CEO who surely contributed significantly to the development of bf6

Of course. He even tried the game to see if it's good enough. Actually, it was BF4, but that's just 2 games away, right? What could have changed?

And they'll definitely be able to do the same again with battlefield 7 now that he's laid everyone off... future revenue for the company will benefit greatly as a result... This is really great for shareholders... /s

Must be, i really think that when they offer these people their first huge payout when they're young, they invite them to mar a lago or epstein island, throw a party, have some underage sex slave sleep with them so now they have kompromat and they own that 28 year old newly minted hundred-millionaire. Theyve done it long enough they own the federal government at this point.

But think of the profits! We no longer need to pay those useless developers and can instead expand our c-suite budget, since they're the guys with all the winning ideas
/s
I hate this world the rich have made. All so they can draw imaginary lines on a page and imagine themselves important.

I'm always surprised there haven't been any more copycats of Luigi. There are so many desperate people out there with how things are going. How are the rich so safe in their penthouses?
