Also, on a meta level, the creators got screwed over by capitalists because that's just what a scorpion will do if you give it a ride across a river.

Or maybe they were really good at coming up with stuff, but really bad at managing projects. And when the organization grew to more than a few people they couldn’t handle it anymore and couldn’t deliver on what they had committed to.

Everyone has a story in this particular screw up, and while I really would like the moral to be “capitalism bad/creatives good”, it sounds like your average SME implosion.

"Hey, all the creators keep saying this went down, but I do love the taste of corpro cock, so I'm just going to make up my own version."

It’s been pretty widely documented from all sides. You might want to widen your reading habits if you think it’s cut and dried.

It’s very much not.

Also “taste corpro cock”? Are you twelve? Isn’t it past your bed time?

Widely documented that all the creatives blame a corporate takeover, yeah, bootlicker.

Not all. Just three. Actually, two. And one of them has mellowed quite a lot in the last year or so. So just one.

Out of the tens of people that were involved with that game.

You are coming at this from a place of prejudice. Just listen.

I did listen, and said "Hey, this useful idiot is lying!"

Not to me, to the “creatives” you claim to love so much. Or do you only listen to “creatives” whose last name is “kurvitz”? Talk about sucking cock.

Lul, yeah, just the one guy.

Hey, when your boss fucks your wife, does he let you watch or do they make you listen through the wall?
