    Yeah, no, I got the intent, it just seems like… a random thought? Why would that be the case? You just think the other writers are jealous of someone who was there for fifteen years and just… mean girl’d them out of the company?

    That’s not a plausible scenario. Or at least not the first think you’d leap to.

      When it comes to the games industry, it’s a lot more common for that to happen, especially with writers and musicians so it’s not that weird to jump to that conclusion.

      The whole industry is still fairly new and has a lot of… Lets say Immature and big ego people. This wouldn’t even be the third time this year I’ve heard of a big name or group in the games industry being bullied or harassed out of a position by jealous coworkers or managers with inflated egos.

      Its quite plausible. Veilguards writers were bad at their jobs, and her writing for Emmerich only served to make the other writers look even worse. I could absolutely see this happening, I have seen it happen at less creative jobs over way lower stakes than this.
