Unfortunately, it turned out that these screenshots were faked, and the same goes for a video that showed Wasser saying the above and deleting the message on their Discord server. It was soon redacted to "Gamers would be better off in gas chambers", which was all the more painful considering Wasser's heritage. Ironically, the following sentence was attributed to him: "Honestly, I'm tempted to say that now we have funding secured, gamers would be better off in gas chambers, but that's probably insensitive". Not long afterwards, however, images surfaced where Ooblets designer Ben Wasser uses the company's Discord server to disparage "entitled gamers" acting like babies.
Ooblets' developer said they know that they can count on their fans "to download a free thing and create a user account", as Epic offered them a minimum guarantee on sales, which is a rare sense of security for a studio their size. What'd be next? Game consoles paying for games to be exclusive on their consoles? Netflix paying for exclusive shows? Newspapers paying for exclusive articles? It'd be some sort of late capitalist dystopia". "This is exactly what Marx warned us about", they said, "Just imagine if other companies got it in their head to offer funding in exchange for exclusives. To be perfectly frank, I can't say Glumberland's post sounded in any way "hateful", but the truth is in the eye of the beholder here, and many insist it is just that, with a strong dose of condescension. First things first though - Ooblets was heading for a Steam and Xbox One release when Epic came in with the offer, but it all exploded once Glumberland posted their lengthy explanation.
