Agreed with you OP.

Fruity shitty dev crying a river over AI or losing their jobs because they make shitty games nobody bought. A failing business doesn't have the right to continue to exist. Let better studios take over.

The very reason those talentless parasites lose their job is coz gaming industry is one of most competetive business on the globe, for every failed game there are 10 other ones hoping we spend our hard earned money on.
If those fkers were rewarded and kept their job(talking as a whole studio, not singular person who could be at no fault obviously) then that would mean something is wrong.
Luckily thats a sign world is healing, sick cancerous parts are getting rid of, many left but night is still young

Hoping hermen is let go before year ends, after all

I don't give a damn about video game developers. I don't care about them as human beings, their well being, their jobs, their pay, their families, their lively hood. I don't care about lay offs, AI, Unions, crunch, sexual harassment or studio shutdowns.

I as a consumer only care about one thing: Is this game fun? I don't care about gaming as a medium out side of of me consuming it and I am sick of all the belly aching about game developers on the internet. To any and all game developers, get back in the kitchen and make me another game.

I'm a game dev.
Fuck you too.

Team Microsoft Xbox would like to offer you the job, we welcome you with open arms

How close are you to your new CEO?

Wish u well, bro, hopefully not in EA/Ubisoft nor any studio under microsoft or sony, even better not in any western AAA studio, just to be on a safer side

"I don't care about... Studio shutdowns."

So if the maker of your favourite game shutdown you wouldn't care? Huh

Some of the things you listed will have a direct effect on you "consuming it".

He is essentially saying "I don't care *until it effects me*"

It's unfortunately how a lot of people currently view life, relationships, social issues, politics, etc. you name it.

People tend to leave out the second half of the statement to sound cool or edgy, or both.

 

[PlayStaytion]

Yeah, OP sounds a bit psychopathic. No one is asking you to do anything, but I think having some empathy is just a human thing.

Especially there are million ways to screw up the game you're working on. We have seen many based unpaid comments equivalent to years of experience as a CEO. The industry actually is created this way at least since the original XBOX.

So what do you do for a living?

 

[FingerBang]

They will attack you relentlessly, because you're right. This is absolutely the only sane attitude. You should only care about your own interests. The same way people should not be ashamed to start businesses for money, instead of constantly make up shit to look virtuous.

I'm more sympathetic with the builders having to stay under the sun for 8 hours a day with 40 degrees Celsius... who am I kidding and don't really care about them too.

Usually they get forced to retire from their health condition for working many years under the sun. These guys are heroes, they wouldn't mind building the next skyscraper if their body says yes.

He must be a heart surgeon or child cancer researcher? Nothing else would excuse that incredible display of self importance and ignorance.
