Simultaneously can solve problems that the community spent thousands of hours on in a matter of seconds yet can't find a single thing to do on his mage he'd played for 150 hours to help his guild mates.
@@GrappLr funny enough I'm still going to watch pirate over you I don't know who you are you're only relevant because you're talking smack about someone more popular literally the only reason you have appeared on my for you is your shit talking goes to show how shit you are
That's not toxic at all. It means you are the kind of person that feels good when you see bad people getting punished. Most people are like that, but not everyone is, and there are actually people who want to defend evil doers, see them getting away with it without punishment and, in the best case scenario, getting the forgiveness of the victim, the very people they hurted. Keep in mind that " not everyone ", despite not being the majority, are a large number of people, so you can expect to see both evil people and evil supporters with some frequency. I was a law student at university, and what I'm saying is based on the theory we study at law schools in criminal studies. When the legal system manages to punish an evildoer, it is done in a manner to both punish the person and to relieve the sense of injustice and hurt committed to all the other people in the community that had to experience what happened. So if you are on the side of people who enjoy people like pirate software getting exposed and attacked because they keep doing bad shit, that means you are on the correct side. Fact is, and there is no need to feel shame about it, bad shit needs to be done to bad people in order to both punish the wrong people and their supporters, and also to restore the sense of justice of the correct people.
@Tordek_1989 very well said. I have been calling out thor for months now ever since I found him on yt shorts. I called out the voice, the undeserved wisdom and ego, and the lack of any real game development... and I knew something wasn't adding up. I would comment this and his legion of cult followers would attack me. How did I know something wasn't adding up? Idk? Maybe it's cause I'm 43 years old and I just know how life works. The first hint of a narcissist is when they give themselves a nickname of "thor"
@@brian8507 Me too brother. I have been calling this guy a pathological liar for months now. Feels nice to see people finally catching on and calling out this liar for what he is
@@iamcerealman102 the funny part is that he is playing now poe2 a minion build so he can run away and leave his minions to die xD perfect build for him!
@@alejandronunez7650 I noticed that. Really fitting class for him. What I also find funny is that when he has guild in game he names it after himself. I woudln't be surprised if this person had stash in poe called "Pirate's stash" and it wasn't bc someone else is playing for him but bc that's actually how he names his things. If he ever gets wife she will not take his name but instead her name will be "pirate's wife".
The issue with Pathological liars, that they have been lying about things for so many years, that admitting one lie, will make them admit their entire history of lies.
@@ImotekhtheStormlord-tx2it Yea, exactly. A normal person, when he lies, he thinks twice should he do it? And even if he does, later he has to deal with how it feels and does he regret it. When you have pass that line of no regret a few times, you no longer tell the difference emotionally with lying and not lying. My guess.
Yup, it's like kleptomania but it's about lying. Lying is like a part of him, there's no concept of truth. That's why he keep on spreading misinformation and keep lying in his RUclips shorts like it's nothing. For example when he lied about his mana in WoW, he never said or admit that he lied about it, he just went off like it's nothing.
@@MotraZotra I think most people lie impulsively when they do lie. Take little kids for example, if you catch them with their hands in the cookie jar and you ask them what they're doing, most often they'll say "nothing :)" and need to be pressed to admit what they're doing. If anything, the threshold to tell the truth is often higher in cases of social pressure than the threshold to tell a lie. Unless, of course, a person has matured normally and does not act like an actual child.
This Guys superiority Complex is so huge, he can never show even the slightest amount of fault. He has to know everything, he has to be smart in everything and most importantly right.
The guy snorted coke for 4+ years on RUclips live and now actually thinks he's not only some wizard, no he's THE wizard 😂 "Second puberty" my buttcheeks
I have known people like that, my hunch is they started to lie about things, and they have done this for so many years, they no longer can admit they have been lying for decades about a lot of things.
The "wait for it" is always such a giveaway. Implying Pirate already knows for certain what is going to happen and is he is excited that his audience is about to witness what is coming.
Me: "Okay, now let's hold on a second. Just because this guy faces a lot of backlash right now, let's not make shit up about everything... It's a puzzle game, I've solved puzzles by chance before, maybe he did as well?" PirateSoftware : "Okay listen, I have this weird idea about changing my PC settings to the date of Groundhog Day" Me: * SIGH * PirateSoftware : "And then we're going to - [...]" Me: "There's MORE?? WHO'S BELIEVING THIS???"
honestly, the groundhog thing didnt sound toooo outlandish in the beginning, atleast if you for some godforsaken reason know that the thing even was a groundhog, groundhog day is decently well known where im from, so being primed to try stuff like that in a notorious puzzle game isnt too crazy, but holy fuck, everything afterwards is just so bizarre, how could get those things without any time to think, what a bozo, didnt even have the decency to pretend like he has to think, or feign ignorance and say that he tangentially heard how some smart people tried solving this thing already
@@inferno4165 I grew up on Metal Gear, and loved classic comedies like Groundhog Day, and still wouldn't of thought to do that. Also, I'm that one idiot that thought that was just a bear chilling in a cave.
Its just lies after lies after lies and everything comes to light because of his ego. But dont call him out on it or youre gonna get banned, he worked at blizzard for 7 years, he can just delete your life.
The dire maul wipe, eh whatever. The bad pull in ashes and gaslighting his party, thats pretty bad. Now taking credit for weeks of work by many many people, yeah no wonder people are done with this guy.
The Dire Maul wipe is way worse than just "eh whatever". This guy plays mage like someone who has been playing for a day or two, and claims that classic is easy because he does mythic+ raids, all the while acting high and mighty talking down to new players and maintaining this pompous attitude about his own skill. He can't even do basic stuff. Not only that he doubled, tripled, quadrupled down on it on twitter defending himself and not apologizing, then whined off to another game where he got bullied for being pompous and shit there.
He's going to have to download all of pirates old videos before they get deleted, but yeah he would be the guy to really be able to spot nonsense and also be furious about it he's still going through his case with Silly Bitchell too.
