Tuulik even had a message for his former colleagues (“comrades”) at ZA/UM, including Kurvitz and Rostov:
“To all other former respected comrades (Kurvitz, Rostov, everyone) – long time no hear, but we would love for you to join the struggle as well: time to roll up our sleeves and start building communism!”
I don't really remember that tune coming out of Tuulik when he was still holding on to ZA/UM during the documentary lol.
Pretty big shift from meekly suggesting that maybe Kurvitz could get a license to keep writing in the Elysium world.
But whatever, they are making video games, time will tell if it will be interesting or not.
To be fair, that stance was probably from before he was fired.
Well yeah, but it's more about the principle of it, he's supposed to be a ZA/UM old guard and that was part of his value in being in the documentary, so it's not as if being fired should be a radicalizing moment.
Basically I think he appears a bit too flexible, the radical rhetoric comes off leaning more towards branding than deep principle.
