Do you have any details about this? It genuinely sounds interesting.

Most of this stuff is in his YouTube shorts, which is where I first ran into him. He has a lot of cute ferret content, but things just started adding up over the way he presented things and his strange takes. If you have the patience to go through his content, it's all there out in the open. He doesn't obfuscate, he just always has good spin on things, and isn't quite able to put it together when he's fucked something up because he has lived an incredibly charmed life.

I will say, one of the things he said that has always stuck with me is that Blizzard usually makes more money on a single WoW mount drop, than they have for the entire existence of SC2. Which explains why WoW is still garbage despite years of tweaks and overhauls.

Edit: He really loves making diagrams, as if it adds an extra layer of truth to whatever he's saying. Probably convincing to a layman or someone who hasn't worked in corporate America for a long time, but it's just like, 'You aren't saying anything complex, you don't need a diagram for it.'

I remember him diagraming his wage for his "this is why Blizzard needs a union" short and he literally just wrote the numbers he just said.

I think he probably does it for the thumbnails. People are more likely to click if they see an inscrutable diagram. I know I am...

It’s easier to follow if your English is not that good tbqh

That's fair, but also probably not why he's doing it
