"Geoff Keighley Addresses Layoffs Amid Suspicious Timing"

TL;DR Summary
Geoff Keighley finally tweeted about the recent video game industry layoffs, but the timing of his tweets, followed by the announcement of his next big video game event, suggests a convenient smokescreen. Many criticized Keighley for promoting an AI-powered scent machine amidst the layoffs, and his subsequent tweets about the layoffs were seen as weak and calculated. It's implied that Keighley's tweets were a way to address the issue without risking his relationships with publishers, while preparing to promote more games made by overworked and underpaid developers at his upcoming event.
