At the very least, who made the call to layoff id tech devs while infinity ward still struggles to wrangle their IW engine abomination?

There's so many games in the Microsoft collection that could have leveraged a shared optimization group similar to PlayStation's ICE Team and they just flushed an option.

Edit- upon further thought I guess that niche would be filled by the Xbox Advanced Technology Group... either way I have a lot of respect for id software and find these decisions beyond foolish.
