I think I'm onto something here (apologies if there's any mistake)...

I noticed that Wu achieved "Charismatic" at 26th Dec 2012 5:22:51 AM, and completed Virmire(Council Legion of Merit) at 26th Dec 2012 6:31:56 AM. The Charismatic achievement itself is awarded when you managed to defuse the Wrex situation, or make Saren commit suicide. Assuming she didn't reload a save just to achieve "Charismatic", that means she has Wrex alive in her ME3 save. Coupled with the fact that she boasted that she killed Mordin, that means that Brianna betrayed both Mordin AND Wrex in ME3, and betraying Wrex means she's losing out on a large amount of War Assets. On top of being a dumb in-game decision, that act of betrayal is considered a form of heresy by most Mass Effect fans.

What's interesting, though, is how this act of betrayal mirrors how Wu treated her subordinates in the development of Revolution 60.

bit of a sperg out, but what's even worse is as someone else has said it's all completely unnecessary. Rightly or Wrongly, you get the same/better results in the game playing as the non-douchenozzle Paragon route as being full bastard Renegade. I've never even played 3 as a Renegade, partially because of just how horrendous to a long term fan the betrayals of various characters are.

I think it just confirms what we already know of Wu that she'd rather play a game needless backstabbing her closest allies than work with them to get ahead

It certainly is representative of Wu's leadership, I'll give it that.

Even if you don't care about the characters, backstabbing people left and right isn't the smartest thing to do. Especially the third game, where you need allies if you want the best outcome.

Now when I think about it, the characters in Rev 60 kinda acts like Renegade Shepard all the time.

I think Brianna's idea of a "tough and independent" character means being a huge, self-centred dickhead to everyone might not agree with what you have to say. Rather than working with people to come to a solution, Brianna just forces the issue and it her way.
Would a compromise yield better results and make more people happy? Yes, but Brianna won't play it that way because then she's not entirely the victor.
 
I seriously think that in her own little skewed perception of the world, Wu believes that being a good leader involves being a backstabbing bitch that constantly screws other people over and claims that it's ok because it's for "the greater good" or whatever. Like she has that "can't make omlette without breaking a few eggs" leadership mentality, only the sacrifices she makes benifit her and her alone. I mean shit, back when she actually had a company she basically kept screwing over every single employee she had until they all got frustrated and left her little hellhole to actually do something with their lives, and yet Wu believes she's done nothing wrong and is still an amazing leader. Though that's probably just her narcissism at work.

Is there anybody at GSX anymore other than the Wu's and "Natalie"?

Actual employees, of course not. But there's probably some desperate, impoverished third-world coder Brianna hired on the internet to finish the coding for the game. And if you think there's anything problematic about that, you're just Gamergate's latest host body.

Last time she whined about the Fallout series (which was many months ago), she was complaining that in Fallout: NV there was too much emphasis on FPS combat gameplay mechanics that catered to "dudebro gamers" and no inclusion of non-violent gameplay mechanics, like crafting healing items and potions, which would appeal to "girl gamers".

That was Anita iirc, she said that during the Bethesda conference, she also said that Doom was "extremely violent" and people was calling her shit with "really???? is doom you dumb bitch what do you expect? give hugs to the demons?"

Going by her achievements and setup:

1. Played Infiltrator
2. Killed Wrex
3. Left Kaidan to Die
4. Killed the Rachni Queen
5. Renegaded Saren into An Hero-ing

He also likely let the Council (who I imagine he calls 'space-n*ggers') die in the Battle Of The Citadel and installed a completely human Council.

That's okay Wu. Until last year, I thought video games were supposed to be forms of entertainment, and I hadn't realized I should feel ashamed that games I liked didn't appeal to every single possible demographic, gender, or sexual orientation and I should be outraged over the depictions of fictional characters and I should harass creators to completely overhaul what they want to make. Silly me.

That feeling that you get when you brag about riding an airplane somewhere on twitter. But if you you look at the sky you can see at least 500 other people riding planes at any given moment.
