I mean, you really only need one to understand just how bad it is and why it is not that hard to imagine being "pushed out" as a possibility

Especially when bioware has already been accused of doing this in the past and has treated some of their writers with a view of resentment
Harrassment and bullying in the video game industry is a well known about issue especially over ego and creative decisions "pushing people out". You can find articles about how common place it is or specific scandals spanning just about every studio or publisher going back years. It's pretty ubiquitous in the industry second to Hollywood probably in how common it happens
Wow, that's very rude how you came off and dismissive as well. I think you came into this just wanting to find something to argue about based on your tone here.
To the point though. They do support the idea put forward that the person could have been pushed out. Now whether that be from jealousy, ego, office politics no one knows for certain except them. But it IS a common issue in the games industry and my entire point was that it's not that outlandish to assume it as a possibility.
The sources I provided paint a clear picture that over 50% of writers in the games industry are subject to or have seen work place Harrassment and bullying (that's a shockingly high amount). Followed by an actual ex-bioware employee talking about how there was resentment towards the writers in the company.
The final source involves an interview with another bioware employee that brings up how there is a "“black-ball style environment,” where dissenting viewpoints are reportedly squashed and punished." and how people in higher positions of the company prioritize a certain agenda and make moves to dissuade dissenting opinions of those agendas.
As well for that final source I have to say your reaction to it is childish and rude. How does it suck exactly? Please elaborate. You don't get to just throw away a source I provide just cause you don't like them. There were other games journalists sites covering that interview as well so if you don't like that one then go find it on another site. If your issue is with the actual interview itself then articulate that and express why you dislike it.
Finally the issue I take most with your comment is your final paragraph. What is up with that? You make it sound like you're either in the industry or that your opinion is better than everyone else's, it's insufferable.
You act like the idea of pushing someone out of a job in a creative industry is some fantasy land level plot. When in reality it is far too common in most creative driven industries and even in non-creative driven ones. It's a common enough practice to be given a euphemism that we understand and know to be a potential part of office politics.
As well from sources provided, we can see that to not consider it is to skip over a logical through line where we even see this has happened previously in this same studio from a current and ex-employee where they outline the hallmarks of such type of treatment in an industry known for having high levels of co-worker Harrassment and work place bullying.
Explain your reasonings and back up your claims. So far the only thing you've provided in terms of a dissenting view point is the equivalent of "nuh-uh you're stupid for thinking that" whilst you then philosophically wax with some weirdly placed smuggness over how much better you think you are than the common person. It reads like a mid-2000's cringe r/atheist reddit comment
