These execs are the biggest costs these businesses have to incur. Maybe, do the industry a favour and fire yourself.

No one going to miss these publishers. They think by hoarding franchises , but firing devs who actually made these franchises great, they could ride the coattails to success. But, they need to learn the lesson that franchises only matter as long as people care about them and people only care about as long as the games are actually good. By killing studios and firing devs, you lose the ability to make great games and then, your hoarded franchises fade into irrelevance.

They all tried to do live service games and when it all fell apart, the ones who made the decisions cut loose the devs. It is really that simple. Execs were simply too optimistic about their chances of success and when their own decisions threatened their bonuses, they put someone else on the chopping block.

So, broken and buggy game with battle-pass and a perfectly functioning store from day one? Of course, a promise to fix the game with a roadmap within a week of launch. Yeah, a tremendous live service indeed.

Fuck Microsoft!

Imagine simping for a billion-dollar corporation. I mean, I love Sony games, Uncharted, Horizon, Spider-Man, but I am not going to defend them. Their lives must be really awesome, if they stoop to simping to a corporation.

Honestly, that sounds nice to me.

Is this even legal? The companies that gave money to Embracer would lose their money, instead of Embracer who is responsible for the loss. Sounds fucked up to be honest.

Why should we care about what ESA says? They are literally Game Publishers. Preservation is for the art aspects of video game, not for business interests.

Lazy dev is gonna laze.
