I hope Bioware gets closed and VTM:B2 (Dumpsterphyre) gets cancelled.

The content is whatever, but the quality of the image is suspiciously horrible.

Looks like it was printed, or copied, and then digitized

Did they print the email out then take a picture of it?

If the devs are surprised they're dumber than even I thought.

These things happen all the time in tech, projects are done and delivered and the (mostly outsourced) workers are dismissed. Like when everyone at Obsidian left when New Vegas was done.

I don't buy it. Until Bioware themselves comes out and confirms this I'm writing it off. This is probably some youtube nobody trying to get attention.
Is that why Obshitian has been crapping out nothing but SHIT ever since?

They weren't, steam revealed that it was about on the level of Ready or Not. We discussed it on the last page.

How appropriate. I'm guessing the answer to that question is no. In fact, they were not ready to be laid off.
Man, this game delivers. Definitely my GOTY of 2024, and I didn't even play any 2024 games. BTW, if it wasn't posted earlier, here's the text version of that Smash guy's youtube video: https://www.smashjt.com/post/exclusive-corinne-busche-out-at-bioware-edmonton-studio-closure-looms
Edmonton Bioware is original Bioware. At one time it was all of Bioware. Austin was opened up for that Star Wars MMO. I think Montreal was mostly for Mass Effect support stuff and then Andromeda.

I guess being the "Ruler of RPGs" didn't work out so well, huh?

On one hand I'm skeptical because other than DAVe and pretending to be into them in promotional interviews there's absolutely no indication in Busche's career of having any professional interest in RPGs at all so referring to making them as the 'doing what I love most' seems weird, on the other it would make sense since I haven't heard Busche being mentioned in connection to any ME5 roles and Bioware/EA are presumably going to be switching focus entirely to that now so it's the right time to cut the deadweight.

Busche, working closely alongside creative director John Epler, helped oversee The Veilguard's final stretch of development from early 2022 onwards, until its final release last October.
The Veilguard slogged through a mammoth decade-long development and several reboots before the version we finally saw launch arrived, steered by Busche.
Critically, The Veilguard has been received well, and commercially sales have been decent - but there's also been a suggestion that sales have not exceeded expectations. Still, Eurogamer understands The Veilguard's commercial performance was not a direct factor in Busche's departure.
Fuck off eurogamer cunts, the game did not have "decent commercial success" it was a big flop hence she was fried. Coping woke tards

Fucking get in.
Never admit defeat, even when your enemies razed your city and fucked your wife and daughter in front of you. And it's even worse to admit a self own.
Therefore the game was huge success. Or some sort of success, whatever. The game was successful, fucking chuds!!

No man, they said it was received well critically, which means as far as criticism goes, they got it by the tanker-load.
