so many other creators you'll be lucky if someone even sees your version before they bought one for their project. Perhaps also get a fiverr account and setup a few promotional pages with a request form, though chances are they will take more time than you make money from.
"Don't let others tell you how to live." Says the guy literally telling others how to live, back in the day that kind of behaviour would be low level trolling but these days self awareness is completely lacking with these clowns so he's probably %100 serious. He's also very specific about the kind of adult entertainment he hates. Just an observation.
Came here to post that exact thing about a stranger on the internet telling people not to listen to strangers on the internet. So much Irony in that statement, you could build the Eiffel Tower out of sarcasm.
That's typical of people with right-wing beliefs. They go on and on and on about shit like "freedom of choice" and in the same breath tell you exactly how you should live your life. The lack of self-awareness is honestly stunning sometimes.
As someone who bought Domina on the year of launch and had to watch Nicky-boy's absurd long-term tantrum play out in real time, I can't tell you how satisfying it is to finally see his bigoted dudebro bullshit reach outside of the Steam forums and mostly be met with folks correctly treating him like a joke, instead of the countercurrent intellectual he thinks he is.
This is like when you see a sign at a place that's like "No (most ridiculous thing you've ever heard) allowed" and you just have to think "what the hell did someone do?".
And the sad part is there are people out there who will flout it just because they hate being told what to do by anyone. Reminds me of a story about a certain donkey going over a cliff.
It's like when you read warning labels that say "hot coffee is hot" and "do not attempt to stop chainsaw with bare hands" and realize that, yes, someone WAS that dumb.
@@NeoTiamat The chainsaw one was eye rolling, yes. Too many impressionable kids watching that Chuck Norris clip where he stops a chainsaw and try to do it themselves. But the coffee one actually has a story behind it. The store was selling coffee hot enough to cause _third degree burns_ to skin, that's just irresponsible
Think his need to obsess over hard male bodies covered in red jam is a bigger tell than his hate of camgirls. Bet he's a corpulent boy who hates oysters too. -am referencing the movie spartacus at the end-
Ah yes, the banned for an opinion excuse. It isn't at all that patch notes are meant to tell customers what a patch contains and not some sort of message board. Once again, somebody whines about free speech while ignoring where it doesn't apply.
"I was banned for having an opinion!" says the guy that bans anyone on the forums for his game for... having a differing opinion. There was a saying that went something like, "I find that when people complain about the whip, those who are loudest are often not complaining that the whip is being used as much as that it isn't in their hand."
It's also worth noting that this developer has had his developer twitter account banned for the same stuff, and has also been banned from BANDCAMP of all things. I have to wonder just what kind of shit he's had to do to get banned from bandcamp because that's a special kind of achievement
His personal verified twitter account is gone now, and he's back to being transphobic over on the steam community forums again. Which will just have the same result.
I found myself somewhat unsurprised to find out the Domina dev was a tad unhinged .. i remember watching streamers play it and when the gladiator stable running roman noble woman your playing gets murdered there would be a little message along the lines of 'Roman society is a mans world and a mere woman was never gonna make it' kind of message which made me go Hmmmmm.
@@jlev1028 Does that count as female empowerment when they're being forced to fight to the death? Even if they're fighting men and regularly winning, they're still slaves.
@@CleopatraKing Yep. We don't see much about them in the history books because the roman ideal was for women to work behind the scenes, not in public. In that sense it could be called "a man's world", as it would have been considered improper for a woman to be the public face of an enterprise, but it's still a daft statement because there are solid records of roman women running entire business empires or political factions for decades and doing quite well in spite of that social stigma.
Same. What's crazy too is I was thinking of playing it again like a week or 2 ago, since I hadn't touched the game in a couple years and remembered enjoying it. Then I saw this shit storm and thought I must have missed something back then, only to find this looks like a relatively new development
I'm happy I pirated it originally when it came out. I put it on my wishlist, intending to eventually buy it once I got some money, since I was in college at the time, but hey I never have to now.
It was very close to a game I would love, I just needed more control and idea of what stats do. The gladiator management genre could really use some more entries.
