I’m willing to bet my ass that gamers cheering for the ubisoft layoff will be complaining about the “good old time” of AAA studio in a couple of years. Spoiler: devs are losing their jobs, not executives.
Well they aren’t cheering for the employees who are laid off. It’s more like the Luigi killing of the murderer uhc exec. The people weren’t happy the exec was dead but that the protection they felt as a CEO was broken.
Same with Ubisoft they have been behaving badly for so long., EA as well, the gamers just want change for the better and layoffs signal that change
The thing is, when you side with the anti-woke crowd, you make them feel legitimate. The latest AC game wasn’t even out and gamers were crushing it because “black samurai” and “women”.
Also, people are praising Steam, who has under 100 employees, takes 30% of the price of EVERY GAMES SOLD, and doesn’t let you own you games, but bashing studios (purely greedy capitalist business too, we agree) with thousands of employees who in the end are mostly passionate devs… That doesn’t make much sens to me and sadly, in the end it’s always devs that will pay for executive’s bad decision.

One is releasing a good product and the other don’t? Most people care for their money spend.
And this is the sad reality of Dev will suffer over executive decisions good or bad.
Despite the fact that the industry has responded over and over again, just make good games and the gamers will play. But also sadly make bad games and gamers support that too soooo?
