Bungie posted about it. (Destiny)

6. Marty decides to leave, knowing there are any number of game studios ready to pick him up and pay him mad cash

I think this jibes with the disparate tones of Bungie's news post and Marty's tweet (including the "without cause" qualifier seems like something resembling bitterness).


Yes, which is why your #6 doesn't make sense.

This is complete speculation, but it is also possible he was seen as a liability in the wake of Brendan Eich being ousted from Mozilla over his political views. Marty IS a known as the most conservative one at Bungie after all.

Too my knowledge, Marty has never made his opinions, whether positive or negative, for gender and sexual minorities public. Economics and such, yeah, but nothing so easily (and rightfully) targetable for ending employment. Conservatism doesnt necessarily equal unprogressive stances for equal rights if you're purely considering such views for the topic.
