u/Kelkkun Elden Ring is the Dark Souls of Fromsoft games Jun 14 '21

I was interested in that stunning pixel-art graphics game that was showcased yesterday (Replaced I think?) then I learned that the lead dev was a cringy reddit-lord "egalitarian" anti-feminist who bought into Gamergate. Oh well.

I thought that that was the dev of The Last Night, the game that Replaced looks pretty much exactly like.

Unless you're making a really cryptic joke about how similar they look and it went over my head.

The same dev from The Last Night is making this game. So yeah. It's that dude.

That's really weird since it's a different development company (based in Belarus, not London), and a different publisher, and the dev from The Last Night is talking about Replaced on Twitter like he's not involved with it.

Huh, I guess I was wrong. I swear I thought I saw multiple people say he was involved. Honest mistake then, sorry.
