Xbox has the worst management team in the industry. They have ruined the brand and destroyed peoples livelihoods.

He's such a pathetic shill. Dude is a grown man who licks the boots of a billion dollar corporation.

I would usually agree, but judging by the anime profile pic, the disgruntled former employee was probably a 'narrative editor' interested in 'exploring contemporary forms
of queerness and alternative social perspectives'.
All of those manatees deserved firing.
Obviously doesn't change the fact that Spencer et al are fucking divs.

Skillup released a video a day ago, specifically blasting Xbox leadership on almost the same subject.

It's corporate America my dudes. These devs were naive as fuck to believe they were nothing more than numbers. I know at my company I'm not seen as a human I'm just a number on a spread sheet. Sucks ass but it's the truth and no
Amount of bullshit warm fuzzy emails will change that.

A short scan through the recent Tweets/retweets does give off vibes of being an ally in the social justice fight.

Their whole argument was "eXcLuSiVeZ bAD"

So that's how the Xbox numbers kept increasing!
Buy company, give workers Xboxes, add them to the sales totals!
Genius!

It was always clear what would happen if Xbox bought ABK, and yet all those who are now silent celebrated it as a victory are complicit in the disaster.

This says more about you than them. They were in the Player Support department.

Anyone know any good to mediocre tattoo removal services? I got a lower back tattoo with the words "Phil's Booty".
But it supposed to say "I support Phil and Booty 4 Life".
Now that I no longer have faith in either of these two fools, I want to cover it with a cool butterfly or infinite logo.

He plays it off as a joke, in the comments.
The fanbase has become an absolute cult, since the start of the Xbone gen.

There was some cool people around in the 360 gen, even McCaffrey was kind of tolerable in a sort of "yeah he's a dweeb who looks like Shaggy but he's not laying it on thick"
Now it's like the equivalent of having to use the toilet straight after someone who stinks so bad it kills plant life .

Yeah, Ryan is miles better then Destin despite the fact he is still a shill.
Wasn't Podcast Unlocked (IGN's xbox podcast) the one's that said something like nobody can tell the difference between 720p and 1080p or something? Or something like human eyes can't see above 30fps? I just know Destin was involved with that.

Isn't it the guy that had an open marriage because his wife was from Eastern Europe and wanted to make him a cuck? This guy?

Found it.
Essentially B-BUT 720P IS FINE AND 1080P IS USELESS. You know for a fact that if the tables had been turned and PS4 was only doing 720p versus Xbox One doing 1080p he would have been going on and on about how much better it was. In his defense though the other chucklefuck I can't remember the name of is the one who says the human eye cannot perceive the difference under 50 inches.

Likely a furry she/her so I take that anger towards Destin with a huge grain if salt.

It's because of these Xbox fanboy "journalists" that these lunatics at Print feel validated and have the courage to come out of the sewer.
Any punishment for an Xbox lunatic is not enough.
They love to play the victim when they lose and to boast about their superiority when they think they won.

This is disgusting to me and might even cross a line Destin wouldn't go through. I was raised not to worry about how other people live their life as long as it does not impact me and to only worry about how I live mine. Especially people I have never met. To say a person deserved to be fired in the way this went down is ridiculous considering there were 1999+ that was fired right alongside them. Were they all anime lovers, cucks and furries?

There is what?
This person was fired before this round of layoffs. Were all 2000 layoffs from the past week anime lover, furry cucks? Of course not, but I'd be very surprised if a lot weren't problem employees and this was a trimming of the fat.
Microsoft used to always do a 5-10% bloodletting to stay lean. Suddenly anyone losing a job is the worst thing in the world. And maybe it is if they were unqualified and massively overpaid.

It sucks for ppl. But it happens. Also, these were the same type of ppl. Writers and software developers and stuff. Telling ppl welp, tough luck, sorry that robots taking over your jobs now. I lay off 2012, it sucks. Also cause all the companies was buying all the smaller ones, one I work for at the time was the smaller ones. Bought 3 of our places. Shut down two of them. I was in one of the 2. Now the ppl got AI, taking over some of there jobs. What they tell me, get over it. Guess what, they can get over it. Hell the job I'm at now. We make glass. Lucky I in a good spot I'm shouldn't get layoff. But could. Cause it's gonna happen. We changing stuff where we not gonna need a lot off ppl. Shit happens

I love it when some people in the thread try to derail the conversation with straw man arguments. Not a good look.
Just to stay on topic: this is about shills who defended the merger back in the day being exposed WITH FACTS today.
Whether the people laid off were competent or not is irrelevant to the conversation. Shills were cheering on the merger, it was proven a failure and now it's time to take the L with some dignity.
Another example of deviation. It's not about being right or wrong on the reasons for the massive layoffs. The FACT is that Microsoft LIED to the FTC and their media LIED too. Devs believed those lies and now feel betrayed, rightfully so.
If someone tells me my position is safe and I get fired 2 months later, they have lied to me, it doesnt matter if I dont do shit in my work place. Phil Spencer and everyone else fucking lied to everyone.
In a normal world, Microsoft would get sanctioned to hell and back for breaching the legal terms for the merger approval.
