Adam Orth, the former Microsoft Studios creative director who left the company after a series of sarcastic, ire-raising tweets about the Xbox One's planned "always on" nature, spoke for the first time about the "internet firestorm" he helped create and ultimately lead to his departure from the company.
Or it could be the fact that the X-Box's primary demographic is 10-18 year old boys. I don't think society has regressed, I think this guy was just playing with fire and severely misread the audience of an abundantly vocal and somewhat immature audience. If anything could be said, it would be said, so goes the rule of the internet. So it seems that even after all this introspection, he still doesn't have it right. Am I wrong for not feeling sympathy? Maybe it's just because I've worked with too many "creative directors" who had no business doing what they were doing."...society has regressed to a point where this behavior and discourse is an accepted response to something someone doesn't like or agree with," he said.
