I'm going to paraphrase something I said earlier.
It's NCsoft's fault that their employees are losing jobs, not us. It was their poor decisions that led to their stock falling. It was their poor decisions that led to CoH's closing. It was their poor decisions that led to Paragon Studios being gutted. Maybe we've hastened things along some, maybe we enjoy the schadenfreude of watching NCsoft suffer. But we are not to blame for the consequences of their actions.
Had we simply BOHICA* when the closure was announced, Paragon Studios would've still been closed. NCsoft would still be pulling out of the United States. It would just be slower and more protracted, with all the underhanded BS involved quietly swept under a rug instead of being pointed out loudly by us. Workers would still be laid off left and right - NCsoft just would be dealing with a lot less negative press about it.
I'll say it again: actual events would not change. The only thing we've done so far is point out what is happening. All of the harm that has been done is NCsoft's doing, and theirs alone - we've just made sure that NC can't count on people ignoring the problem.
It's okay to feel sympathy for laid-off NCsoft employees, especially refugees of Paragon Studios. I wouldn't want to see anyone lose their job. But the fact of the matter is, jobs are going to be lost as NCsoft flounders, and they're going to cut American jobs first because those jobs are the least valuable to NCsoft, from the standpoint of NC's leadership. Until NC's leadership changes their attitude towards Americans, American-made MMOs, and American-run development houses, that's not going to change, and there's nothing really we can do except pressure them to change.
Or pressure them into the ground, whichever comes first. Given their obstinacy, and their tanking stock price, the latter seems more realistic.
My advice to any non-Korean NCsoft employee - your job security is in very real peril. If you haven't been laid off yet, it's a matter of months at most. Start jobhunting now, and bail the minute you get something halfway decent, or as soon as you legally can if you're under contract. We don't want to see you suffer due to the stupidity of NCsoft.
