But regardless of this, even if you are in fact right, and doug is a wonderful guy who thinks that gays should be treated equally, and with respect, the fact is that he did once say something horrible, and it's not wrong or offensive to point that out. I'll leave you with an example. let's say it's the 1950's, and instead of oppressing gays, the country is busy oppressing blacks. then some forward thinking individual comes up with the civil rights act, but there's one senator...let's say he's a democrat from west Virginia, who is so against the civil rights act, that he filibustered for over 24 hours, even having an aide stand in the hallway with a congressional piss bucket, so he could relieve himself while keeping one foot on the floor and therefore continue his filibuster. After he finally gives up due to exhaustion, the bill is passed. And this senator? Re-elected every term until he dies in office, of old age, at the age of 100. Do you think that in the many elections that took place since, carrying on into the 2000's, that it would have been wrong to point out that this man felt so incensed by the idea of equal rights for all races that he had an intern standing with a bucket ready for him to piss in so he could filibuster against the civil rights act? Do you think any amount of apology makes up for this in the eyes of a black person from that era who had witnessed and experienced the oppression first hand? Do you think it matters to the victims if he's sorry?

By the way, the guy sadly existed.

I'll leave you with that. I'm sure I'll get some nonsensical reply about how you can't show proof of this guy being sorry because dethtoll offended you, but the fact is, to me it doesn't matter if he's sorry, because when you make a comment like that, in public, on the record, KNOWING that it will wind up on the internet, you have to either A) really believe it or B) be really fucking stupid.

And I have no use for people in either of those categories, or the works they create.

Plus, I find his games to be poorly designed.