Yep. That would be hilarious. And in my oppinion justified. Karl deleted that MH Alatreon girl. Pirate here is also falsely claiming a blind run. This blind run is a slap in the face of the animal well Community who worked weeks to solve these puzzles.
@@pvprangergod4024 I hope not. Makes you wonder if his whole wholesome chungus persona is a facade. I hope he's just a human being like the rest of us and has flaws but also has good things about him, too.
This is what made me suspicious of him ages ago. I ran across some short that touched upon a toppic I knew a little more about than the average person. He was just blatantly wrong in that short. No biggie, people mess up. So I check the comment section, to look inside, probably someone already threw out that he is wrong... nope, just so many people glazing him.
@@LoLo25A all his content seems heavily moderated. Even in videos like this there are always some number of people coming in to defend him. Idk if he's paying people or theres some bot service or what.
@@pewpin1039 yeah, the first time I noticed, I was like "ok maybe he's trying to oversimplify it and is getting it wrong because of it". and then he started talking about network architectures, and didn't even know what server authoritive actually meant, claiming it meant literally everything could only exist on a remote server farm, and that is was used because 'muh cheating' and i realised: no way has this guy ever touched a multiplayer game as a programmer in his life.
"Playbook narcissistic behavior" 🤓🤓🤓🤓 Bro I swear you're going to make him look better if you start doing that tea-channel talk, just call him a big loser.
God. The fact that he ALWAYS gets its right on the first thought or try. He's not even trying to be subtle. That or working at Blizzard truly makes you into a Super-Human. What position was he? The head of Psychic enhancement?
He was a QA tester nepo hire thanks to his dad pulling some strings. He claims he left blizzard and reapplied later so got hired on his own merit but 😂
The best part about pirate's revelation concerning the poster is that when he says 15:08 "this is 4 blocks wide and that part of the poster/map is blocks wide" it wasn't 4 blocks wide. 12:30 He found the 2x2 wingdings and immediately made it 4 blocks wide. So why the hell would this be connected somehow? You made the 2x2 wingdings nonsense 4 blocks wide because you looked up the solution.
This video is a 7 hour long edited video of the original 85 Hour Long stream. Like... guys, wtf. We were there watching him go through the whole thing, and now everyone's drama farming.
I knew this guy wasn't legit the moment he went against the Stop Destroying Videogames initiative, but damn... Dude is a legit fraud at everything he does, even his microphone is bass boosted to make his voice sound deeper.
@@Im-No-body why is his voice so easily recognizable and sounds the same in other mics tho ? in interviews from litteral years ago lol ? adjusting the EQ on a mic is not even close to the same as a voice changer LMAO, if thats the case then EVERY SINGLE music ever made is completely fake to your standards. My speakers have EQ on them , so it sounds GOOD, not so it sounds fake lol. adjusting the bass and other EQ to make your voice sound good is literally just good audio tips ?? im not trying to say nothing he does was ever faked at all, but this particular nit-pick is hilariously misinformed LMAO
idk about the voice. he went to streamer awards and sounded the same. if mic was adjusted then valkyrae and the other guy would have sounded different as well
@@SazokuNamikaze Ive seen the streamer awards clip and he sounds much more squeaky than his personal stream voice. Definitely bass boosted on his own stuff
Well, You watching a reaction of a 7 hour edited long play. Have you watch the full 50+ hour stream of the game where he tries each puzzle multiple times and even do multiple re run just to make sure he find every possible puzzles?
Don't worry, making furry art in your basement like Jason 'thor' also counts as game dev experience I've been told. Although now that I mention it I don't think that helps.
Just a bit more info on that secret ending, the dev understimated that the community could brute force the puzzle in weeks, he expected people to take years to solve it
All of this because the guy ratted out of a dungeon, legit nothing would have happened if he just admited to panick, but no, you have to just be right everytime, even in a blind playthrough xdd
@@omega7057 Gonna be honest, you get your calls that messed up, hear people are still fighting. Turn thinking I might be able to help em, and then hear that they have another pack. Na, I'm bailing too in that situation. Pretty sure I saw the rogue did too.
@ Nah the rogue stayed, he's a noob at the game so he only stayed and didn't do much, but he tried to save the others Pirate just started running with a class that is able to help his team escape, yet he refused to help and wasted all his mana to seem like he "couldn't do anything" And that's not even an issue but he basically says that he had no choice but to leave them
There’re some things were it’s like “yeah they were fuking around and found an secret” but getting something that thousands of ppl took weeks to figure out in one playthrough is suspicious
especially step by step, one after the other bullseyes with 0 errors, zero extra experimentation. its just "oh i have an idea... oh it worked perfectly... oh i have another idea... it worked perfectly again"
Genuinely, if people realized how unlikely this was they would all know he is a fraud (which is becoming increasingly more obvious). I genuinely think Dream's speedruns had a higher likelihood of not being faked than this playthrough being blind.
Here’s the most glaring issue, a person with that level of ability to solve puzzle and code would be enticed into fields of immeasurable importance. Streaming games and making games that never come out would essentially be a waste of life and ability.
That first clip alone, about the groundhog. I mean... what the fuck was that? That does not just come to you out of nowhere, instantly. Nor would it necessarily be something you would resort to doing. Who would even reason like that? You see a volcano in-game... oh, let me quickly change the date to May 20th. With May 20th 1883 being a rather important date in the field of volcanoes. Yeah... I mean, what? It's not an automatic given to have to change your system clock.
You can tell this guy is not very smart because he doesn't understand how smart people think. Being smart doesn't mean you see some kind of pixelated animal that looks like it could be anything and go ''yep, that's a groundhog which is a reference to Groundhog Day so I need to change my system date to groundhog day and something will happen.'' That's not smart. This is fail RP. Imagine doing this every time you see some kind of weird animal in a game. See a crocodile in a game? Well, it's time to change the date to when Crocodile Dundee came out. Didn't work, let's try the actor's birthday. Didn't work, let's try the release date of the home release. Didn't work, let's try the date when the sequel was released.
