Knowing nothing about how Twitter works, my guess is that the harassers are abusing some kind of report function. Seen it in other places, mostly games.

Oh, you are right, he was been at the company for over 20 years but CEO for less than one.

Well, working too much will also generate a lot of stress, that might add to a bunch of factors that could lead to suicide. Having said that, he was at the head of the company for more than 20 years, so it would be weird to say he couldn’t handle the workload, so I doubt it was anything work-related.

I think I played this game for more hours than any other game in my life. The story was amazing, and it’s also probably the only FF game where I actually liked every single one of the characters.

Yeah, the more I read of the article, the more I kept asking myself “what is there even to discuss? The guy even admitted it, I say cut him out and move on”

The Japanese people will not rest until they make an actual full sized, moving Gundam, are they? I mean, they keep making bigger ones every time they are done with the last one they built.

Yeah, I went to check the first time it crashed and my computer lands between what they call “competitive” and “ultra RTX” requirements.

This time around they will surely be able to monetize any mods of the show without much hassle, or at least claim them in Youtube.

I’m still a little salty that I can’t even get this game to launch. The game crashes back to desktop between 10 and 30 seconds after launching it. Can’t even make it past the main menu.

The cynic in me just keeps thinking “it’s too late for this, that company already closed it’s doors, and the people at the top that fed that atmosphere will move from that cushy job to the next one on another company, and the cycle will continue”.

Accessibility issues aside (not everyone can get their hands on a particular game, worse if it’s exclusive to a console), games would be a great learning tool for many different subjects. There are A LOT of profound gaming experiences out there, and there are a lot of subjects that could be easier to talk about once…

Racist people are exactly know for the ability to control their racist outbursts.

and while his colleagues stood by and did nothing.

I played it for a couple of hours, but it was hard to get into the story... if there was one to begin with. I remember just rushing through quests as if it were an MMO kind of deal, where you are just told to go do something for a reward, and you just go do it, with little interest as to why you are doing it…

In all honesty, the whole good bye post seems so very well thought out and articulate, that I’m surprised the same person was responsible for the offending tweet.

My response to the people saying stuff like that is: we can still pay attention to this while reading about games journalism in every other article. This isn’t Congress, we can actually follow more than one train of thought a day.

I’m surprised that a 17 year old kid is the one pushing against this. Do older people in Japan simply not care about anything like this happening? Is it because they think it doesn’t directly affect them.

DOING EVERYTHING I CAN

It’s a nice thing to do, but considering today’s headlines, I’d be concerned about their quality:

Got a better title for this one:
