Sseth releases review of PC roguelike game Caves of Qud (CoQ) > Sseth makes inane suggestions, gets banned from CoQ discord in ~1min > Brian Bucklew laughs at Sseth's ban > people go on CoQ discord to beat Sseth's record > saying "play as Putus Templar" gets you banned from CoQ discord at record speed > devs claim they banned "fash" > negative steam review > CoQ devs and Brian Bucklew: "what a fash conspiracy!"

Caves of Qud dev Brian Bucklew, and the Freehold games team, all believe suggestions of playing as Putus Templar = Nazi.

Brian Bucklew: Comments are 'alt-right sockpuppet fake discourse' from a 'nazi conspiracy'.

Commentary:

Putus Templar = POTUS Templar = US President Donald Trump = nazi

Sasuga retard devs.

i want politics in games

my fictional badguy faction is actually my sekrit Trump reference

how dare people want to play a fictional badguy faction

The Putus Templar are the main antagonistic faction in Caves of Qud. If the player is a True Kin, the Putus Templar start with a base 0 reputation instead. All legendary templars have a cybernetic credit wedge. They also have a chance of holding an Eaters' nectar injector.

A great game let down by a radicalised anti-democratic community where feature requests are arbitrarily seen as Orwellian wrong-think with specific channels dedicated to genocidal left-wing ideologies.

...the developers and the moderation team treat their player base that don't hold beliefs that fall within the same bubble and that they are happy to slander you as someone that supports mass murders in the name of eugenic cleansing (as genuine fascists did in the 20th century) should they believe that a feature request is an ideological trojan horse for crimes against humanity.

[extremely David Attenborough voicec] Here we have some textbook gaslighting, calling the description of the well-documented behavior a fabrication, a delusion of the reporters mind. The techniques themselves are arranged to be outlandish and plausibly deniable.

Spooky Princess Avie @FormidableTrap

A person liked your game and gave it a good review. You got upset and banned them while they were doing a positive review of your game. This is all self inflected by yourself, not some grand scheme against you.

The thing is like it sounds a little bit like a crazy conspiracy theory to say the alt-right create sockpuppets to fake discourse, and they organize them to toe the line with persistent "just asking questions"; but just look at my timeline the last 48 hours.

Look at the huge chains in the reddit threads on the discord. It's 100% that strategy. We can organize against it. It's why they're mad at our code of conduct. We've found an effective way to keep them out of our community and it's fairly straightforward.

1. Actually accept these techniques happen and ban people practicing them. 2. Ban their cultural internet dogwhistles (kek, 4chan, pepe), good faith folk will be like "hey no prob" if you ask nicely to not use those, bad faith folk blow their lids.

It's the entire dev team:

also let me just say, the ideological terrorist who enthuses about the destruction of swastika and yearns to sacrifice your soul while crawling swathed in morality isn't me it's the Freehold Games team

tag urself im crudely twisting agonizing finders into a mirror for my own debased thought diseases

Caves of Qud official discord has a 'anti-capitalism direct action' channel. Imagine my shock.

https://archive.vn/XN1Su Oct 25, 2020 Taurevanime @Taurevanime

They have a channel dedicated on their discord, where they are totally going to plan the revolution that will bring down capitalism guys. From behind their keyboards. You're dealing with some real badasses over here.

Schizo lefty logic: We banned b/c playing Putus Templar is nazi, but isn't nazi, but is "roleplaying nazis", and is actually nazi:

i have a legitmate question for you folk. do you honestly believe that playing as the bad guy in a game makes you believe/sympathise with everything that bad guy does or says?

Socially Distant Brian Bucklew @unormal

no

allow us to moderate alt-right shitheads who use the fact that the templar exist in game to play rhetorical asking questions games wrt them

Sseth gave your game a glowing review and this is how you treat him and his fans? By calling them alt-righters, and nazis? You don't find anything wrong with that at all?

Socially Distant Brian Bucklew @unormal

only the ones that are... actually nazis

If you're roleplaying nazis I don't want you to buy my game that's fine.

I did its all just manufactured outrage by bad actors

So no, I would not have avoided it, because its just made up shit by people mad they got banned from our private discord :)

Its fine with me im not upset its the nazis getting baited here.
