In full production on the PAYDAY 3 review, still gonna be a couple months at least. Sorry to ask: if anyone has disposable income and appreciates my work keeping Starbreeze accountable, I could use some help paying my phone & website bills: ko-fi.com/connorshawva

sherishaw.net/blog/starbreeze-executives-french-ex… Updated the article! A lot going on with Starbreeze recently! Their DND game, Baxter, was cancelled sometime after July this year. Thomas Lindgren has moved on to be CEO of Goodbye Kansas. Fredrik Malmqvist's last working day was in September, he's fully gone now. Mats Juhl, for now, is still CFO. The fired French team is taking things to COURT via their union.

If PAYDAY's recent moves have confused you, have a listen to the answers. Take it easy.

NEW AUDIO TRACK NOW AVAILABLE! Learn what Mats Juhl and some other businessmen have done to Starbreeze. Hear the inane decision-making behind PAYDAY 3's tech team being gutted (and how it was allegedly conducted illegally). sherishaw.net/blog/starbreeze-executives-french-ex…

Listen to over an hour of context for the situation Starbreeze is attempting to claw their way out of, and what the former CEO was on about when he said "we fixed that now". Hear quotes from insiders at the company, images described aloud- this audio track was made with multitasking in mind. Available right now for free on my website, and as a download for those who prefer their media offline.

AK's got a lot on his plate, and if he has any sense some SPECIFIC people he oughta show the door. (PS: Delivery Charge is pretty good. Maybe not $8 good, but hey.)

Hopefully the final Dan update: he got bullied so hard by Starbreeze staff that he's not doing operation escape van anymore. Perhaps I had a bit of a hand in this too, who can say? Either way: the Tour de France has been called off.

The company will still need to get the equipment returned of course, as Sony and Microsoft would very much like their development kits back so they can send new ones. Maybe try opening a dialogue with the people you'd excluded from the June 5th Beach Party, instead of showing up to their home addresses?

Makes you wonder who's in charge of HR at Starbreeze!

God willing, I'm done posting about this for a while.

Fredrik Malmqvist, a man whose contributions to PAYDAY 3 can be summed up as 'would rather be working at KRAFTON', has been fired from Starbreeze after personally handling the illegitimate firings of French employees.

Update on Dan: Starbreeze staff keep bullying him about his stupid Tour de France plan so he's trying to get a subordinate to do it for him instead.

What does any of this mean? I'm afraid you're gonna have to read for a little while if you want to know more, but my article from May lays the groundwork for this entire stupid situation: sherishaw.net/blog/starbreeze-executives-french-ex…

Starbreeze is gonna send a dude named Dan to the home addresses of former French remote employees (the ones Mats Juhl illegally terminated a few months ago).

He's gonna ask them to sign a contract and then demand they hand over console development kits which belong to Sony and Microsoft, and Starbreeze was never supposed to place in someone's personal residence in the first place. Dan is gonna be heading off on his Tour de France on July 9th and then leaving in an escape van to go on vacation immediately afterwards so he can't be reached for the consequences.

Starbreeze fucked these French employees over, and is now trying to drag them into further legal headaches by making them sign paperwork and improperly hand over console development kits Starbreeze does not have any claim to. Dan sent mass emails to their personal addresses about it and is gonna be knocking on their doors in a little over a week's time.

Fuck Starbreeze. I'm too exhausted to make this an article before Dan's funny little trip, but jesus fucking christ. (EDIT: Dan's called the plan off after getting made fun of for it too much. Wonder if he'll still go on vacation?)

RAID's long-awaited update is out, if my video has you interested. New weapon, new gamemode. If you like it, don't forget to leave a review to help the game.

I'm taking some time off editing to relax, deal with IRL stuff, and work on other projects. I'll still be streaming during this time, and obviously the PAYDAY 3 review is still coming out later this year. In the meanwhile, have you read my article about Starbreeze's leadership and accusations of insider trading? sherishaw.net/blog/starbreeze-executives-french-ex…
