This thread, and Jaffe.

"Who? Oh she was a producer linked to a lot of titles…"
"Ah let's insert some GaaS FUD completely ignoring the irony behind what GamePass is meant to drive"
"I hope Xbox hires her"
Nice progression, without the last bit it might have even passed as non console war bait

Next time, when interest rates keep rising… at least we know what to expect with tech. Then again rising prices and firing people is a kind of doom spiral way to reduce profits so it makes the problem worse and I do hope something balances this.

I mean, call it console war bait or not, I genuinely liked the list of the games and losing that talent would be a shame to the industry.

So you are going to take the Tommy Tallarico approach because people threw criticism at your tweets?
Come on, of course people are going to have issues with anyone saying they have inside scoop on a big story, but then say "Sorry don't want to reveal". It's annoying when people do that, it's straight up "Look at me, I know something you don't." attitude.
Edit: Seeing what the news actually was, talk about being overly dramatic. Much respect for Connie and what she's contributed, but her leaving Sony is not worth creating some "Sky is falling" tweet.

Way to go wishing economic hardship on people who think differently from you. Gross.

That's all? For this kind of "scoops" Jaffe's subscribers pay him?

The Sony I grew up with is officially dead....
On a serious note, literally a nothing burger in the grand scheme of things. I appreciate her contributions, but this was not world changing for Sony as a company.

The irony is that these people want us to think exactly like them. And if we don't, they will gleefully try to get us fired, cancelled etc. Just take a whiff of the purple place to see what I mean.

also didn't say that it was. I think people are blowing this out of proportion and not actually reading what he said.He said it was sad news, not death to playstation, not some earthquake, that "new" sony isn't bad at all, that if you like current sony games, probably nothing changes for you, that sony itself is probably not taking a hit, and that it's only really bad for an individual and maybe their team; all of this is reasonable and far from any doom saying speculation that ran rampant in this thread.
He's also obviously looking at it as a developer, and seeing what she was involved with for the past 34 years, I understand how he can feel that it's sad and potentially disrespectful (your work is not your family etc.)

I think he overstated it a bit, but that may be because he worked for Sony and perhaps knew her personally. So it probably hit him harder than those of us on the outside. I never heard of her before in my life.
I do wonder, however, about this happening so close to Jim Ryan's retirement news. Perhaps a shakeup going on in PlayStation land?

I think maybe he should have waited until the news came out before sending out his opinions on the matter.

It has nothing to do with them, they're just trying to find something to latch on to and have been given some rather weak ammunition. I've already seen some xbox pages commenting that "Sony fans" are "coping" with the news lol, give me a break.
They're desperate to try and make this a SONY IS DOOMED thing when no one knows who she is (no disrespect meant) and it doesn't change anything.
Jaffe and that doomposting style of clickbait feeds into it. It's just pointless negativity.

For anyone interested Connie gave some interesting thoughts on the development/release of Crash Bandicoot.
and its whoooo wow big news not

I've said this time and time again and I'm tired of repeating it. I love GAF but it's too easy to post absolute HORSE SHIT here for clout.

I don't get the hubbub. Sure, she might have been integral to Sony, but the percentage of people who even know who she is or what's she's done has to be in the single digits. You just can't whip up outrage over that, even if it were under unfair circumstances.