@@JohnRed to be fair, it doesn't look like a mouse, mole, hedgehog or beaver whatsoever. That specific point is the weakest out of the bunch. Heck, groundhogs are a pretty common sight in the states.
@@magiwastaken To me it looks like a bear. If you told me it's not a bear and I look closer, it looks like a hamster. I don't think a 40 year old nerd who sits at his computer and worked in california in offices all his life is seeing groundhogs and they're on his mind. This is just splitting hairs and if we're going to argue the most insignificant detail, he still loses. Eagles are common in America, that doesn't mean that an American is going to set his date to the release of the first Eagles album every time he sees an eagle in a game. This is nonsense and anyone telling you otherwise is gaslighting.
@@dariohenriquez7773 I do kinda want to point out that mr Robot stole an ARG from Defcon where the only info they could of gotten it was a write up about that puzzle that Piratesoftware made. because you know... he competed in Defcon multiple times and won award for it multiple times so...
It's generally so sad that his personality on internet is a lie. I really thought he was a pretty chill dude when i watched some of his shorts. I guess i'm happy that i never actually watched his content.
... _ - +√ Pirate: I just thought of something! It's code for the latitude and longitude of the Eiffel Tower. If I plug that into Apples Map app while logged out, and turn Bluetooth on... Ding Ding Ding! We solve puzzles in this house!
Was he actually serious about this playthrough? It just feels very familiar to the way I interact with my kids. "I wonder what would happen if I flick this switch. You wanna try it? Oooohhh look, the light went on, that's craaaaaazy"
I gotta be real... I enjoyed Pirates clips and would watch his shorts often. The WoW drama was annoying but whatever I can get the God complex from someone with his history with that game... But the Ashes clips, and this right here... I'm done watching that dude. It's wild because nobody watches him expecting God tier gaming. The writing is on the wall and his channel will soon be in major decline. All because of his need to be the smartest guy in the room and refusal to admit mistakes and/or being bested by puzzles (that everyone alive was bested by). No doubt he accessed the Dark Souls DLC on his first run blind. People watch blind runs to enjoy the struggle and see others battle the same challenges they had... Dude legit stole that joy from his audience.
I’d say he also stole the joy from himself. Beating outer wilds on stream with my community was such an amazing experience. To trade that just to flex that I’m smarter than I am… it’s a waste of
He's 100% playing up "his history" though. Like the whole "I banned 2 million people when I owrked at Blizzard".. he wasn't a GM, he couldn't ban anyone. No idea what else he played up, but I doubt all he's telling about his history is very legit at this point
I enjoy pirate software's shorts, but what got me to not like him was when he stopped people from signing a petition to allow consumers to prevent companies in shutting down old games. That was already a red flag for me.
I wouldn't give a shit that he looks up stuff beforehand if he didn't act like he was the ultimate God-tier gamer, and specifically say he's doing it without help. I look up shit all the time, but I admit I'm a dumbass. The sad thing, I bet he is probably a very intuitive gamer, but acting better than you actually are, just makes you look like a poser.
Pirate should play Fez. That game has some notoriously difficult puzzles so it would be a benefit to the community that he should grace us with his superior intellect and show us mere mortals how puzzles are really solved.
yup I knew he was a fake when he started spouiting things about coding while knowing absolutely nothing about it. On top of that he kept calling himself thor and it just rubbed me wrong. His name is not thor. It is jason.
I can’t wait for him to come out and say it was all a social experiment and he was trolling everyone and he’s actually laughing at all of us behind the scenes ect. Because you know he can’t just take the L. He has infinite ego and he’s not capable of admitting he was wrong. 💀
What’s really funny for me was the fact that he is not really playing the game. Just casually solving a secret ending right at the start in a blind playthrough.
Thor “figuring out” the poster and that look on his face, reminds me when Nicholas Cage figured out you need to put lemon juice on the declarations of independence and heat it with a hair dryer
@@GrappLr Have you seen them? my soloQ teammates that they unleash upon me when im on a winstreak? Are their cages comfortable so they can rest after the hard throwing they have to do?
People like him will ALWAYS tell you what they are doing by portraying them in a bad light so you are less likely to think they are guilty of doing exactly that, because that'd make them look bad, right? That's the psychology behind it. He's done this with WoW, almost word for word what he ended up doing the opposite of, and also with Animal Well's puzzles.
"Where the hell's the fun in that, bud?" /annoyed face He often uses "bud" when he's annoyed, passive aggressive and condescending. He used to go by Maldavius in EVE Online and had a reputation for being thorny under pressure.
woah, woah, woah... hold your horses solving puzzles that a community of players takes weeks in a matter of hours is one thing... but casting rank 1 forst nova? that's next level stuff
Bro i have played this game so many hours and i dont know where tf im going bcs is so complicated. And my man solved everything in one go. Now that's gaming right there
It is sad that some people get famous by acting like a good guy but in reality they aren't. Pirate is the prime example of someone lying about everything and developing such a god complex that he gets dunning kruger effect and cognitive dissonance to a level which no normal human beeing can even comprehent.
I knew Blizzard devs were clueless, never take accountability and ignore community feedback but it's kind of surreal to see it wielded so shamelessly. At this point I would be unphased if he pulled out a bottle of stolen "milk" and drank it on stream.
he banned me from his twitch when he was going in on elon for cheating.. oh the irony lol, funny thing is i called him a bezos shill, didnt even defend elon lol
I've disliked this guy from the moment I first heard him. You have no idea how cathartic it is seeing all of this. We should keep in my that everyone's fake, boisterous, lies, refuses to admit mistakes, shifts accountability, refuses to hear people out that they've screwed over, ... list never ends. me included. It's the fact we take the time and save the space mentally to admit our faults, try to right our wrongs, ... that keeps us from becoming like him.
man watching him solving this its like watching Neo in matrix he just sees the numbers and data with his naked eye thats why he can figure out things in matter of seconds
The biggest pirate simp is pirate. Every photo in the house is him. Mirrors around his bed so he can watch himself go to sleep, and an alarm clock with his voice telling him he has amazing things to do today and don't forget you worked at Blizzard.
