A famously litigation happy company not filing immediate legal action (starting with a cease and desist and then escalating) when accused of wrong doing in a very public and damaging way is all you need to know about who is in the wrong.

Im sure eventually someone at Microsoft will tell them enough and cut the man a nice settlement check in a couple of years. Right when discovery is allowed to go forward and all of Martys emails and communications are allowed to become public.

If we could just skip all this non-sense and get to the check cutting part, that would be great. This happened well before the MS merger, so they can safely issue a mea culpa, say things have changed, cut a modest check and be done with this.

Or they can double down, drag this out over the next few years, pay 10-100x as much in legal and marketing related expenses, lose customer good will, impact sales, and generally be a drag on their productivity. All to, in the end, cut a modest check.

Sadly when it comes to videogames, customer good will means nothing and enough people still buy these games just for the FOMO.

But their twitter post said they have all the evidence and you can't lie on the internet.

Yes, and in contrast to Mick, you know that they can’t be lying because while he presented the evidence he had, (which is a very one-sided thing to do), they are doing the very balanced thing of saying “we have the evidence and we are willing to disclose it in an appropriate venue” /s
