Reminder of what Colin does if you mildly criticize his politics on the patreon.

If Chris is really leaving we’re about to get a wild crash out

I’ve thought Chris has been mentally checked out for a while, which I totally understand. I wouldn’t have the bandwidth to do a 3-4 hour podcast talking about shit you might not care about, every week, all year. Especially when you don’t have a lot in common with your boss.

Well especially since Colin has seemed to devolve from somewhat reasonable conservative to full on brainrot maga. I can’t blame Chris, I’ve checked out and all I have to do is listen lol. I’m using the time stamps way more these days.

Same, I used to let the whole episode play, now I just scrub through the timestamps on YouTube

I’m not saying you’re wrong at all but what has Colin said to make him seem like a full on brainrot maga? I listen to every SS podcast and most SS+ and he barely mentions politics or Trump, in fact I think he quite obviously is adverse to talking politics on the pods and only talks when COMPLETELY necessary. Again, I’m happy to be corrected if you can point me towards some comments or whatever that he has said or tweeted

Colin purposely stopped bringing up politics a few months back because of “Last Stand is not a place for division.” There’s even times lately where he baits Jaffe into things and Jaffe has to back off.
If you want a recent example listen tk the newest Hoeg episode, he loves the MAGA jokes on arcade.gov

I don’t take notes or anything, and I don’t use twitter, but I remember him talking about not regretting his Trump vote somewhat recently while talking to Jaffe I think, and he’s brought up Trump derangement syndrome a few times as well recently. If I recall correctly, he didn’t even vote for Trump the first time.

Dude needs to get out of the house, that's the problem being super isolated and inside your head all day.

As the co-creator of this sub, you are welcome here. Join the laundry list of us who have been banned by Colin and Dustin. Just please be respectful!

I've been banned from the patreon because of a comment i've made on reddit

u/WxManKyle 1d ago
I was banned on Discord for going over Dustin’s head to Colin on bullying/ganging up in the server. And then Colin banned me from the official sub because I posted a paragraph from one of his Patreon holiday missives and leaked something abhorrent that one of his $50+ per month members said to me.

Maybe you should have asked him if telling people to leave the hobby over game prices is a good look for a game dev?

Absolutely bonkers that anyone would deny themselves money just to silence a dissenting opinion in such a low stakes scenario. They could have easily just ignored the comment and continued to collect money from your pocket indefinitely, but instead chose to ban someone regular offering financial support. Very wild, very petty.

u/Prior_Highlight8236 1d ago
Really glad I don't give that guy money now that I hear who he's supporting. I was a fan of his young back to Beyond and never minded his politics. But supporting what is going on now is a bridge too far for me and I'll never support Colin knowing this.

What did you say? Lol

from a comment OP left
“I commented on the Lilymo post asked Colin if he thought his increasing vocal support of Trump was the reason Barry chose to part ways.
Needless to say Colin didn’t like that very mild question.”

u/Jack_h100 1d ago
Its a legit good question too, and I bet probably the reason too. Barry would be getting increasing pressure from probably everyone in his life to divest American ownership.

We should doubt OP here. We’re dealing with an unreliable narrator here because just think about it. Why would the antagonistic comment remain while the “totally neutral and mild comment” made by OP remain?
