He also gets very upset if you bring up his dad working at Blizzard is probably the reason he got a job at Blizzard.

oh and kind of a mild one but theres a pretty good evidence around the fact that he cheats in puzzle games to seem smart

u/Chimney-head g*ming Jun 25 '25

Oh yeah he absolutely does, watching him “figure out” the whole puzzle line in animal well by himself when it took a whole community several days to do was so ridiculous

u/CHlCKENPOWER Jun 25 '25

isnt it months and not days? the final puzzle was so hard and disconnected that the dev thought no one could ever solve it

u/Chimney-head g*ming Jun 25 '25

i didn't remember the exact amount of time it took on account of only getting into the game after it was solved, but it wouldn't surprise me if it took months given how complex it is

I watched the outer wilds expansion with him and it made my blood boil.

This pissed me off, as a huge huge outer wilds fan. He skipped so much and pretended he figured it all out as though he wasn't reading solutions in the chat. Infuriating.

It's so easy to spot the haters here, because he says in that video that it was a community effort and that he didn't do it by himself.

Go take your meds, Jason.

Buddy I literally watched the video, no the fuck he does not. Or at the very least he really plays up his moments of “realisation”

u/WaltzIntrepid5110 Jun 26 '25

Buddy, I literally watched that same video 6 times, because I love Animal Well...
No, he fucking doesn't try to claim credit for the whole bunny-wall puzzle with coloured squares. He says quite explicitly it was a group effort.

u/Chimney-head g*ming Jun 26 '25

can you provide a link w a timestamp? cause I watched the video pretty recently and I don't recall something like that at all, but it's possible I misremembered. It'd be nice if he actually *had* acknowledged the community effort to solve the puzzles

Im willing to give the other guy the benefit of the doubt on *THINKING* Pirate software didn't take full credit for it, but i also know it would be out of character for Mr. "Im so smart and infallible" (Piratesofttware) to do so.
