Boss Key Accuses Epic of Poaching [Apr 16, 2018, 8:54 pm ET] – 29 Comments
In a
tweet on Friday, Boss Key's Cliff Bleszinski called out his old mates at Epic
Games for poaching employees, saying, "Hey @epicgames, could you please stop
trying to hire away my team? We just launched @Radical_Heights on #UE4 and are
really happy with how it’s going."
VG247 points out that though he does not specify William McCarroll, the
former LawBreakers programmer was recently hired by Epic, which prompted
him to
reply directly:
With all due respect, assuming that Epic is the one starting contact / poaching is a bit presumptuous. We all had our own reasons for making the choice to leave BKP for Epic, and to act like we are commodities being stolen is a bit hurtful. We are people first and foremost.
