Small comments came again at the end of the past month before speaking on Twitter as follows : I was recently confronted with some terrible statements I made in a blog in 2007. I take full responsibility for the things I said. And I am embarrassed, sad and angry on my younger me, because I said these things. I hope it is obvious that I do not believe these things anymore.

Ryan Rigney, the communication director of Respawn, set up initially behind small : Daniel sent me the video itself to draw attention to this. As far as the comments are concerned, I do not think that something from 2007 reflects a person in 2021. People grow up.

Other people at Respawn Entertainment apparently saw it differently. This week followed the confirmation that small is no longer busy at ResPawn Entertainment . Since last Friday, I do not work with Respawn anymore, said the former staff. You may have heard the terrible, bigot things I said in 2007. I wholeheartedly agree that this guy had to be fired.

However, he is a completely different type: Since then I used so much energy to become a better person. And right now I am very depressed because I feel that I can never do that again, who I was. I've said racist and sexistic things, not because I believed in it, but because I knew that I could cause a reaction to the people. However, this would not apologize for what he said.
