Hecko!

It's time for your obligatory Minecraft drama update!!! NO YOU CAN'T LEAVE YOU ALREADY CLICKED THE THREAD!

And this time it doesn't involve your truly (for once)

Today's story starts a couple months back in November 2024

Let me introduce you to Iskall85

Iskall85 is a popular Swedish Minecraft Youtuber, whos been making YouTube videos since 2006. In fact he was an original playtester for Minecraft, even having his MC account personally gifted to him by the games creator (and /r/drama mod) Notch!

Iskall is most known for Minecraft videos on the 'Hermitcraft' Server, which is a collaborative private survival server which several YouTubers are part of and make videos on. Some of the Popular YouTubers who play are MumboJumbo, Grian, Ethoslab ect.

In fact Iskall was one of the more popular members with his Hermitcraft episodes regularly clocking above 400k views each, and rightfully so as he had been making content on the server as a member since 'Season 4' (Feb 2016), That's nearly a decade of content being made with his fellow members.

And it's worth noting for those unaware, that Hermitcraft is extremely culturally prominent within Minecraft as a whole. They are friends with a lot of the development staff, probably have played a small hand in suggesting new features for the game. And generally very highly respected in the Minecraft space.

(especially in compared to their other Minecraft YouTuber contemporaries like that fricking butthole Gerg)

Hermitcraft also presents itself as everyone involved not just being collogues but genuine friends off camera as well. WHOLESOME CHUNGUS

So it came to everyone as a massive shock when the Official Hermitcraft X account posted this vague update that Iskall85 has resigned from Hermitcraft after some mysterious "allegations" (As well as another member called Stressmonster, but more on her later)

pic.twitter.com/WApKgZDPQx

— Hermitcraft (@hermitcraft_) November 23, 2024

NOW I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE ALL THINKING!!!! What would make his long term friends and colleagues drop him like a fricking BRICK so suddenly! It has to be really fricking bad.

Oh.... Well that's a change for once.

But have no fear, white ran through foids are here!

A few hours later, these private complains became public with the release of "Kass' Statement".

Who is Kass? Some 30 year old mod of Iskall's groomercord server. Here's a link

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1paBcGkIfDWCyHcxhDrdhEGGvtpJL8yAqBR3HCKNK7DU/edit?tab=t.0

Now I know you dramatards, You hate reading EFFORTPOST? MORE LIKE BORING POST!

Basically Iskall85 flirted with this b-word in dm's (HOW DARE HE!)

Even after flirting with her, she never said stop, or im not into you.

In-fact Iskall asks her to get Skype so he can continue being flirty and she obliges (Clear manipulation from a position of power)

And despite this foid complaining that hes being heckin sexually active towards her, she then complains that he STOPPED messaging her

Somehow she paints this as manipulative evil behavior that BREAKS HER.... and she's right #BelieveAllWomen #Gerg2025YearOfGerg

A couple other statements were made by anonymous accounts, but confirmed by the female making the first statement (NON SUS AT ALL)

https://pastebin.com/Ln3nVRkq (BORING TEXT SAYS NOTHING WORTHWHILE, JUST ISKALL IS LE BAD)

https://x.com/starssoul0808/status/1860827397534159283 (DELETED TWEET LITTERALLY AS IM WRITING THIS!!!)

(from archive.is)

If your asking if that's it? Yep! that's it!

That evil fricker Iskall forgot his fricking place as a Minecraft Youtuber. YOU WILL NOT HAVE S*X, YOU ARE KEN DOLL

In response what did his long time 'friends' and fellow youtubers do in response to this silly claim of what he does in private?

IMMEDIATLY DROP HIS BUTT!

they gave him 90 mins to respond upon receiving the messages to which Iskall didn't and then dropped him from all branding and the server.

• -MumboJumbo recalled Merchandise featuring references to him

-An episode of a podcast he was on was deleted.

-And Grian (another member) Changed The title and thumbnail of the last 6 YEARS of videos to remove any reference or image of Iskall.

• The final reveal when this all went down was that Stressmonster (That other youtuber that quit when he was removed) was most likely fricking Iskall behind the scenes, people found out that her name was also registered to the same residential property as Iskall in Sweden (Shes from the UK)

So many people assumed she left because she found out Iskall had been cheating on her with groomercord mods of all people.

