Haunted Copy of Pac-Man World 2
@welegisbigstfan.bsky.social
I make text posts sometimes. I don't use my timeline, so I don't follow anyone. It doesn't mean I don't like you! I like talking to folks in the replies. If you're lucky, I might post a drawing...

The world's #1 (and apparently only) Re-Pac hater.
It's the form I take before it is revealed I am merely a vessel for Loading Head.

I hope if he DOES keep his dot eyes, they don't make them sunken-in for no god damn reason. Would look terrible in combination with him probably having scales or some other texture on his head. Eugh!
November 10, 2025 at 12:22 PM
Not that I know of... just fishy "leaks", lol.

Anyway, I hope so. I'm a little worried about it after what they did to Sledge Bros... Though, you are right that most characters with dot eyes did not gain eyeballs. I feel like it could go either way, honestly...

Not sure what else to say. Glad this didn't devolve into a screaming match and that we could have a real conversation, lol. Good video you sent, too.

Does his ignorance betray a lack of sufficient care for real-world issues and his part in possibly perpetuating them through said ignorance, though? I'd say so. Does he deserve scrutiny for that? Absolutely.

I think we agree on that, though...?
November 2, 2025 at 4:22 PM
Is it possible he was just ignorant and, as such, shouldn't necessarily be called a bigot? Well, honestly, looking at that initial tweet, now... there's a good chance?? Maybe a bit of both??
November 2, 2025 at 4:22 PM
Now, he DOES seem to call out anti-DEI grifters in a tweet that was omitted from this post, but I must admit it doesn't make his wording in the follow-up seem much better given its pretty direct insinuation that games having diversity when they otherwise wouldn't is agenda-based and bad.
November 2, 2025 at 4:22 PM
He also isn't arguing only that there is a coordinated effort to promote inclusion: he explicitly states his belief that this effort is agenda-based. In other words, not just that the coordinated effort merely exists.
November 2, 2025 at 4:22 PM
You bring up confirmation bias once again, but didn't really address what I said about how that would mean his pre-existing biases are already bigoted, which... would be bad. I would appreciate it if you could explain that part in more detail. Maybe I just don't understand the details of this point.
November 2, 2025 at 4:22 PM
Hmm. I must be honest and say I am no longer fully sure what you're trying to claim, here. You say you don't disagree with me, and yet, from your words, I gather that your point (he didn't know and is genuinely sorry) is, in fact, the complete opposite of mine (he knew full well and isn't).

At the very best, you can say Shesez is dangerously ignorant to the world around him and its many issues. That's really, REALLY not much better, for a cishet white guy with a platform who's responsibility it is to NOT be.

Anyway, he's willingly paying Elon Musk money, so, like. He sucks either way.

Kind of like when Scott Cawthon said "I actually love LGBT people!" after he paid money to fascists that would see them killed.

Also, wouldn't this being "confirmation bias" imply his pre-existing biases are bigoted ones...?
October 30, 2025 at 5:47 AM
His DEI rant is too specific, and too detailed. This is in stark contrast to his apology, which is incredibly vague and only says "I didn't know what anything I said meant, I actually love diversity!" even though he frames games having diversity when they otherwise wouldn't as a BAD THING.
October 30, 2025 at 5:47 AM
I'm reading his words and how he articulates his thoughts and I'm not seeing a single thing in his "apology" that can't also be read as trying to save face. What's the smoking gun, here?

If he was truly ignorant as to what those terms meant, then he COULDN'T have used them so competently.
October 30, 2025 at 5:47 AM
Umm... yeah... can't think of much else to say that I haven't...!!

I'm glad you like the remake. I wish I could, too.

...I also wish I had, like, 700 Euros to be able to afford to play Kirby Air Riders.
October 28, 2025 at 3:00 AM
(I also felt like I kind of HAD to talk about it, given I had changed my screen name to "Haunted Copy of Pac-Man World 2" only a few weeks prior to the remake's announcement!)
October 28, 2025 at 3:00 AM
I've said this before, but I don't actually mind if you or anyone else likes this remake. Like... me criticizing it isn't meant to be some kind of attack on you or anyone else.

I was only so vocal about my disdain of World 2 Re-Pac because of how much I care about the original game.
October 28, 2025 at 3:00 AM
Now, all that doesn't necessarily mean I think Bandai Namco should do it, especially given they don't even care enough to use Ms. Pac-Man...!!
October 28, 2025 at 3:00 AM
I dunno... I feel like all the things I've said so far have outlined pretty clearly why I don't think Now Production's got the chops. I don't want this conversation to just be me repeating it all, especially if we won't even talk about it...
October 28, 2025 at 3:00 AM
Shadow Labyrinth is bad?! Dang!! I was looking forward to that!! I guess I shouldn't be that surprised... still. Very sad.

Anyhow... you're not necessarily wrong in saying they're the best we've had in a while. It's just... the bar was pretty low, as I'm sure you know.
