>Romero Games reportedly met with Microsoft just a day before the publisher pulled funding for the studio, and there was 'no mention' of the decision that put over 100 people out of work
Romero was about to make a masterpiece. Why does Microsoft act like that?

Nah it's just typical Microsoft retardation.

>>714771738
yeah but think of how much more money they could make by replacing people with Indians
the problem is that shareholders, investors etc don't want to make some money, they want to make all the money

SUCK IT DOWN

Life's a bitch, Remero!

>>714771926
i don't understand their endgame. if you keep cutting workers and/or their wages, there are less people with less income to buy your goods and services

Phil Spencer is about to make you his bitch

>>714771991
saar do the needful buy doom the shart ages

>>714772118
that's when the purges/mass kill off begin

Was the studio owned by MS? If not they can always pitch the game to another publisher

>>714771738
Game development only requires more hiring next the end stage of development for testing, asset duplication and other admin work. In the early stages of development you don't need that many people.

He was about to finally make me his bitch... I shall never forgive Microsoft for that.

>>714772118
That's hard for jeets to comprehend. Did you see how india was run in the 20th century when the british relinquished control? These fuckers don't know the first thing about economics. They have still have Maoist China thinking. This must be a sick joke from God where he makes the lowest of IQ breed the most.

>Viva la revolution, workers of the world unite!
>Y-y-you want me to use MY own money to fund my projects? *gulp*

Looks like he has to get a real job again

>>714771623 (OP)
They say is Karma for quake 1 trannies at their circlejerk forum and discord making that shitty Q2 meme and the sequels while shilling romero with all the bullshit he spread for years with his "phtographic memory" that pissed even id Software old crew and new
Microsoft and id made romero their bitch

That Blackroom thing he was trying to get off the ground a decade ago looked bad, i don't think he actually had the talent to do anything.

>>714773003
Fairweather and "Lady"Formerlly Lord Havoc's actions ruined the quake 1 community forever, and tronyn's death was the bottom line and last nail in the coffin.

>>714771738
why do leftists always dance around the actual issue (Indians)?

Isn't romero a terminally online boomer who constantly posts on social media? Who does HE say about all this?

>>714771738
>late stage
you pinko faggots will never get over your eternal seethe what a death cult tier disaster your precious marxism/gommunism was kek

>>714773368
he wouldn't be able to say anything because of NDA

What the fuck has he even done since Daikatana, which was like what 25 years ago?

>>714771738
>late stage capitalism
Why are Romero's fans so susceptible to sympathy for communism? can't be a coincidence that John Romero appeared on Hbomberguys channel. Maybe this explains why Romero was such a fuck up that didn't know how to run a business when it came to Ion Storm.

>>714771623 (OP)
These retards really should start funding their own games

>>714777891
Your mom

>>714771738
Nothing to with capitalism and everything to do with Microsoft being fucking cancer, especially when it comes to video games, you commie faggot. They introduced DLC, paying for online services, streaming and TV as a part of consoles and they've killed countless promising games and studios. Anyone that supports them is further fucking over video games, especially with destructive shit like game pass.

>>714772237
Phil fucking hates video games and only likes money.

>>714778135
oh snap

>>714778256
>words words words not real capitalism words words words
Kill yourself, nigger.

Romero is like the worlds luckiest ideas guy who lucked out on being rich despite having no talent

>>714778414
>no talent
>coded DOOM with carmack
>created shareware ep 1 levels
fuck off

in the shortest amount of time then bail*
Shareholders are not a good thing for companies.
They only think about money, not the long term future of the company, not the image the company has, not the quality of the products or services; unless it means they get more money.
Once a company is in ruins they just move over to somewhere else and take a small hit on their shareprices after x1000'ing their initial input.
Still a win in their books.

>despite having doom, quake, cod, Halo, and probably a dozen other fps ips, Microsoft wanted to publish another fps which has been in development for years.

He should be happy he got Microsoft to pay for a few months/years.

>>714779117
>coded DOOM
he didn't code shit

Jeet tier.

>Microsoft: Microsoft spent tens of billions on AI. How are you using Microsoft Copilot or other AI technologies to improve productivity?
>Romero: We aren't using any of that. We believe all art and software should be crafted by human hands.
>Microsoft: How noble. Good luck on your next venture.

UH OH

>>714778403
He's not wrong. Romero Games already has a proven track record of complete shit. Nobody liked it, it sucked. Apparently this is more considered as a published game by John, since his wife was the brain behind such an atrocity.

>>714778135
Fuckin' rekt

>>714778346
Sounds like bitch talk to me......

>>714771738
Getting laid off is like winning the lottery, you get a shitload of money and can just chill for a while.

>i don't think he actually had the talent to do anything.
Blackroom is the definitive proof that John Romero is a grifter. There's just historical revisionism going on in this thread to make Phil Spencer to look like the bad guy, rather than accepting the fact that Romero is just entrenched in pitching vaporware projects to publishers and then they all eventually pull out because they realize he doesn't know what the fuck he's even doing.

>>714779117
Romero is an untalented hack. Please be quiet anon. Stop talking about one-two hit wonders like they mean anything. Romero isn't even confident in himself to put down his own money into development. He thinks he can trick a publisher into doing it all for him. Before he tried crowdfunding until it dawned upon him that he would actually be accountable and then he walked that shit back immediately.

>>714778256
has everything to do with jeets, those dravidians can only function on slavery and caste.

>>714786205
Or the fact that Romero is somehow an even bigger fraud than Hideo Kojima.
