Hexenherz 07/29/21 5:26:47 PM #9:	Wonder who the genius is that came up with that idea. Let's address allegations of sexual harassment and toxic work environments by just making the environment even MORE toxic, that'll show them. I think if history has shown us anything in the video game industry, it's that individuals can and will find ways to just move on to greener pastures at new studios when the one they're working out gets bought out by EA or turns out to be a floundering dud because of shitty leadership like this. --- FFXIV: Lucius Hexenseele (Brynhildr) \| RS3: UltimaSuende . 99 WC/Fish/Cook/Fletch/Div/Mining/Smithing/Thieving/Crafting/RC https://letterboxd.com/BMovieBro/ <cite>Hexenherz posted [p:956586353] in Activision...
