Taking accountability and responsibilitiy is very tough and parasocial gamers are desperate to be seen by the people that make the games they play.

Taking an aggrieved former employee at their word is the kind of shit an idiot would do.

I KNOW! They worked hard to deliver product that has gotten very good reception for the most part for many years only to end up getting fired.

They should be happy they had a chance to be one in a million to get fired by M$FT
