In light of the recent criticism that Rockstar Games has been facing for its firing of over 30 employees, one employee from the studio has taken to the GTA Forums to talk about the company’s actions. Under request of anonymity, and having been verified as a real Rockstar Games employee by an admin, the person – using the name Organize – has further criticised the Grand Theft Auto developers, calling the company out for union busting.

    As for Ishii: “Social media was being social media” sums up how much you care on that front.

    I didn’t minimize what happened. I just asked if Sucker Punch had any role in that since I wouldn’t boycott a game just because there’s assholes in its fanbase.

      No, you 100% did. All while also justifying chudlike behavior because the company that released the game about a Native American (who was Troy Baker in brownface but we try to ignore that) fighting against the cops in Seattle can’t afford to have any policality to their games. Also that ignores the actual Ghost games themselves.

      Maybe you didn’t intend to. But your actions sure as hell did. So… either get pissy and insist you didn’t and the problem is everyone else or engage in some self-reflection.
