The guy who made the video (Ben Croshaw) is a long time game journalist.

Was that when Frost left? I know there was some disparity between his and SW’s accounting of how the company was run but I didn’t look very deep into it.
Yeah. A lot of accusations around misconduct, abuse of power, and misuse of funds. And though there was a kernel of truth, the serious / deliberate stuff did not check out, the evidence was presented in a manipulative manner, and the whole thing was clearly personal.

Anyways like I said, over and done.
This is fairly benign compared to the AI generated slop which is now in the process of taking over every social media.
