I believe the workers who say Kurvitz was difficult to work with, especially Argo since he’s known the guy for a long time but now I have to wonder if those people now regret speaking in it.
Do I think they regret what they said? I can't say for sure because a) I cannot claim to know, let alone guess, exactly how they feel about this mess since I am not them, and b) unless someone decides to come forward about it we likely will never know.
But what I can talk about is what we do know for certain.
I've spoken on this before in a post I made about the misgivings I had with Chris Bratt's take on the ZA/UMa (ZA/UM drama) where I expressed that I felt like the video overexaggerated some of Kurvitz's behaviors and actions to make him appear like some kind of villain when we know he was slowly being frenzied by the investors for months on end. Now despite that, it still does not excuse the fact that Argo Tuulik, Kaspar Tamsalu, and Petteri Sulonen were hurt by him regardless of the circumstance (which they will resolve with him on their own time if they so choose). But as you’d also know, Tuulik has stated in his interview that even though he has his personal gripes with the man, he still greatly admires and respects Kurvitz which is a sentiment Kurvitz has echoed about all his former colleagues in an interview with Jacobin.
I can 100% understand where Tuulik is coming from in his statements about Kurvitz. It's always going to be a difficult adjustment when the person who you've been friends with for years becomes your boss because it suddenly creates a power dynamic that didn't exist before. At least in Kurvitz's case, who obviously didn't have any experience in leadership positions, it's no surprise he became such a shitty boss towards his friends and coworkers since the man clearly had no clue how to properly lead a team, was demanding perfection from everyone, on top of his stress levels being exacerbated from constant conflict with the meddling investors.
Now, if I were to speculate on this issue knowing all this, I'd say at the very least Tuulik probably feels like he's in the same boat as Kurvitz given the similarities of how they were dismissed from the studio. Whatever comes of this, whether it'd be reconciliation between the two or officially parting ways for good, is up to him. Honestly, I just hope he isn’t feeling guilty for bringing up both the good and bad about working with Robert Kurvitz in his interview. It was very brave of him to do as well as provided us outsiders with a window into the dynamic he had with Kurvitz. He couldn’t have possibly known the investors would one day retaliate against him and anyone else who voiced their dissent against their authoritarian rule of the studio. His only mistake was blindly trusting the people who spent years systematically othering Kurvitz and co in order to split the group apart so that they could be further manipulated by them.

A compilation of old 7days drawings and sketches that I did not post here. Don't ask why, I'd like to know myself.

I was drawing myself as avatars of my top 3 fear enties and I asked @mayonezroulette what his were so I could his as well since we're kinda brainrotted together.
Me: Mainly Lonely (pretty much Martin flavored) and Eye (burdened with knowledge) with a dash of Vast (especially night sky / space flavored) I will go in depth in explaining my alignments of each if you will indulge me
Him: Flesh, Spiral, and Stranger. I feel like it's pretty equal for him, but I'm not the one to explain his choices. I did make his designs because I mused already about us being lonely and flesh avatars

People Make Games looks into ZAUM, Disco Elysium
Interviews folks inside and outside the company too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGIGA8taN-M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=du4Zjiv7bQs&t=0s (the CEO) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrN0KXeQ0v4&t=0s (Writer) My takes under the cut based on the main video, haven’t seen the full interviews yet:
Kurvitz signed off his rights to Sacred and Terrible Air and Disco Elysium to the company
An inner circle existed inside the company centered around Kurvits, which sought to work on the sequel BUT: 1) they 'wanted to see the game's source code and considered making a new company around it', 2) upset lot of Kurvits' friends with preferential treatment to the inner circle, 3) alarmed management but 4) management had already formed Newelysium Ltd to handle the sequel separately from Zaum London/Zaum UK/Disco Elysium UK to satisfy Linnamäe's conditions to sell his share to the CEO Ilmar Kompus
Kurvits' friends and coworkers think he's a shit leader and manager and he's got that cult leader charisma without proper people skill to manage them and they resent him for it + moneymen capitalized on this to sow more salt
Kurvits was unrepentant in the video, he did not think he was at fault towards his friends and coworkers
Inner circle at large is digging in and not admitting fault
The moneymen still remain shady about the structure, management, shifting around employees before they'd be entitled to benefits
 Harrier Du Bois is the latest and worst self-insert of Kurvits down to pat. Self-destructive rock star hated by colleagues

Week 7 - Vocal Comparison
youtube
youtube
My track is looking to be instrumental only, but I thought I would include a comparison of 2 of my favourite pop artists; I'm not a big lyric guy, but Mars and Poppy restore my faith in the more "commercial" sounding realm of music.

No, I Haven't Seen It Until Now: 'Paris, Texas'
Until this past week, the only Wim Wenders film I had ever seen was “The Million Dollar Hotel.” That one was a fascinating motion picture which dragged at times but still had moments that held me in a grasp few other filmmakers could ever hold me in. When all is said and done, the one thing we can all agree on is that it had a terrific soundtrack by U2, and that Mel Gibson should have kept his…

Argo Tuulik spoke out, he even mentioned the PMG doc changing dynamics.
I saw, I'm not surprised, and his redundancy feels like some form of retaliation on the investor's part because Tuulik was the only one who dared to speak positively about his time working with Kurvitz in comparison to Petteri Sulonen and Kaspar Tamsalu who only had negative things to say about him. He also is the only one of the three who were interviewed to publicly say that he thinks Kurvitz should regain access to the IP rights that were taken from him.
This doesn't feel like that big of a leap in logic to assume the investors were peeved that people did not receive the PMG video like they thought we would, and immediately changed the rules on Tuulik to punish him for his "transgressions" since he in turn became one of the biggest sources us fans used to poke holes in Bratt's arguments which I'm sure they also weren't happy about.
He unknowingly put himself in the line of fire for us and for that we must be grateful. I wish him a speedy job search and a lifetime of gainful employment.
