it sometimes treats relationships between gay men as a funny haha joke rather than anything resembling a typical relationship
honestly I don’t know what was pointed out specifically, but a gay member of the staff (the only gay staff member) apparently brought up some complaints regarding the writing/representation and he was resoundingly ignored, and then outed to the family. No one quite knows what happened, but the gay developer guy attempted suicide, so it seems like it was something serious
also it’s not clear how much the game grumps themselves were involved or if it was mainly the studio staff. Who knows. There’s not a lot of open information about it

Yeah the whole incident is just awful and made me thoroughly hate lets playing as a business model.
It continued mutating and getting more malignant and now we have rich Twitch streamers siccing their fandoms on each other in narcissistic turf wars.
