Welp, They Finally Broke Our Bud Datto Media

He's so right. There's a suit at Bungo that got paid for this decision. More concerned with the next few months of $$ than the next few years of players.

He also let it slip in the Final Shape after show that he got "scolded" during a rehearsal. The girl asks "who scolded you" but he didn't give her a straight answer. I think it's because it was the franchise manager sitting next to him. That guy gave me such a bad vibe.

It's interesting to see how Blackburn has learned from where Luke Smith failed.

Somehow being able to entirely shift all blame and concern onto the nebulous "executives".

Crazy to see the game director, who has oversight of everything from narrative to marketing being totally a solved of responsibility.

Bad writing? It's the executives

Poor balancing? The executives forced them to release it half baked.

That one guy? Gross gives me bad vibes, can't be Blackburn. I mean Blackburn isn't perfect, he just doesn't do anything wrong, and if he does it's the executives.
