When we talk about game awards and how they like to get people excited for upcoming games and trailers, Geoff Kneightly is always there, pushing his little agenda while standing on his soap box of lies and deceit. It's no secret that I simply do not like the guy, as he always seems so disingenuous and everything is more about him than any games or developers.
Recently, there have been a mass of layoffs in the gaming industry, which does not surprise me, and with AI, it's only going to get worse. We have a bunch of rich people trying to make quick cash by investing and controlling the gaming world, and the new generation of gamers is giving them a free pass to do it.
Microsoft being allowed to purchase activation blizzards was the start of the domino effect, and Geoff Kneightley is in the middle of clearing a path after having made himself the spokesperson for the gaming world. This was his opportunity to help manipulate gamers with his car sales speech, when in reality he is nothing more than a guy who is on a quick-rich mission and will do everyone's bidding to stay on top.
He doesn't care about gamers or developers, and his recent tweet proves that once again. Not once has he even mentioned the mass layoff, but he is quick to mention Game Scent with a direct link to their page. Not only was this bad timing, but it also shows no respect or care for what is actually happening to thousands of developers or their future. This is coming from the unofficial spokesperson, who has little or no decency but claims he cares so much about games and gamers.
