David Jaffe has been an absolute crank for decades and has only gotten more desperate and pathetic for the worst kind of attention.
This is a man who constantly gets into fights with journalist he was even once friends with if they criticise his games (when he still made them). Who posts Twitter poll thought experiments about imagining games that reward you for massacring nightclubs full of explicitly racial or sexual minorities. Who makes up stories about video game companies emailing him to give him $100m to come out of retirement, gets called out on the obvious lie, and then posts a respond ‘he was going to send’ written in a text file with no evidence of the supposed email. Who once said to someone I knew in the industry that the person “must be excited to meet him” before getting very pissy when told the person had no idea who he was.
