Congratulations, that man single-handed put out everyone's job at risk, for nothing. Prepare for Concord 2.0.

Wow, you do look like someone who enjoy outdoor activities.

I was born in the US South. I spent my youth just being a kid with people from many different backgrounds and races. I even hung out with the girls, even when the boys said that made me gay. I don’t like racists. Never have. What’s a guy to do?

Dude acquired those guns in the woods! 😉

radical leftist game devs have been saving us alotta money lately

Good video 👍

Address Matt as ma'am, to be respectful of course. lol

He wants to destroy his studio…. probably.

ahh shit. I don't care much about woke or inclusive because deep down it's a good movement and message. but it's almost always turn story and freedom of choice in game into shit. and hiring by skin color or political belief are too extreme. this goes against the essence of inclusive. It should be "we will hire A even if he/she is trans/man/gay/black/yellow/green or whatever as long as they're good for the job". Ironiclly he is the opposite of woke/inclusive.

Amazing mug!

to be clear, I am a transgirl and even i am sick of this stuff, whenever i hear pronouns in a game i check out. Avowed is now Avoid. I won't touch it at launch but if nothing else comes out, maybe i would check it out, but i highly doubt it.

My man busted out the overalls.

I'm on the anti-woke side of things usually. I do not count myself as an "ally" though I don't hate people for daring to disagree. I still want this to be a good game. This is the bethesda-like right? I just hope this insufferable douche-cannoo doesn't ruin too much. I don't mind a trans-option depending on the world you build just don't be annoying and for gods sake stop with the body type 1 or 2 bull crap. Do even trans people want that? Who is that for?

There is no such thing as Black, White or Yellow Everyone in this world is in shades of wheat.

Where there's smoke, there's fire. If they're willing to let this guy run off his mouth the way he is while adding controversial mechanics that sow division, then you bet game will be hiding even more dirty secrets.

It's really odd that all game companies have to do is normally promote a game now and they avoid all controversy...

aren't caucasians the worlds lowest population? kinda like a minority?

To me, game looks atrocious, character models are tragic and facial animations aren't... finished? Lip sinc doesn't exist.

I was very excited for this game. Now, I refuse to buy this game, on principle. I don't care about the pronoun nonsense, but Hansen's behavior is completely unacceptable. If he were my employee, he'd be shitcanned so fast his head would spin.

Was I gonna play it anyway? Probably not, maybe a slim chance in the future. Am I gonna play it after this? Absolutely not, and I'm so tired of this behavior. We sometimes get donations at the charity shop with this type of rhetoric on them, I once come across a shirt with "We are the granddaughters of the 'witches' that YOU didn't burn" written on it and it's incredibly disturbing how confident they are in saying/making crap like this, and worse of all acting like they're morally superior. Sounds almost familiar..

The Xbox demographic used to be Bro Dudes. The nerds have gone unchecked in the kingdom for too long, we need to bring back the bullies.

Hilarious, I enjoyed your opinions.

These level headed videos are always an breath of fresh air also that person's own ego has damage an game that genuinely looked somewhat interesting...this is such an lack of self control and priority focus pissing off the owner of x or normal gamers doesn't help your game. eye on the prize.

This is so weird. You know that normal people are pushing back against far left propaganda in the entertainment industry. And then you willingly put this product that you and hundreds of people that you know worked for years on the front lines of this current backlash. You may become the reason why the game fails, the company go bankrupt or has to do some layoffs, willingly. That's evil

I was super excited for this game, and now i will wait for it to go on sale. MH wilds comes out shortly after.

such a shame Welp its not like there's nothing coming out in February, kingdom come 2, monster hunter, Pirate Yakuza. Might pick up the game after its on the steam summer sale for 40% off, or after obsidian shuts down, whichever comes first

I saw this and instantly decided to never buy anything produced by this company and any associated companies we have to put our collective foot on they're financial throats and pressure they're investors to keep firing and shedding these people also make permanent laws and change so these people never have influence again

game looked decent but wont even pirate it due to his actions and tantrums, combined with their blatant racism they even publicly announced.

... Bro straight up went with the "I'm not angry, I'm disappointed." dresscode... He done fawked up.

Absolutely correct! Keep up the good work! And, I won't be giving any money to people who hate me. Thanks for the heads up!

The fact that instead of firing him or at least telling him to shut up they block people on their account who bring this up tells me all I need to know about Obsidian. Just as with Bioware they are absolutely nothing lie they were 10 years ago. Its also noticable how they ALL only refer to black people. They act like latinos, native American, Asians etc. don't even exist.

O M G. This was savage

Fantastic video. You’ve got a nice way of talking.

Time will tell whether this art director has greatly negatively affect the sales of Avowed. There is a good amount of interest for this game minus the controversy. Early data is showing a trajectory similar to Dragon Age The Veilguard if I am reading the data correctly. On a side note you look good in that vest.

If Obsidian want to save a bit of their revenue they need to wait for the next tweet and instantly reply "you're fired"

The funniest part of this situation is his claim he intentionally set out to make people mad would have actually had an effect if it was a well loved franchise, but it's not. There isn't an existing base of loyal fans to get mad. The only thing that will happen is people who don't like it will choose not to buy the game and forget about it.

8:20: LMAO, do the 5 Barves you do!

The reviews made me wanna buy this game. This dude permanently changed my mind.

Did not buy failguard wont buy this thing either

This is known as "the bigotry of low expectations", and is something most on the left are guilty of.

apparently i cannot speak disparagingly of racialists (which include klan members btw) very cool youtube

Really owning the chuds by losing money..yeah that'll show em. F that guy and F racism.

Its sad because people are going to lose their jobs over DEI team overseeing hiring instead of hiring proper people to make their game. I say overseeing because they are to incompetent to do any real job other then overseeing their ideas get put into the game. Like who hires a dude that goes on unhinged rants on twitter? Oh that's right those people do. How about hiring professional writers and professional artists instead of hiring DEI writers and DEI overseers who have ZERO TALENT? Who also hate gamers and who are also racists... If not gamers who is this game made for? My mom who doesn't play video games..

I honestly was very interested in this game, was going to get it even if they had that "pronounces" choice and did like Starfield didn't do more then that, however this art director... Has made this officially a non-buy-nary game to me, what a disgusting individual.

Imagine the vibe at Obsidian's office after this dude going unhinged and destroying the game's launch....must be so embarrassing....I personally find it so gratifying and hilarious.

It's a shame, I got very excited when all previews came out, the game looks really cool. I don't care about the pronouns discussion, but I do care about people who act like that, it's insulting and if we let people get away with that, it'll only get worse. I cannot and wont support any studio that's allows this type of behavior.

It's ma'am!

It honestly was. It is off my wishlist and dead to me. I will not be looking at it. There are far too many deserving, passionate, geniune game developers making great experiences. I'll never get to them all. But What I can do. Is ignore people who hate me and what I stand for.

Step 1- "Own the Chuds" Step 2- Chuds own back by not buying Step 3- Game flops because Chuds were the core audience Step 4- Play the victim, deny all personal responsibility for its failure

I've played a lot of Obsidian's games but watching the combat for this one just didn't click with me. The first-person approach made the combat look like a grind fest even though there's probably little difference between that and the overhead view with turn / live-action combat. I've still got several 200+ hour games to get through so I might try it once it hits 80-95% off just to see how it actually played but definitely not getting it on release due to these comments.