I did literally say out loud, "Thank God, a bunny," before even reading the caption for the adorable bunny in basket. On the positive side, I am even more inspired now to finish and polish my own game ideas.
"Instead of spending that energy learning how to weld" That one caught me so off guard that I thought I was gonna have to go to the hospital from laughing.
The weird things is between all his hateful and maniacal lines, he has some kind of uplifting message going on. Instead of wasting your life away, you should do something productive. It's a shame he has to spread macho alpha male BS and QAnon nonsense.
@@afaxmachine5045 Can we go back to the railroads? At least there's room for legs in there, planes feel like soon enough we'll be envious of double leg-amputees for being able to remove their legs to fit in them and/or a sudden influx of Cirque Du Soleil contortionists.
Oh God, it's THIS guy! I've heard of this guy and his weirdly political "patch notes" that sound more like angry ranting. I'm surprised, and yet not surprised, to hear he got worse. Much worse.
gonna be honest, i played a fair bit of domina and i tought it was great, but i never bothered to read a patch or look into the dude who made the game or participate in its community, so i had no idea what an asshole he is.
@Andrew Somethin' More like the Typical Manosphere Enjoyer. (which is pretty much a western patriarchy phenomenon, but it's like squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares.)
These are some of my favourite stories to hear in the Jimquisition. The Romine bros/Digital Homicide, Gilson B. Pontes etc. They remind that there is at least SOME justice in the world. And watching shitheads get what's coming to them is a just lovely feeling.
Could I kindly ask you to stop referring to his activities as "making" and "games"? You're really being quite insulting to actual game developers you know…
The worst part is this guy is also known as bignic. He made an amazing album of techno music called Corporate Lifestyle Simulator. He was featured in Lethal League and did a damn good job for Christ sake! How can someone drop to such sad depths? It's a depressing mystery...
I loved this game when it came out, even reinstalled it to try to get the good ending. The guy's obviously got talent, but as a Christian, ya he's really adding to the whole hypocrite stereotype. I mean seriously, this is the reason we're labeled "Jesus freaks"
"combines the self awareness of Digital Homicide with the charm and social grace of cholera" Working on a spectacular new finishing move, are we Steph? Good on yah, and thank god for you!
The last time a decent Steam game’s patch notes were this disappointing, they added NFT’s into an otherwise decent, “don’t give Blizzard your money” Hearthstone replacement
I get the feeling this won’t be the last time that we hear about this bizarre little developer on this show. This sounds like someone in it for the long haul of being a clown that we can periodically check in with and laugh and cringe at whatever nonsense they get up to.
The idea that you can't learn another language if you spend time looking at porn is absurd. If anything, there's an incentive to learn because knowing other languages opens up doors to a whole new worlds of smut that you'd never stumble across if you only spoke English. Uh, or so I've heard...
I'm living proof that you can learn how to weld, grow an potato, learn another language, and program a computer and still whack it to e-girls. Hell, I can do all of the above while smoking a joint.
Damn, it feels good to see Steph just raking deranged, self-centred devs across the coals again. Getting the studio really seems to have put the wind back in your sails!
@@keppakappa5033 I only know who Jim Sterling is....been watching waaaay before the transition..and I have friends who transitioned but still call them by the name I first met them as.
Before he fell ass first into the conspiracy theory rabbit hole, this dev frequented the same twitch stream as me and never spouted any of this bigoted crap. I don't know exactly what on this world wide web radicalised him, but he really should have taken his own advice and not listened to random strangers on the internet...
Sounds like he dipped his toes in some Jordan B Peterson alpha male stuff, matched with a tinge of QAnon. I know a few young men who have made the mistake to listen to Dr. Peterson, and it's a deep rabbit hole to fall into. All of those I refer to has become angry and afraid. Angry on society and women; afraid of everything, including vaccines.
I know you get accused a lot of things "not being news" whatever that means. But watching this, getting exposed to this actual invertebrate, and laughing the whole time. I can definitively say this is the news I subscribed for.
