These firings were totally justified.
She shared an opinion on twitter, in a public forum but does not admit disagreement. Game design isn't a science, it isn't a closed book. It isn't factual. People can disagree. Specialists are entitled to think they know more and they do, but they are not entitled to be vile towards other people because of that.
Jessica got exactly what she deserved for the damage she was doing to the company's image. Fries was extremely unenlightened when he chose to go to her defense. What she did was undefensable and by taking her side on something she had no right to do, he sealed his own fate. His was honestly stupidity, but she is a vile human being in my eyes and i never knew she was a GW2 dev but i sure am glad she is no longer around to poison that great group of people.
Mike O'brian had no choice but to let them go and i can only hope that not all devs think the way she does and loathe their own fan base that admires them and their work. What a pitiful person. I can't bring myself to feel sorry for her for one nanosecond.
After all this she has been pushing her biased side of the story into the mainstream media. But anyone can see that she was massively in the wrong if they really investigate what happened. She hasn't shown an iota of regret for what she has done.
There's some sorry narratives going around that this empowers communities to get people fired. That couldn't be any falser. These two people got fired because they abused and villainized their own fanbase for committing the sin of politely wanting to discuss the topic she brought up in a public forum.
Justice couldn't have been better served.
