Anyone paying attention saw this coming for a long time now. Still sad to see it happen and I hope the best for those that lost their jobs.

Im not incredibly upset... the talent who made the games they listed are already gone. But its just the sign of the times. American/western gaming is on life support

The talent didn’t vanish, it moved. A lot of it went to smaller studios, and that’s where some of the best western games of the last few years came from: Baldur’s Gate 3, Hades II, Clair Obscur. The big publishers are struggling. Western gaming isn’t.

Eastern gaming ain't doing much better. People just idolize it because it's not the home team.

You're so wrong. Capcom, Fromsoft, square enix, shift up, pearl abyss, Nintendo, Sega/Atlus have been on a massive streak.