@@surft Lord of the Rings AND Zero Wing, believe it or not. As in 'All Your Base Are Belong To Us'. Why on earth they wanted to own an old company who's mostly just rd-releasing their old retro titles, I have no earthly idea.
Seeing a guy throw in an (incredibly weird) anti-mask rant in the middle of patch notes for his game was not something I was expecting to see this morning. Really, it's the phrasing of it that really blows me away. Edit: his rant on OnlyFans and PornHub REALLY got me, though, holy shit.
Prudes' thought process: "Crap, I looked at porn again. Goin' to hell now. Need to go rant angrily at people to save them from hell with my very convincing hostile ranting and then maybe I won't go to hell either!"
The welding and potato part are stuck in my mind. I've done both and am actually a bit ticked he thought you can't crank one out at those times. Either taking hard work and makes you a man is also offensive, but mostly the crank yank stuff. ;)
Between the downright nostalgic choice of topic today and the glee in your voice reading the phrase "succubus tiddy", this gave me a good smile today - thanks again, Sterling!
I legit thought this was about Digital Homicide at first. Holy hell, when a dev like that overshadows another dev that literally tried to take you to court with their sitcom-level of batshit-insane defenses for an equally batshit-insane ever-fluctuating amount of money and got all their games kicked the fuck off of Steam itself, that’s some overachieving right there. This video put me in a good mood. Thank you for brightening my Monday.
I just don't understand how a person can be so hateful and lack any shred of human decency. It's not hard to be a decent person. It's super easy actually, barely an inconvenience.
@@crowdemon_archives he was pretty normal except that he loved and hated everything with much more intensity. His love for his people grew so much from the praise he received and it became so great that he wanted to give the whole world to them, and at the same time, anyone who opposed him was seen as someone wicked who wanted to take away the sovereignty of his people. Hitler was an anomaly, but he was not unique.
I love it when insecure, overly masculine guys end up accidentally being suspiciously homoerotic. The dude can’t stop talking about male genitalia to save his life.
It’s always those who yell the loudest about how anti gay/porn/ enter sexual lifestyle here always end up being secretly exactly those things in the most toxic way possible.
It's part of the bro culture where one has to engage in homoerotic experiences just to show to themselves and others how much they're disgusted by it. Not solidifies your straightness then being disgusted with giving a blowjob to them.
"Story events contain mature themes that invite the player to make ethical decisions with regards: slavery, injustice, *and occasionally normal and abnormal human sexuality.*" That's in his game's description.....
oh wow it's the domina guy i assumed he'd crawled back into his little hole after humiliating himself in his patch notes like this guy is running into the same problem as streamers who are abusive to their audiences, he's being rude to steam's customers and that's the true cardinal sin
I knew it was him, I bought this game, got bored of it quick but thought it was "okay", the face diaper remark told me he was trash a while ago, didn't foresee him going full craycray but I should have.
To be fair, Steam forums are a mess. People post stuff like "hope you take a short walk on the long plank", and nothing's being done. Yup. People tell others to go do harm to themselves, and that stays up, but "politics" gets purged fairly quickly. Sure, depends from game to game, but in general it's pretty bad. Only when stuff gets really bad will Steam mods step in, but then it turns into a ban hammer whack-a-mole and people get hit for silly things. Steam needs to get their stuff together. And "freedom of speech" is the least of the issues on Steam forums xD
@Waclaw83 Honestly the "long walk" insult is hardly the end of the world. I'm not gonna support genuine and targeted abuse of course but if you can't weather this kind of generic comment then you need to question whether the Internet is really the place for you.
My favorite part is the implication that you should be studying how to "grow a potato". Not how to grow potatoes, but specifically how to grow a singular potato.
Reminds me of a guy I'm forced to work with. I do commercial property management and when doing discussions about some renovation he felt the need to add a right wing political manifesto to the bottom of an otherwise completely normal work e-mail. Been doing it on and off for a year straight now. Pretty much all the highlights have been discussed like anti-mask shit, abortion stuff, covid conspiracies, random crap about the liberals (I live in Canada) taking over the country etc. My favorite and the most revealing ones are his most recent where he seems deathly afraid that communists are coming to kill the rich and how the rich need to arm themselves for the coming war. Just a man deathly afraid someone might take his things. Again, all of this random crap at the bottom of normal work e-mails. Yes, we've told him to stop and he hasn't. No, we can't stop working with him as it's not up to us as he's a big client who pays on time. We've just opted to ignore it because it's all we can do.
