The corrupt CEO of Longdue Games and HyperionDev RIAZ MOOLA, has been using his wealth and the courts to screw over Disco Elysium writer Argo Tuulik and prevent him from making new projects with his studio. Argo was forced to create a GoFundMe to help him pay rent as well as fight the court cases wherein Moola has been blatantly lying under oath.
This morning, Moola used his power to shut down the GoFundMe, which at that point had only been able to reach 20 percent of its goal. He is trying everything in his power to suppress this story and hide his disgusting business practices of bullying people into submission while using their names to increase his own profit.
We can't let Riaz Moola continue to get away with this. Please do anything you can to spread awareness on this because time is running out for Argo Tuulik. Thank you!!
there's a guy on the original reddit post claiming to be Riaz Moola, lmfao, he defends himself by saying that he is nothing but a humble small-business owner
He was the guy who said bad things about Robert Kurvitz and Helen Hindpere in the People Make Games documentary about the Disco Elysium scandal, isn't he? Then People Make Games used those interviews to make it seem like the founders deserved to be bullied out of the company (even though they said that wasn't what they were trying to do, the order and editing made it seem otherwise).
Kind of shows that the true enemy is always the owner class. Maybe he thought he was actually doing good by revealing some toxicity, so I'm not saying he deserves this or anything, sounds like more his honest grievances were manipulated. But let it be known that the capitalists are always the bad guys and not your fellow workers, even if they are dicks on a personal level. They will betray you when it's convenient and not even feel bad about it.
Yes, most critically he later admitted in an article(after being laid off) that he was personally witness to Helen Hindpere receiving verbal abuse on a company call that was so loud that he could hear it from her headphones.
Helen mentions this in the documentary, Tuulik did not, and while he was not the primary figure questioning Hindperes work and leadership, he took a centrist stance between owners and the fired creatives.
Obviously not that any of this makes him deserve being subjected to the crap thats going on, though I do think it makes the goofy radical shit from his studio take on kind of a hollow tone.
If you're gonna be the gamer maoist studio dropping manifestos with "creatives hold up half the sky" type slogans, I think a gamer self crit is warranted too.
And can we get
(REDACTED: SUPER MARIO BROTHER. TAILISM. LIONIZATION. FORBIDDEN WEEGIE.)
on the case?
we're waiting on Argo to either resolve this particular issue or set up another fund somewhere
