If the studio doesn’t fire that developer, they stand behind him and his message.

ashley Cooper was a racist asshat who was lead writer for Space Marine 2. She said some anti white racist stuff on Twitter, the company fired her, and then released a great game.

Absolutely 100% correct.

Fair enough.

my guess is Microsoft doesn't even see the DEI shit, since its baked in everywhere there now. Its just simply math, games that aren't gonna make back their costs by selling on PS5/switch are being shut down, and they aren't even thinking about why their first party pipeline system is so fucking broken.

they've spent billions on studios and first party games for a decade now and have so very little to show for it. Neither does Sony but at least they have uncharted, spiderman, TLOU, etc as legit system sellers. Halo is cooked, no one gives a shit about Gears of War, and the few games they have put out mostly are invisible to everyone (Hellblade etc)

i mean look at this shit LOL

So far the layoffs have impacted CoD teams, Half the Forza Team, Blizzard and WoW (Knew that was coming - fucking cucks, and their union protected QA department - easy pickens for who to lay off and get rid of - QA with a fucking union is laughable). Looks like MS sees the writing on the wall and is cleaning house of these rejects. Hopefully Obsidan gets nailed.

MS needs game developers not political con arists forcing shit narratives.

Now, time to fire Sarah Bond.
Do you have a reliable source about layoffs at Blizzard's WoW? I'm not questioning what you wrote but firing QA people after 11.7 release sounds interesting :D

They made Joanna Dark (the characters actual name, oddly enough!) hella masculine with a Patrick Warburton jaw line. That's just the promotional image. The rot, I'm sure, is down to the bone. Much like how the remake for Dead Space did have better graphics and sound design, but added a bunch of modern audience nonsense to it: removed Arthur's helmet, showed his face, made the cast diverse compared to the original, and made the cast part of the rainbow mafia.

The only remakes I can think of that didn't do this were RE2-4 Remake, but even then, they toned things down a bit. Even the remaster for Modern Warfare added in women Navy Seals (which isn't a thing, btw. No woman has ever passed the entirety of Navy Seals combat training).

that was the zenimax MMO in development since 2018 but i also understand not wanting to put more money into MMOs either