I hear the words "war between communists and the rich" and I imagine a slap fight between a dozen people in a parking lot because there just ain't that many of either.
@@customsongmaker ...in Canada, where this fearful rich guy lives? I'm not joking about Joseph Stalin or what China's doing to the Uighers. I'm joking about the absurdity of somebody having that fear *in Canada*, where the communists have 0.5% of the vote and no institutional power.
@@dylanschmidt9056 Fidel Castro's son runs the entire country, so yes the communists have taken over. Trudeau said he had great respect and admiration for Castro, which means he intends to run Canada just like his father ran Cuba.
When you get a moderator from a large corporation to take the time and write a paragraph explaining what it is you're doing wrong instead of some boilerplate letter, that's when you know you truly done bad.
I remember interacting with this clod on Twitter. He tried to shout me down since I was a minor account but the rest of the thread leapt to my defense and I scored a solid ratio before he blocked me.
“Being fat…” Hey Steph, I just wanna say I’m proud of how far you’ve come on the multiple journeys you are on. The weight you’ve lost. And getting on HRT. I uhh…. Finally made that call. I’m going in on Oct to start too ^^; Thank you.
Just a random person, but wanted to wish you luck on your journey. Seeing Steph come out as non-binary in 2020 helped me a ton on my own journey, so thank god for them and their amazing content!
The dev fell in love with a trans woman,but when he found out she was trans his Daily Mail training kicked in like a sleeper agent. He doesn't feel like a "real man" any more and must do everything in his power to prove he is.
I think it's more likely he got rejected THEN found out she was trans and thought "Ah yea that's the reason. Burn them like witches and you know ect. *read patch notes*"
You forgot that he was banned from Bandcamp of all things too, admitted it himself in his #1 pinned discussions post. THAT is a fuckin achievement. he also keeps posting a weird link to an mp3 file under his rants and comments
I am surprised that this developper could code. I tought that those "alpha" were uncreative and incapable. Or this is juste the proof that a 1000 monkeys could all write Shakespeare with enough time.
That's a bias right there. Just because he's a nutso when it comes to politics and gender in general doesn't mean he's stupid or unskilled at programming. Reducing those with differing opinions, however monstrous or uninformed they may be, to merely being "stupid" is akin to setting oneself up for failure when faced with the fact that skill and politics are not tied to each other in any way. To put it another way, one's opinions doesn't inform one's skill or knowledge, it simply speaks about the way in which they interpret the information they have access to. The ability to design and program a game is completely unbound from one's outlook on life, society and politics. What that game contains on the other hand, may be intrinsically tied to how they view the world around them. On that note, isn't it odd that this dude is all about "cowards, liars" and "grow some backbone" "take responsibility" yet he's not putting these political statements in the game itself, he's putting them in the patch notes? Makes it really hard to take him seriously, even more so than the bullshit he's actually saying.
@@vetreas366 Dude I was making a joke. I know he has some competences. Except in public speaking and PR. And with what he write in his patch note, his game will have not sell if he put his ideas directly in the game. Like his story will be a mess, but without the deep and maniac charisma of a Kojima game.
Just saw the trailer. It wasn't creative and then I felt like it was a graphical overhaul of Newgrounds games we played decades ago, so guess your assumption is safe.
Putting his screeds in the patch notes feels like he so desperately needs to be heard but is too scared to just say it out right in his art because he still wants money from the same folks that he hates. Pathetic.
9:45 While you make a fair point about wondering how sincere this guy's actually being, it's also worth noting that Poe's Law is a thing. Even if this idiot doesn't believe the shit he says, there will always be plenty of people who do, and use it to justify horrible things. Just look at the dumpster fire that is Alex Jones' career: *maybe* he didn't believe Sandy Hook was a hoax, but that didn't stop many of his fanbase from tracking down and harassing the parents of the victims. So whenever people like this crop up, I hope no one ever has any qualms about calling them out for the spineless, bigoted assholes they are.
