Gearbox CEO Says ‘False’ Report of Stiffed Borderlands 3 Bonuses Was Written to Profit From Outrage



Gearbox Software CEO Randy Pitchford has accused Kotaku of using ?outrage as currency? for publishing a ?false? report about Borderlands 3 bonuses.
Kotaku?s Jason Schreier reported that he had heard from Borderlands 3 developers that their promised bonuses, tied to the game?s sales, were being docked by Pitchford. Following the report, game director Maxime Babin took to LinkedIn to defend Gearbox?s royalty scheme and penned a lengthy note to explain how it works. Babin?s post saw a number of Gearbox developers speak out in support of the scheme, and express their disappointment over how Kotaku handled the report. However, that hasn?t stopped people from criticizing Pitchford on Twitter, prompting him to speak out.
