Wouldn't the time to speak out have been a long time ago? What good do these people think they are doing now? Fuck em, too scared to say anything when it mattered but want to give themselves a big pat on the back for saying what a lot of other people were already saying for a long time.
The first quoted person in the article says they said they spoke up at a company meeting in front of him to say he should be fired.
But not the media?
A story like this would have exploded had they gone to media outlets, I find it hard to believe someone would call him out in person but not be willing to turn media when that failed.
It really does feel like "oh no I was saying stuff back then, promise" to only speak up now
Have you read Bobby's Wikipedia page? The media knows he's a big piece of shit who literally told the board his intent was to make the devs hate making games.
Its not some secret.
