World's Edge saying they wanted to do Age of Empires on PC first but Phil kept asking them where it is for console, Lol.

Seemed like he kept demanding it but let World's Edge do what they wanted to do first, as they wanted to focus on PC first.

As should be the case! It's great for the games to finally properly come to console, but World's Edge knows the PC community needs to be prioritized.

I did not anticipate my own peers, friends, or colleagues openly mocking and being gleeful of a difficult launch.

Delighting in the failure of others, no matter how you feel towards a company, seems mean spirited.

I feel sad, confused, and disappointed.

Personally, I’d love nothing more than to give full transparency, but at that point I feel it would be interpreted as excuses.

Anyways, thank you for letting me be momentarily vulnerable (before I’m whisked away by the PR teams for talkin-

The fuck, assholes.

Bethesda PR should high-five her for the tweets.

Name and shame these assholes in the industry.

I haven't seen any of my friends do this, thank god, because it's shameful behavior. Every single one of us in gamedev knows how hard it is to get a game out the door. Why would you make a fellow dev feel bad about a project they poured their hearts into? Honestly shocking https://t.co/0xM9xwlu8n

Indeed, the direction Xbox has been going in should already tell you that MS wants to grow beyond just console gaming. They also want to grow in PC and mobile gaming because those markets offer growth vectors for MS. Getting ABK would have provided MS with significant inroads into both PC (Blizzard) and Mobile (King) but unfortunately, that deal appears to be dead so MS will have to target smaller studios and gradually build them up into larger operations. (Barring some kind of miracle where the CMA reverses their decision).
