Mahler caught wind of the article and responded to it on social media, going on a rant against ‘the press’ and those who hate against him and his brand on social media because of past events and opinions.

He slipped a bit, making some inflammatory comments:

I’ve been hated on Twitter by a few crazies for years now, and I also saw the calls for review bombing because, according to those folks, I’m a ‘Nazi.’

These days, apparently anyone who doesn’t include five trans characters in their game and doesn’t let their products be influenced by political bullshit is a Nazi. What a world we live in.

When the Russia/Ukraine war broke out and I replied on Twitter saying that Moon Studios wouldn’t be taking a public stance—because we’re a video game company, not a journalistic outlet—the next day a threat letter with a picture of Putin was taped to my office door, full of insults from top to bottom.

Well that went from whiney to a bigoted WTF tangent in zero seconds flat.

    Imagine making a Souls-like and then spending all your time complaining about the tr*nnies. Pathetic bastard. What a way to eliminate half your audience. That said, I’m more of a New Vegas girlie myself so it’s not like I’d ever buy it.

    Go anti-woke go broke
