As someone who was let down by Jirard's choice to double down and threaten his accusers, I actually don't think he needs to be removed. If anything, the fact that his role in the game is to take donations becomes more of a snarky meta commentary. I get that Sabotage studio is probably really hurt by this given their close relationship with IndieLand, and they have every right to do whatever they want with their art, but experiencing the irony here should be preserved and available to the public.

I heard that it's an internet joke that his character asks for donations, in fact what he actually says in-game is something else.

I got to the part where he asked for building plans- seemed like donations would be the next part of the quest but my Game Pass sub ran out ๐Ÿ˜…

I get if they dont want an homage character to become a biting satire of a former business partner. Especially if they dont want someone to not get the bit, and think less of the game for having a known scammer cameo in it

Not that its really even their fault, seeing as this came out before the charity mess did