I usually don't get annoyed if someone has a big ego, but combine this with narcissism + zero countability. People who can't ever say they were wrong is one thing, but Pirate seems to be a pathological liar who can't take any criticism at all. These are just tiny things, but start looking at everything else, often they keep lying on everything else. I found out one similar person in real life. They caught stealing a lot of stuff even tho they were actually rich. It looked like they did it just because they could. Zero countability and lies, lies. Caught on camera and first reaction was pay under the table, so there were no cops involved. Not saying Pirate does this, but these type of personalities are a major flag for me.
I didn't like him, but I thought it might have just been my bias against some of his takes. Guess I should have trusted my intuition like he did to solve this puzzle 😅
Lol the fact that this guy want to pass this off as a genius coincidence. Just proves he is obsessed with being perceived better than he/everyone else is. This plus the other stuff coming out recently.
well he 1: worked for blizzard, 2: worked as a hacker for the CIA after all even in WoW, when there was an order to run, the rest of the team didnt understand his genius to just book it and burn mana along the way this guys a literal super computer, the day that companies try to make super computers available to the general public, they're gonna study this guys brain then upload it. everyones gonna have piratesoftware AI super computers but fr though, his acting is absolutely horrible
Thor: "This is four blocks wide, this is four blocks wide." Me: "It was two blocks wide and two blocks high before you immediately decided to cut it in half after finding it."
Imagine he as this all started would have just said "my bad, i fucked up but paniced" nothing would have happened and nothing of all this would have come out... absolute ego crashout from beloved streamer to hated lolcow... its baffling to see
"When he was 16, he landed a dream job as a game tester at Blizzard Entertainment..." "But after around six months, Hall realized that he just wasn't ready for corporate life. He acknowledged, "I was shit at it. I was completely awful." So he left to hone his skills..." Interview on Mashable - How streamer Pirate Software gained nearly two million subs in six months
Watching a man who thinks he's a god having to sit in the very bottom of the hole he has dug himself for 10 plus years despite multiple warnings and ego checks with now millions viewing him from above the rim to his shame hole ........... is priceless cinema and im addicted !
It's really difficult to hear his fake epiphanies and listen to his voice. In fact it makes me physically ill to watch him being fake. You don't become like this unless you've gotten away with it countless times and had people eating out of the palm of your hand. Deception is second nature to him.
Honestly at this point keep it going. I went from piratesoftware fan to "wtf is going on" to "brother just apologize" to "take him all the way down" he deserves this fall, im sorry. he NEEDS some humbleness. edit after the video: yea this is absolutelly ridiculous. what a clown. this is SO disappointing.
You need some training in grifter detection. It should take you 30 mins of listening to him talking about anything to figure out he's... whatever he is.
@@pacman_pol_pl_polska first whiff i had that he was BSing was when my feed kept getting bombarded with his shorts, naturally even if you don't click them they'll show up as you scroll. It was about game anti-cheats and the apex server hacks, he was really just spewing misinformation the whole time while speaking smugly, instant "don't recommend", then this happens lol.
If you suddenly don't like him anymore just because of these fake rumors than you were never a real fan. I've been a pirate software fan over 7 years and have 20+ years experience of watching furry streamers so I know what I'm talking about
everything he found or thought of kinda makes sense, even finding the poster on the wall which clearly stands out from everything in that room. My eyes went straight to it and I've never played this game once. However, when you said he figured out that fountain was a barcode, that to me is where it went batshit insane. Like, there is no way.
It's the reverse for me, the barcode was crazy obvious (due to having pattern recognition for barcode start/end sequence), but the poster? Could be straight up anything, I'd first try to assume color values are important. It reminds me of binary memory regions map, could be so many things, yet he immediately "knows" it's an alignment tool.
@@Algoinde what you two are experiencing is the exact same thing that the AW community was experiencing. Multiple people from different walks of life, different expertise and professions, allowing them to spot things that others might not. Getting together and finding stuff that others didn't and then sharing that information with each other. All culminating in solving the end puzzle and all done by a lot of people, in several weeks. Roach Noware solved it in a total of 41 hours.
It took me extremely short time of watching Thor to understand what kind of person he is and his psychological pathology. He is in reality a very mentally ill person. He fits all the boxes of being a person with an extreme narcissistic personality disorder and he also shows the classic trait that many with NPD have and that is him fearing to be exposed and afraid of losing his sense of superiority or being seen as vulnerable. Many people think all narcissists are confident about themselves, but the reality is that many of them are worried and even scared of this all the time. This is why many narcissists tend to be so called "snowflakes" and they can go to extremely lengths to make sure that their image is not shattered. Thor's reactions and how he tends to ban or/and block every single person that criticize him, disagrees with him or says something he doesn't like, confirms this. Specially when he feels that his self made fantasy image is threatened. He also shows an extreme need for having power and he seems to enjoy to use/abuse whatever power he has or thinks he has. It is very obvious that he gets a kick out of banning people in his chat, threatening people that he will get them banned from games and a desire to be a guild leader with many minions that do his bidding and adore him. And we can see the same with how he acts in his streams towards his chat and fans, that also confirms the rush he gets with this feeling of power. Him willing to cheat to get admiration from others, is also typical of people with his psychological pathology. They will lie, cheat, steal and do all sorts of other morally questionable or even illegal acts to achieve this. Some even do extremely deplorable acts. His grandiose delusions also fits perfectly in him having NPD as it is very typical that they are co-occurring mental disorders. My clear advice to all is to not have a friend or a GF/BF/wife/husband suffering from this. Try to avoid these people as much as you can.
Simultaneously can solve problems that the community spent thousands of hours on in a matter of seconds yet can't find a single thing to do on his mage he'd played for 150 hours to help his guild mates.
he obviously has the brainpower of a thousand men
I mean he worked for SEVEN YEARS at blizzard, that problably gave him 500 IQ

