When Bethesda isn’t changing its social media logos to rainbow flag colors and then leaving them the same on its Middle Eastern accounts, then you can expect the company to churn out glitchy games like Fallout 76. However, and as of recent, the company has taken the time to write out a postmortem letter that will more than likely offend social justice warriors in that said notice expresses condolence to Robert Trump and his family.
For those of you thinking: “Why would Bethesda send out a post mortem letter to Robert Trump? How is he associated with Bethesda?” If you don’t know, the businessman had served on the board of directors for ZeniMax for 21 years.
In addition to the above, Robert Trump was on board with Bethesda’s parent company while major works such as Fallout, The Elder Scrolls, and Doom were published under Bethesda Softworks and Bethesda Game Studios.
As per website gamerant.com, we learn that President Trump’s younger brother — Robert Trump — recently passed away on August 15th, 2020, at the age of 71. Although the cause of his death is said to be unknown, what is known is that Bethesda wrote the following letter thanking the now deceased businessman for his work:
“We were deeply saddened by the passing of Robert Trump, long-time member of the ZeniMax Board of Directors. Robert had served on the ZeniMax Board since the company’s founding 1999. During that time he was a constant source of guidance and counsel for the company for more than two decades. In addition to his vast experience, Robert was extremely approachable and always treated board members and employees equally. We could not have grown as a company and achieved our many successes without the help and support he offered. He will be sorely missed and we extend our condolences to his family and friends.”
None of this should come in as a surprise regarding Bethesda’s actions. As mentioned above, the company flip-flops all the time in that it previously published Machine Games woke-fest of Wolfenstein titles (like The New Colossus and Young Blood) to titles like id Software’s Doom: Eternal that triggered SJWs due to the “mortally challenge” saying.
Lastly, Bethesda or ZeniMax have not issued out a statement on whether or not someone will replace Robert Trump, but right now, we know that the company is claiming it wouldn’t be where it is today without Donald Trump’s younger brother.
