What were his 'bad takes'? Name sounds vaguely familiar but would ring a bell if he had some bad takes.
The obvious one that comes to mind is the one u/Kienan highlighted here because a) this is probably what made lethn delete his account and b) Kienan does a good job of explaining exactly why lethn attracts haters. Lethn had a habit of getting hung up on the most arbitrary things, like insisting that if someone implemented code that was effective and simple, it was still bad because it was simple. He wanted people to reinvent the wheel for every single game and asset in their game.
He would often write out long paragraphs that implied clear conclusions, then act like he said something that meant something different, then agree that what you thought he said is in fact what he meant, but also you’re misrepresenting him, and also everyone is a hater, and also those downvotes are definitely a conpro bot network and not just people annoyed with me….
On a side note, he was probably the most prolific commenter and poster here for several months, and he wrote very distinctly. You really don’t remember this guy at all?
The guy also could not let things go, I never became a hater but it was exhausting trying to explain how the pc mod community functioned and how sometimes people don't want to make and sell an entire videogame and just want to mod something for their personal tastes and he physically could not understand it.
Like I just want to add some cool enchantments and spells to Skyrim not reinvent the wheel and make an entire fricking videogame.
Considering he threw a tantrum about the existence of rebinding keys, mods probably were blasphemous to his mind.
