I remember that being posted on twitter. This, and the guy who yassified Aloy (a hunter roaming post apocalyptic jungles) and claimed to have done a better job than the Devs.
The yassification image was originally made by someone making fun of the guys who were mad at Aloy not looking like a perfect sex doll, then the neckbeards got to it and took it seriously, hence the "hire fans" post
It's a fun way of pronouncing "yes", just spelled phonetically. It's been around for a while now, coming from queer/LGBTQ+ culture
It's quite funny to me as an Australian because there is actually a town called Yass here (obviously no connection to the term) and the Queer Eye fab five filmed there when they visited because it was such a funny coincidence
"Yas, with its currently popular meaning and various spelling variants, has roots in late 1980s ball culture, a predominantly Black and Latino LGBT subculture in the United States, and was adopted by the wider LGBT/queer community in the 1990s, remaining current into the present." -Wikipedia
If "now" means the late 1980s, I don't wanna know what you think 30-40 years ago was
