If you're looking for the context: this guy got angry about the way Valve published his game on Steam (they apparently made a mistake about whether it was "early access" or not) and, in the course of angrily venting about the problem on Twitter, he threatened to kill Gabe Newell. Valve publicly shitcanned him from the platform.
I don't know anything about this game or situation - but it sounds like this guy messed up and is admirably taking responsibility for his actions. That's a mature thing to do (taking responsibility) and something we see too little of in the tech world. I admire the way he stepped up to the plate and tried to remedy the situation for his colleagues. He should be rightfully ashamed of the mistake but proud of the way he's dealt with handling it.
I agree that it's good to take responsibility. That said, "If I do continue to work in games it’ll be as an anonymous 1 of 1000 at some shitty corporation" may not be the most diplomatic way to sollicit a new job.
Yeah I agree. I was also taken aback by that sentence. It's like "he's really doing this apology/responsibility thing right and then oh..." Hopefully he'll have the sense to just remove that one sentence.
