Borderlands 3 released earlier and it has many interesting easter eggs and references. But who would have thought is features a Randy Pitchford easter egg? And that too of a huge scandal.
Earlier this year Randy Pitchford was accused of pedophilia and embezzlement in a lawsuit by Gearbox’s former lawyer Wade Callender.
Callender and Randy’s lawsuit against one another pretty much revolved around the same thing, violation of legal duties at Gearbox.
Callender accused Pitchford of taking a “secret $12 million bonus from Take-Two Interactive.” The former lawyer further accused Pitchford of leaving a USB drive in a Texas restaurant back in 2014 as well as sensitive company documents. The USB drive allegedly had underage porn.
Upon information and belief, Randy Pitchford’s USB drive also contained Randy Pitchford’s personal collection of ‘underage’ pornography.
The Lawsuit also mentioned parties where “adult men exposed themselves to minors, to the amusement of Randy Pitchford.”
Randy Pitchford showed his interest in camgirl porn and descried one video as the following.
It’s a woman who is masturbating and when she has some experience that appears as if she’s having an orgasm, a huge amount of fluid comes out of her vagina.
That’s not a sex worker, this is a fucking magician.
It seems as a reference to his statements, developers at Gearbox added an easter egg in Borderlands 3.

Rumor has it that Randy wasn’t happy about a quest in the game called “Randy Randy,” in which the quest giver asks the vault hunter to “storm a castle and find my hard drive, unless you are the FBI.”
It looks like an attempt to publicly shame Randy. It seems even his own development team is tired of his antics.