He missed it because nobody told him about it. I hear 10k people tried, but they were banned before the info could ruin the ending for him.

Yup, it's like kleptomania but it's about lying. Lying is like a part of him, there's no concept of truth. That's why he keep on spreading misinformation and keep lying in his RUclips shorts like it's nothing. For example when he lied about his mana in WoW, he never said or admit that he lied about it, he just went off like it's nothing.
@@MotraZotra I think most people lie impulsively when they do lie. Take little kids for example, if you catch them with their hands in the cookie jar and you ask them what they're doing, most often they'll say "nothing :)" and need to be pressed to admit what they're doing. If anything, the threshold to tell the truth is often higher in cases of social pressure than the threshold to tell a lie. Unless, of course, a person has matured normally and does not act like an actual child.
WDYM, don't you know everyone goes through a second puberty at 30??
This Guys superiority Complex is so huge, he can never show even the slightest amount of fault. He has to know everything, he has to be smart in everything and most importantly right.
Sad to see.
Yeah, idk if it causes him to be a bad actor, or the things he is saying are absurd, how and why would you assume a map in a 2d game.
The guy snorted coke for 4+ years on RUclips live and now actually thinks he's not only some wizard, no he's THE wizard 😂 "Second puberty" my buttcheeks
I have known people like that, my hunch is they started to lie about things, and they have done this for so many years, they no longer can admit they have been lying for decades about a lot of things.
Can't forgive him for taking a punch at Stop Killing Games tbh
The "wait for it" is always such a giveaway.
Implying Pirate already knows for certain what is going to happen and is he is excited that his audience is about to witness what is coming.
Me: "Okay, now let's hold on a second. Just because this guy faces a lot of backlash right now, let's not make shit up about everything... It's a puzzle game, I've solved puzzles by chance before, maybe he did as well?"
PirateSoftware : "Okay listen, I have this weird idea about changing my PC settings to the date of Groundhog Day"
Me: * SIGH *
PirateSoftware : "And then we're going to - [...]"
Me: "There's MORE?? WHO'S BELIEVING THIS???"
lol
honestly, the groundhog thing didnt sound toooo outlandish in the beginning, atleast if you for some godforsaken reason know that the thing even was a groundhog, groundhog day is decently well known where im from, so being primed to try stuff like that in a notorious puzzle game isnt too crazy, but holy fuck, everything afterwards is just so bizarre, how could get those things without any time to think, what a bozo, didnt even have the decency to pretend like he has to think, or feign ignorance and say that he tangentially heard how some smart people tried solving this thing already
@@inferno4165 Spot on!
@@inferno4165 I grew up on Metal Gear, and loved classic comedies like Groundhog Day, and still wouldn't of thought to do that. Also, I'm that one idiot that thought that was just a bear chilling in a cave.
@@inferno4165 Yeah, one chance solve is lucky. That many in quick (real quick) succession is not believable.

