Chris Avellone introduces 'Dying Light 2' by Techland during the Microsoft Xbox E3 briefing at the Microsoft Theater on June 10, 2018 in Los Angeles, California. The E3 Game Conference begins on Tuesday June 12.Chris Avellone, a high-profile video game designer known for his work on "Planescape: Torment" and two "Fallout" games, has been accused of sexual assault.
Avellone co-founded Obsidian Entertainment in 2003, and left the studio in 2015. Microsoft acquired the company in 2018. "I drink very quickly when I'm thirsty and that place was hot and crowded. I also rarely drink, so given the speed and how many he was encouraging me to have, I didn't realize how far gone I was until I was VERY gone," she wrote in direct messages.
Karissa said she was able to stop Avellone by saying, "this isn't a good idea," and that the only reason she felt able to to do so was because she was on her period at the time. "Had I not been, I don't think I would have sobered up enough with the self-consciousness there to refuse him because of how intensely blackout drunk I was."
on Twitter from what she says is an online conversation she had with Avellone in 2014. Collins said she regularly spoke to Avellone about pursuing a career in video games. A former colleague of Avellone, who worked with him for several years, described him as a "ladies' man" who sometimes stepped over the line. The colleague remembered his female friends describing Avellone as creepy on multiple occasions."I'm trying to apologize, but you blocked me, so I'm doing my best," he said in one reply to Karissa.
"We take all allegations of harassment and abuse very seriously and the recent reports that have surfaced are very concerning. EA has no plans to work with Chris Avellone moving forward," the statement said.
Interestingly, Karissa's roommate who was inside the hotel room only found out about any of this 7 years later, the same time we did:
There are many forms of abuse and the abusers can be from many groups, but identity politics and a corrupted culture has no regard to targets if the abusers or offenders are from certain groups.
