Oh man, I'm giving it away in the giveaway thread. Well, holding a haiku contest anyway.

    Yeah, seen it just a second after. Then I thought, ah whatever, because I suck at haikus.

    Mister Chris Avellone

    Or Mighty Chris Avellone

     

    Or Mayor Chris Avellone

     

    So many theories, who knows...

    I'll do it, for a turnip.

    What does MCA

    stand for? A guess as haiku:

    'Mister Cool Awesome'

    Reading this ongoing saga is like reading a high school girl's Facebook page wall after she breaks up with her boyfriend.

    Companies trend towards.... being immoral and upper management selects for certain anti social behaviors. It's easier to make money if you have less empathy. So, upper management of any business being **** isn't particularly newsworthy. It'd be more unique if Obsidian upper management was run by genuinely nice people who took the feelings and well beings of their staff into account every decision they made.

    The MCA stands for Mm... Muh... My Cdumb Ass...

    I don't get why Avellone is posting his accusations in an alt right forum and his language is beyond undignified.

    I have a feeling that much of what he says is true, but if someone working for me would write things like this I would be very hesitant to continue working with him.

    For every serious accusation Avellone seems to post three stories that are merely intended to embarrass the people involved.

    But most of all he is embarrassing himself.  :blink:

    And shall we give them a hug for being as scummy as the rest of the companies? Good job Obsidian, you are not worse than others, you are simply just as bad.

    Eh, judging by my game industry work experience, even if MCA is 100% truthful and correct they'd still be on the better side. That being said, I worked on mobile games.

    The Codex is an alt right forum ? Thought it was just one with a high degree of **** posts :p

    Seriously though, for an "alt-right" forum, it sure does have a ton of commies and other kinds of people you wouldn't expect to find there and which I won't directly refer to because I've already been in trouble with moderation here for it.

    Alt-right and Eastern Europeans do have plenty in common when it comes let's say refugees, LBGT and such issues. They will just hate each other on some other topics :)

    And with that, I think we've strayed pretty much off-topic and this thread is over the post limit anyway. If anyone wishes to make a new thread on the subject of Chris Avellone's interview and posts on the Codex they are free to do so. This closure is not a ban on the topic.
