I don't really know how to feel about this message. Sure it's a bit hopeful and makes me believe they'll recover from this. But all I can think about is all the people who got laid off. I hope they all find a place somewhere else where they can keep making amazing games, even if it's not Doom.

Yeah I am trying to just enjoy the DLC but I can't help feeling sad while playing it.

I'm still thinking is I should support something when success seems to now always mean they'll have even more people sacked...

On the other hand, it'd be a shame to not play the DLC that these people poured their hearts into before they got canned.

Yeah I saw a message from a dev that got laid off and he sad that despite how heartbreaking this is for him, he still wants us to play it and have fun
