Playtonic took a lot of heat over removing Jontron yet Gears for Breakfast just gets away with it.
Regardless, I wasn't interested in Hat in Time due to personal reasons. Long story short I knew MechatheSlag on an old gaming forum and he had quite the bad reputation.
I'd rather have them work on making the game better then removing a character or replacing the character.
Oh no. A racist in my vidyagaemz? Gosh diggity darn it.
Time to start background checking everyone that's involved in the creation of an entertainment product you consume. I bet there's a lot worse shit out there than JonTron.

JonTron has been a shithead for months, though. If they were to remove him, they could have done it already.
But they already gave him money and it probably happened before he "became" a racist. So this boycott in pointless in my opinion but who am I to judge.
A perfect summation of YouTube gaming personalities in general.

I've been waiting for this game for quite a while so I will absolutely be getting it at launch, not going to let one bad man's INCREDIBLY MINOR voice role whom the devs have no association with ruin that
What kind of bad do you mean by "bad here?
Yeah, not going anywhere close to a game made by devs supporting Jontron.
It's fine if you don't care. But you're going to have to accept that there is a lot of people out there who do.

Why does this matter so much? Do you remember his role in Yooka Laylee that they removed? No I don't because it was an insanely minimal role.

Probably scared of insecure altright morons review bombing them.
TBH, I don't even blame the developer for not. Y-L got a lot of attention from Nazis for taking a stand against Jon.
Thankfully I don't let a voice actor's political opinions sway my purchasing opinions, so this doesn't really matter to me

The whataboutism is strong with this one. No need to background check people, the shitty people out themselves quite easily. The game industry is just shit about actually doing something about itOh no. A racist in my vidyagaemz? Gosh diggity darn it.

Jontron is a racist piece of shit, but he's not getting any money from supporting the game, so I won't blame anyone who does want it.

It's a few lines of dialogue for a few random NPCs in the game, recorded years before JonTron was outed as a racist. Considering this is a small indie team, it makes sense they might not want to throw away already recorded dialogue just to satisfy the small contingent of people who boycott anything JonTron has touched.
I've noticed the altright have more time on their hands.They're gonna get review bombed if they keep JonTron, and they're gonna get review bombed if they remove JonTron. They're fucked either way.
I backed this thing and have been hyped for years, and this business bums the fuck out of me. It's not so much about JonTron's presence, but what it says about the priorities of the devs who I trusted with my money and goodwill.
I was looking forward to thursday and now I just feel tired.
AAA is nothing but lootboxes and the next generation of indies are 4chan edgelords. If I didn't have a serious backlog I'd be mulling dropping games entirely right now.
I dont think its remotely honest or intelligent to equate a YouTuber publicly going out of his way to espouse nineteenth century racialist views to trying to know what every person in a project knows.Oh no. A racist in my vidyagaemz? Gosh diggity darn it.

Didn't he pay to get into the game as well? I don't really care who anyone is, but if they are going to be paying to help development on a project that I might like, and they'll get a role in the game because of it. That won't stop me at all from buying or playing the game at all.
Same goes with Palmer Luckey, he might be a piece of shit, but I'm not gonna stop using my Oculus, because he was once associated with it.
Why does everyone hate JonTron? I never really watched anything he made so I'm not sure.
It wasn't hard for Playtonic.

Looks like they're gonna get a lot of attention no matter what they decide to doTBH, I don't even blame the developer for not. Y-L got a lot of attention from Nazis for taking a stand against Jon.