@@frankdrebin7086 I'm honestly still in awe that this guy managed to dodge Darwin Awarding himself, if that's how he works and who he surrounds himself with.
While it's hilarious how off-kilter the grammar is of the Domina creator, the fact that either Sterling or Justin misspelled the word grammar in "Note: Grammer is left as is written in the original post" also provides some chuckles.
Anyone remember those pick-up artist games... Super Seducer? Anyway, the second one had the guy outright call Steph a "fucking prick", among several other youtubers he was mad at. I wonder if this guy will be nearly that interesting in his inevitable retort? I doubt it, but watching him try would be fun.
"Dolphin Barn Incorporated combines the self-awareness of Digital Homicide with the charm and social grace of Cholera." Every time I watch one of these videos I worry we may have hit peak Jimquisition and every week after that the show still gets even better :D.
Good god... this guy makes the Digital Homicide dev look like a sane, rational person. Some Christo-fundies are beyond saving as they have already crossed the event horizon of a spiritual death, all that remains is fear and hate. Strangely enough in my observations its usually always the ones that are opposite of poor, starving or working 2 jobs to avoid eviction from their trailer park. How else would this guy have the time, energy and resources needed to both pay bills and do game development, he clearly has some sort of steady revenue to enable the worst of his inner demons to show. Its both hilarious and depressing tbh, better to just laugh at him, or better yet ignore him, robbing him of the attention he desires.
@@thomasel9171 Who said I cared enough to do anything to you? I was just telling you that you're in the crowd of people who are fully aware of how ignorant and narrow minded you are.

Congratz on the new studio. How I missed that purple background... Don't get me wrong, that filming in ruins worked too for a time but I kinda like that brand recognition
Posting weird conspiracy theories in you game patch notes has the same energy as your power company writing a link to the CEO’s sound cloud on your next bill

I'm going to quit my job and become a right wing stand up comedian, sounds like the easiest job in the world. 1. Stomp on stage. 2. 'Them lefties, right?

"Right wing comedians" are actually just orators... there was this one german guy in the 30s who was a good orator too, I'm told. Curious coincidence there.

4:43 _Oh my god, he's totally right! We need to dedicate more time to being productive and excise our lives of these meaningless online entertainment distractions!_ **uninstalls his fucking VIDEO GAME**
I’m all for telling young men to try and learn a skill and be confident, but trying to insult them in patch notes is not the way to do it. Also, women weren’t interested in me before the quarantine. Not sure why he thinks not wearing a mask would get me laid…
Really good episode. Its nice to have an ep that makes me just sad and angry at one person and not the entire fucking capitalistic structure of the society I live in(I mean thats always there but sometimes looking at something new distracts me for a solid 10 minutes, let's the ennui rest)
"Keep politics out of my games" OH MY GOSH you're so right about that usual line, the hypocrisy here is absolutely wild. "Waste a load on her" is kind of a raw line tho.
As always, loved the scathing outro remarks to this fuckhead dev. Reminds me of the amazingly brutal outro calling Gilson a sad little man on your video about that particular asshole. Keep on calling out filth like this, and thank god for you, Steph! My favorite steam comment in response this dev's patch notes: "THERAPY. NOW."
The intro hits different since embracer group suffered the consequences of their actions. I just wish that they didn’t drag half of the mid scale developers with them.
I own Domina and think it's a decent game. About a week or two prior to the publication of this video, I became aware of some of this developer's recent behavior. It was via the patch notes first shown in this video (regarding masks). In response to the update notes, I reported the developer. Steam hasn't responded to my report (to date), although they've eventually (sometimes months later) responded to every report I've made and I believe have taken action on every one I've filed (which were all actionable). The update notes are bizarre, discomforting and disheartening. The developer's behavior made me not want to ever play the game again and I began thinking about Steam's refund policies. At the same time, and even more so now, I worry about the developer's state of mind. I don't agree with what they're saying, but I'm worried they may need help and could possibly do something to hurt themselves (further, as they're destroying their career) or others.

