It would do anyone curious about the situation well to seek out those names and read the threads they have posted about their experiences. Hamilton ends the thread by highlighting a wealth of current and ex-Blizzard employees that have spoken out about the culture at the studio. "Activision’s response to this is currently taking a group of world-class developers and making them so mad and traumatized they’re rendered unable to keep making a great game," he continued.
