Aaryn Flynn just confirmed this on Twitter
I wonder what led to this. Maybe he was fired, maybe not. I was blocked from his twitter after the very first thing I posted to him, but honestly I was never that up in arms even if his tweets about wanting to rid the world of white men was nuts.
Having played some Andromeda I'll at least say this, in case some of what I played was his work: Thank you Manveer, Omega DLC and Andromeda has some good fuckin' gameplay, but I hope you move forward in the industry while cooling the racism, or do other stuff, hopefully unharmful to people.

His contract probably ended after he was finished working on the game.

There was a rumor a while back that he had been forced out. I think he was under contract to do ME:A many years ago, and cutting him loose would have cost them money and set them back further. The development cycle had enough trouble as it is.

What exactly was his direct responsibility? Omega DLC gameplay = ME3 gameplay, what did he do? And what did he do for Andromeda?

His contract probably ended after he was finished working on the game. Could be simply he didn't renew a contract and he decided to leave when it was done. Honestly, I think the reason is somewhat irrelevant. |

His racism is probably not going anywhere, but honestly I don't think people should give a fuck so long as he does a good job at developing.

Not that big, probably one of a dozen working in that field for the game. |

Didn't agree with his views at all but I am not fond of call out culture or trying to get people fired over tweets.
Also funny that people are blaming him for the issues this game had when he would only have worked on the maps and combat which aren't being criticised at all (in fact the combat is being praised).

Manveer I have to give credit where it's due.
You can help make some fun parts in the game. But I'm
Happy to have you gone. I hated supporting a company that hired open racists and I'd rather someone slightly worse than a qualified hateful racist.
Hopefully you move past your racism and move on to better things.

Also funny that people are blaming him for the issues this game had when he would only have worked on the maps and combat which aren't being criticised at all (in fact the combat is being praised). I know right???? The combat is the one thing everyone seem to really like. Which makes me super happy. However looking at screenshots of his older Twitter description which something like 'fighting for ethnic (brown?) diversity' or something, and then looking at the CC.. I'm like.... ? But he wasn't in charge of that?!! WTF? Again, I love the more realistic preset, but there IS something rather odd about the complexions and lack of refinement on the fair faces. :/ |
