Ok look, I hate Ubisoft, but this is sad. My condolences to his family. People being happy about this are disgusting.

I agree.
It's so easy to not be a parasite. And yet this person chose to do it anyway.
Not gonna say I'm happy, but I will not shed a tear for the people who are actively making this planet literally unlivable.
maybe you should actually look into the kind of human this person was
the world is a better place without him

This thread, the comments, and the people who post them, would be fascinating subjects for a sociological-psychological study.
Just to make sure I'm not misunderstood: I'm calling out the people who are proverbially dancing on the victims' graves (yes, there were two fatalities). Regardless of your feelings for one or the other, you are celebrating the loss and pain of their friends and families. Frankly it's disgusting behaviour.
you don't get it mate I don't like the games ubisoft makes so making fun of someone who burned to death in a freak accident is totally justified
also his ancestors ran from the french revolution over 200 years ago. this is relevant because... uh.......
The Guillemont brothers were/are not nice people, maybe that's triggering those horrible comments like "Ah ok, anyways..."

As Richard Stallman once said: "I'm not glad he's dead, but I'm glad he's gone".
Can't argue that. He may not be missed after what he did, but a life is a life.
All I'm going to say is that I was a lead developer for Ubisoft at one point; You may imagine how I feel about this news.

I feel bad for the tutor that was teaching him but you won't see me shedding a single tear that there's one less c-suite parasite on Earth.
Good riddance.
Oh no...anyway
I'm sure it was because the windshield was littered with too much HUD.
I heard he was flying around looking for collectibles.
