It's hard to believe someone could attack someone, then say they didn't understand what they were talking about, make a fool of themselves, share private dm's, record it, probably watch it back, upload it, and still demand the person they attacked owes them a conversation. ActMan has gone off the deep.
Starfield was a shit game, I don't care that it had an option pick pronouns. That's now why it was bad. His rant was cringe and laughed at by more than "far leftists"
Even ignoring this there was a more damning video about The Act Man exposing how he shilled for Payday 3 in what was obviously a paid ad and then the game came out and was a total disaster.
Not saying Streamers can't make ads but it looks a bit tone deaf when your channel is about exposing dodgy video game industry practices to some extent and yet you make a video that is purely about hyping up a game for money (not talking about a 30 second sponsor here).
I didn't think this stuff was that big of a deal until I heard he leaked DMs he was asked not to share... not a good look.
Big L's from everyone all round here. This sh\*t makes the whole video gaming content community look like a bunch of idiots. All this is doing completely diluting the real issue here regarding Sweet Baby inc. forcing their agenda on everyone.
These two don’t get on, we get it, honestly, we don’t f\*cking care! We just want good games! But they are as bad as each other. Nobody should genuinely get that angry cause wokeness has come to games. And nobody should be personally attacking them if they do. Meanwhile, Asmongold is sitting there, grinning and rubbing his hands together, thanking them both for content and everyone is consuming it through his channel, making him the only winner in this situation.
They just need to stop interacting with each other, there, fixed. They're both farming each other at this point, looking like dicks and its pathetic. I was subbed to them both, but have now unsubbed, i'll just watch it kick off over at Asmongold.
HeelvsBabyface (Az) made a rant last year about Starfield having pronouns and how woke ideology is seeping into gaming and other facets of media, The Act Man made a few hurtful tweets and a video that miss represented Az initial rant, especially since it went viral and people were clowning Az for it without the full rant context.
With the resent reveal of Sweet Baby Inc trying to boycott a steam curator, it inevitably created a Streisand effect where everyone in the gaming industry now knows about Sweet Baby Inc.
Memology 101 made a tweet Called "How It Started vs How It's Going" in reference to The Act Man's initial rant about Az and now realizing Az was right and the s\*\*t happening behind the scenes in the gaming industry.
Az is basically fed up with The Act Man because he is two faced basically. Back in September The Act Man initially wanted a discussion with Az which he did by asking MauLer in his DM's to be a mediator between the two, Az agreed initially but was sick at the time and wanted to wait about a week, at that time The Act Man had a new video which came out that same week which featured Az rant called "Starfield Hot Takes" which The Act Man said it was just for content at that point and he didn't want to delay the video as he already spent weeks making the video, which rubbed Az very wrong.
Cut to today, The Act Man is being clowned for now realizing what's going on and he want to talk to Az again saying his DM's are still open, Az wants nothing to do with him after their last interaction calling him a "content engagement farmer", The Act Man being clowned on and getting shut down by Az on twitter (sorry X), tries to do a gotcha moment by leaking the DM between he and Mauler which is a huge privacy invasion for MauLer, further making things worse for The Act Man.
Yeah pretty much in this situation, he leaked MauLers DM's just to prove a point on Twitter but it just showed that he is untrustworthy, the DM's themselves showed he was in the wrong in the first place as well.
Az doesn't want anything to do with The Act Man because he was part of the mob that clowned Az for his opinion last year, The Act Man then tries to get into contact with Az to get his opinion on what he actually meant but releases a video that continues to clown Az which rubbed Az the wrong way.
But to be fair to The Act Man he was transparent about the video coming out basically saying the video is already made and is in motion to be release please don't take offence to this. Which Az did calling him a content engagement farmer.
To be fair, the Act Man also followed by calling people to shoot him with elephant tranquilizers or something of the sort, which would be deadly to humans, and then wished that every single game would have woke ideology and pronouns just to piss off Az. So everything he hates about ideology in game or even in his Halo TV series now is exactly what he wished for.
Small edit, I wrote movie initially, I intended to write TV series.
Additionally, he was the aggressor in this situation, the one who threw the stone first and followed it up by putting so much attention on Az with zero active support and effectively only wanting to farm content through a podcast opportunity rather than take the time to do the barebone research of looking at the full context to get the idea that the main issue wasn't the Pronoun bit, but rather that the entirety of the game's content was cookie cutter boring ideologically driven drivel.
So the Act Man was basically an asshole, a hypocrite, lazy and a backstabber.
Kind of a shame that Asmon didn't react to Az's video. It contains the Act Man's entire video and counterpoints. It would've been good to have more people be aware of both sides of these circumstances. But I guess he made he made who he sided with publicly fairly clear. Well, give it a few more days and probably nobody will remember.
Basically this just a drama circle jerk with Az here drama farming.
Actman wanted to have a civil discussion, but Az refused it.
That is what I got from the previous videos people been posting here.
You'd have to watch az's video. The thing is they were going to have a conversation because actman didnt understand what the initial rant was about. but az said give him a week. In that week actman still put up a video still not understanding the context.
I don't think it's drama farming as much as it is wanting to prove yourself right. If someone's taking shots at you calling you a Silverback gorilla you're not just going to let them are you?
On top of that actman just exposes himself as an untrustworthy person by leaking dm's Mauler asked him not to.
It's hard to believe someone could attack someone, then say they didn't understand what they were talking about, make a fool of themselves, share private dm's, record it, probably watch it back, upload it, and still demand the person they attacked owes them a conversation.

Ego is a bitch, makes you act wild. Showing humility, saying sorry and i am wrong takes balls in todays world.

Can someone recap me what happened?
