The reason people are ragging on PirateSoftware/Jason/Thor isn’t because he’s bad at writing code. It’s because he’s bad at writing code, proclaiming to be an experienced game development veteran, and doubling down and making excuses whenever people point out where his code could be better.
Nobody would have cared if he admitted that he has some areas for improvement, but he seemingly has to flaunt his overstated qualifications and act like the be-all, end-all, know-it-all of video game development. I’m more invested in watching the drama unfold than I should be, but it’s hard not to appreciate the schadenfreude from watching arrogant influencers destroy their reputation.
