Do I think someone said something really shitty? Yep.
Do I think that it might have been directed at CEO John Riccitiell? Yep.
Do I think that it was “creditable” enough to shut down the Offices for two days? Nope.

I do think that he got his fee fee’s hurt and took the opportunity to try and garner some attention and…

We’re rascals, scoundrels, villans, and knaves
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho
We’re devils and black sheep, really bad eggs
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me

I doubt it. More likely they saw/read someone say something mean and someone (coughex-eaceogough) is just trying to garner some sympathy. Lack of details makes it suspect.

I just lost my job because of this. The company I work for just cannot absorb this kind of price structure and they laid everyone off at the news. Without being able to accurately predict costs they cannot continue. I have a feeling that many other companies are about to go under as well.

I am currently talking to a…

No, we do not want for-profit corporations in charge of who gets medical care or not. It’s pretty simple even for you to understand.

As for the “gov’t” track record on publicly run successful institutions only the willfully ignorant think they aren’t.

Stop watching Faux News.

It’s pronounced Pla-See-Bo.

Oh look a bunch of people commenting on a Kotaku article that don’t know anything about PC’s, PC hardware, video games, optimization in video games, or even the very topic the article is about. I’m shocked! Well not that shocked.

The first fucking comment is a guy telling everyone to “just be happy” with your shitty…

UI problem is a management problem in more ways than one but I will list the most egregious one going back to Skyrim. One of them had an interview waxing poetic about how awesome the Apple Phone UI was. That is why the UI’s look the way they do because it was designed to work like a phone instead of, you know, a PC…

Because Epic gave them a phat sack of cash to use UE5 over there own.

Why, UE5 is such garbage.

Yes, calling the cops on someone for petty theft makes you a narc. And, yes, no one likes a narc. Save your high-horse for something that matters.

Just fucking get over it.

Well, you all wanted more studios to be like Larian, so, here you go less people.

A lot of people are responding to this comment and are, for the most part, right that payment and debts are not the same thing. However, because of things like this (a business refusing to accept cash in favor of another system) is why the Payment Choice Act was introduced to congress and while it has not become a law…

Anyone who grew up with print/TV media and subsequently internet media knows that the only reason a M/Billionaire buys a media company is to prevent any one finding out about how shitty there businesses are, how corrupt, and as a bonus silence criticisms. Musk (along with his slient investors from Arabia/China) didn’t…

YEAH! You tell em. Why play any game what’s the point? I mean how many goombas can you jump on top of really? How many times can you kill Gannon? 1 time is enough! Common everyone join in! Stop playing games!

TFkind of strawberry you been eating?

Translation: I got a bunch of money from you losers and now I don’t have to do it anymore. KTHXBI
