Heh. :) (Destiny)

That's quite the mouthful. This is always the problem with trying to figure out what's happening in the games industry. Insiders can't speak because of NDAs or other fear of retribution, so they always need to be quoted anonymously. Essentially it boils down to whether or not you trust the journalist has credible sources that are telling the story accurately.

I'm guessing in this instance he does, because there are several things in the story which could be considered damaging to both Bungie and Activision, and if what was said was false they would sue for libel. He's really going out on a limb publishing what he did. I guess we'll find out if Bungie or Activision pushes back.

You seem awfully invested in this. Levi didn't say it was bullshit, he said he didn't have enough basis to decide if what he was reading was accurate, so he'd rather not make judgements. That's a completely reasonable point of view, and he shouldn't need to defend himself for it. It's clear you believe it's gospel (or close to it) - but he doesn't believe that. Can't you just let him have his opinion?

And you're dreaming if you think Activision is going to sue over an article like this, true or not; the bad press from the lawsuit would SWAMP whatever negativity the article generates.