And that's where it laid. UNTIL LIKE 6 HOURS AGO!

iskall uploaded this video "I was Cancelled"

Where he complains about he's cancellation, reveals the 90 min time limit they gave him, as well as some problems it caused for other projects he had going on.

The biggest question was in the comments though

Stressmonster is defending him? Which MAKES THE WHOLE SITUATION EVEN STRANGER???? WHY DID SHE QUIT THEN?

Why did hermitcraft (which i will remind you he worked with for nearly a decade) DROP HIM SO FAST!

Minecraft is full of autism truly.

Time for the xitter seethe

stopped 35 seconds in.

iskall85, you are a sick man. you are nearly 40 years old and yet you cannot take responsibility NOR accountability for your actions. quit painting yourself as the victim. you abused your power over your victims. stop acting like you didnt pic.twitter.com/dvkbq1URrc

I mean he does have a point

— Moon (@Moonlight2095) January 31, 2025

We shouldent do guilty until proven innocent

But you didnt prove your innocent though

Absolutely disgusting behavior. I hope all victims may find their peace and iskall85 should GO TO HECK jesus fricking christ https://t.co/goQJvrE73r

This would have never happened to him if he wasn't fat and also gay. Straggots cant help themselves.

Minecraft Autism prevails above all else.

UPDATE: https://rdrama.net/post/338501/quick-update-for-iskall85-controversy-marseybooba

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3130060/Move_Out_Manor/

The game that the post is about.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3336610/Ghostly_Acres/

The new game.

Going on visuals alone this is actually a significant upgrade that they should be happy about. I can't say much about the rest though. It's a little sad that the talent they have is being funneled into the trash. There's talk of "market research." Surely asking anyone in their life if they'd be willing to spend any amount of time or money on a puzzle game where you push boxes around would get them the results that it took nine months to find.

"We did all the things you're supposed to do: Steam page launch, Next Fest, festivals, but still have minimal sales." When they say minimal they're talking less than 100 sales. Likely less than a dozen genuine. It has one real review. The other isn't even a friend, it's a small youtuber who received the game for free. Not a single associate of this team was willing to play and review this game.

When I started making these posts it was to point and laugh. Now the thought of multiple people spending their free time producing content that likely didn't even cover the $100 steam submission fee makes me

I wonder if a Caleb Hammer-type show where "legitimate" devs pitch their idea to a flamboyant host would go well. Ideally the content would have a biggest-loser "where are they now" segment but almost every time it would be - "faded away into obscurity, released nothing."

SEC Confirms Game Service Roblox Part of 'Active Investigation

• Agency withholds details, saying release may harm efforts

• Company has faced questions about its reported player data

Responding to a Freedom of Information Act request, the commission said in a letter Friday that it couldn't share correspondence between staffers referencing Roblox, saying it could cause "harm to the ongoing enforcement proceeding."

"We have confirmed with Division of Enforcement staff that there are responsive emails between Enforcement staff referencing Roblox and that these emails are a part of an active and ongoing investigation," the commission said.

Bloomberg News couldn't confirm the subject of the investigation. Roblox didn't respond to requests for comment, and the SEC declined to make any additional comment.

Hunterbrook Media reported in November that Roblox was under investigation by the SEC, citing Freedom of Information Act requests. Hunterbrook cited an October letter from the commission saying it was withholding documents "which could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement activities." Its affiliate, Hunterbrook Capital, had a short position in the shares.

In October, the now-defunct short-seller Hindenburg Research published a report on child-safety concerns at Roblox and also alleged that the company had inflated its metrics, including the number of users who regularly play Roblox games and the amount of time they spend on average on the platform....

The video-game company has faced scrutiny over children's safety on the platform. Since 2018, At least two dozen people have been arrested by police in the US, accused of abusing or abducting victims they'd met or groomed using Roblox, Bloomberg News reported in July.

Shares of Roblox fell 11% on Thursday after the company reported slower-than-expected growth in daily users of its service. It reported 85.3 million active users as of year end.

https://old.reddit.com/r/Adulting/comments/1ij2pq9/time_stamp_vol_2_more_context/

/u/No_Excitement5215, you were fired for being a peepee, not for being late. I've done this too with people. It's way easier to fire you on a technicality than to go through the rigamarole of HR bs. Your former coworkers are probably thrilled you're gone. I feel bad for your preggo gf. Judging by your posts, you're going to split the second she shits that thing out.