Step 5, price it properly. Step 6, repeat from step 2 ad nauseum, most won't earn you much but it's a long tail style deal, the more you upload the more money will trickle in over time.
Original stuff ensures you'll get that sale compared to someone that might have a better setup, you can do "business man holding his thumb up" if you like, but you'll be competing against so so many other creators you'll be lucky if someone even sees your version before they bought one for their project.
Perhaps also get a fiverr account and setup a few promotional pages with a request form, though chances are they will take more time than you make money from.
"Don't let others tell you how to live."
Says the guy literally telling others how to live, back in the day that kind of behaviour would be low level trolling but these days self awareness is completely lacking with these clowns so he's probably %100 serious.
He's also very specific about the kind of adult entertainment he hates.
Just an observation.
My guess is he got jealous of porn games getting more money than him during a pandemic.
Came here to post that exact thing about a stranger on the internet telling people not to listen to strangers on the internet. So much Irony in that statement, you could build the Eiffel Tower out of sarcasm.
Is it possible that he's trolling? He called his game Domina..
@@Quintessence4444 maybe his domina ended things with him and he can't cope.
That's typical of people with right-wing beliefs. They go on and on and on about shit like "freedom of choice" and in the same breath tell you exactly how you should live your life. The lack of self-awareness is honestly stunning sometimes.
As someone who bought Domina on the year of launch and had to watch Nicky-boy's absurd long-term tantrum play out in real time, I can't tell you how satisfying it is to finally see his bigoted dudebro bullshit reach outside of the Steam forums and mostly be met with folks correctly treating him like a joke, instead of the countercurrent intellectual he thinks he is.
This is like when you see a sign at a place that's like "No (most ridiculous thing you've ever heard) allowed" and you just have to think "what the hell did someone do?".
And the sad part is there are people out there who will flout it just because they hate being told what to do by anyone.
Reminds me of a story about a certain donkey going over a cliff.
It's like when you read warning labels that say "hot coffee is hot" and "do not attempt to stop chainsaw with bare hands" and realize that, yes, someone WAS that dumb.
@@NeoTiamat TBF, the hot coffee was WAY TOO HOT, giving the poor woman third degree burns all over her lap.
@@NeoTiamat The chainsaw one was eye rolling, yes. Too many impressionable kids watching that Chuck Norris clip where he stops a chainsaw and try to do it themselves.
But the coffee one actually has a story behind it. The store was selling coffee hot enough to cause _third degree burns_ to skin, that's just irresponsible
My favorite was a sign in a parking garage that said "Please Park In an Unoccupied Space".
With guys like this, every accusation is a confession. He only rants about "E-Girls" because he's not just a bigot; he's a customer.
He's an incel
"Customer" implies he pays, and I'll bet he scoops them off leak sites to avoid paying sex workers.
Think his need to obsess over hard male bodies covered in red jam is a bigger tell than his hate of camgirls. Bet he's a corpulent boy who hates oysters too.
-am referencing the movie spartacus at the end-
I love when people accidentally tattle on themselves
A former customer, maybe. I bet he stopped once his queen turned him down.
Ah yes, the banned for an opinion excuse. It isn't at all that patch notes are meant to tell customers what a patch contains and not some sort of message board. Once again, somebody whines about free speech while ignoring where it doesn't apply.
ikr.
Whining about free speech while denying the free speech of others, name a more iconic duo. What a sad little man he is.
"I was banned for having an opinion!" says the guy that bans anyone on the forums for his game for... having a differing opinion.
There was a saying that went something like, "I find that when people complain about the whip, those who are loudest are often not complaining that the whip is being used as much as that it isn't in their hand."
"[...]being fat and trans, I am two for the price of one when it comes to phobia," that line is just perfect. I'ma have to steal that.
