Nothing says good than “deeply unapproachable.”
Dev pay? That’s normal. Do CEOs count as devs? Because it’s not like they get nothing from the budget. In fact, they 100% get more than the devs.
“We want to focus more on AI. Plus, if we give you a job, three people with small penises on Twitter will accuse us of being woke, so it’s a no I’m afraid, Sarah.”
The games industry shifting in negative ways.
I was never a fan of these two trend chasers, but key parts of the gaming industry just cannot remain stagnant, and whenever change comes, it is usually

Name a game and I’ll tell you what the agenda was
We’re still waiting on that Splinter Cell remake…
That’s not possible.
Being a child doesn’t remove the political points of OLD GAMES, we were just kids. In fact, older media was decidedly more political than some of the cowardly, childish efforts we have today.

The billionaire bosses put bets on and win money based on what will fail and when.
No, it’s a decision by the companies, mostly because of American tariffs.
Too woke for the guys with the swords in their hands.
Saying that, that’s what is happening to them now because of the guys with the guns in their hands.
I know the Saudis already control 20% of EA, but still…
Enjoy the blood money. Enjoy running the company into the ground.
This move will eliminate game ownership for EA games going forward, I guarantee it.
That would have cost more than the bare minimum, though.
We have our own middle class Maga flaghumpers causing trouble here too now.
They’re going to help elect our own version of Trump during the next election.
They are greedy enough to buy entire studios with with massive multplatform games, but they are TOO GREEDY to keep them for themselves. They need that multiplatform $$$
