Jesus Christ, if true, what the holy incompetence.

    I’m still not convinced that this was the guy. The FBI’s narrative doesn’t make any sense. Does anyone know a conspiracy theory community where I can go full tin foil hat?

    Steam said I have 173.9 hours in Hollow Knight. Then I clicked play, clicked abort launch, and now it says 16.1 hours. The in-game display, which is actually accurate, shows 30.7 hours.

    It doesn’t count offline playtime (or at least it didn’t in the past). So most of my playtime for Half Life, Half Life 2, Celeste, Slime Rancher, and some others I played mostly while traveling is in invisible. Except people online say it’s still tracked for the refund policy lol. I suspect there might be a weird interaction with the case where the steam deck dies when a game is paused in sleep mode.

    Anyways not really related to the post I just wanted to rant about this because the time tracker is weird and kind of annoying

    Jesus Christ this is a more wholesome list of games played than I’ve seen in most children’s accounts. Deep Rock Galactic? I’m kinda believing that he actually wasn’t a lunatic right.

    I look like a deranged violent psychopath with play time comparisons.

    It’s supposed to paint the “Games turn people violent” narrative, nothing else.
    This dude could have 2000 hours on Animal Crossing and they’d still find a way

    and a gobsmacking negative review of Sea of Thieves despite that 2,000 hours of playtime.

    Oh damn, he’s one of those people… Sounds like the worst charge so far

        I play space truck sim. Sometimes you just wanna chill and press clunky buttons. Do some really low stakes slow shit. I’m old though.

        People under capitalism are so alienated from their work that they escape to something as mundane as Power Washing Simulator. Having a stable job with a modicum of satisfaction and control is a power fantasy nowadays.

          Work in HVAC, I go home and play project zomboid. My fantasy is that everyone stops needing me and I can stay inside on a Tuesday and just read and eat sphaghetti straight out of the can.

    The fuckheads in office are searching for stuff they can blame. It’s couldn’t possibly because he was a right wing nutjob. Oh no it must be video games! Time to start cracking down on that now!

    Dumb fucks…

      right-wing nutjob

      Didn’t he directly criticize Kirk as being hateful shortly before the shooting? Where’s this coming from?

      Agreed that Steam is a really stupid place to be looking for anything of substance.

      Well, maybe the fact that he left a negative review for a game he has over 2000 hours in signifies derangement on some level, if not political, lol.
