im glad we see eye to eye on that at least
Yeah, I saw your response coming from ten miles away so might as well address it.
My past behavior aside, it's easy for inactive members to jump in only during controversies and claim things on MFGG are black and white and that it's a hostile community because of these controversies, but that's completely ignoring all the history and context leading up to these events. Having some inactive members lash out or insult others doesn't help making that point.
And honestly, Hello is a grown-ass man and has been making fangames here since 2006. He can handle some bad scores and he absolutely knows what this community does and does not respond well to, and with its controversial premise, cringy writing and only marginally improved controls, camera and level design over Prism, it seems doubtful that he didn't see this reaction coming. Doesn't justify how far some people take it but at this point it feels like he's absolutely taking the p***. Not that there's anything wrong with that mind you, if I were him that's exactly what I'd be doing too.
