First of all, a huge thank you to BobVids for the incredible support throughout this whole ordeal. I’m truly grateful to have met him; he’s genuinely a goodsoul. So, thank you so much, Bob!
I’m feeling really down and upset with myself for helping someone like Artur. It bothers me that I let myself be manipulated and deceived. I keep wondering, what could I have done differently to see through him? When he first reached out, as the video details, he completely lied about who he was and his past. I believed he was a new indie developer, and I sincerely wanted to help, because that’s just who I am—I like to help people.
I won’t pretend that this experience hasn’t shaken my trust; it definitely has. I often help indie developers for free, spending hours on calls to offer advice and assistance wherever I can. But this has really knocked my confidence, and I’ll find it hard to trust as freely as I did before.
However, I refuse to let Artur change who I am. I want to continue being the kind person I know I am, and I’ll do my best to move past this.
Lastly, if you’re racist, transphobic, or hateful in any way, I have a simple message: please leave. For everyone facing racism or any form of hate, I am so, so sorry! Do what makes you happy and live your best life, because you deserve it. Love to all of you, and yeah, it’s going to take some time to process all of this!
Hearing this guy say something was not good enough to be in his game is comical. Also I’m from Poland. I am also gay. There is problem with discrimination here, but there is also a lot of good people. This guy is an embarrasment.
A lot of people, especially on YouTube, have a tendency to go softer on the person they’ve been criticizing after the have the opportunity to actually speak to them, and I really respect that you’re refusing to let him off the hook.
I’m still bewildered and horrified over the fact he used leaked audio of a *women getting brutally assaulted in front of her infant on a 911 call* and still thinks he or his terrible game has any merit. Like WHO TF DOES THAT?!
Not to mention people willing to support it because he’s “anti-woke” or sum BS.
I try my best not to swear when I’m online, but this is supremely fucked up. Joe seems like the nicest guy. I genuinely hope Artur changes, but like you said, it could be entirely fake and he’s just placating.
I’ve lied before to protect myself. When I finally realized just how I hurt people, including my friends at the time, I felt like garbage and I vowed to never do it again. I like to believe people can change too, Bob.
liking a video of a black child falling off a roof is beyond fucking horrific. seriously sickening to imagine, how can you live with yourself liking a video of a child in a life-threatening situation. i can’t believe i have to live on the same planet as someone like that
Props to Joe for coming forward 👏
Genuinely, thank you for making this video, Bob. It’s insane to me, how awful one dude can be. Especially after the 911 call thing he did in one of his games
I am from Poland. I live in Poland. His “oh sorry I live in poor little country I no know sorry” excuse had my blood start actually fucking boiling.
Artur, wiem, że będziesz w tych komentarzach. Czy naprawdę tak bardzo nisko nas oceniasz? Oj biedna mała Polska nie wie że transfobia jest zła :((
Good Lord, Joe sounds so… so deeply kind and empathetic.
this is extremely disappointing to watch unfold. I feel bad for Joe getting wrapped up in all this and hope he doesn’t feel less inclined to help struggling devs in the future.
Man, it really sucks that my country is shown in this light, but then again, the people here really are super intolerant for anyone that’s even slightly different. Just wanted to say that there are also many good guys here, unfortunately they are not the ones in power… Thanks for the vid Bob
I hope Artur does change as a person. Even if he keeps making bad bad games he could make good art if he honestly tries to change. I’d rather it be because of lack of talent or developing skills. Not because of harmful ideas in his head. He could make something if he takes the time to change and grow. There is something to tap into and help the space. And if he doesn’t…well, not ever horror story is fictional.
How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?
A thrilling conclusion, thanks for keeping us updated Bob! I believe that people can change, no matter how horrible, but that belief is not owed and must be proven with action.
Definitely a heavy watch, but I’m certainly glad Joe was able to get some type of closure after being caught up in the splash zone. Interesting to see if Artur actually follows through and grows from this.
for the past few years ive looked up to you as a youtuber. not only are your videos just excellently put together, you actually use it to spread kindness and the best for others while calling out those who deserved to be. i feel thats something we dont see much of these days although it really can make all the difference. great work as usual bob <3
something seems off to me about the fact that arthur put an actual real-life 911 call of a sexual assault victim in a game and he handwaves it as “oh I just looked it up on youtube”
Oof now am crying after that
The Artur Saga has honestly opened my eyes to the hellscape that can exist in indie game spaces; I hope the people conned by Artur haven’t had their passion for horror games destroyed by this malicious fraudster and instead find other devs who are at least decent people who deserve the support
