On Jacob Geller
I'm aware of the rape allegations against Jacob Geller, as well as the fact that his name is on a court-ordered list of UNC students disciplined for sexual violence. I've hesitated on whether to post anything about it, because the victim hasn’t been identified and I don’t want to participate in a retraumatizing conversation against their wishes. At the same time, as someone who has collaborated with Jacob Geller, I do not want my silence to be taken as endorsement.

For my part, I did not know about this and I wish I had. What justice and repair look like in cases like these are for the victim to decide, and I do not know their wishes or what accountability processes, if any, took place. However, strictly on a personal level, I’m uncomfortable having collaborated with someone who has presented himself as a nonthreatening feminist without ever disclosing his history of sexual violence to me or any other colleagues I’ve spoken to. I have no intention of ever working with Geller again. Beyond that, the person this happened to ought to be the ultimate authority on what happens next, and how they wish to tell their story if at all.

Something every guy needs to learn is that if you want to meet girls, you go to them. That means doing girl stuff. Be like all of the cool people and do choir and theater and girl stuff, meet girls, then become one yourself.

Committing a crime shouldn't end a person's life, but that isn't a free pass to pretend it never happened while continuing to enjoy influence and privilege. Especially if there were never any significant legal consequences or public acts of atonement and restitution.

I'm not necessarily saying they should be tied to sales either but at least that would be kind of coherent. I wonder how many games out there missed metacritic targets but still sold extremely well, while publishers profited and shorted the devs.

I'm sorry, "Metacritic bonuses" are still a thing?! They should never be a thing! If I play your game and review it and it didn't work for me and I don't think it's good, that doesn't mean the people who made it should get paid any less!
As well as having the life-changing impact of losing a job, imminent layoffs at The Coalition could also lead to another financial loss for current employees. According to Eurogamer, E-Day developers were working under the assumption of receiving a so-called “Metacritic bonus,” a pay-out should the game achieve a given Metacritic score based on critics’ reviews. However, according to the terms, to be eligible for this you still have to be working at the company at the time of the pay-out, which is expected to be “near the end of October.” Anyone let go before that could possibly no longer receive the reward for their work.

Yes, exactly! If he wants to clock off and not deal with this on his own time or othersise limit who interacts with his personal posts I can't really complain. Ironically, another reason it was a massive failure to anticipate the need for private accounts!

my uninformed guess might be that although MVC2 isn't mentioned in a customer-facing way, that doesn't necessarily mean there aren't licensing and percentage deals in the background—maybe some non-compete thing with Sony/Arcs System Works to avoid mentioning a Tōkon rival on merch?