It's also worth noting that this developer has had his developer twitter account banned for the same stuff, and has also been banned from BANDCAMP of all things. I have to wonder just what kind of shit he's had to do to get banned from bandcamp because that's a special kind of achievement
So....He's been... Bannedcamp? :P

I found myself somewhat unsurprised to find out the Domina dev was a tad unhinged .. i remember watching streamers play it and when the gladiator stable running roman noble woman your playing gets murdered there would be a little message along the lines of 'Roman society is a mans world and a mere woman was never gonna make it' kind of message which made me go Hmmmmm.
little did they know women had surprising amount of influence in rome
@@CleopatraKing Queen Zenobia has entered the chat.
@@CleopatraKing Or that there were female gladiators.
@@jlev1028 Does that count as female empowerment when they're being forced to fight to the death? Even if they're fighting men and regularly winning, they're still slaves.
@@CleopatraKing Yep. We don't see much about them in the history books because the roman ideal was for women to work behind the scenes, not in public. In that sense it could be called "a man's world", as it would have been considered improper for a woman to be the public face of an enterprise, but it's still a daft statement because there are solid records of roman women running entire business empires or political factions for decades and doing quite well in spite of that social stigma.
I really enjoyed playing Domina - it's so disappointing that I can't support its developer and I've been retroactively made to regret paying for it.
Exactly my thoughts
Same. What's crazy too is I was thinking of playing it again like a week or 2 ago, since I hadn't touched the game in a couple years and remembered enjoying it. Then I saw this shit storm and thought I must have missed something back then, only to find this looks like a relatively new development
I'm happy I pirated it originally when it came out. I put it on my wishlist, intending to eventually buy it once I got some money, since I was in college at the time, but hey I never have to now.
Ye, it's a fun little game. Was going to fire it on again recently, but after checking them patch note's I backed out of ther like Grampa Simpson.
It was very close to a game I would love, I just needed more control and idea of what stats do. The gladiator management genre could really use some more entries.
Surely Duke Amiel H'ardcore needed to read those developer statements.
I did literally say out loud, "Thank God, a bunny," before even reading the caption for the adorable bunny in basket. On the positive side, I am even more inspired now to finish and polish my own game ideas.
"Instead of spending that energy learning how to weld"
That one caught me so off guard that I thought I was gonna have to go to the hospital from laughing.
it really makes me concerned about the amount of effort he spends jacking it if it's an equivalent amount to learning fuckin welding or farming

gonna be honest, i played a fair bit of domina and i tought it was great, but i never bothered to read a patch or look into the dude who made the game or participate in its community, so i had no idea what an asshole he is.

The worst part is this guy is also known as bignic. He made an amazing album of techno music called Corporate Lifestyle Simulator. He was featured in Lethal League and did a damn good job for Christ sake! How can someone drop to such sad depths? It's a depressing mystery...

Sounds like he dipped his toes in some Jordan B Peterson alpha male stuff, matched with a tinge of QAnon.

Reminds me of a guy I'm forced to work with. I do commercial property management and when doing discussions about some renovation he felt the need to add a right wing political manifesto to the bottom of an otherwise completely normal work e-mail. Been doing it on and off for a year straight now. Pretty much all the highlights have been discussed like anti-mask shit, abortion stuff, covid conspiracies, random crap about the liberals (I live in Canada) taking over the country etc.
My favorite and the most revealing ones are his most recent where he seems deathly afraid that communists are coming to kill the rich and how the rich need to arm themselves for the coming war. Just a man deathly afraid someone might take his things.
Again, all of this random crap at the bottom of normal work e-mails. Yes, we've told him to stop and he hasn't. No, we can't stop working with him as it's not up to us as he's a big client who pays on time. We've just opted to ignore it because it's all we can do.

I am surprised that this developper could code. I tought that those "alpha" were uncreative and incapable.
Or this is juste the proof that a 1000 monkeys could all write Shakespeare with enough time.
That's a bias right there. Just because he's a nutso when it comes to politics and gender in general doesn't mean he's stupid or unskilled at programming. Reducing those with differing opinions, however monstrous or uninformed they may be, to merely being "stupid" is akin to setting oneself up for failure when faced with the fact that skill and politics are not tied to each other in any way.
