I know it doesn't impact in the game, but I just found I couldn't enjoy it anymore once I learned that the lead developer is a shitty person.

Also, what the fuck is with all those Polanski movies after he plead guilty to raping a child. It's not like a Weinstein situation where people could pretend they didn't know. It really makes all the rage and shock over recent sexual misconduct revelations seem pretty fucking performative.

    You mustn’t enjoy much if you can't separate a creator from their creation considering what the rest of the game industry does to workers and the film industry does in general to upcoming talent.

    Not sure what the second paragraph has to do with Factorio though.

    You make assumptions. I separate the work from the artist. But I don't pay shitbags my increasingly rare spare cash and I don't promote them. That would ruin my enjoyment. Perhaps you have such wealth, you don't have to make hard choices about what to spend it on. Perhaps you don't care about living in a world where shitbags prosper and being decent is a liability.

    What makes him a shitty person? I have not heard that and he seemed decent. Possible causes of being deemed shitty is a sliding scale depending on offense, offender, their reaction and one event or multiple?

    For example Orson Scott card was such an asshole to numerous fans(especially women) he was banned from every comic and sci-fi convention. No, not kicked out. No not well you can't come back to world con but you can go to nycc. He was blanket banned by every convention of any reasonable size. Accusations of touching/groping, spewing racist shit to crowds, insulting people and that's how he was in public.

    Now if it was like a one off event with korveak and he went overboard and called someone a slut and then apologized... Ehh, we all make mistakes. Totally different situation.