Have any of you heard of Unknown 9?

If you haven't- I don't blame you. I haven't either. Apparently it's a 4-month old game developed by Reflector Entertainment who also made... uhh this game and it's DLCs.

This screenshot gives a lot away but fear not, it was published by Bandai Namco, the guys who made the Dark Souls^TM of videogames These guys know a good investment when they see it, and at 50 eurobucks (USD to EUR is almost 1:1 at the time of writing !eurochads), a price comparable to that of God of War 2022 (50 EUR, 95% rating), HOI 4 (50 EUR, 90% rating) and Mount & Blade: Bannerlord II *editor's note: why are there so many MLP emojis when querying 'horse' (50 EUR, 87% rating(should be 100)), it is sure to deliver the same experience, right?

Well, from the screenshot you might have noticed that the ratings are mediocre: 49%. But that does not tell the whole story.

Unknown 9 currently has 7 concurrent players , 11 player 24-hour peak and a 285-player all-time peak [1]. This means it is mogged by the likes of Gollum 2023 at 758 all-time high [2], 6 year old rockstar game Red Dead: Redemption 2 at almost double the rating [3], a 2023 unity slavshit game Contraband Police at almost double the rating and half the price [4] and absolutely mogged by LEWDAPOCALYPSE, which has double the concurrent players, double the rating, and 1/50th of the price [5].

IGN gave Unknown 9 a 9(-4) rating [6], so is it really that bad?

Looks pretty bad, but is this the lowest we can go? Just some failed garbage from an upcoming studio, but is that it? Can't we do worse?

Heck no! It was in the works for at least 4 years, and was supposed to be a tans-media project, "including video games , film , and books (!bookworms), for example. Unknown 9 was conceptualized as an ongoing series, spanning podcasts , comics , and even a web series , many of which have already been released." [7]. So you've been laughing at Concord for having an Amazon episode despite being a dead game- well, you've seen nothing yet kid. This shit was supposed to be massive, at least according to the cited source (I didn't check further (yes how could you tell, I work in academia )). It was supposed to be the next fricking star wars by the looks of things, expecting to bank on their notoriety to create the equivalent to Netflix's Witcher [7] (which is not something to be proud of tbh). While we have no numbers on the project costs, one might imagine that a AAA game with massive marketing like that would've cost a lot. While we do not know how much exactly the project did cost, it is hardly believable that some unknown studio with 0 releases might have funded it. Indeed, the studio is owned by the publishers- Bandai Namco, who can probably afford to throw money around [8]. Looking at their website and LinkedIn is pretty funny as well, considering that they have announced that they will cease support for the game [8].

But you don't have to trust me, you can view the official gameplay trailer posted on Playstation's account and come to your own conclusions:

The lore/narrative trailer, which is just as stupid, can be found at

TL;DR?

Well, it's about a brown woman with supernatural abilities . Kind of like Forespoken from 1 2 years ago if anyone remembers that.

"Unfortunately, part of Hoerdt's statement confirmed several staff members would be made redundant, including back-office employees, and given severance packages, further health benefits, access to counseling services, and "proactive" career planning support." [7]. Lmao imagine getting free counselling from a company that fired you. I would probably take that as an insult, equivalent to one of those "reddit cares" messages . One might accuse me of using a chuddy source, but the same website compliments Unknown 9's use of "stepping powers", which states that "Stepping is the ability to project one's mind into the consciousness of another, by way of the Fold. While Stepping, one has access to the weaponry, strength, and intellect of a given vessel, and may fully control their actions." [9]. A totally true statement which has never been done before.

Here's Cr1tikal AKA Charlie AKA penguinz0 explaining it probably better than I do (it's the weekend and I've had several drinks already ):

He quotes the investment value into the IP at 100 million $ [citation needed]

In conclusion: 1) gaming in 2025 is dead, do not bother. 2) Nominative Determinism is true- the game was titled Unknown 9, and it remained unknown. For anyone running any sort of business- watch what you name your product.
