The smite community should start a mutual aid fund for past and current devs so they aren't beholden to bad leadership and they can pay their bills.
Or, (probably unlikely bc we aren't that big) we get a bunch of money together so the workers can buy out TitanForge games lol.

I feel so defeated. I was just starting to get my hype back for smite 2 and then all this bs happens.
I saw this tweet and it really makes me hope that someone sues HiRez. It's illegal to tell your employees they can't discuss wages. I hope one of the employees documented this.

Asked to see a few posts via my cousin who has a Twitter account and this one honestly brought me to tears. Having personally met Dandy at SWC, he was the energy that I relate SMITE with. It's like Ena all over again with all these fantastic people being laid off.

Hi-Rez let go of so many insanely talented people today in their latest set of layoffs reducing their teams to the smallest it has probably ever been in their modern times.
Only SMITE 2 exists now for them.
The workers there deserve better and those they laid off.

For stew to delete Twitter before all this happened btw is EGREGIOUS. You can't disrupt the lives of half of your workforce and then hide from it!
The LEAST you can do is take some accountability for literally taking away people's livelihoods due to your own poor business decisions.

I feel so bad for the Paladins team and fanbase.

In any other company, if leadership has made this many mistakes in such a short period of time, including 2 rounds of layoffs in 4 months, the leadership would HOPEFULLY be restructured.
But people in charge never like to take accountability. It always falls on the workers.

The smite 2 workers should stage a coup, overthrow leadership and turn the company into a co-op. They're making such a good game and the higher ups are doing everything in their power to make sure the game doesn't succeed

They're shutting down the Switch Port of Smite!
It'll be sad that I won't be able to disconnect in the middle of a team fight, or load into a conquest match 2 minutes after everyone else did.

I find a lot of people get confused about Strength and Intelligence in Smite 2, so I tried making an infographic. I hope it's helpful