Grapplr faked all his gameplay over the years and had his brother, Henry Cavill, play for him.

@@relicscraps and this didn't even happen btw, he made that up to make himself seem really smart too
The Dire Maul wipe is way worse than just "eh whatever". This guy plays mage like someone who has been playing for a day or two, and claims that classic is easy because he does mythic+ raids, all the while acting high and mighty talking down to new players and maintaining this pompous attitude about his own skill. He can't even do basic stuff. Not only that he doubled, tripled, quadrupled down on it on twitter defending himself and not apologizing, then whined off to another game where he got bullied for being pompous and shit there.
We need someone like Karl Jobst to do a comprehensive breakdown of this, it would be hilarious.
He's going to have to download all of pirates old videos before they get deleted, but yeah he would be the guy to really be able to spot nonsense and also be furious about it he's still going through his case with Silly Bitchell too.
I was going to comment this, I 100% agree
Yep. That would be hilarious. And in my oppinion justified. Karl deleted that MH Alatreon girl.
Pirate here is also falsely claiming a blind run. This blind run is a slap in the face of the animal well Community who worked weeks to solve these puzzles.

This is what made me suspicious of him ages ago. I ran across some short that touched upon a toppic I knew a little more about than the average person. He was just blatantly wrong in that short. No biggie, people mess up. So I check the comment section, to look inside, probably someone already threw out that he is wrong... nope, just so many people glazing him.

@@LoLo25A all his content seems heavily moderated. Even in videos like this there are always some number of people coming in to defend him. Idk if he's paying people or theres some bot service or what.
@@pewpin1039 yeah, the first time I noticed, I was like "ok maybe he's trying to oversimplify it and is getting it wrong because of it". and then he started talking about network architectures, and didn't even know what server authoritive actually meant, claiming it meant literally everything could only exist on a remote server farm, and that is was used because 'muh cheating' and i realised: no way has this guy ever touched a multiplayer game as a programmer in his life.

His position was "THE HEAD"
He was a QA tester nepo hire thanks to his dad pulling some strings. He claims he left blizzard and reapplied later so got hired on his own merit but 😂

Wait until the bigger channels stumble across, and look into, the name Maldavius Figtree and you'll see that there are huge amount
"Maldavious Figtree" look it up :^)
The best part about pirate's revelation concerning the poster is that when he says
15:08 "this is 4 blocks wide and that part of the poster/map is blocks wide" it wasn't 4 blocks wide.
12:30 He found the 2x2 wingdings and immediately made it 4 blocks wide. So why the hell would this be connected somehow? You made the 2x2 wingdings nonsense 4 blocks wide because you looked up the solution.
This video is a 7 hour long edited video of the original 85 Hour Long stream.

way glad people are recognizing his voice changer lol
@@Im-No-body why is his voice so easily recognizable and sounds the same in other mics tho ? in interviews from litteral years ago lol ? adjusting the EQ on a mic is not even close to the same as a voice changer LMAO, if thats the case then EVERY SINGLE music ever made is completely fake to your standards. My speakers have EQ on them , so it sounds GOOD, not so it sounds fake lol. adjusting the bass and other EQ to make your voice sound good is literally just good audio tips ?? im not trying to say nothing he does was ever faked at all, but this particular nit-pick is hilariously misinformed LMAO
idk about the voice. he went to streamer awards and sounded the same. if mic was adjusted then valkyrae and the other guy would have sounded different as well
@@SazokuNamikaze Ive seen the streamer awards clip and he sounds much more squeaky than his personal stream voice. Definitely bass boosted on his own stuff
Disclaimer. I'm not a Doctor. I have never worked at Blizzard, and I have only 1 month in Game Dev (I hear 20 years is minimum).
Are you a physician though?
Have u stayed at a holiday inn express recently though?
@ ...what?
Well, You watching a reaction of a 7 hour edited long play. Have you watch the full 50+ hour stream of the game where he tries each puzzle multiple times and even do multiple re run just to make sure he find every possible puzzles?
Don't worry, making furry art in your basement like Jason 'thor' also counts as game dev experience I've been told.
Although now that I mention it I don't think that helps.
Just a bit more info on that secret ending, the dev understimated that the community could brute force the puzzle in weeks, he expected people to take years to solve it
Or just walk into a room “look chat look, it’s about the number of blocks”
well he probably never thought pirate software would play it, because then he would've expected it be solved in a couple hours
@@GrappLr The guide with the community solution came out the same day he did the stream

All of this because the guy ratted out of a dungeon, legit nothing would have happened if he just admited to panick, but no, you have to just be right everytime, even in a blind playthrough xdd
he legit turned around, thought about helping, decided "no, this guy dared to talk back to me" and ran away again. It was 100% malicious
@feluto7172 yeah legit, not even talk back, he was already ratting out just because they miss played, like how fcking petty do you have to be
@@omega7057 Gonna be honest, you get your calls that messed up, hear people are still fighting. Turn thinking I might be able to help em, and then hear that they have another pack. Na, I'm bailing too in that situation. Pretty sure I saw the rogue did too.
@ Nah the rogue stayed, he's a noob at the game so he only stayed and didn't do much, but he tried to save the others
Pirate just started running with a class that is able to help his team escape, yet he refused to help and wasted all his mana to seem like he "couldn't do anything"
And that's not even an issue but he basically says that he had no choice but to leave them
There’re some things were it’s like “yeah they were fuking around and found an secret” but getting something that thousands of ppl took weeks to figure out in one playthrough is suspicious
especially step by step, one after the other bullseyes with 0 errors, zero extra experimentation. its just "oh i have an idea... oh it worked perfectly... oh i have another idea... it worked perfectly again"
But does atleast one of those thousand of players are hacker with dad who works at blizzard?
Genuinely, if people realized how unlikely this was they would all know he is a fraud (which is becoming increasingly more obvious). I genuinely think Dream's speedruns had a higher likelihood of not being faked than this playthrough being blind.
Here’s the most glaring issue, a person with that level of ability to solve puzzle and code would be enticed into fields of immeasurable importance. Streaming games and making games that never come out would essentially be a waste of life and ability.
The best one is the secret he didn't get and he figures it out by just drawing it out of nowhere.
it's cathartic to see people realizing him being a full-blown narcissist and pathological liar
I can't stand that people still defend his voice changer even though he accepted an award publicly last year with a way higher voice
That first clip alone, about the groundhog. I mean... what the fuck was that? That does not just come to you out of nowhere, instantly. Nor would it necessarily be something you would resort to doing. Who would even reason like that?
You see a volcano in-game... oh, let me quickly change the date to May 20th. With May 20th 1883 being a rather important date in the field of volcanoes. Yeah... I mean, what? It's not an automatic given to have to change your system clock.
You can tell this guy is not very smart because he doesn't understand how smart people think. Being smart doesn't mean you see some kind of pixelated animal that looks like it could be anything and go ''yep, that's a groundhog which is a reference to Groundhog Day so I need to change my system date to groundhog day and something will happen.'' That's not smart. This is fail RP. Imagine doing this every time you see some kind of weird animal in a game. See a crocodile in a game? Well, it's time to change the date to when Crocodile Dundee came out. Didn't work, let's try the actor's birthday. Didn't work, let's try the release date of the home release. Didn't work, let's try the date when the sequel was released.

