that dude has gone full on mask-off sony-hating since the abk merger closed. he has family working at abk so he might have some sort of skin in the game now.
full on clown takes include dumping on insomniac for messing up the cuban flag, saying that playstation first party studios are everything wrong with game industry writing, saying that people should rethink their purchasing on sony platforms since they "don't have their licensing house in order" after the debacle with disney pulling its products from playstation (this is a common problem across the industry and a direct consequence of intellectual property laws that Hoeg has personally defended and championed in the past), also unabashed praise for starfield (which is a mediocre game) and a marked disinterest in any games that aren't microsoft. He claims to like rpgs yet hasn't played the best RPG in a decade+ in baldur's gate.
On some level Richard Hoeg has turned into a closeted Florian Mueller, maybe a little more composed and less insane-sounding, but equally as insidious and intellectually dishonest.
