More sad news for WAR fans, but Josh remains confident in the game that he helped create

Some sad layoff news for the gaming industry arose yesterday as Josh Drescher, the Producer for Mythic's Warhammer Online, noted on his twitter account that, as of 11:00 AM, he would no longer be an employee of EA Mythic. Josh is, however, ever the gentlemen, as he quickly follows up this tweet by noting that "I can't get into details . . . I don't HAVE any more details . . . but it was a layoff. I wasn't fired and I still love Mythic." As well, Josh is emphatic in his support of Warhammer Online, and his parting words to the team are quite touching:

WAR isn't dying. The game is better now than ever before and more goodness is on the way. Even though it's not my baby anymore, I'm proud of what it's become and want the team's hard work to be rewarded moving forward.

With so many layoffs coming from the Warhammer Online team, let's just hope Mythic employees can keep their heads up and going strong.
