never forget that, more than a year ago, Bethesda and Marty Stratton claimed they had “full and complete documented evidence” in response to Mick Gordon’s detailed allegations (with emails, metadata, etc) after trying to bury him and his career to hide their own failures on Doom Eternal

I’m assuming we haven’t heard anything more because Mick is currently going Doomguy on them with a good lawyer.
What a baller – Mick has ALL the receipts too
Good to see this story again, fuck Bethesda, and hopefully Mick can sue them up the ass for defamation.
this sucks so hard that somehow stains doom returning from the dead, there is this bullshit where someone got jealous? over too much credit being given to someone else. This should just be iD apologizing to mick giving him a truckload of cash everyone going their separate ways and being a weird footnote on a great game with a great soundtrack.
Its the only reason i never brought doom eternal and during this controversy they put this game on historical low.
For any fans of Mick’s Doom soundtracks, listen to the album In Stasis by Monuments. Mick contributed towards a couple of the tracks.
This is the first time I’ve heard of this because I don’t play DOOM and wasn’t really active in gaming news when all of this happened. What happened to Mick is so disheartening. I just don’t understand how people like Marty can wake up every morning and feel okay with who they are and how they treat others. I feel so bad for Mick too because he really tried his hardest to not “burn bridges” as everyone puts it — and even today people are chastising him for taking so long to respond. It’s like what do you think all the delays from legal were all about? They knew the longer Mick waited to respond the less credibility he would have.
I wish the best for Mick and hope he continues to have a successful career with people who appreciate his talents!
What failures with Doom Eternal? Game is fantastic.
