It is deeply ironic just how entrenched in corporate BS this guy is while naming his channel Priatesoftware. I would laugh if it wasn't so harmful to this endeavor.

As far as I know he's also, ironically, staunchly anti-piracy.

He is and I distinctly remember one clip where he bragged that his game was piracy proof because the save system uses steam achievements. Conveniently ignoring the fully working steam backend emulators out there used to run every game whose sole DRM is the Steam Store.

It was one of his earlier games that used that trick.
