Yeahhh, the defamation lawsuit would only stand up if there was no provocation from the plantiff (ie no contact at all that could constitute a reposte from the defendant) and if it directly hurt his earnings, which it doesn't because his games are so shit an indigenous tribe with no previous contact with technology would be shrugging, saying "2015. Big Metal Boats in Sky. Big Talking Network Everywhere. Moving Pictures that Look Like Life. And the Graphics and Gameplay are This Bad?" - TL;DR he is his own worst enemy.
But seriously. CiG would have to have said that his games were crap and he was a bad developer. They merely said he was a poisonous influence, which is within their rights under the first amendment (lucky they are based in US and not over here in the UK).
D-Bag's lawyer will take it to court so he can wring some cash by the hour from him and drag it on until the circuit court throws it out on technicalities.
