id Software co-founder John Carmack has broken his silence on the wave of layoffs that gutted the legendary Doom and Quake studio, offering a characteristically measured but candid response to what many in the industry have described as a devastating blow. Carmack acknowledged that a past statement he made expressing confidence that Microsoft would be a good steward of the brand is no longer holding up, admitting the remark "isn't aging well" in the wake of what has been reported as a bloodbath of job cuts at the studio he helped build into one of gaming's most iconic names.