This is just splitting hairs and if we're going to argue the most insignificant detail, he still loses.
Eagles are common in America, that doesn't mean that an American is going to set his date to the release of the first Eagles album every time he sees an eagle in a game. This is nonsense and anyone telling you otherwise is gaslighting.

He can solve all these puzzles without thinking but can't figure out why it was his fault that his 2 guildmates died, absolute cinema.
Lmao I fucking love how each day, another lie or bad story about him is uncovered.
The only thing worse than the smartest person in the room is the person that really HAS to be the smartest person in the room...
Especially when he's the only person in a room, broadcasting to hundreds of people who are in their own rooms, presumably by themselves?
Was he actually serious about this playthrough? It just feels very familiar to the way I interact with my kids.
"I wonder what would happen if I flick this switch. You wanna try it? Oooohhh look, the light went on, that's craaaaaazy"
I gotta be real... I enjoyed Pirates clips and would watch his shorts often. The WoW drama was annoying but whatever I can get the God complex from someone with his history with that game... But the Ashes clips, and this right here... I'm done watching that dude.
It's wild because nobody watches him expecting God tier gaming. The writing is on the wall and his channel will soon be in major decline. All because of his need to be the smartest guy in the room and refusal to admit mistakes and/or being bested by puzzles (that everyone alive was bested by).
No doubt he accessed the Dark Souls DLC on his first run blind. People watch blind runs to enjoy the struggle and see others battle the same challenges they had... Dude legit stole that joy from his audience.
I’d say he also stole the joy from himself. Beating outer wilds on stream with my community was such an amazing experience. To trade that just to flex that I’m smarter than I am… it’s a waste of
He's 100% playing up "his history" though. Like the whole "I banned 2 million people when I owrked at Blizzard".. he wasn't a GM, he couldn't ban anyone. No idea what else he played up, but I doubt all he's telling about his history is very legit at this point
Pirate already lost 200k followers on Twitch, from 1.2 mil to 1.0 mil. Don’t know about you, but I am curious how low that number can go.
Generally, nowhere. Then people forget, or stop caring. Remember, all of Asmon's predator friends suffered 0 consequences.
@@SeasoningTheObese What predator friends?
Nothing strange here this is what happens when pirate has a full mana bar.
Blizzard needs to Nerf mana bars. Should never start an encounter over 65% mana (oh wait, 40%, right?).
I enjoy pirate software's shorts, but what got me to not like him was when he stopped people from signing a petition to allow consumers to prevent companies in shutting down old games. That was already a red flag for me.
I wouldn't give a shit that he looks up stuff beforehand if he didn't act like he was the ultimate God-tier gamer, and specifically say he's doing it without help. I look up shit all the time, but I admit I'm a dumbass. The sad thing, I bet he is probably a very intuitive gamer, but acting better than you actually are, just makes you look like a poser.
Pirate should play Fez. That game has some notoriously difficult puzzles so it would be a benefit to the community that he should grace us with his superior intellect and show us mere mortals how puzzles are really solved.
First time I saw the guy my gut told me he was slimy. It doesn't surprise me that he is a fraud.
yup I knew he was a fake when he started spouiting things about coding while knowing absolutely nothing about it. On top of that he kept calling himself thor and it just rubbed me wrong. His name is not thor. It is jason.
I can’t wait for him to come out and say it was all a social experiment and he was trolling everyone and he’s actually laughing at all of us behind the scenes ect. Because you know he can’t just take the L. He has infinite ego and he’s not capable of admitting he was wrong. 💀
What’s really funny for me was the fact that he is not really playing the game. Just casually solving a secret ending right at the start in a blind playthrough.
Pirate is like Seong Gi-hun in Squid Game season 2; he's played these games before.
he worked at groundhog day for 7 years, you wouldnt understand
Thor “figuring out” the poster and that look on his face, reminds me when Nicholas Cage figured out you need to put lemon juice on the declarations of independence and heat it with a hair dryer
The skeletons are just marching out of the closet now.
This dude has drama in other games also, Eve Online and Second Life! his name was MALDAVIUS!
Narcissists always cause drama wherever they go.
and outer wilds, path of exile, WOW and even more
Don't forget about Ashes of Creation. and soon to be PoE
so... he fakes blind playtroughs.. fakes coding.... fakes mage skill.... and he is a furry...
makes ya wonder, just how many of his stories are made up

