I’m angry with my younger self for saying that. ”- Daniel Klein

Now Klein toldwhich no longer works in Respawn.

“Since then, I’ve put a lot of energy into getting better, and now I’m just very depressed because I feel like I can never make amends for who I was.

I spoke racist and sexist words, not because I deeply believed in them, but because I knew that I could provoke reactions from people. This does not justify anything I have said. The impact of my words was the same no matter what I believed in. ”- Daniel Klein

In the comment Kotaku Klein stated the following.

“I fully acknowledge the terrible, sanctimonious statements I made in 2007, and I loathe my younger self for making them. I have no doubt that they saw the light of day because someone was looking for things that could hurt me.

EA was aware of these statements, and I specifically asked them to ensure that these strategies are used against other employees in the future. ”- Daniel Klein
