Jethal Silverwing of Kithicor.org has posted a new song based on Frozen’s “Let It Go” about the Daybreak Games Layoffs.
I called it.. on Feb 11th.. the Gnoll Shit hit the Fan, and many.. MANY.. of our good friends got laid off. Our initial reaction was shock.. then the community took the next logical step to anger. One of the calm voices out there, among the mobs carrying pitchforks and torches.. was Linda “Brasse” Carlson. Now, former, director of global community relations.. and really, the face of SOE for the last 6 years. Perhaps her years dealing with the public giving her that calm in her voice, she assured me, personally, that yes.. this is a devastating blow to some, but those effected are strong and she has no doubt that they’ll all bounce back. If not in the gaming industry again.. then elsewhere.
Everyone at SOE (Now Daybreak) has been nothing but nice and helpful to me over the last 14 years. From my humble days as a newbie, navigating the Misty Thicket.. all the way to my multiple trips to the vegas Fan Faire and SOELive events.. and the big handshake I got from John Smedley after winning the “Player got Talent” competition this year. I love you all, and if there is anything I can do for any of you.. you have only to ask.
It’s in this spirit, that I present my new song. Inspired by the 2015 layoffs at Daybreak.
Let them go
-Sung to “Let it Go” from Disney’s “Frozen”
question is, why so many lay offs? what all you guys did to piss them off?
