I think the lesson is don't make a game at a large corporation. Especially in the US.

The lesson I’ve learned from years of layoffs is you’re getting paid and then laid off no matter what, just do the barest minimum to min/max your financial return.

I dunno the folks who made Larian a smash hit have done pretty well

Might be a bit about *which* corporation you make a good game for

Certified NetEase moment lol. Square turned over the English server of the gacha I play to them and they used ChatGPT to translate from Japanese. When there was outroar over that they started soliciting volunteers to fix it, to be paid in in-game currency

you need to make them a Fortnite or the CEO will personally go to the houses of everyone who works for them and break their arms

in my search bar being like "how can i make the whole industry like RGG that keeps their staff and accepts to make games that do not take 6+ years to make"

The only safe answer is to just not make games. Which is horrifying.

Indie games. Away from publishers.

That's my guess, at any rate.

cosmonaut marcus talked about how his comic shop was cleared out because marvel rivals made everyone buy comic books. so naturally, the entire team that made it got the boot

The lesson here is to make a union so that unfair layoffs don’t happen, lol

i feel like the executives likely have the same level of brainworms high up tech people across the board have. they probably a) don't even know much about games and b) see the creative workforce in general as infinitely expendable esp because they're all drinking the AI koolaid or things like it