To put it another way, one's opinions doesn't inform one's skill or knowledge, it simply speaks about the way in which they interpret the information they have access to. The ability to design and program a game is completely unbound from one's outlook on life, society and politics. What that game contains on the other hand, may be intrinsically tied to how they view the world around them.
On that note, isn't it odd that this dude is all about "cowards, liars" and "grow some backbone" "take responsibility" yet he's not putting these political statements in the game itself, he's putting them in the patch notes? Makes it really hard to take him seriously, even more so than the bullshit he's actually saying.

"Right wing comedians" are actually just orators... there was this one german guy in the 30s who was a good orator too, I'm told. Curious coincidence there.

Technically he was Austrian.
Pretty much. It’s the easiest grift in the world. All you gotta do is say the shittiest things you can think of but say it in a sort of joking manner and they’ll act like you’re comedy Jesus Christ.
Don't know about anyone else, but as someone who studied programming at university, it doesn't require fighting.
Thank you for all your content. 💜💜 you have been a great inspiration in my life. 💜
4:43 _Oh my god, he's totally right! We need to dedicate more time to being productive and excise our lives of these meaningless online entertainment distractions!_
**uninstalls his fucking VIDEO GAME**
Once again, thank God for James Stephanie Sterling
"Read the New Testament"
"Don't believe the lies"
Pick one.
Just ask them for the original scrolls lol
I’m all for telling young men to try and learn a skill and be confident, but trying to insult them in patch notes is not the way to do it.
Also, women weren’t interested in me before the quarantine. Not sure why he thinks not wearing a mask would get me laid…
Really good episode. Its nice to have an ep that makes me just sad and angry at one person and not the entire fucking capitalistic structure of the society I live in(I mean thats always there but sometimes looking at something new distracts me for a solid 10 minutes, let's the ennui rest)
At least you admit you'll get angry at anyone you're told to hate, just like a good little Nazi.
"Keep politics out of my games" OH MY GOSH you're so right about that usual line, the hypocrisy here is absolutely wild.
"Waste a load on her" is kind of a raw line tho.
"Grow a potato" is legit hilarious
Grow 1 singular potato!
Start the timer for when the dev makes some bs excuse about mental health being the reason for making him act out.
thank God for James Stephanie Sterling
I’m new to this channel, but I already love it. Steph is a beautiful creator, inside and out. I may have developed a tiny crush.
Nothing irks me more than men writing something publicly that addresses the reader as if they couldn’t possibly be a woman.
He probably thinks that only men play video games.
This was an oddly satisfying episode Commander Sterling. Thank you for it :)
As always, loved the scathing outro remarks to this fuckhead dev. Reminds me of the amazingly brutal outro calling Gilson a sad little man on your video about that particular asshole. Keep on calling out filth like this, and thank god for you, Steph!
My favorite steam comment in response this dev's patch notes: "THERAPY. NOW."
This feels like a very old-school Jimquisition. A piece on some absolutey batshit-insane steam developer who thinks he's hot shit.
I'm with Justin. This guy gives me a headache so I really appreciated the bunny rabbit. Thanks Justin!
For some reason I half expected this to be the miraculous return of Digital Homicide.
The intro hits different since embracer group suffered the consequences of their actions. I just wish that they didn’t drag half of the mid scale developers with them.
I own Domina and think it's a decent game. About a week or two prior to the publication of this video, I became aware of some of this developer's recent behavior. It was via the patch notes first shown in this video (regarding masks).
In response to the update notes, I reported the developer. Steam hasn't responded to my report (to date), although they've eventually (sometimes months later) responded to every report I've made and I believe have taken action on every one I've filed (which were all actionable).
The update notes are bizarre, discomforting and disheartening. The developer's behavior made me not want to ever play the game again and I began thinking about Steam's refund policies. At the same time, and even more so now, I worry about the developer's state of mind. I don't agree with what they're saying, but I'm worried they may need help and could possibly do something to hurt themselves (further, as they're destroying their career) or others.