People like him will ALWAYS tell you what they are doing by portraying them in a bad light so you are less likely to think they are guilty of doing exactly that, because that'd make them look bad, right? That's the psychology behind it. He's done this with WoW, almost word for word what he ended up doing the opposite of, and also with Animal Well's puzzles.
Interesting, never thought of that.
Cheaters do that pretty frequently, they are called "closet cheaters"
"Where the hell's the fun in that, bud?" /annoyed face
He often uses "bud" when he's annoyed, passive aggressive and condescending. He used to go by Maldavius in EVE Online and had a reputation for being thorny under pressure.
Pssst his dad has 25 years at Blizzard he doesn't even touch a keyboard anymore telekinetic.
But can't figure out how much mana it costs to cast frost nova after playing mage for 20 years

solving puzzles that a community of players takes weeks in a matter of hours is one thing... but casting rank 1 forst nova? that's next level stuff
Bro i have played this game so many hours and i dont know where tf im going bcs is so complicated. And my man solved everything in one go. Now that's gaming right there
It is sad that some people get famous by acting like a good guy but in reality they aren't. Pirate is the prime example of someone lying about everything and developing such a god complex that he gets dunning kruger effect and cognitive dissonance to a level which no normal human beeing can even comprehent.
Can't wait for a blind La Mulana playthrough where he beats the game in one sitting.
I knew Blizzard devs were clueless, never take accountability and ignore community feedback but it's kind of surreal to see it wielded so shamelessly. At this point I would be unphased if he pulled out a bottle of stolen "milk" and drank it on stream.
He's not even a Blizzard Dev. He worked for Blizzard because his dad got him the job but he never did development work.
it goes deeper and deeper and im all here for it
he banned me from his twitch when he was going in on elon for cheating.. oh the irony lol, funny thing is i called him a bezos shill, didnt even defend elon lol
I've disliked this guy from the moment I first heard him. You have no idea how cathartic it is seeing all of this.
We should keep in my that everyone's fake, boisterous, lies, refuses to admit mistakes, shifts accountability, refuses to hear people out that they've screwed over, ... list never ends. me included. It's the fact we take the time and save the space mentally to admit our faults, try to right our wrongs, ... that keeps us from becoming like him.
man watching him solving this its like watching Neo in matrix he just sees the numbers and data with his naked eye thats why he can figure out things in matter of seconds
Were getting more Maldavius Figtree true color before Gta 6
The biggest pirate simp is pirate. Every photo in the house is him. Mirrors around his bed so he can watch himself go to sleep, and an alarm clock with his voice telling him he has amazing things to do today and don't forget you worked at Blizzard.
Child's play for Mr Robot himself. He literally invented cryptology, so a juvenile puzzle like this is trivial for a man of such intellect.
I usually don't get annoyed if someone has a big ego, but combine this with narcissism + zero countability. People who can't ever say they were wrong is one thing, but Pirate seems to be a pathological liar who can't take any criticism at all. These are just tiny things, but start looking at everything else, often they keep lying on everything else.
I found out one similar person in real life. They caught stealing a lot of stuff even tho they were actually rich. It looked like they did it just because they could. Zero countability and lies, lies. Caught on camera and first reaction was pay under the table, so there were no cops involved. Not saying Pirate does this, but these type of personalities are a major flag for me.
I didn't like him, but I thought it might have just been my bias against some of his takes.
Guess I should have trusted my intuition like he did to solve this puzzle 😅
😂This is so funny when you pair it with the “you have a god complex” clip

everything he found or thought of kinda makes sense, even finding the poster on the wall which clearly stands out from everything in that room. My eyes went straight to it and I've never played this game once.
However, when you said he figured out that fountain was a barcode, that to me is where it went batshit insane. Like, there is no way.
It's the reverse for me, the barcode was crazy obvious (due to having pattern recognition for barcode start/end sequence), but the poster? Could be straight up anything, I'd first try to assume color values are important. It reminds me of binary memory regions map, could be so many things, yet he immediately "knows" it's an alignment tool.
@@Algoinde what you two are experiencing is the exact same thing that the AW community was experiencing. Multiple people from different walks of life, different expertise and professions, allowing them to spot things that others might not. Getting together and finding stuff that others didn't and then sharing that information with each other. All culminating in solving the end puzzle and all done by a lot of people, in several weeks. Roach Noware solved it in a total of 41 hours.
I guess I was too sleepy most of the time, and didn't realize, I feel used and deceived. Thanks for showcasing this.
It took me extremely short time of watching Thor to understand what kind of person he is and his psychological pathology.
He is in reality a very mentally ill person.
He fits all the boxes of being a person with an extreme narcissistic personality disorder and he also shows the classic trait that many with NPD have and that is him fearing to be exposed and afraid of losing his sense of superiority or being seen as vulnerable.
Many people think all narcissists are confident about themselves, but the reality is that many of them are worried and even scared of this all the time.
This is why many narcissists tend to be so called "snowflakes" and they can go to extremely lengths to make sure that their image is not shattered.
Thor's reactions and how he tends to ban or/and block every single person that criticize him, disagrees with him or says something he doesn't like, confirms this.
Specially when he feels that his self made fantasy image is threatened.
He also shows an extreme need for having power and he seems to enjoy to use/abuse whatever power he has or thinks he has.
It is very obvious that he gets a kick out of banning people in his chat, threatening people that he will get them banned from games and a desire to be a guild leader with many minions that do his bidding and adore him.
And we can see the same with how he acts in his streams towards his chat and fans, that also confirms the rush he gets with this feeling of power.
Him willing to cheat to get admiration from others, is also typical of people with his psychological pathology.
They will lie, cheat, steal and do all sorts of other morally questionable or even illegal acts to achieve this.
Some even do extremely deplorable acts.
His grandiose delusions also fits perfectly in him having NPD as it is very typical that they are co-occurring mental disorders.
My clear advice to all is to not have a friend or a GF/BF/wife/husband suffering from this.
Try to avoid these people as much as you can.
When people expose themselves this hard it gets to the point where I actually start feeling bad for them
